Donkey Kong--"Arcade Perfect" console version?

[A Black Falcon]

I seem to remember one having to beat the Arcade version of Donkey Kong in order to beat the game, Donkey Kong 64. You have to beat it to get some token to continue or something. I remember all of the levels being present but it was 9 years ago since I last played it so I may be tripping or something...

I'd completely forgotten that, but you're right... you did have to play through it. I talked about how you access it in the game earlier in this thread, but I'd forgotten that about the reward for beating it once...

I don't know if you got anything for playing Jetpac, though...
