Let's Play Donkey Kong 64 - #4. Diddy and the Mine Shaft

[Sharpie473]

.....i didnt know u didnt need 100 bananas

[Alliestump18]

Iv'e played the game,and I got Diddy up the slope!!!!!!Why can't you???

[theawesomevideoman11]

This gets me to think that why couldn't Diddy just use his special move to get up that slope, I mean it looks possible right? I wish they should have made it that way!

[EatAnOctorok]

the 100 bananas tune always scared the shit outta me.

[JackSavvy13]

Oh, what do I miss this game xD

[myklbarbosa]

OOOOOOOOOOO BA-NA-NA

[Lukefonfabre9]

a bit confusing for your reasoning, and hard to be following the same LP for me as normally I go by the person's voice, and since you have multiple LPs for the same game, you have the same voice in every one so its kinda complicated.

[SlimKirby]

@Lukefonfabre9

I've only done two LPs for this game, and the only reason why I did a 2nd one was because I wasn't completely satisfied with my original LP, not to mention that the original was also done with a webcam pointed at the tv screen, so even just visually, there is a very big difference between projects. Also, every video of the older project has "(OLD)" at the beginning of the video title to signify that it is from the old project.

[Lukefonfabre9]

@SlimKirby oookay, it just felt like you were making all kinds of references to previous points in the LP that I had heard about stuff you had done or said, etc. and I thought I remembered you getting 3 gold bananas for DK in the level in the second LP before moving onto Diddy where when I was trying to find where I left off, you had gotten 4 bananas before you moved onto Diddy in the video I found, so it just confused me

[Lukefonfabre9]

@SlimKirby I also just remembered that I remembered in one LP you had went into the mine without his move and he said the stuff about Cranky, and then in this one you get the move before you go into the mine, but they had the same video quality to me

[SlimKirby]

@Lukefonfabre9

Strangely enough, I don't think I forgot the move in either LP....maybe you are thinking of somebody else's LP? But even if it was mine, no, the different projects have completely different video, and to an extent, audio quality as well, so I honestly don't see where you are getting confused here. Also, something else to note, in the newer LP, all of the videos are over 11 minutes because the older project was done when the Youtube time limit was only 11 minutes.

[Lukefonfabre9]

@SlimKirby oooh nice, I'll keep that in mind, thanks XD

[Lukefonfabre9]

is this a THIRD DK64 LP? O.o I dunno, it just feels different than the one that I was starting to watch, I went to continue watching it but couldn't find what part I was on, or even which of your DK64 LPs I was on, I mean there are possibly hundreds of awesome games in the era of N64 and you gotta do 2-3 LPs for the same game? I'm curious why you did, don't get me wrong, its fun to watch, your videos have excellent quality, its easy to understand you as you're clear with what you say, its just..

[Megafail260]

@NimitzBass Shush!!! That's a... *very quiet voice* spoiler...

[NimitzBass]

200 bananas? What about the 201st rare banana?

[cursedclash]

@NimitzBass you ass you spoiled the surprise lol

[gamefly10]

What happens when your out of the gate and the timer runs out?

[invaderdaniela]

Oh this game was great! Full of surprises, pretty entertaining and very challenging.

My brother and I never finished, btw, because we had a nintendo 64 when it was getting out so we had to sold it to buy our first computer (I'm from Chile and it was back in 2000 or 2001 so computers were pretty expensive back then -and more useful-) And, we speak spanish so it was very difficult to understand all the explanations which made it even harder xP.

[thegriffin421]

OHHHH, BANANA...=D, i luv, how they make that sound, whenever a golden banana appears...

[AmricanGir]

3:23 What's With The Crate with the Wing on it?

[TheYoungTechnique]

9:31 - 9:39 a series of fails lol :D

[thobby120]

97 COMM-*Shot*

Epic Lp btw.

[MrStax1971]

i like how the orange guys burp

[cowlick1911]

@slimkirby i Think yugiocharged101 meant, without getting the bananna =\

[AnimeOtakuStar]

I love Diddy's mine cart level. Good times.

[Rdogg7803]

I never knew there was a TNT barrel behind me in the mine cart game.

[SuperEpicWalkthrough]

Chimpy Charge

[INEEDZALL]

@SuperEpicWalkthrough ಠ_ಠ

[pokesloab]

I like ur videos



[mariacamaya]

How Do You Down Load This Emulator?

[nubbubnub]

this game is so epic, those mine shafts and all dark roof areas, i get goose bumps thinking about this amazing level design, its like another world

[pacsonic381]

I remember 201 bananas.

[heroshadow42]

That does kinda suck, because it is possible to get up there when it's red, which would make it nice for those doing a challenge run.

[pokemonfanrock1]

dont worry guys (spoilers) he will get all bananas in each world

[THindsvids]

Spiral Walkway on a mountain on the highest level of the first world? sounds like another N64 game also made by rare. Im sure you know what it is :)

[maxchamullento]

OH BANANAH!!!

[dougbarrett619]

mine cart fun

[117Shinigami]

6:33 Double Kill!

[den9233]

2:40 i feel like a little boy who is playing banjo kazooie (music)

[SlimKirby]

@luigi64master

Did I forget? Or did you just spoil it for people?

[Rhiahl1]

@SlimKirby yea i didnt know that but o well cant wait to seewere it is :D

[SilverSonic43]

there's same much gold bananas in this game as gold brick's in lego harry potter =]

[pudimman]

man this game is dark, sometimes is hard to see

[griffinlobster]

I love the logic behind "You should have no problem with this unless you really suck at it." :P Some of those later "grab enough coins" challenges are real bitches.

I can identify with just wanting to get 100 Bananas for a Kong. Just cuz. I have felt the same way on many occasions. Uber video, SK.

[Gorgabash]

Wasn't there a timed golden banana challenge where if you used the banana ports the challenge would instantly end since it was considered cheating to use shortcuts to reach the golden banana. i can't remember.

[PhilTheLaserTagFan]

OOOOH! BANANA! Teehee, Sounds like cavemen!

[MadameWario]

You know what I realized watching this? Nintendo was kind of obsessed with the coal mine idea back in the Super NES and N64 days. They seriously put some sort of mine course in nearly every mainstream game. Now I don’t feel like they do the whole coal mine thing as much anymore, except for Wario’s Goldmine. =P It’s kind of funny actually. I can’t really think of what the craze is now though. Anyway, fantastic video as always love. =] <33 I’m almost caught up! =D

[SlimKirby]

@MadameWario

Yeah, I've noticed that too actually. Maybe Nintendo has a secret coal mine of their own and are using it in these games as inspiration? If so, it better be as pimp as Wario's Gold Mine. =P

Thanks love! Yep, you are almost there! :P

[Kid74cppp]

@SlimKirby Another craze during this time was the eel.

[super8jack1]

@SlimKirby or maybe nintendo is sponsered by a coal company and has to include mines in their games???

[UnitedStatesOfMario]

@MadameWario I also noticed this is the same with underwater related levels too (hate them SOOOO bad). At least in this game, you have unlimited underwater health.

[DaveyYzermans]

00:25 Ohh Slim, you make me nervous when you say you're not going to need that 1 coin....

[youtooberman9001]

which game came first? banjo-kazooie or this? cause damn they are very similar.

[darkmindedsith]

@youtooberman9001

I don't see why you couldn't just Google that, but I'll answer: Banjo-Kazooie was first- it came out in 1998 and DK was 1999.

[thesparta1812]

i like how funky kong was a surfer in the first two DKC games in the third DKC game he was a boat owner i think and in this game he was like the army guy Lol

[monkat7]

When you said peanut switch, I thought you said penis switch.

[TheLostSabre]

-_-

Lame joke.

[SmashMastr98]

the other 5 bananas for Diddy are at the beginning of the level

[SmashMastr98]

you sounded more excited to record when you came back to it from your pause break.

[Poyo279]

OH BANANNA!!!!!!!

[sparkypchu]

Why do you refer to Let's Plays as "projects"?

[darkmindedsith]

@sparkypchu

Because to him, they are projects...?

[SMRPG1]

I use to have problems with that minekart game with Diddy as a kid. I just kept getting hit by the TNT barrels and missing 50 coins. ;_;

[SlimKirby]

@bigger819

I was keeping that a secret, and now you spoiled it for everyone.

[bigger819]

@SlimKirby sorry but is like someting that you need to say at the first part

[Firestar77777]

2:20

Notice anything interesting?

(Hint: I typed this when there were 41 comments)

[Holydiver2107]

15:59 is the new time limit

[mrmariomike]

Damn, your lets plays are cool... how many parts do you think it will be 'till you finsh the project?

[yugiohcharged101]

Wait what happens if the time runs out for Diddy's Golden Banana, but your in the cage with the golden banana. Does the cage trap you or???

[Yoshirider1390]

@yugiohcharged101 I believe that your trapped until you get the banana.

[SlimKirby]

@yugiohcharged101

No, the gate is programmed to open and stay open once you get the banana.

[ThisTroper1]

@SlimKirby what if you were in there without grabbing the banana?

[eddypikachu]

awesome

[DanTheEnigma]

*Zelda theme plays for a second time* Diddy got the Peanut Pistols!

[DanMeister1234]

It's OK, for everyone who's played this game, their aiming sucks 1 time or another! It even happens to LPers, I've watched GNRFan's all the way through and he admitted that his aiming sucked at times. Keep up the good work, Slim and I'm looking forward to tomorrow's part. :)

[YoYoKirby1]

Hey man..... is this VC or original? I have original :P

[BigDaddyC684]

@YoYoKirby1 Nope, it's not on the virtual console yet.

[eddypikachu]

awesome

[Botan570]

so many bad memories come from the mine cart ride

[camrageek08]

ok did that only take 2 hit with diddy kong which took like 7 with dk

[SlimKirby]

@camrageek08

It depends on the type of attacks used. Some attacks do more damage than others. I may have used a weak DK attack, but a strong Diddy attack.

[banjokazooiefan4life]

Hmm a spiraling mountain walkway. Where have i seen THAT before? :P

I always loved the minecart bonus games, (except for the ACTUAL minecart bonus game), i just thought they were a nice little references to the country games.

[Odinspack33]

Wait, so Squawks has some of the Golden Bananas and keeps them hostage from you until you ride in a deadly mine-cart and collect a set amount of coins? I thought he was a good guy! :P

Great job Slim!

[NICK54222]

LOL You get squashed when you fall from a high elevation!

[Supermariofan14]

That's a mad cart ride.

[chobo500]

Banjo Kazooie reference @ 3:40

[Roboglenn387]

thought there were 201 gold bananas.

[SlimKirby]

@Roboglenn387

Shhh, that's a secret =P

[Roboglenn387]

@SlimKirby well if not me someone else was gonna say it.

[KManrules1331]

@Roboglenn387 There are technically 201 Gold bananas, but the game only thinks there are 200, hence why you can get 101% completion on this game.

[Roboglenn387]

@KManrules1331 i knew i was right, thank you for confirming it.

[CHJosh]

Yay, mine cart ride!

[bearsaremyfav]

I can't imagine a DK64 speedrun. There is so much stuff to collect, how could you possibly get a good time?

[SlimKirby]

@bearsaremyfav

It's been done

4 hours 26 minutes for a normal completion

9 hours 2 minutes for a fully complete playthrough

Speed runners are that insane.

[FilmForceStudio]

Awesome! When does the next part come out? =)

[SlimKirby]

@FilmForceStudio

1 part per day

[bamabassist1234]

I remember when this Had the BEST graphics haha

[Thatguywhoexists]

HURR DURR I SHAY FUURST HURPDURP HURR DuUR

(incase you couldnt tell im aware im not the first.)

[nickyv917]

Well, with the time limit up to fifteen minutes, 84 videos goes down to 62 videos, and with the experience of doing this before, I predict 60 videos

[MrSims589]

This brings back memorys.... I havent played this since I was 6.... Hopefully they out it on the wii virtual console soon.... btw great LP's

[teddyshapedsoap]

@MrSims589 yeah that would be cool

[MrSims589]

@teddyshapedsoap Lol Ik i would buy it right away =)

[GoodGuy42352]

great video ^^

[RockedSolid]

Wow, I find it strange how much you kept your cool through the minecart ride, despite it being chaotic both the course and it's music :P Great video, Slim!

[SlimKirby]

@RockedSolid

Well, to be fair, I can't hear very much of the music while I'm doing this, so that kinda helped. Besides, I'm a very calm LPer......except when it comes to freaking Mario Party. That's where I go crazy. :P

[123GameFreak]

@SlimKirby ONE COIN?

[Tehmuumi]

Yay another episode



[1jim3bob]

@Tehmuumi You are awesome. You didn't just say 'First'

[Tehmuumi]

@1jim3bob Nah i don't like "firsting" xD

[epicarrows]

@Tehmuumi the polite waay to say first
