Oh joy, another silly little party game. I'm starting to think Donkey Kong will never have another serious game. :(

A silly little party game.... with friggin' CRANKY KONG as a playable character!! You people must be daft!! This is like the resurrected body of the canceled Donkey Kong Racing. It's the best thing we've gotten so far (aside from Jungle Climber, but that's been out for a while).

Goodie, did you ever play Jungle Beat?

He probably wants a platformer that isn't controlled with a set of drums. I want a platformer that has Diddy, Cranky and all that other good stuff, but I'll have to settle for Barrel Blast and Jungle Climber.

You act like being controlled with drums is somehow a bad thing.

Yes, that is correct.

Yeah, non-standard controller-like things aren't very fun to play games with. :P
I'd prefer a regular GCN controller over bongos anyday.

You haven't ever played Jungle Beat.
And you hate Wii controllers too.

It ISN'T controlled with drums... which is part of the reason it sucks.

A non bongo DK game =/= automatic suck

By that logic, all DK games before Donkey Konga sucked.

And I'm sure most of you haven't even played it.
