One year after the release of ''Donkey Kong'', a [[Game & Watch]] title named ''[[Donkey Kong Circus]]'' was released. It involved Donkey Kong being captured by Mario, and forced to serve as a circus animal. Donkey Kong must juggle pineapples and avoid deadly flames while maintaining balance on a rolling barrel. The game was one of the few Game & Watch games to be in full color.

''[[Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' served as a sequel to ''Donkey Kong'', and was also released on arcade the same year, 1983. In this game, Mario is the antagonist, and captures Donkey Kong and encloses him inside a cage. Donkey's son, Donkey Kong Jr., is then given the task to save his father from Mario. The game was similar in essense to ''Donkey Kong'', as Jr. has to also reach the top of the stage in each level. Each time he does, however, Mario then flees to a different level and locks up the ape once more. To date, ''Donkey Kong Jr.'' is the only game in which Mario takes on the role of antagonist, and the objective of the game is to defeat him.
