It is still speculated exactly WHY Donkey Kong tried to kidnap Pauline: while some sources say that he took her in revenge against Mario (who had abused him) others (perhaps trying to show Mario in a more favorable light) say that Donkey Kong fell in love with the damsel-in-distress.

With the success of Donkey Kong, a second arcade game - ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' - was later released, in which the player took control of the [[Donkey Kong Jr.|title character]], in his mission to save his father from Mario. In this game, DK Jr. climbs ropes to guide keys to the cage in which his father is held, while avoiding Mario's traps. It was later released for the [[Game & Watch]].  Many suspect that Donkey Kong Jr. would eventually grow up to become the current Donkey Kong, but others suspect that today's DK is actually Donkey Kong the Third.  Further adding to the confusion is Donkey Kong Jr.'s later reappearance in [[Mario Tennis]], a paradox only equalled by Mario and [[Baby Mario]] appearing in the same game on more than one occasion.
Donkey Kong took the role of damsel-in-distress during [[Donkey Kong Jr. (arcade)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]. In this game, Mario actually kidnapped Donkey Kong (perhaps to keep him from from kidnapping Pauline) and atood guard next to his cage with a whip. In the end [[Donkey Kong Jr.]] arrived and defeated Mario to free Donkey Kong.
