    Stupid Donkey Kong. What kind of idiot names a gorilla
    "Donkey"..? That doesn't even make any sense. He should be
    named "Monkey Kong."

    Miyamoto wanted a name that meant silly or stupid, which is what "donkey" is slang for. Kong coming from King Kong. Hence "Donkey Kong." He wanted it to mean something like "stupid gorilla." Unfortunately, "stupid," isn't the first thing most people think of when they hear donkey, so the meaning was somewhat lost. The name caught on none-the-less.

    BLASPHEMY!!!

    Shigeru Miyamoto is one of the greatest game designers in the world! He's the man who created Donkey Kong, Mario, Zelda, to name a few.

    speak of is responsible for Monkey Kong, Mario, and Zelda? Wow,
