Stanley the Bugman was the protagonist of the third Donkey Kong arcade game and several Game & Watch games.

Background

Stanley's background is a mystery. In all three of his appearances he wielded a can of bug-spray as his weapon. His original appearance may have been in Green House where he was simply known as the Fumigator. In this game, he defended several plants from insects with his spray gun. Stanley later defended a greenhouse against an army of insects led by Donkey Kong in Donkey Kong 3. Stanley was armed only with a spray-gun, which he he used to take out the bugs and stun Donkey Kong in the various areas of his greenhouse. He made one more appearance, competing with Donkey Kong in the Game & Watch version of Donkey Kong 3. Stanley has not been heard from since.

Trivia

• Stanley later appeared as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Additionally, Mr. Game and Watch could use Stanley's spray-gun as one of his moves in the same game.
• He is commonly speculated to be related to Mario or Luigi, mostly due to the similar overalls.
