''Donkey Kong'' was the first title to feature [[Mario]], then portrayed as a carpenter as opposed to a plumber. In the game, heavily inspired by ''King Kong'' and the ''Popeye'' cartoon ''A Dream Walking'', he must chase Donkey Kong up the construction site of a skyscraper to rescue Pauline. The location of the game was stated at the time of its release to be real world {{iw|wikipedia|New York City}}, however later games have contradicted this with differently named urban areas implied to be one and the same, such as the [[New Donk City Hall|Metro Kingdom]] in ''Super Mario Odyssey'' and Big Ape City in ''Donkey Kong Land''. | ''Donkey Kong'' was the first title to feature [[Mario]], then portrayed as a carpenter as opposed to a plumber.
