 Donkey Kong reborn September 3, 2006
It's hard to rate a game like Donkey Kong Country, which sold chiefly on the novelty of its computer-rendered graphics back in 1994. There's still a solid platforming design underneath the flash, but it's a pretty easy romp compared to Nintendo's Mario titles. This is especially appearant now that the game is over a decade old(!) and the flash no longer holds up as well on the GBA port.
Still Rareware really did an excellent job, and their success here propelled the company to a strong supporting role on the Nintendo 64. Gameplay is on the easy side, but the levels are still a blast to play through. There are lots of varied environments and things to see, with no dull moments in sight. A fitting memorable soundtrack adds to the experience. Plus, Donkey Kong Country revitalized one of Nintendo's dormant characters, taking him from a pixelated barrel-throwing ape to a rendered, barrel-throwing ape with attitude.
Overall there's a great experience here, just one that's a bit on the easy side. The two sequels ramp up the difficulty level considerably, and together the games form a fine trilogy on the SNES.

Okay, first off I'm older than 13, I just didn't want to sign in. I got this game for my birthday long ago and it still rocks hard today. It is one of my all time favorite games. Everything is here. Saturday nights I listen to MxPx on my stereo and play this game and enjoy the nostalgia. just get it, okay?
The BEST series on the BEST system October 23, 2005

Who knew a game with primates would be so fun??? Well this is one of my favorite games of all time and thousands of others. You may ask why? Blow the dust off your Super Nintendo(if you still have it) and pop it in. Look at the beautiful character models and backgrounds as Donkey Kong is beating his chest. Listen to the brillant songs of the jungle. Still not convinced. Play the game. You'll enter a vibrant jungle world, a frozen winter world, and a polluted industry world just to name a few of the worlds in the game. Oh and if you forgot, SNES is the best system ever so you know its a good game. Nuff said.

for two months i worked on this my nephew wanted to play it one day and he erased the whole thing!!!! oh well i played all the way through except i didn't beat king k. rool yet i almost did and i didn't know he popped back up a SECOND time! i thought it was over when he popped up and he was too hard the second time maybe i got distracted? don't really know but he hits you a little too hard that time. but all the levels were excellent they put alot of work into it too and it's my second favorite next to turtles in time.
