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:
“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
“We read poetry because the poets, like ourselves, have been haunted by the inescapable tyranny of time and death; have suffered the pain of loss, and the more wearing, continuous pain of frustration and failure; and have had moods of unlooked-for release and peace. They have known and watched in themselves and others.”
—Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)
