SNES Longplay - Donkey Kong Country

  • Опубликовано: 4 май 2024
  • 101% longplay (this game has an extra %, it's a tradition with the DKC games). All bonus rooms and KONG letters are shown.
    There is a bit of a weird glitch involving the KONG letters that happens a few times throughout this longplay. Basically what happens is this: I get a certain number of KONG letters, I collect three animal tokens, I play an animal mini-game and then get taken back to the main level. When I get the next KONG letter, the game acts like I didn't get the previous KONG letters that I got before the animal mini-game! This glitch isn't game-breaking or anything, but it may confuse some people. So if you see the game acting like I didn't collect certain KONG letters, rest assured that I actually did get them.
    This was recorded on an emulator (snes9x) with a USB controller in one sitting; no save states or re-recording tools were used. I died a bunch of times during the recording, but the deaths have all been edited out, so none of them appear in the video.
    Lastly, it's probably best that I explain what I did from 1:04:21 - 1:04:32. In the level Oil Drum Alley, in one of its bonus rooms you have to get three bananas, then a barrel will appear. You then have to use that barrel to break the right wall to enter a bonus room within a bonus room (!). To do it properly you need to grab the barrel as soon as you can, then hold right while jumping. This is kind of tricky to pull off if you don't know what you're doing, so I thought I'd bring mention to it in case it confuses anyone.

I was bullied every day mercilessly, my teacher had a nervous breakdown and left the school before thanksgiving, and she was replaced by an absolute idiot. I would come home from another bad day, and once I finished my homework, put this game on and everything was ok. Such a great game, that was really an escape for me when I needed it.

      It gives the impression of it being rendered with 3d models in real time, but it's not. It's just sprites that are rendered from 3d models. And I don't even think the model files are stored on the cartridge, just the final sprites. The models were originally rendered by Nintendo or Rare and the sprites written into the game's ROM when it was compiled.

    I love Donkey Kong Country. The graphics were mindblowing and the soundtrack was ahead of its time. I think the level design often gets underappreciated. You can tell the designers put a lot of thought into every nook and cranny. I‘m a big fan of the minecart sections of the game. I‘ve decided to make my own Indie Game based on those minecart sections. Let‘s see how it goes.

      For a game that came out in 93/94 the soundtrack is very futuristic sounding to me. The bonus level music sounds kind of similar to some music you’d hear on the super Mario bros wii game. The graphics are very impressive too for a game from the early 90s. While I was team sega back then, my cousins had a Nintendo so my sister and I would visit them to play DK or Mario and they’d come to our house for Sonic and Ms Pac-Man lol.

    The graphics along with the music was the best part with Donkey kong country. The background view in each level alone is an incredible work of art. The beauty of the deep djungle, the sandy ocean sea floors, the cold shimmering crystal icy caverns. The music is stunning and perfectly balanced. Quiet and moody at times to let the feelings grasp, still paced enough to enhance your adrenaline rushes. The music alone can remind you why this game holds a special place in your heart, Donkey kong is yours and our's unforgettable childhood memories.

    The 90s were the golden age of gaming. Everything great about gaming today was laid out and perfected during the 90s. Though a lot of the stupendous 2D games (like this one) tend to get overshadowed by the incredible 3D games such as Super Mario 64 or Ocarina of Time. But despite the fact that 3D games encompass nearly every game today, 2D games still have their place. It’s like the theme of a game that is centered around guns. No matter how much it may be, there is always room for some kind of blade.

      Dude, that game was released in november 1994. Also in november 1994, the SEGA Saturn was released, SEGA's 2nd CD-based console, and after the 32-Bit-addon 32x it was SEGA's first real 32-Bit-console. .... Be honest: SEGA was on the next level already. The N64 didnt see the world before 1996 and couldnt keep up with Saturn and Playstation, it looks terrible ist most cases. When in 1998 SEGA's Dreamcast was released, the N64-games looked absolutely outdated, the Dreamcast had PC-standards at that time. I remember playing the N64 when it was brandnew and I couldnt believe how bad it was, although it was just released. Donkey Kong looked good, yes, but very late. And the SEGA Genesis did wipe the floor with the SNES with its CD-addon already, I just say "Final Fight CD".

I played the hell out of this game when I was a kid on my SNES back in the day and I loved it. one day I was alone, sitting on my parents' bed just looking at the cartridge admiring the label art or whatever. Idr exactly what happened next but somehow it fell down the part of the bed where you put the pillows. I looked all over the bed to find the game but it was gone. Like just vanished into thin air lol. I tried to find it one last time before we moved out of that house but it never popped up again. Still love this game though.

      As good as donkey kong country returns was it doesn't exactly have the same feel as the originals. Maybe I'm just nostalgia blind but the weight that you got when you bounced of a enemy in this game has not been replicated.

      DK returns is still a fantastic game though. One of the best 2D platformers I ever played.

    26:45 that's my favorite level. Because I always wanted to live in a forest. Stay in a hut, like those high ones. I imagine living with friends in one of those huts. Singing songs, swim in the lake, eat plants and bears. That must be a fun life! Getting married, and raising my kids there. Awesome life! :)

    1:44:12 não, mas essa transição da música alegre para mais agitada é um marco, meus senhores. Amo a parte também em que dar a entender que é o fim, mas ele ressuscita kakaka lembro de me estressar nessa parte. Quando consegui zerar fiquei bastante triste, pois o jogo foi tão bom e eu queria mais. Melhor jogo que já joguei

    Always loved that level as a kid. The background that changes from clean sky to whiteout as you progress through the level? That was new to me, in a video game.

      You can thank Sega for Golden Eye. The developers wanted to make a Virtua Cop clone but ended up making a limited, no jumping, FPS.

    I remember being over my buddies house one day as a kid playing this and right at the first underwater level where you get enguarde, his game died. I never heard someone yell "AW CRAP!" so loud in my life. His SNES never turned back on after that day. Also that little break in the credits where the chomps Jr is being chased by the squids never fails to make me laugh
