Each level has five plants that must be protected. Stanley must also spray Kong to force the ape to the top of the screen and complete the level. Players : 2 Control : 4-way joystick Buttons : 1 (SPRAY) - TRIVIA - Donkey Kong 3 was Nintendo's third arcade featuring the hapless ape. This game came out at the time of the big arcade game collapse. Companies such as Atari, Konami, and Taito saw a drastic reduction in sales for their arcade machines. Smaller arcade companies such as Centuri (producer of "Pleiades" and "Phoenix") simply went out of business. Although some notable games such as "Cloak and Dagger", "Track and Field", and "Elevator Action" were released, none of them had strong sales. Donkey Kong 3 was no exception to what was going on. First of all, Donkey Kong 3 changed the look of their game. Second, Instead of Mario, they now used Stanley the Exterminator (This is the only Nintendo game to feature the character of Stanley). Unfortunately, Donkey Kong 3 was not well received at the arcades and did pretty poorly in sales. It did develop a cult of games who remained loyal to the Donkey Kong series, but it never offered any serious competition. video jeux video juegos giochi videospiele.
