Donkey Kong Country is a game that will teach you how to be a gamer with a crowbar. Uncompromising, unforgiving, but once you learn it, you can fly through these levels in a beautiful flow of jumping, rolling, and barrel shenanigans.
That's a pretty apt description for all five of them, yeah. They're tough as nails, and kicked my butt as a kid, but once you learn the flow and all of the mechanics, you can fly through them so stylishly. It's a very satisfying series to learn. I can now beat this game in around an hour, and the other four in a few hours (not going for 100%), but it took me years to hone my skills to that point. And once I did, this became my favorite platformer, my second favorite franchise behind The Legend of Zelda, and DKC2 my favorite game of all time. These games are incredible, and I wouldn't have this unforgiving learning curve any other way. It's such a good time.
Between all the Zelda and now DKC, you're just playing through my childhood.
Play it loud
no kirby .... yet :)
Throw in the Metroid Games he's been doing anyone who grew up on Nintendo is getting that nostalgic itch scratched.
@@scanchannel3259 kirby's dreamland, kirby golf,... (really need sometime to check if my old snes still willing to still run for me...)

Olli
all I need is some earthbound too :)
Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, who's played DKC has gone through what you just went through. The relentless hours trying to beat the game, finding all the hidden bonus levels, dying 99% of the time, frothing in your mouth as the upbeat world music mocks your frustration.
And it's fun!
It's funny how today I can beat it in 1-2 hours (101%), back then it took my brother and me WEEKS to beat. :D
Very true. I will say though, I was surprised at how far he got into the game while it still felt like he was getting the hang of the controls lol I'm not sure how that happened
EDIT: Oh. Save states.
That man me laugh the most honest laugh I’ve laughed in a while. Perfect description of Donkey Kong Country.
My older sister and I used to play this game a lot together. She even taught me a secret about the "Stop & Go" level. If you go left as soon as you start the level, you will skip 90% of the level
OMG! 23 years I've been playing this game, and I never knew about that!
He's learning all the things we learnt and mastered back in the day. Welcome to our realms.
Can't wait for Dee to play SNES toystory or original battle toads lol
The realms of the ancient masters.
I know, right? What do you mean it doesn't make sense to have my baseball cap-wearing monkey roll off a cliff just enough to be positioned underneath a red metal bee, and proceed to inexplicably jump off thin air in one pixel-perfect and meticulously timed motion to make it to the other side of the bottomless pit that the bee was flying over? There was a letter K there, it's obvious what you need to do.

I have so much nostalgia for Donkey Kong Country, but admittedly, it is INCREDIBLY difficult, especially by today’s platforming standards. Cool to see you play it, regardless, Dee!
Well, that is true, but have you played Tropical Freeze? I think that one is the hardest in the series
Same here! These games are my childhood favorites 😍 and DKC 2 is even more challenging but even more fun I think
@@TheDogo77 hardest? Honestly i find that one the easiest from the 3
My personal order from hardest to easy
1. Donkey Kong Country
2. Donkey Kong Country Returns
3. Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze
@@darkshadical8425 Maybe I've play too much DKC 1 and 2 hehe
@@TheDogo77 ohhh okay makes sense lol
I feel like this is the perfect representation of what it would have been like if streaming was a thing back when this game first came out.
Nah it would've been even more painful back in the day. Remember, there was no way to rewind in the original version. When it was game over, it was game over. hehe
@@anowhereguy2521 yah I guess I just meant with someone who's never played it before or any of the newer one. So as blind as you could get.
Aww, true, I can imagine!
@@anowhereguy2521 Bless save states
Yeah, except half the stream would be trying to turn on the game! xD
DKC is an absolute classic. The music in it is a bomb, the atmosphere, everything.
There's a video on RUclips of that water level music on a 10 hour loop. Set it to 50% speed, then go to sleep. Like magic. 😴
I remember it being way overhyped though. I saw perfect 10/10s and 100/100s "best game ever". It only left me somewhat disappointed. One magazine did something unprecedented though. In a later issue they admitted that they were a bit too excited about the game and got too impressed about the graphics and while the game is still great, it does have its problems so they corrected the score of the game from 100/100 to 93/100. Also I was left disappointed because I saw ads that the game has over 100 levels and after I beat the game I was like "but where are rest of the levels? I'm not even half way done with them" only to realize that it was false advertising.
@@Patralgan I kinda agree with you. I love DKC but especially the first game feels a bit unpolished. It's still a solid game, but I think DKC 2 really refined the first game's mechanics. I prefer Tropical Freeze overall though, that's the one game in the series that I do think is a 10/10
That song for Stop and Go station feels like something out of Silent Hill 😉I think the OST is called Misty Menace
@@honoratushidde I agree. DKC2 took everything that made DKC1 good and made it better. And it had the better soundtrack. Also, I love how amazing the game feels, when you speedrun it. On the one side, it encourages exploration, on the other side it's an amazing speed game. Personally it's my favorite DKC, but I admit that decision might've been made through nostalgia glases.
When Tropical Freeze came out I was amazed how great it is. It's so polished, it plays so good and objectively probably the best entry in the series... but I didn't like the water levels all that much. I like speed and crispy movements, but swimming took that away to an extent and I didn't like that. DKC2 has some water levels as well that require swimming, but the movements and controls are a little tighter, it's not as bad and there are less levels that require swimming, so... yeah. 😅
Ah, Rareware. Their old classics like this are fun to go through. Conker's Bad Fur Day is a GEM.
4:02 yo bro thanks for introducing Donkey Kong Country!! When you get three animal buddies tokens, you'll enter to a bonus stage. In that stage try to get as many animal buddies as you can within the time limit. These are the buddies:
Expresso the Ostritch, Enguarde the Swordfish, and Rambi the Rhino! Greetings from Puerto Rico.
Oh and by the way if you want to get 101% you must visit every single area, plus discovering the bonus rooms!
The DKC trilogy is a classic! Just wait until you get to DKC 2. That one’s my favorite :D
It’s one of the greatest games ever made
I really, really love all five of these games, but DKC2 and Tropical Freeze are just a cut above. I think DBG would especially love Tropical Freeze if he decides to do them all. And they're reasonably short, at least.
DKC2 is also my favorite, though. It's my favorite game of all time, honestly.
totally agree mate its a must play.
I can't wait to see his first reaction to Rattle Battle.
That one moment is just magical.
I’ve been playing this game for 27 years and it never crossed my mind that CRANKY KONG IS THE ORIGINAL DONKEY KONG! You figure that out on first first play. Holy shit.
Honestly. imo the DKC SNES trilogy is one of the best trilogies in gaming history. Even the 3rd one despite the existence of kiddy kong is still incredibly fun today
"Aquatic Ambience" the song from the water level is one of my favorite pieces of music ever
Now I want him to play DK64 and react to the greatest disstrack ever made.
HE
HAS
NO
@@Zoroark_Master that's a weird way of spelling "style." Lanky would be disappointed by your sins....
@@fabuloussuperstar ho I literally forgot that after HAS it was NO and thought this person just said no (as in don’t do it)
That's why for those old games, you READ THE MANUAL!
Also, Aquatic Ambience is the best piece of music for the SNES.
It's up there but I don't have the same confidence in saying Aquatic Ambience is the best bar none, when we live in a world where Forest Interlude and Stickerbrush Symphony exist. It's a tough choice for me.
Stickerbrush Symphony for me, something claiming yet oddly slightly ethereal about it.
At 33:34 when he had to keep resetting, I laughed so hard my sides hurt. I remember watching my brothers play this and the other two DKC games for hours as a kid.
been a while since I laughed so hard, too. xD
damn I'm still recovering lol
The level of happiness (laughs) I got from this is immeasurable.
I really hope you keep this going as a series. Donkey Kong Country is the best 2D platforming game series of all time IMO, so I hope you give it a good chance, and maybe even play through the whole series of games! I know I would really enjoy watching it, so I really hope you like it.
Agree. Also, he needs the "training" lol. He seems to have not played a lot 2D games yet.
Man I’m 30 now and I played this game on the SNES non stop as a child ❤️ the soundtrack is also epic .Enjoy lad .
Man, donkey kong country's music is so well composed. Definatly one of my favourite video game soundtracks of all time. I have so much nostalgia for this game. Thank you for playing it.
It's really funny to me that Mr. Kingdom Hearts 2 Master is put in our childhood platforming game and barely passes the first level. Not in a mocking way of course, but really. Just think about the contrast.
I don’t know anyone that made it past the mine levels before. It was a monster of a level
@@fist-of-doom487 Woah, really? I didn't know so many people struggled with this game that much. I can sweep it in about an hour, easy. That's wild to me. But then others are way better at fighting games or FPSs than I ever was. It seems like a stark contrast, but interesting. I guess a lot of people aren't as used to platformers.
@@tylerlaunius7396 it’s a really stiff platformer. It doesn’t have the floaty feeling a lot of Platformers have
@@fist-of-doom487 Eh, that's subjective, for sure. It may not have as many movement options, but I think that simplicity is precisely what makes it shine so much. It doesn't need to be complex to work. And that just adds to the difficulty of mastering it, which I did throughout my childhood. To me, it's a game that feels very good, and is the best controlling platformer I've ever played. I should note that the first one is actually my least favorite of the five, so I'm saying all of this in accordance to the entire series as a whole, not just DKC1.
I don't find it stiff at all, but I understand how it can be that way at first to some. But for me, it flows nicely, and I can blast through these levels with ease, and there are a lot of tricks to how you can perform certain actions. Throwing a barrel in reverse with DK to hit an enemy behind you, riding steel kegs to blast through certain sections, rolling through chains of enemies to maximize speed, and even finding hidden warp barrels... There are a ton of secret tricks you have to learn on your own. The game doesn't hold your hand. It all just takes practice. Some people don't enjoy it, and I get that. But I love it quite a bit.
The games are quite easy and simple to me. But we can agree to disagree on this one, because I know it's a very tough game for others.
@@fist-of-doom487 I should note that there are three specific levels I still struggle with at times in DKC1. The Three Titans, as I like to call them. Those are Snow-Barrel Blast, Elevator Antics, and Tanked-Up Trouble.
I've said it once, and I'll say it again, there's nothing as simply fun or frustrating as a good platformer. And if you think this music is good, DKC2 will blow you away.
Nothing beats the soundtrack to DKC1.
Learns how to run.
Immediately forgets how to run in the next level.
One of your all-time best Nintendo videos! Say cheers to Dormammu for me.
haha
Everybody is gangsta until the mine cart starts going.
This game is going to drive him bananas, not gonna lie, i was excited to see him play this again yesterday, hope he does it eventually, there's something fun about seeing him play less serious games.
Stealing DK's bananas is serious business though.
It's not that bad if you use save states
@@thenonexistinghero I was going to say exactly this XD
This was so funny during the stream, this game Is a pretty difficult one complete, but it's so fun
Technical problems can bring great and unexpected surprises
Have a good trip to london deebee
Yes, officer! That guy over there has been trying to choke me to death... with laughter.
18:19, that was a perfect cut. I laughed so hard.
It was so funny watching you play DKC for the first time. It was a great bonus stream that day and I’m glad it became a video! 👍🏻
Hope you can play more retro games in the future! 😄
I'd love to see Dee play Chrono Trigger
Honestly, I would love to see you finish this and then play one of the new games like DKC Returns. I think you'll enjoy how different, yet similar they are
Agreed, but he should absolutely play DKC 2 before that! DKC 3 could be skipped but don’t sleep on Diddy’s Kong Quest!
@@Blucham DKC 3 is my favorite
@@Blucham Why should it be skipped? It's a great game, as is every DKC game. He should just do 1-5...if he enjoys the first one enough.
@@Ray_2112 I said “could” not “should.” And only if there were plans to jump right into the modern Gen. Between the 2 games, DKC 2 is essential, and DKC 3 has all kinds of mixed reviews and mixed feelings anyway. There are lots of people don’t like it, so it wouldn’t hurt him as much, as a streamer, to pass on it.
37:19 Literally sounds like DeeBee’s returning to monke, and it’s glorious.
One more piece of the puzzle for when he eventually plays Subspace Emissary
God, I hope he familiarizes himself with at least most of the Smash franchises in Subspace Emissary and then plays it. The reactions would be awesome
@@PedroMatos482 all is impossible since Brawl thanks to ROB.
@@alejandro_rodriguez_99 Eh, it's technically possible to get a ROB and a copy of Gyromite or Stack-Up. But regardless if he just knows who/what ROB is that's kinda enough
It's torture watching him let his second character fall out the cart also. If you have 2 characters and fall off the cart you can land back in if your quick enough.
Dee see Cranky Kong, "Is that Donkey Kong, like really old."
Nintendo: Yes, but technology, no.
I know a lot of games have really good soundtracks, but this is hands down my favorite OST
That Aquatic Ambience soundtrack is one the most legendary video game soundtracks ever made, you experiencing it for the first time brings back so many good memories for me.
I played this when I was like ... 10, and i beat it, never played it as badly as he does. Now I sound like grandpa Kong..... oof.
I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH! One of the greatest plataformers. And amazingly still hold up today. The difficulty is cool at the beginning, but man, next levels are really tough.
I'll never forget this game. It gave me the same level of frustration. Drove me "bananas". The hardest part for me was in the mountains in a snowstorm. All the background art was awesome.
Yes! The freakin’ snow levels! 🤯
I love that level! It my be my favorite level in the 1st game actually.
"The music is good, isn't it?"
Yes. Yes, it is.
I felt such relief at 7:50 when DeeBee discovered the run button. it's painful watching someone playing this without running the whole time
I have never watched any of your videos before, but seeing a first time Donkey Kong Country player is more than enough motivation for me to subscribe and see how it plays out.
Ah man this made my morning, especially those last 5 minutes of insanity. Now imagine doing this as a 7 year old back then without save states, those were the days. Almost makes me feel like Cranky!
MY BROTHER IN KONG... Two thing:
1. This is one of those platformers where speed kills. Over and over and over again. 90% of this game must be played really deliberately. Take your time.
2. ROLL-JUMP: Those items below the platforms and lead to ""certain death", you can use your ROLL to roll off the platform and do a mid-air jump while the roll is happening. This allows you to not only jump further, but you can roll off a platform, drop, and then jump out of the "pit". That's a simple technique, but one you HAVE to master for this game. It'll make a lot of things MUCH easier to contend with.
Loving these, by the way! I'm 44, and watching you go through my games from when I was a kid is so much fun. You're Metroid Prime series was great. I LOVE watching someone fall in love with a thing that I love. You really seem to be having fun and really respecting and appreciating these games. Nintendo definitely has a rep for it's type of games, and intended audiences, and whatnot. They're STILL thought of as the "kiddy" company in the industry. But there's also a reason they've been around for forever. And it's really nice to see people from outside the Nintendo community (eg, Sony, XBox, pc gamers) experiencing Ninty games from a perspective of actually giving these games a chance and enjoying them for themselves. I appreciate you, brother.
OMG watching Dee Bee playing DKC for the 1st time made me remember how frustrating was to play this as a kid again, I had the EXACT the problems with each of the levels you kept dying lol, this video is awesome. Keep bringing old school videos playing for the 1st time, so nostalgic.
Nah mate the game is amazing he just sucks at it.
Goofer comes up to him just like a goomba "IsTHat An EnEmY:O?!"
No its a 1up banana, of course its an enemy ffs!
Watching you creep around these levels slowly and cautiously is a trip! I’ve had the ins and outs of this game internalized since I was in 1st grade or so. It came out when I was in Kindergarten. I know where all kinds of secrets are, that you just strolled right past. I know little graphical details like that there are pockets of safety in the water level, between the walls and the spinning octopuses where you can just dodge them… And you didn’t use them! Its all so second nature to me, and I’m having my mind blown seeing an adult walking through this game for the first time. (Literally, WALKING! You didn’t even know how to RUN at first!)
Hope it doesn’t sound like I’m trying to tease you or anything. I’m loving this SO much!!! I really hope you continue this series!
5:21 I have to say, it's impressive that he really missed the secret cave there. I think it's harder to miss than it is to find.
Those older nintendo games often have their backstories told in the game manual. For this one, Donkey Kong had his banana horde stolen by King K. Rool and he's off to get it back
It’s harder when you have to get all secrets etc, you missed lots of them. 🤣 Donkey can also do a ground slap move. DK 2 is harder.
The rewinding to constant dying was hilarious
The editing of this episode is hilarious! And honestly, you’re doing better than I would. The game’s just hard.
I was so happy seeing you play tho game that represented most of my treasured years,if you continue this game I’ll watch until the end
All 3 games on the SNES are brutal
Between Metroid and this, it seems Dee is discovering the counterpoints to “Nintendo games are easy.”
Who wants to see him play Octo Expansion next? 😏🐙🐙🐙
And as easy as some of the 3D Zeldas like Twilight Princess are, I'd love to see him try his hand at Adventure of Link or A Link to the Past. He would definitely see the more difficult side of Zelda, haha.
Someone said inner agent 3? :p
@@tylerlaunius7396 Tbh (I know this is a very unpopular opinion) I think a lot of ALttP’s difficulty is due to the game just not aging super well, or using cheap tactics like stuffing 50 obstacles in one cramped room. I think Metroid, Octo Expansion, and perhaps even the old DKC games do a better job of being tough but fair as opposed to just purposefully trying to kill the player so their overall playtime goes up.
I’m VERY MUCH looking forward to seeing him reach Metroid Dread though, not a single boss or EMMI I got through without dying at least once to. It’s a BLAST!
@@tylerlaunius7396 Or the original Legend of Zelda game.
@@DJCalliean DKC1 has its share of cheap deaths from something you couldn't see off screen. DKC3 had it as well but not as severe. 2 is the only classic DKC I can think of that is absent of that kind of shit.
Hilarious that he muttered… “im actually enjoying this game.” As if this is a game most people dont like… like… umm hello… these games MADE THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY WHAT IT IS TODAY! Donkey Kong franchise is ICONIC.
Great vid, DeeBee! I was struck with so much nostalgia! I felt your pain of losing your friendly buddy right after getting him from a random enemy and shared your joy when you defeated a challenging level. That Minecart level ruined me as a kid too. Tree top town as well (the level you ended the video on). The timing of those moving barrels along with the automatic barrels.. many many game overs.
I do hope you continue this game some time in the future!
A handy tip: you can exit a previous level you have already beaten without dying, by pressing the + and then the -- buttons (start then select). And you can hop off your friendly buddies, just press A.
I literally teared up from laughing because every gamer needs know how hard mine cart carnage is. I’m glad you made it hahaha
When the first level gives you several bonus lives, you know this game about to have its way with you.
Can't wait to see him tackle Poison Pond. That one was always a killer when I was a kid.
I also fondly remember my first mine cart level in this game. I remember how my mind was blown by the graphics, being accustomed to the NES...
Impatience born of game rage is super hard punished in the DKC games. The SNES versions, moreso.
Don't be afraid to take a few minutes and a drink of water if it starts to get to you, D. Beating the original DKC is badge of honor.
I think you’d really enjoy donkey Kong country returns, whether or not you decide to finish this game. Country returns is honestly the most SOLID and well made game I’ve ever played without being revolutionary, it’s hard to describe. Anyway the game is great
Also LOADS of returning/remade music that you’ll recognise from this :D
DK is my childhood. I Love that you are also playing it now! You will sure Love DK2 the way i do, its really the best one of all three Games 💕💕
Man this really took me back to my experience playing these when they came out. The games are hard but very satisfying to get good at - and the music is amazing!
Please continue! Can't wait to see how you play in the caverns and Fear Factory 😂
Lol Fear Factory would REALLY mess him up
Good job! I realised I have probably played the Minecart level a few thousand times, so its easy to forget how difficult it actually is
The more time passes, the funnier cranky kong gets. Truly a character ahead of his time.
Dude you should totally play all 3 and then the new ones as well. You’ll probably end up breaking your controller but it’ll be worth it for sure 😀
I just played through all of them for the first time this year and the originals hold up amazingly well. So as I’m sure you can imagine, the new ones are just that much better. Tropical freeze in particular is on my top 10 favorite games of all time I would have to say as far as gameplay goes.
I was born in 1993 and I have a sister 7 years older than me. My absolute first ever memories of video games is watching my sister play this. Many years and many games later, I still fondly remember this game. Glad you had fun, DeeBee. Hope you and your family are well ❤
IMO, DKC is all about technique and reaction time. Lots of difficult stuff can happen really fast, so you have to learn how to master the controls and understand how to handle what the game throws at you.
Don't be afraid to slow down and take things slow, such as during that one ruins level. There's a lot of techniques you can learn and use that make the game move faster. It can get to the point where you speed through a level, almost as if you were playing a Sonic game.
Take it slow and steady as you learn how to play the game, learn the techniques, and have fun.
Levels are full of secrets. In the first game it doesn't matter much as it's just for lives and there's no way to keep track of what you have and haven't done. In all the future DKC games, they unlock bonus content and are a lot of fun to go for.
EDIT:
Staying calm under pressure and taking a second to take the world in is crucial for Donkey Kong. You can be caught completely off guard and if you panic, you'll fail. You have to stay calm. It can be a bit cheap at times, but it gets better as the series progresses.
DKC2 has the most "cheap" deaths.
A couple tips: You can roll to kill most enemies, and roll of edges then jump to get better distance and hard to reach items. You can use Funky Kong to fly to previous levels to save your game.
He should just hold the run-button all the time anyways.^^
Its always great to see more people playing this game, definitely one of the kings of the SNES
Play DKC: Tropical Freeze for more modern tighter controls. Its also one of the best 2D platformer all around
Yeah! I haven't played it myself but what I've seen it's truly fantastic
Tropical Freeze is a real masterpiece.
Yes! IMO the best 2D platformer ever created
It seems he hasn't played a lot 2D games in general...DKC isn't an easy game, but the controls aren't nearly as tough as he makes it look. :D
Best platformer ever made.
Oh dang, didn't know Kena got Thanos-snapped and that's why you played DKC.
A soul for a soul
Extremely hilarious watching you play this. You are such a source of goodness in this world, keep up being you 💚
Love this game. Love this series. Happy to see someone experiencing it, and hoping this leads to a playthrough of the masterpiece that is DKC: Tropical Freeze.
The DKC games were my favorite as a child! This made me so happy to see you play it, hope to see more but I know you’re a very busy man. Much love ❤️
Love DKC series & seeing a new player like him play it & figure it out brings a sense of joy. When they catch feels for the music. Watchin em when the difficulty kicks in - priceless
Great video!!! And you did great. Although Diddy was masacred at minute 33 lol
Oh deebee such a laugh, you got stuck and died in the same places I did all them years ago, and were just as frustrated as I was and screaming at the telly! X
This really made my evening. DKC is my favourite series! I especially love the second game.
Any intention on perhaps checking out the sequels when you finish this one?
The mine cart part is making me laugh so much. I remember playing this with my cousin and we died so much on that level. Brilliant game.
I spent so many countless hours playing this game as a kid and never got past the 2nd world. I finally beat it at the beginning of quarantine. I know the struggle and it’s real.
This reminds me of Battletoads
The hours we spent trying to beat that game, good times. I enjoy games that reward skill and if you die, you know it was your fault and not the games
It's made by the same people as battletoads. Rare
For your first time playing, you did very well. I played this game when it first released and the graphics blew my mind. The music is amazing.
The old kong is Cranky Kong, and used to be the original Donkey Kong, yeah.
Glad to see you tackling this game DB, if you enjoy this one, its sequel DKC2 (probably my favorite game of all time) takes the looks, gameplay and music to 11! Hope to see you play through it too!
One of the KEY mechanics of DKC is the midair jump. If you roll off a ledge you can jump midair. Mastering this technique is crucial.
It's interesting to see Deebee go from rolling into every enemy at the start to never rolling into enemies by the time he gets to Vine Valley.
Watching this stream was the best retro shit I´ve ever seen! (I was almost in joy tears at some point) So much fun (and nostalgia factor), even after he started getting tired and tried to rush the later stages he played, which was obviously going to end up on piling frustration xD That said, he did quite well on some of the early-but-hard stages like the Cannon stage on world 1, and doing the entire 1st cart stage in one go after finally clearing it. That also said, him missing most secret door was causing an itching to my side, especially the one he DID reveal but failed to notice xD
I feel for you. I love this game, and played it back when I was a just a little child of like 6. Didn't beat it until I was 16. Tree Top Town, is hell. It is such a hard level. And it is where I always got stuck as a kid. It is such a nightmare.
I suggest using Funky Kong and go back to the first "world" and play though the first few levels and farm lives. It is easy to do by going into Donkey Kong's tree house at the beginning of the first level, as well as collecting three of the golden ostriches.
And when you take on Tree Top Town again, take it slow. It is the opposite of most of the levels. Timing is everything in that level.
Good luck.
I love donkey Kong so much and I’m glad to see you play it. Hopefully you play all three. 2 is my fave but they are all special
Never thought I'd see him playing my childhood! I never think about this game anymore, and haven't for over a decade, but I'll also never forget it.
It's pretty funny seeing how quickly it starts throwing random stuff at the wall to see what sticks. I forgot just how much content variety it threw at you straight out of the gates, and its pretty funny seeing your reactions to it. Had I not been a kid when I first played it I would have probably reacted the same way.
The entire Donkey Kong Country series is phenomenal. Not a single bad game in the franchise. There's 5! It'd be awesome if you played some of all of them
it's challenging for sure, once u get all mechanics down its very doable. Like rolling down and jump to get low treasures ground slam as donkey. It was one of the first games I ever played and damn have I played this game together with my brother a TON soo much nostalgia.
I would love to see him get a complete run through, would love to see him do King Crool and I wonder how he would like the OST during that fight imo it's legendary.
Seeing DBG constantly reset and die is possibly the funniest thing I've ever seen on the channel
My 5 year old daughter has just started playing video games and Donkey Kong Country is currently her favorite. Your first moments in this game remind me a lot of her playing and I can't help but find it adorable.
Yo, the whole sequence from 33:30 onwards absolutely killed me! 😂😂😂😂😂
I've got a headache from all the laughter now.....
