At the age of 13 I programmed a relatively simple version of the Game and Watch Donkey Kong Jr for the TRS-80 home computer. So I decided to give it a try and to recreate a game that I programmed in 1983. I learned that the devkitpro development environment could help me with it. So I started looking for information about creating Wii homebrew applications. That question triggered me because the month before I softmodded my Wii. A girl asked him if it would be possible to program games for the Nintendo Wii. A student of de 'hogeschool voor de kunsten' was telling about game design. Why? Because it is simply possible to do and a fun experience too! I got the trigger to start this at an information evening at my son's school. And now I programmed this version for the Wii homebrew. In 1983, I programmed my own version for the TRS-80 home computer. Donkey Kong Jr In 1982 I got my first ‘handheld’ console: the G&W Donkey Kong Jr.
