The port of Donkey Kong for the Nintendo Entertainment System is curious, because it plays better, has a much more amenable difficulty curve and is overall a bit easier to get through and enjoy it, which would make it the better version of the game to play, but somehow they missed the mark by straight up cutting one fourth of the game for whatever reason, I guess the technological advances weren't there yet but it feels weird when the loop is just three levels and it's skipping over the most unique one, the Pie Factory. So it gets knocked down for that one.
