An SNES Acheivement October 6, 2007
Without a doubt, Donkey Kong Country is one the best SNES games ever made. It's also the best game of the Donkey Kong Country trilogy. The game itself was beyond it's time, introducing 3-D looking graphics that stunned players across the nation and the world. This has to be on Nintendo's list of greatest games. If your thinking about purchasing this game, buy it!!! But be sure to get a good deal. If you happen to own a Wii, then you've got it made. This game is available on the Virtual Console and can be purchased for 800 Points ($8). So be sure to at least try Donkey Kong Country, you're in for quite a treat!!!

#1 SNES Game Ever! July 2, 2007
#1 best, hit me if ya disagree. Love the mine ride origional!"

Fun? 5* = because of all of the fun.

Overall? 4* = cuz of all of the fun, the greatness, and dot dot dot...the only reason that it was 4 not 5 is the graphics were not in 'the upper echelon of the best usage of the system' (like donkey kong country 2 and 3 but with better game but worse graphics usage).

Killer-killer game, y'alls.

Love it!! June 14, 2007
This game is very difficult, but it's sooo much fun to play!

The graphics are the best on SNES, there are plenty of bonus stuff to find and a procent system that gives a lot of replay value.

A classic game -- one of the best ever! June 12, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful

Before this game came out in the 90's I remember seeing a video about it. I knew I had to have it, and bought it immediately upon release. The graphics were absolutely stunning, and are even pretty good by today's standards. The storyline was great and the characters instant classics. And so when I got my Wii one of the first things I did was download this game--one of the best I've ever played in over 20 years of gaming.

Needless to say this excellent game has stood the test of time. It is side-scrolling--pre 3-D--but that is one of the game's strengths in my opinion. There are some incredibly difficult levels (the mine cars are very tough), but the game is not impossible to beat and provides just enough challenge to really absorb you in it. Control is fairly simple but another plus--you don't need a whole slew of button combos to master this game, just some dexterity and practice.

I would recommend this game either on the Super NES or as a virtual game for the Wii. Whereas some older games are good just for their nostalgia factor, DK Country is certainly one that can be played and enjoyed even 13 or so years after it's original release.

The Best May 7, 2007

One of the reasons I bought super Nintendo 2 years ago was for Donkey Kong, When came out I've remembered been stuck at the "mine cart" level for couple of days, but later on I've beaten the game without losing a life. This is the best Donkey Kong they ever made, second and third was okay but the main character which is DK was not playable on them. But anyway, I still play all of then among 2 dozen of others Super Nintendo games.
