Development and Release
Donkey Kong Jr. Math was developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). It was first released in Japan on December 12, 1983, and was released shortly after as JR. Math Lesson together with Donkey Kong Jr. as Nintendo's first licensed multicart (released in a bundle together with Sharp's C1 NES TV). Donkey Kong Jr. Math was released as a launch title for the NES in North America on October 18, 1985, and was also released in Europe on 1986. It is the only entry in the "Education Series" of NES games released in North America. In August 1995, the Sharp multicart was re-released separately from the C1 NES TV.
The game has been released on other platforms, including the video game Animal Crossing, which featured several NES games. In 2007, it was released for the Wii's Virtual Console on March 27, April 20, and September 3 in Japan, PAL regions, and North America respectively.

Famous quotes containing the words development and/or release:
“... work is only part of a man’s life; play, family, church, individual and group contacts, educational opportunities, the intelligent exercise of citizenship, all play a part in a well-rounded life. Workers are men and women with potentialities for mental and spiritual development as well as for physical health. We are paying the price today of having too long sidestepped all that this means to the mental, moral, and spiritual health of our nation.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the
great recoil,
And the sea grows red with the blood of the dead and reaches for his spoil—
But not till the foe has gone below or turns his prow and runs,
Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
guns!”
—John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)
