@Sartrage Actually, Michael Kelbaugh, currently President of Retro Studios, was WITH Rareware when the studio was in its prime time! (Donkey Kong Country Trilogy). Just search in the credits. ;)
This music brings me back memories and nostalgia of the original Donkey Kong Country :) This game is perfect like the original and the music in this game is great ! :D
Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great game series such as Donkey Kong Country. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
It would be cool if Rare made a Donkey Kong game for the Xbox360 :P. And not because Im a fanboy, heck I dont own one even but, just imagine Nintendo and its followers going crazy xD
Donkey Kong and all characters in it whether made by Nintendo or Rare are OWNED by Nintendo. Nintendo doesn't need Rare's permission to make these games.
What this game says to me is that Donkey fought is way through Rare to get diddy back (Diddy was created by rare) and shows that he still wants to go on and fight to the end
@bloodnivel70 Am going to have to Disagree with you I think the First game out of the series was the best. Then again I played this back in 94 also. This game brings back so many Memory's.
Boy, me and my little bro, considered gaming experts, took a while to complete this game, mainly cuz of the lack of teamwork...but we've finally done it! :)
@masterpayne4568 Y'know, I'd really hope so. This is one triumph of a game. Even harder than the original, and so many secrets. You can't deny the nostalgia, and yet unbeatable charm. I'm hoping they make a sequel, and maybe with both the Kremlins and Tiki tribe as well. I could dream .:D
@djmaster100 Yep but im just saying that at least kept DK thus preventing it from being a disaster like BK (Banjo-Kazooie) but Nuts and Bolt's is good though just awkward
@DarkGaara2007 yeah Banjo and Kazooie was good back then but Nuts and Bolts is just lamest game I ever seen. No more running around shooting eggs and swimming and all that other good stuff. I wish microsoft never did that. I been hating them since it happen. I don't even have a Xbox of 360 but I have a Wii and PS3.
Microsoft will pay for ruining one of the best video game series back in the days.
Yes blame Microsoft not Rare who haven't exactly been firing on cylinders since they jumped ship to Microsoft which is the polar opposite of what they were doing at Nintendo
@UMOExecutive Also Microsoft is trying to get Nintendo out of business. They was gonna release Golden Eye 007 the one on N64 with Rare helping Micorsoft the game will be remade for great graphic but Nintendo did not let them release it thank god Nintendo did that,
@djmaster100 1. Rare was responsible for Nuts n Bolts completely, Microsoft had very little influence on it.
2. Instead of looking at N&B as a Banjo Kazooie game, look at it as a spinoff. I find, in it's own right, it's a fantastic game with the builder, let down slightly by mundane challenges. The builder itself is so much fun.
@Rubberman202 - Cheesy voice acting would be replaced with better acting, no songs in every episode, and even get cranky's personality still like the old game. The Kremlings will make a little appearance in the episodes more than the tikis.
@superstarxalien169 Nope, not true. K. Rool and the Kremlings belong to Nintendo, so they can be used as much as Nintendo wishes. I just think they wanted to try something a little different this time around.
I love how they still keep the drums going in the background. It's like I can groove to the whole thing instead of waiting for it to loop back to the best part of the song which is the beginning in the original one.
Anyone know how to play the piano part at 1:03? I MUST know!!!
