Hey Donkey Kong is a hard game! One of the reasons why I didn't like Donkey Kong as much as a kid is because I had a hard time wrapping my head around it. I loved mazes in activity books so Pac-Man seemed like a more natural transition for me.
Even though Pac-Man is the first arcade game I ever played, Donkey Kong had to have been the second or third one. The first time I saw an arcade machine was at the front entrance at Kroger past the checkout lanes. There were three of them: Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, and Space Invaders. I don't remember if I played them all the first time I went, but I know I did the second time.
I'm planning a trip to Super Nintendo World in LA at the end of April, actually.
