The SNES versions were way better

I wish they would make a Gamecube side-scrolling Donkey Kong effort like the SNES games, just make the graphics better, retain the music quality and make more levels and longer. They included some lovely old games like the original DONKEY KONG arcade game, and a spaceman game for computer. There are big worlds, but that seems just about it. There's a lot of collecting, but the problem-solving is no fun. This series became really removed from it's huge SNES appeal.

RARES BEST GAME YET!

This game is defintely one of my favorite games for the N64. DK is back and this, he has 4 other kongs with him. The other kongs are Diddy, Lanky, Tiny, and Chunky. There is also a DK Rap before the title screen.

Each Kong's collectibles have their own color.

DK: Yellow
Diddy: Red
Lanky: Blue
Tiny: Purple
Chunky: Green

There are 7 worlds (excluding Hideout Helm). In each world you must 25 golden bananas (5 for each Kong), 2 fairys, 1 battle crown, and 500 colored Bananas (100 for each Kong).

If you don't have this game, buy it now. You'll love that action that's in it. It's definitely one of my favorite games ever. You'll get to control all 5 kongs, which is cool.

So, buy the game now.

Fun!

A simple game, tons of fun to play. I recommend it to everyone!

Good, but gets rather montamous(sp?)

This is a great platform game, don't get me wrong, but Rare made the mistake they frequently make with their games: THERE IS TOO MUCH COLLECTING AND NOT ENOUGH ACTION. I got tired of trying to get every banana, coin, and blueprint that the game had to offer. The bosses are too easy.

This is basically a kids game that tries to confuse a long game with a boring game.

Too little, too late

Just a bigger Banjo Kazooie. Why is it that Nintendo releases a game system and then has so little respect for its customers that it releases only 1 major Mario game (not counting Mario Kart or anything like that, we're talkin real games here), only 1 Zelda game, and so little of anything else (No Metroid, No Kid Icarus, etc.) and then designs an all new system that they expect customers to buy? I for one am tired of it. This is a cute game, a fun game, but not considerably more fun than a game like Pac Man World on the Playstation or any of the dozens of other titles that appear on the Playstation while Nintendo SLOOOWLY releases expensive carts, and nowhere near as great as Mario64 was. The next time Nintendo releases a game system, I'll wait until theres a few games to buy rather than have to endure two or three years worth of good games ONLY during Xmas season.

It's very fun, but it isn't really a DK game in nature...

If this game was more like the Donkey Kong Country series released on the SNES, then it would be a masterpiece. It's true that it has several of the DKC basics, including several monsters, massive bosses, the Kong Family-Donkey, Diddy, Candy, Funky, Cranky, and Wrinkly, as well as newly introduced members Chunky (Kiddy's brother), Tiny (Dixie's sister), and Lanky (DK's second cousin). However, the game is really more like Banjo-Kazooie, which is unquestionably Nintendo and Rare's trademark N64 series. Rather than having various levels in multiple worlds to trek through in a platform adventure, we get eight massive worlds for heavy exploration. It really just isn't quite the same. As true as it is that it is fun as hell to play, it doesn't get as high an overall rating because it strays so far from the classics. However, other than that, it is highly enjoyable.

I think this game is exelent.I like it because it is'nt to hard and it is'nt to easy.But the best thing about it is the graphics.I havent seen a single pixil in the game.compared to all the other Donkey Kong games(1,2,3 for SNES)this blows them all away in a single breath.

This Nintendo 64 game is one of the best I've ever played! It has awesome graphics, levels and items. I also like it because it comes with the Nintendo 64 Expansion Pack for even more 3-D action. It is not one of those games that you will beat in a day. It is a challenging game.

Pretty good

This game is a very interesting game to say the least! It's kinda like Super Mario but with bananas and not stars. So why the 3 stars well it's just got too much going on. Banana faires, and gold medals, crowns, keys, portals, musical instruments and multi- colored bananas. I just miss the old snes Donkey Kong I guess. Where the game started out at the beginning and you fought your way to the end of the level (marked with the sign "the end") and you moved on to another level and so on. I have turned into Cranky I guess (inside joke if you own the game)
