Former Nintendo of America vice president of sales, Bruce Lowry, who helped launch the NES, has lifted the lid about the much-maligned Donkey Kong Jr. Math.
When the Nintendo Entertainment System launched in 1985, the first year of it had some major games that have stood the test of time, like Super Mario Bros, Duck Hunt, and several games that I wouldn't say held up but are certainly remembered, like Wrecking Crew, Ice Climber, and ROB the Robot's duo of Gyromite and Stack-Up. But one stands above all as the most revolutionary of all time: Donkey Kong Jr. Math, which takes the classic Donkey Kong Jr arcade game and makes it bad.
