I really like to play this. I like fighting the different boss characters in the different kingdoms. I liked the watermelon kingdom the most. The game gets more interesting as we advance into the later kingdoms.

Game is very good and liked by a multitude of players. Would highly recommend to all!!! It takes a little bit to learn moves though, but great after that.

I purchased this game for my nephew who is in 1st grade. He loves the game. The graphics are colorful, the bongo controls work great. It even works with my new Wii. Overall its an easy but good game. If you can get it for under [...] your getting a deal.

Great Game and Great Price

We got this whole package from Amazon for $19.99. That included the game and the bongos. It is a very fun game (a tad childish, but still fun).

if you like hands on games then this is for you! i purchased it at
gamestop for $9.95. it came with the game and two sets of the bongos.
in this game you help d.k. get thru levels by hitting the bongo drum.
this game is great for all ages! but to be play it you must have a nintendo gamecube

Great game!

I bought this for my kids & they love it! I myself am not one to play video games but I find this one hard to put down.

Big hit at Christmas!

I thought this game was the most innovative game i have ever played and the most fun.
I still pick up my bongo's and have a hell of a lot of fun. At first i thought it was strange, but it is a brilliant game which is very simple to use and great to master. It is such a unique game away from the standard controller and the great levels that make this nintendo game brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!
Worth getting...without a doubt!

Who'd have thought that bongos (and clapping) would be a good interface for a platformer? Not me. I played this in a store and was hooked pretty quickly.

The interface is great - multiple taps on the left bongo to go left, right to go right, and both at once to jump, along with a few other combos. You clap which makes DK clap, which sends out sound waves in a certain radius that can affect other things.

So simple, yet so good. The multipliers with the fruits are a great device -- run over a banana and it counts as one, run over 5 and they count as 5, but jump into the perfect position to clap and collect them all at once and you can score 20.

So I'm clapping and banging on the drums and it's a total blast, and I realize I'm actually working up a sweat playing the game. And like most Nintendo first-party games, the gameplay is near perfectly solid, the gameplay is set up in that toally addictive Nintendo style where you don't want to stop.
