Quick facts:
Mario wasn't even in this game, instead the hero is a cousin of Mario's named Stanley the bugman.


 
This game was released Donkey Kong Jr., but wasn´t a hit at all. In this game Donkey Kong has climbed up in some ropes in the middle of the screen. Swarms of bee´s and other insects attacks a guy named "Stanley the Bugman" which is Mario´s cousin. Stanley is armed with a insect spray that he can kill the insects with. The aim of the game is to force DK up the screen by spraying him with the insect spray. A Donkey Kong 4 was being developed but was never released.
Note: I don´t know if this can be counted as a Mario game because Mario himself doesn´t appear anywhere just his "cousin".
