Where can I find arcade version DONKEY KONG for XBox or PS2?

I've been looking for this game and it apparently doesn't exist.

Oh, sure...there's Nintendo's version of DK available on PS2, but I am talking about the arcade version with all levels, no alterations in graphics, and same game-play.

Any help whatsoever would be much appreciated.

Its a Nintendo title. There is no way an official version would be released anywhere but on a Nintendo console.

Your best bet is to wait until Nintendo's new console, the Wii, is released later this year. You will be able to download old games for a fee on it.

I remember playing Donkey Kong on the Atari 2600. That was not a Nintendo console.

I remember that. It was as fun and exciting as their grand release of Pac-Man.

The Colecovision one was actually decent, but post NES there is no way you get it outside of a Nintendo system without an emulator.
