Donkey Kong no Ongaku Asobi (Donkey Kong's Fun with Music) is a canceled game set for a release on the Nintendo Entertainment System. It would follow Donkey Kong Jr. Math as one of the edutainment games in the early Donkey Kong series.
Donkey Kong no Ongaku Asobi, had it been released, would star the cast of the original Donkey Kong, as well as series newcomer Donkey Kong Jr. Its prototype featured two modes, Music Quiz and Donkey Band. Music Quiz would seem to involve making the guitarist Donkey Kong play displayed notes by hammering piano keys with Mario and Pauline, while Donkey Band may have been a composition mode (perhaps not unlike that featured in Mario Paint) known to feature DK on guitar once more, as well as Donkey Kong Jr. playing drums, Mario playing a grand piano, and Pauline as a vocalist. It never surfaced, and seems to have only been announced in 1983 in a Japanese gaming magazine.[1]

- Years later, another Donkey Kong music game, Donkey Konga, would be released for the Nintendo GameCube, sparking a whole Donkey Konga trilogy. Whether or not Donkey Kong no Ongaku Asobi and Donkey Konga have any relation, though, is unknown.
