I call myself a Nintendo fan, but having only being introduced to them with the N64 when I was 8 it would appear I've missed loads of gems from the SNES even GB platforms! Shame on me. ReZ ftw. Everything he says in regards to DKC on the SNES is Gospel. My reaction:

dazzybee Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 Can't believe nintendo took them all down from the eshop... Tempted to get this game but can't justify it. Still have the Wii version to get all the kong letters on!

People presumed they'd be doing some kind of trilogy release. Hope they release them again. I remember completing the original Donkey Kong Country BEFORE i got it for christmas, when my parents went out I opened the present, played it, wrapped it back up. Spent after christmas getting to 105%. Got an awesome CD with it too.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 Aneres11 said: Gutted. Wonder why they disappeared. There has still been no official reason why they took them down. Most think it has something to do with Rare/Microsoft, as the Rare logo still appears at the start of the game. At least we got notice when ours were getting taken down. The poor yanks didn't and then the games just vanished from their VC shops.
flameboy Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) Interesting fact I'm allergic to Banana's but love Donkey Kong. Downloaded the GB version to play, the one based on the arcade game that extrapolates that idea and makes a ton more levels and ideas along the way. Really enjoying all things Donkey Kong at the moment that's not Returns as haven't picked it up as of yet. Edited May 31, 2013 by flameboy

ReZourceman Posted June 1, 2013 Posted June 1, 2013 tapedeck said: Did you do more? I certainly planned on doing more, as there is Day Zero and Day One of DKCR (Here is day zero, but its not as good) But then...I didn't do more. For whatever reason. Kaepora_Gaebora said: Are you using an Xbox to balance a Wii, ps3 and...another Xbox there?! Extraordinary! At that point (and since....with the exception of Halo 4), I never play/ed XBOX360. The XBOX360 was there to give the extra two or so inches needed for the PS3 cable to reach the TV. I think the XBOX360 HD-DVD drive was simply there as a reminder that people make mistakes.

I'm still unconvinced that the logo was the issue. Surely Nintendo would just remove the "startup' fanfare? As far as I'm aware that is the only place the Rareware logo was obvious. Reveal hidden contents However, Nintendo did see fit to edit Waverace64 when the Kawasaki etc. deals had expired. Although they would have probably had easier access to the original code. I think there may be more going on than meets the eye... Edited June 2, 2013 by tapedeck
Kaepora_Gaebora Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 I was looking forward to coming on here to boast about completing the game this morning, I was at 98% and then Reveal hidden contents that I would complete a DK game with 100%! No sooner had I beaten every level, including the cloud ones, than I unlocked a mirror mode which gives you no Diddy and only one heart per level! Brutal, so did the first level and now on 101% complete. Never got this far on the Wii version so didn't realise a mirror mode happened. Just when I was ready to shake hands with DK and thank him for another cracking game, even more to do to get a full completion! Anyone know what % is officially complete on this game?
welsh_gamer Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Reveal hidden contents If you're playing in 'Original' mode you have to collect all the KONG letters and finish all those Orb levels and the Golden Temple to access it, but if you're playing the 'New' mode you have the option to purchase the Orbs in Cranky's shop, so you don't have to collect all the letters. Defeated the final boss yesterday after playing the game in 'Original' mode, so I was a bit annoyed when I couldn't play the 3DS exclusive levels straight away. Only a couple more KONG letters to collect though!
Aneres11 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Well this game certainly spikes the difficulty up in the later worlds. I have spent the last 40 minutes just getting past 2 levels! I like the challenge, but got pretty pissed off with it I won't lie!

Wait till you play some of the 'Orb' levels, if you decide to collect all the KONG letters. One of them took me a lot longer than 40 mins to complete!! Anywhoo, played through the 3DS exclusive world last night. Really enjoyable stuff, and a few new elements in some of them. If Retro can't work on a sequel, I'm sure Monster can!
