Perhaps that's because Kong's solo efforts have almost never broken Donkey Kong Country's mould, a mould that Mario helped set. Even then, though, Kong still came in last to the plumber, shifting fewer than half the units Super Mario World did. It's been nearly twenty years since a Donkey Kong game was actually at the front of the pack, with Donkey Kong Country on the SNES pioneering the use of pre-rendered three-dimensional graphics in video games and selling 9 million copies during the SNES's lifetime. Donkey Kong's always been a Nintendo second-stringer, doomed to live in the shadow of the Jumpman he once antagonised.
