OK, just for record day!

Video game trivia quiz speed-thread!

Rules:
  1. Host will ask any question about any video game. The questions better be answerable and searchable!
  2. Anyone can answer any time.
  3. Searching the web or any other material is allowed and encouraged! The goal is to get it going fast.
  4. Once a correct answer is given, the host will ask the next question.
  5. No point tallies are to be kept until record day is over.
  6. If the host has not been active in 15 minutes - someone else can and should become the host. This rule is intended to keep things going.
  7. Please keep the questions numbered (in case someone wants to count the points at the end of the day).
I will start, but someone will have to continue, because I will be leaving for almost the entire day in just 30 minutes LOOOOOL.

Q1. Which of the game's enemies can be seen on the title screen of the DOS game Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion?

Do you mean Donkey Kong? I understand he didn't have his name at first, but definitely got it at some point in the game's lifecycle.
