Has anyone else heard Mario called this? I did some research and found that Mario was first named 'Jumpman'. Wikipedia says:
This is something that I did not know about Mario and I find it to be very different, but it does explain where Mario and DK come in relation. |

Yeah, when Mario was in Donkey Kong, his name was 'Jumpman' instead of Mario. Then they changed it to Mario because it was more catchy or something. |

Good to know DK's backstory. I thought it was just a mindless game where you capture the princess. Honestly, I think I like it better as a mindless game. |
