Donkey Kong vs. Duke Nukem

Quote:

Donkey Kong
Donkey Kong made his first appearance as the titular character of the 1981 arcade game Donkey Kong alongside protagonist Mario (then known as "Jumpman") and damsel in distress, the Lady (later renamed Pauline). As Jumpman, the player must reach Donkey Kong at the top of each stage, where he is holding the Lady captive. Donkey Kong attempts to hinder the player's progress by throwing barrels, springs, and other objects towards Jumpman. The ape reappeared the following year in the sequel Donkey Kong Junior, where Donkey Kong is taken captive and locked in a cage by the re-named Mario, while Donkey Kong Junior sets out to rescue him. Donkey Kong resumed his antagonistic role in Donkey Kong 3, this time the character Stanley The Bugman taking Mario's place as the protagonist. Stanley fights Donkey Kong's attempts to invade a greenhouse along with a horde of killer bees.

After Donkey Kong, Mario went on to become Nintendo's primary mascot, while Donkey Kong and his son were relegated to supporting roles and cameos such as in the arcade version of Punch-Out!!, Super Mario Kart, and the Virtual Boy game Mario's Tennis. The 1994 Game Boy version of Donkey Kong marked his re-emergence as a major character. He was redesigned, appearing with a red necktie, which sometimes bears his initials, "DK".

Duke Nukem
Duke Nukem is an action hero created by computer game developers Todd Replogle, George Broussard, Allen Blum and Scott Miller of Apogee Software (now 3D Realms). Since Duke Nukem 3D, Nukem has been voiced by voice actor Jon St. John.

Princess Peach vs. Kirby

Quote:

Princess Peach
Mario's love interest from the long-running Nintendo game franchise. Not to be confused with the other Mario gals, Pauline and Daisy, Peach was originally known in the west just as Princess Toadstool.

Kirby
First Appearance: NES, 1986. Well, he's not a marshmallow, we're pretty sure of that. And he can fly, so that knocks out solid rubber... Anyway, whatever Kirby is, he's a load of fun at parties.

He likes putting bad guys in his mouth, much like Mario's pal Yoshi... could there be a connection? Kirby looks cute enough, but he can turn plumb nasty when it comes to his arch foe, the curiously named King Dedede. He's, um, 'one tough cream puff'.
