    Donkey Kong

    Game » consists of 42 releases. Released Jul 09, 1981

    Control Jumpman (later known as Mario) and save his girlfriend, Pauline, from the evil barrel-tossing gorilla known as Donkey Kong. Designed by Shigeru Miyamoto, this was the game that set the template for the platformer genre.

    Billy Mitchell is on top of the leaderboards once again.

    I mostly hated that guy who was practically sucking Mitchell's testiculars. "We're all watching it. Everyone is seeping with excitement Billy. No one is looking at anything else Billy." He needed to grow a pair.

    To be fair, I think that King of Kong was actually edited in such a way to paint Mitchell as more of a bad guy than he actually is.

    Kind of unfair to label him as a douche based on King of Kong.  That movie is fun to watch but it's pretty clear he was going to be the "antagonist" from the start so the movie would have some drama to it
     
    But he is at BEST eccentric, that much is certain.  But who is honestly surprised that the Arcade scene is full of eccentrics?

     " Mitchell evidently quit his Donkey Kong game immediately after beating Chien's mark. Asked why, Mitchell said: 'Some say I'm being cocky. Some say I'm being lazy. I say, I'm being Billy Mitchell.'    " 

    which means he's both.

    Even though I've heard many stories about Billy Mitchell's apparent douchebagginess, I have to say that "I say, I'm being Billy Mitchell" is kinda badass.

    King of Kong made me think Billy Mitchell was a dick. It was edited that way deliberately. But now I think he is pretty awesome, especially after the quote in that story.

    Most people go through their entire lives without ever getting an opportunity to drop a badass line like that.
