While there are more modern games starring Donkey Kong and friends it is the classic arcade game and the introduction to Super Mario that makes me love this gorilla protagonist. Ever since I put that first coin into his arcade game I knew I would love DK till the end of time and for me, any of these ten amazing DK gift ideas are perfect…

He once used to throw barrels and these days he gets shot out of them like a cannon. But he might not want to get into this one, especially if you have it full of coffee. I just hope it is not as big as a real barrel as that would be ridiculous.

There are hundreds of designs and items of clothing themed with various things from the DK world, but I personally like these two t-shirts the most. The first one is a little bit crazy, but the other one with its classic arcade design is just the best.

If you thought the DK Jenga game was cool you might also want to get this collectors edition Yahtzee board game. While the way you play the game isn’t that much different the fun styling might make someone enjoy it more than the classic Yahtzee game.
