NintendoDieScreaming Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT... ...I bought this game (*GASP!*) for my cousin for his 4th birthday. I asked him what he wanted, and he wanted a game for his Cube... ...much to my dismay, mind you. So I spent the money on it and got him this, along with a bongo so he can tap his little heart away. Im still pissed at having to buy him a Nintendo game, but the shriek of laughter when he opened it paid for it. He enjoys it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 Has anyone gone out and bought more than one set of bongos for this game? I saw where they sell the bongos seperate for like $30.00 but wondered if the game game was that much funner with 2 people? I'm thinking of getting a cube for Xmas specifically for the DK game. It's good fun any true gamer would enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dones Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Yes it is, but wouldn't you be better off spending that extra $30 in, say, two used or "player's choice" games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoco Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Yes it is, but wouldn't you be better off spending that extra $30 in, say, two used or "player's choice" games?And how would another game help you play DK with two players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dones Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Come on Jasoco, don't start things again LOL. You did understand what I meant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoco Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Come on Jasoco, don't start things again LOL. You did understand what I meant.No, you don't understand what moycon meant. He said he wanted to play MULTIPLAYER. You suggested he buy another game with the money. That isn't going to help him play Donkey Konga with two players now, is it?

Dones Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 You see? There you go again making a fuss over nothing. Oh well, I guess I am gonna have to spell it out for you Moycon said he is considering to buy a Gamecube just so he can play this game with a friend. He also implied he was considering buying an extra set of conga controllers. Since this is a lot money, he asks if it's worth shelling out the extra cash for this. I ask him (not you) wether it would be better to spend that extra money for a couple of extra games. PS: I never thought moycon had an evil twin brother ha ha lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sega saturn x Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 In the past i have disliked ddr with a pashion. Mainly because 1.it cost a buck to play 2.i was never any good at it 3.the songs were beyond lame But now with donky konga on the market there is finaly a rythm game i can really enjoy. I will with out a doubt be buying the game as soon as i can. Because it would apear all my complaints have been fixed. And i will enjoy every minute of it and not care what people like adrian m think nor should you. He clearly dislikes the style of game and feels he needs to insult not only the game but the people who like it. I will never understand this mind set but hey thats just me.

figgler Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I think this looks fun, but for me I think the real fun would be watching others play. My rhythm factor is absolute zero, so I know I would suck and give up. There is a short rhythm based task you have to complete in Zelda: Oracle of Ages that nearly made me smash my GBA and forsake the game forever. After no less than fifty tries, I did finally do it though. I'm sure DK would be the same - frustration through the roof. What about that upcoming DK Jungle Beat game that is supposed to use the bongos too? I wonder if you'll need some musical skills to play that..

Paralistalon Posted October 6, 2004 Author Share Posted October 6, 2004 lol @ that picture of the baby with fuzzy bongos. Anyway, the game has "We Will Rock You" by Queen.... Queen! (granted it's done by another group but it's hard to tell the difference) I only have 3 songs left to get gold on in gorilla. I have yet to try out duet mode with the computer assuming the 2nd player. I figure it should give me some new song-beat arrangements. The Mario and Zelda theme arrangements are very good.

I figure it should give me some new song-beat arrangements.It does. I tried 4 player and I sucked so badly. But it does give you new patterns I believe.

Paralistalon Posted October 7, 2004 Author Share Posted October 7, 2004 Finaly got my last gold! Those last 3 songs were: We Will Rock You Rock this Town Sing Sing Sing (with a swing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Finally got around to playing my US copy last night. Got gold first time on all monkey and chimp songs, plus I did gold Small Things and Locomotion on gorilla. From trying those two out, I'd say the level is definitely around the Japanese release level, which is quite tricky to those who have below average co-ordination Just need to buy the rest of the gorilla songs and ace them... I'm a veteran of the two Japanese releases hence the fact I breezed through the lower 2 difficulty levels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I wanted to play this at GameStop yesterday, some kid was hogging it up, didn't get to try.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Adrian don't like it cause he dont got no rhythm.... I picked this up for my son cause he surprisingly did pretty well with it. Just cant get myself to by an extra set of bongo's though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicadoo Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 We have two sets of bongos (but it was fairly difficult to find a set being sold without the game included). The challenge mode is particularly fun with two people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Target stores carry the bongo controllers seperately. I think they were $30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 Circuit City had something for $34.99, I thought it may of been the game on sale, Maybe it's just for extra controller byself. I need to go recheck I guess. I saw it for $49.99 at TRU right after. Kind of soon to think it would be on sale, but you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
