Donkey Kong: Pauline Edition

Donkey Kong: Pauline Edition

Brilliant father hacks Donkey Kong NES cart so daughter can play as Peach - video playthrough embedded below:

My three year old daughter and I play a lot of old games together. Her favorite is Donkey Kong. Two days ago, she asked me if she could play as the girl and save Mario. She’s played as Peach in Super Mario Bros. 2 and naturally just assumed she could do the same in Donkey Kong. I told her we couldn’t in that particular Mario game, she seemed really bummed out by that. So what else am I supposed to do? Now I’m up at midnight hacking the ROM, replacing Mario with Pauline. I’m using the 2010 NES Donkey Kong ROM. I’ve redrawn Mario’s frames and I swapped the palettes in the ROM.

  It’s too bad that men’s rights activist group got all upset about this.
