I am nominating this featured article for review because it has been over 10 years since its last review and there are concerns about its accuracy and comprehensiveness at Talk:Donkey Kong (video game)#FAR?. DrKay ( talk) 15:23, 12 October 2019 (UTC) reply
tl;dr: the article does need a massive overhaul. Ten Pound Hammer • ( What did I screw up now?) 21:52, 12 October 2019 (UTC) reply
John M Wolfson Just a basic run through the lead:
Donkey Kong is one of the most important games from the golden age of arcade video games as well as one of the most popular arcade games of all time.seems very PEACOCKy to me, even if it is TRUE (which I don't disbelieve). There should be something like "considered to be..." in there.
Although Nintendo's American staff was initially apprehensive, Donkey Kong succeeded commercially...Apprehensive about what? I presume about the release or the game in some fashion, but that should be made more explicit.
I'm sure I'll come up with more throughout the body, but this does need some work. –

EDIT: Additionally, originally named Mr. Video
appears nowhere else in the article and is uncited. I'll have to look at more stuff later. –
