10 Most MIND-BLOWING Things We Learned From The Nintendo Gigaleak

10. Super Donkey

One of the most intriguing things to emerge from this big bounty of hidden Nintendo goodies was the apparent existence of a cancelled Donkey Kong game, rather splendidly known as 'Super Donkey' (we hazard a guess that was a working title).

The game, which features a human character vaguely resembling Donkey Kong 3's bug-battler Stanley, is surprisingly well-formed. The unnamed protagonist clambers up onto platforms à la Ristar, can fire missiles from a jar, and even has a zany yellow and blue dog sniffing for secrets.

Oh, and there's a ground pound. Combine all this with the pastel art style, and with a bit of interpolation, it seems almost certain that this little curio eventually morphed into Yoshi's Island.
