Forget Pokemon Red and Blue, Nintendo's finally brought the secret best Game Boy game to Switch: an expanded version of Donkey Kong with 2425% more levels

Donkey Kong 94.

Pokemon Red and Blue are probably the Nintendo Switch Online additions Game Boy fans are most eager to see, but Nintendo's just brought the monochrome portable's greatest sleeper hit to the retro library with the release of Donkey Kong. Plus, they're pairing it with a similarly underappreciated Game Boy classic in Mario's Picross.

Donkey Kong, often referred to as Donkey Kong '94 by fans, is a sort of reimagining of the original 1981 arcade game. The game begins with remakes of the same four stages that made up the entirety of the arcade cabinet, but once you've cleared those the game moves to a Super Mario Bros. 3-style world map that gives you access to a total of 101 stages - a 2425% increase in content over the original game.
