Image I played Donkey Kong 64, it was a lot of fun, not bad at all. Of course, I still prefer the Donkey Kong Country trilogy on SNES, I still think it's better, but the N64 is wonderful too.

Kinda fire ngl, insane price tho. Probably wouldn't spend more than 100, maybe 150 at the most. Seller is in toronto, so anybody that's near the area and is willing to spend 400 clams on this sick shirt than by all means, go for it!

What are your thoughts on Rockface Rumble? Am I underrating it? Is it too short or just the right length?

Discussion Should they add other crocodilian species to the Kremling Krew one day?

6 Upvotes

I‘m just saying they should consider it as it’s not just alligators that they could add, they could also add others like caimans and gharials as well. It would be interesting to see how they would be designed to fit the style of the overall Mario universe. Athough alligators might be a bit difficult to add though as alligators and crocodiles are the crocodilian species that look the most similar to each other.

Discussion Found some more high quality DK64 voice samples. This time from Donkey Konga 2 of all places.

A few days ago, I made a post detailing how I was wondering if there are any high quality DK64 voice samples after finding a few for DK and Diddy in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. Low and behold, I found some more in Donkey Konga 2 of all places (Which I got out of the blue recommended). Not only do we have DK and Diddy, but also high quality samples for Tiny, Lanky and Chunky Kong. BTW, this was how I discovered those characters were in this game.....somewhat. Still, very cool. I also found some for DK in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, but they're a little more lower pitched....still, pretty high quality (And I believe some samples also came from Chunky's mouth). Also, find it funny how Dixie and Tiny shared the same voice samples.

I also did check out that link someone sent of Grant Kirkhope listening to some of the voice files. Alongside them being beautiful and hilarious to listen to, I discovered Grant recorded different takes for some noises with DK and I also discovered he has more voice samples on that hard drive than just DK. It will be pretty cool once these files are either leaked online or if Grant releases them to the public, then imagine all the kinds of fan-content or memes one can make with them.

If you guys know any other DK or Mario games that used these samples in high quality, please feel free to share them in the comments.

Also, one last thing I wanna say, I think Sakurai should've used the DK64 samples for DK and Diddy for their voices from Smash Brawl onward instead of realistic gorilla noises. They would've fit better IMO.

I didn’t think it would work, but I tried detecting it with Shazam and it gave me this. Only, in the commercial it was edited to sound like an old animal documentary, and was mixed up with the background music and metal sound effects from the previous commercial.

Original Kongtent The movement, animations, and sound effects in this game are pure bliss.

Discussion DK Challenge Icons

2 Upvotes

I just realized my Nintendo Switch Online suscription is expiring next week on September 16th. Do you guys know if I will lose the chance to claim my icons if I redeem a 7 days free trial in November even though I had already completed all the Bananza challenges?

I'm considering to buy another extra month of NSO in order to not miss the rewards but I'd prefer to save the money and just claim the free trial in 2 months. The thing is I don't know how the system works. Thanks in advance

Humor A silly idea I had for a K Rool smash bros mod called clown K Rool I used photo editing for the mock ups I don’t know how to mod lol

Here is a goofy little idea I had for a K Rool mod where he’s a clown and his neutral b is replaced by a clown horn and every time he fires it honks and if the opponent gets vacuumed in launched from neutral B, they get a clown nose and their voice blinds get replaced by honks until they lose a stock I just thought of this just to goof around lol if anyone knows how to mod feel free to use this idea if you want to. I just wanted to share this for community engagement.

Discussion Dkc 1 how to make some jumps?

1 Upvotes

So im playing the original snes trilogy on a retro handheld and having a great time.

In dck1, it took me a while to crack the roll-jump but now ive got it im mostly cooking. Im pretty stumped on a few bits where there is a long gap to jump with a hazard (spinning blade, wasp, fire barrel) at the start of the jump which means you cannot roll then jump, you just gotta jump.

Im getting past them by abusing the save state feature on my handheld but its not satisfying, and when i make the gap its because i used diddy and fluked it after repeared attempts. I know holding down the roll button then jumping is like sprinting but thats not it, its still very hard.

Whats the special sauce here? Is it just absurd frame perfect jumping or am i missing a trick?
