Amiga Longplay [211] Donkey Kong (PD)

[nincaprisun]

Sometimes I hear a very annoying voice.

[colliric]

Why does this say Bigonia?

Nintendo ported this game. My copy of the game was an "official" copy and it said "copyright 1983. Nintendo"

[DAVlDxx]

maby in 30 years everyone ask "What is a PC" ? .

[DAVlDxx]

@Mariofan2100 "What is an Amiga"" ok im old :( ..

[2FunnyVersionIV]

Donkey Kong sounds like a siren.

[Daviljoe193]

Yay, I always wanted a whistling trampoline!

[LarryBundyJr]

6:05 Killscreen coming up!

[TheDARKYOSHI64]

What the hell was that at 4:37 ???

[megamanrocks99]

@Mariofan2100 Wow,I'm TWELVE and I know what that is.

[BarbieBoy1997]

wow, no wonder my rich friends were bragging about their Amiga! this beats my Coleco in the dust!

[FriendlyFloyd7]

So what does PD stand for?

[cubex55]

@FriendlyFloyd7

Public Domain - nowadays you would say Freeware

[cubex55]

@Mariofan2100

Wikipedia is your friend ;)

[PuksisKissa]

This must be your shortest long run?

[AlcoAdrenarchy]

lol at 2:02

"Yeah! Get over here you stupid cake!... Hey! Hey were are you going??

Get back here you cake! Imma gonna get you! IMMA GONNA G... aawww :("

[Luigi84289]

Why does this look so shitty? Amiga was graphically superior to the nes. Games like Castlevania, Contra and Ninja Turtles looked awesome.

[Evilmonkey66699]

@Luigi84289 Because Donkey Kong was never offically released for the Amiga this is a fan conversion of the C64 Donkey Kong done by Atarisoft(not to be confused with the Ocean software port of DK for the c64) and it seems the person(s) who did this didn't resize the sprites and such as the Atarisoft version of DK had large/wide sprites.

[Luigi84289]

@Evilmonkey66699 A fan made this? Wow I didn't think any self respecting fan could release anything this horrible. I wouldn't.

[DragonReploidZero2]

"Video (restoring virus-destroyed file)"

Putting something like that in the credits just feels unprofessional.

[uhfnutbar1]

what BGn mean ?

[Quartrez]

@uhfnutbar1 She's swearing lol

[zagor1974]

that is the cartrige version,the cassette-version was a little bit differend

[123stephenno]

best port ever coleco sucks compared to this

[Rockman67deChapa]

I like the finale stage music.

[stringanime]

4:38 HELLO?

[DoomedDuckBabyMario]

lloks REALLY close to the officaly made by nintendo version of donkey kong for our old friend the commodor 64!

[arczibeatbox]

A mystery F11 key 8-)

[MattTheSushi]

One of the levels is a pie factory?

[reyguel]

The MAME32 emulator version is the EXACT version of the arcade. Sound, effect,music ... the whole nine. Mame32 emulator lets you play over 1000 original arcade games for free. Once i downloaded ang got the donkey kong game(and others like mortal kombat etc..) , i never went back the console route.

Long live mame32!

[CaRC1n0g3n]

Behold, Donkey Kong for the Amiga! The only game that feels the need to advertise itself while you're playing it!

[ioport]

@CaRC1n0g3n The constant text on the bottom is very annoying

[AmazingJames1987]

I have this on my old commedore, but that last stage there isn't part of it, and the one I have had slightly different sounds to it, least favorite...def the 2nd one shown, those mover things, every so often changing directions, has thrown me off a lot!, then the 2nd one, those things that bounce and drop, har har har

[nicolaj0154]

what options shall i set winua to run this game in?.

[sonicgreg]

wow they made donkey kong on everything!

[nicolaj0154]

where can i download the

c64 and amiga version?.

[MadHatter62695]

I am loving that extra level!

[AWEDDDD]

I didn't Know this game Was on Amiga

[MegaMan52]

It's missing quite a few animation frames. Even though the Amiga is a more powerful system, the NES version looks closer to being like the Arcade version. I'm not kidding, the levels are really squashed here on the Amiga and the elevators in level 3 look like something the Intellivision could handle. And the sound effects are crap compared to the NES and Arcade versions, especially in level 3.

[fayik123]

I liked the version on the c64 that was just called kong

[mario4mushies]

super mario saves pauline! this has bad graphics

[Daniel55679Games]

at 1:08, Pauline screamed MA-RI-O!!!! Lol.

[TheKid965]

That's not *all* that's unusual about Pauline... or has no one noticed that her dress is slowly disappearing the longer it takes Mario to get to her?

(And yes, having played this game back in the day, I can confirm that she will indeed end up nude if you take too long...)

[DBoy2029]

Um, could you somehow show this happening? Hey, don't look at me like that!!

[EdudeltaCollege]

I was in Bignonia at that time. Nice to see our games are still alive. In those days we converted Pharaoh's Curse, Donkey Kong, Frantic Freddie, Aztec Challenge, Zaxxon, Popeye, Bagitman for fun, no licenses or money changed hands. We did add extra levels in many of our games, but there were tricks to reach them. For example you have to collect all bonusses in Donkey Kong to get to an extra level. Also Aztec Challenge has an extra level. Bagitman has duo play.

[smeier69]

still love what you´ve done. thx mate

[bisexualbuffthug]

Shameful translation. For this game to be on the most advanced computer in that era the sound of donkey k. stomping on the platform that supports sound like crap and the animation is too choppy. This is a 16-bit machine people!!!! Out of a 10 i give this a 3 rating. Junk it!

[ChainsawGenie]

Actually, if you were to check the text at the bottom of the screen, you'd notice that this copy has already been trashed by viruses so give it (and the poster) a break. }:^)

All sound glitches aside, the extra level (and the ones in 'Donkey Kong II' and 'Champ Kong') make me wonder if there isn't a remake available that includes a level editor. It would go a long way toward rekindling some nostalgia and possibly provide a valuable 'history lesson' for the young'uns.

Here's hoping. ^_^

[VideoJunkei]

Shame they could not get cleaner sample sounds (mario running)

[Philnemba]

The extra stage looks challaging :)

[TheGameroomBlitz]

That extra stage actually looks- dare I say it?- fun!

JR

[moocher10000]

what the hell is a c64?

[ClassicTVFan82]

This looks to me like the original Commodore C64 version published by Atarisoft in 1983.

[ultimategamer1457]

Wow! An extra stage!

[ClassicTVFan82]

What a good job on this!

[olllj]

long way to go, mario.

[presidentevilUK]

only had 4 levels, what a jip.
