If you have something to say about my decision making then say it now.


Donkey Kong Country 2 was the best out of the DKC trilogy. I enjoyed the first one as well but three was just annoying.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The way it was first worded and where it was going trickled down into a debate over Jungle Beat which we've done many times over and it always always sucks. I closed the thread because the scope of its original question of there being another DK game for cube is pretty much zilch making it pointless in addition to the crap it would have turned into. I told you that a general Donkey Kong (well DKC but whatever) discussion thread of past games and future games would be fine and you went and did that which was good, but you had to insert that little snide comment and thus here I am asking what the problem is.

It was a massive and unreasonable collect-a-thon. Make 5 characters collect bananas from all over the fucking huge map in order to make the slightest progress. Not fun.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The GBA doesn't have as many channels as the SNES does so when doing ports of SNES games to GBA you almost always lose some amount of music quality. Sometimes the only feasible way to make it work is completely redoing the music.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Jesus Christ, Synthesis. It's a joke. That game was revealed before Gamecube's first E3 in a video. It was never seen again. Noone ever got to play the game and as we all know Rare went over to Microsoft after Star Fox Adventures Dinosaur Planet. In that transition a bunch of franchises Nintendo allowed Rare to keep. Banjo Kazooie, whether you liked it or not and I certainly did, was one of those franchises Rare got to keep. Hopefully the third console game of the series will be good, but that's neither here nor there since this is a thread about Donkey Kong.

Also, I suggest that you stop with the Nintendo Mario whoring etc. haterism crap in here, Synthesis, as it always goes nowhere and is pointless. People wouldn't buy these games if they didn't enjoy them whether they were made by Nintendo or made by Rare.

and dear god why do you have Bible Black in your sig?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
