this one is not a nintendo table.... original nintendo tables are made of metal, not wood.
in fact if you look at the third picture, it is built under license

CPO looks original. I bet PCB is not donkey kong but crazy kong :D

Not sure. This could also be a Japanese built cocktail by Karateco who were licensed by Nintendo if we can believe the flyer:

I actually find these weird "dark" licensed games and bootlegs very interesting.

Take a close look (zoom) at the board-set to the left. Those look like the original Nintendo connectors IMHO. I'm pretty sure none of the Crazy Kong boards had these.

The power supply is very different though !

Took some more looks at it and what I find _REALLY_ weird is that the joystick seems to be a 2 way joystick with up-down movement !?!?!?!?!?!?

The CP also is not the same as the original Nintendo cocktail. It _does_ have a typical Japanese look though, seeing the small buttons.

Here's the original, compare the CP:
