disabled_by_defaultDue to increasing levels of AI scraping putting incredible strain on server resources but Cloudflare's under attack mode being a bit too heavy-handed to leave up 24/7, we're trying a new way to combat these attacks. By default, all traffic will be challenged but logged in users will bypass those challenges completely. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause as it was never our intention to try to force registration and you certainly still don't have to - passing one of those challenges should keep you in the clear for a half-hour otherwise.

@SpaceHarrier64 I theorize that the unused music in the arcade labelled "lady" was gonna be used for that cutscene, and then the devs of the Famicom version tried to convert it but due to storage price and poor storage optimization, the process was stopped

Something that could support this theory is how Pacman (which both have common inspirations for their power ups) had Intermissions
So it only makes sense DK devs would try to implement something as such

If I'm being very honest, DK's defeat sprite is much better in here than arcade, in arcade he kept his same normal pose, his face was wackier but the restricted pose made him less expressive

Evidently this version was also gonna have new items and a cutscene of mario and Pauline sitting together.

No, they didn't. It seems these were newly made for the NES version.

Did the unique falling poses not exist in the arcade version?

Donkey Kong has more sprites than he has in the arcade version.
