Donkey Kong Country 3: Game Over screen

[CosmicLuigiSparkler]

*door opens*

Dixie: This stinks.

Kiddy: Can you at least keep the night light on?

*door closes*

[Thompsonnw]

Time out for you monkeys!

[Revok2k2]

I was wondering... What happen if you realize the same game over melody???

[Longrod5665]

I got creeped out as a kid because of the creepy music and their EYES, anyone agree?

[20PercentRainbow]

Best game over screen eveeerr! I LOVE THIS SO MUUUCH!!

[kaiser371]

Dixie is like "You dun goofed player."

[Adrian74453]

I remember this :-)

[Keywizzle45]

OWNED!!!

[MegaMrJIN]

just hearing the background music & how the door closed on them - THAT'S DREAD CREEPY

[TheCandyYoshi]

...but Dixie isn't a baby

[IAmzMcHATIN]

@TheCandyYoshi she's the sitter and she failed at her job!

[calleharnemarkgmail]

I love my job but this makes me sad

[Stardustteen]

That still scares me since I was just 6 years old

[GamerNinjaX]

awww kiddy kongs face saddens me.

[ToxicForest]

i love the dubstep remix of this. fucking epic.

[TFreeMarioBestFriend]

Dixie's all like don't play with me by opening the door making Kiddie think your going to finally let us go and then shut the door again.

[LNERMallard]

Oh God... Dixie's making direct eye contact with me with that angry expression gave me nightmares. Whenever I got a Game Over on this game, I would IMMEDIATELY reset the console!

[xbdayx]

Making a dubstep remix of this :)

[Goldenskull62]

Wow seriously?

They traveled over many lands and oceans,

BUT THEY CAN'T ESCAPE A FRIGGIN CRIB!?!?

Wow.

[slyjose101]

Me as kid: Mommy, I can't sleep!

Mom: Why?

Me: I'm having nightmares.

Mom: Of what?

Me: The game over in Donkey Kong Country 3...

The game went in the trash and I never played it again. Until now in the full speed snes emulator for my psp I found. It's still damn creepy...

[doggone12ify]

When I think of this o think of a game over screen with a pistol's flashlight going out

[therealBER]

this song makes me think about myself and who i am

[therealBER]

@therealBER u gay

[GamerNinjaX]

@therealBER of course because everyone who has an emotional thought is not a man. I guess we men aren't supposed to have feelings, but instead party and laugh with our freinds and perv over girls like idiots. And I think that is stupid. OH YAH and if you are very smart men just brush you off. How stupid is that!!!???

[GamerNinjaX]

@therealBER thats a pretty deep way of thinking about a game over theme. but again, sticker-brush symphony almost made me teary eyed.

[brandon2003alt]

fun blocks

[ARGX47]

can someone explain to me what im not getting here because i really don't understand this

[ZelseCarmagh]

This is far better than being closed to starve and rotten to death in a cell, or being brutaly wounded and all alone over a dark screen with heart killer songs. Lucky you! Egoist bastards.

[Lemileant]

The bouncing blocks spelled gvgaegorvrooeagogvgaegoeraeovr­

[mads1225]

LOL! "And finally the most depressing and scary game over of the 3...". WHAT THE FUCK???? This is not to the closet of scary... Made me laugh...

[PhluppeHimself]

This game is more sad than the death of my sister's aborted fetus.

[Animatic121]

Now I hate to nitpick, but look at Tiny Kong. She's, like, 5 or 6 (I consider the older look noncanon) and Dixie is her older sister, and, on top of that, Diddy's girlfriend (this has been confirmed). So, why is she locked up in a crib?

[MarioFanLevelz]

DKC 1: They got injuried and can't continue.

DKC 2: They got caught in a cell and they can't continue.

DKC 3: Kiddie has a cute face. Clearly they can't continue anymore.

[UniversalPsycho]

K. Rool: You're both grounded, now stay in your room!

[GunbladeRevolver]

Dixie has that look like "I could've been at the beach relaxing, and enjoying a banana smoothie but NO I had to play the nice one and babysit this big oaf. NOW LOOK WHAT HAPPENED!!"

[ryan9169]

Am i missing something

[SupaKoopaKid64]

Creepy, yes. Frightening, not really.

[MISSIDONT]

this game over sceen is so sad :(

[GaraOFtheeFUNK]

@N00BterminatorX That's what I thought!!!

[N00BterminatorX]

Kiddie's all like "BUT I WANT MORE GAME!"

Dixie's all like "Why did I get stuck in a game with this idiot?"

[RetroChris15]

Geez. Rare loves to rub it in your face like a bunch of dicks, for losing.

[wecatohispano]

i remember once i asked my mother why they were in a craddle and she told me they had a dream about being grown ups just like the rugrats had

[shanethefox]

The door slam still gives me shills

[lkhrizl]

dixie is not amused

[torchicguy]

I feel like I've lost a game.

[Salriella]

I have to agree that this is the most sad game over screen ever, but oh how I'd love to learn how to play this on acoustic guitar.

[galaxyguy159]

I think I hate King K. Rool now

[davidsaso1234]

i always tried to stay alive no matter what when i had only 1 life so i woudnt see that

and now that i havent even lost i get to see wtf ='(

[blakhawk999]

the comment below mine SUX!!!!

[Jutdepomme]

Dixie: Hey seriously the man who opens the door, we're not babies, stop playing this gay music.

Men who opens the door: Chhht, kiddy look like a baby, then YOU are a baby.

Dixie: I hate him!

Men who opens the door: (Shut the door, leaving them in the really dark)

Dixie: What did we do now?

Kiddy: Simply wait at the end of his video to restart the game.

Dixie: Hey, you're a kind of baby, you're not supposed to talk.

Kiddy: Oh yeah that right.

Dixie: STFU

[MrEitzpii]

Damn...i remember this as a kid when this came out playing first time o_o

It still makes me really sad :(

[OffAirProductions]

Song kinda reminds me of flyswatter by the eels....

[LNERMallard]

OMG I remember this. lol when I was 5, I always though Dixie was staring angrily at ME!! so I would always turn the console off the SECOND I lost all my lives lol good times.

[Frehely13]

Dixie: Now how did I get put in the playpen?

[Supremed9]

This song really puts me down dude.. Dark and scary :(

[Afrokoopa]

this game over screen predicted guitar hero

[RCT3Crashes100]

Dixie's expression was kinda funny to me, as she looks ashamed

[nerf233]

I feel sad for the children growing up now :'(

[mitri3d]

This didn't scare me, it made me cry!

[MrEitzpii]

This just makes me feel sad i dont know why :(.

Really dark...

[SPANK0DOOLY0HAPPY]

@yuodashima

僕、このゲーム持っていますが、ゲームオーバー画面がとても怖い­です!夜中にこんな画面が出たらトイレにも行けず、眠れませんね­・・・。あと、この画面はコントローラーのボタンでメロディを奏­でることができます。

[FlyGuy0120]

lol @ kiddy kong's powdy lip

[leopold9]

LOL gotta love dixie's angry face >.<

[CidSilverWing]

You just know this Game Over screen is TAUNTING you

[Mizpagh67]

when i was little this didn't scare me at all becuase of the music :D

[megamanfreak321]

5 people got put in the playpen

[Vianerd1]

D'awww poor Kiddy. But for some reason, Dixie's expression makes me laugh. She must feel violated, put in a playpen as if she's some little kid.

...

>:T

[Akfamilyhome]

GVGAMEGOERVEROOEAMGOGVGAMEGOEE­RAMEOVER!

[pwrstryka]

i like this game

[crisXD2010]

most depresive game over screen

[DeadRaymanWalking]

@crisXD2010 I concur.

[raidensreturn]

@crisXD2010

i think you mean depressing.

[1OneChosen2]

@crisXD2010 depressive is not a fucking word it's D.E.P.R.E.S.S.I.N.G.

[crisXD2010]

@1OneChosen2 sorry for my english i speak spanish :S

[1OneChosen2]

@crisXD2010 it's just getting on my nerves since everyone (including my friends that speak perfect english) say "depressive" when it's not a word and it doesn't make any since,sorry if I offended you in my earlier comment.

[Pugslee3]

@crisXD2010 When I was 8 years old I feared this screen!

[DeputySnowtail1]

@Pugslee3 I don't fear it, but I do wonder where they are in the Game Over Screen...an adoption center or something? lol. But this is sad, just look at Kiddy Kong's face.

[Niqoleh]

This made my cry when i was a kid :(

[pumarunner88]

Thumbs up if you find this strangely disturbing looking back on it as an adult.

[BlueKnux0]

@pumarunner88 As a kid I was disturbed by this...God. >_<!

[minslowks1]

this game was gay

[Niqoleh]

@minslowks1 You are gay

[lightninstriker10]

Guy who closes the door: Sorry monkeys, but this game is for MEN.

[TheNinwii]

what`s actually happening, i see the kongs in a crib/playpen, but i don`t really see the logic (i did not play the game)

[yuriwriter]

@TheNinwii People have different ideas on how the Game Over screen happens. Some people think the two are thrown into a crib by Funky for not being able to do their job right and not saving DK and Diddy, and some people think the Kremlings have locked them in some playroom. I vote for the 2nd.

[TheNinwii]

@yuriwriter

i agree with 2nd as well. i don`t think funky would lock em up alone in a pitch dark closet or something

[GeneralGiantPanda]

This shit gives me nightmares.

[EyeOfTimyous289]

@GeneralGiantPanda right

[nicotjuh]

For just 5 dollars a month, you could give this sad little gorilla a meal for 2 weeks

[howardmckinley2]

@nicotjuh kiddy is the size dk jr.

[TheFallenAngel407]

@nicotjuh Take my 2 free internets as well as all 600 of my Banana coins. I don't need em. Just watching this was depressin' enough!

[NintendoArielle]

Everyone here seems to think it's a crib, but I think it's a playpen since it has an abacus on the bars to play with. Plus, it's square and not rectangular like a bed would be.

Either way, this Game Over screen is hilarious. DKC1's Game Over screen was kind of plain, DKC2's was sad and a little scary, and this one is hilarious because apparently Dixie was put in the playpen with Kiddy and is pouting over it.

[GuardianofAges2007]

Kiddy: *reaches arms out* Mommy!

Dixie: Kiddy, that's not your mommy, sit down and play with your blocks...

Kiddy: *lip trembles* B-but I want mommy!

Dixie: *pouts* Sorry, can't help ya there.

Kiddy: WAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Dixie: *covers her ears* This is gonna be a long, embarassing end to our lives....ugh.

[supomariopro5]

@GuardianofAges2007 ???:dont worry i will help you!!!!

[Vianerd1]

You won't believe how many times I saw this.

[TheUkrainianDream]

It is a tad creepy, but this was my favorite Game Over screen/song.

[Alxmir23]

i love the music

[taranchula97]

Kiddy Kong: Mommy?

Dixie Kong: Mommy's not got save us, Kiddy. Now get back in the crib.

Kiddy Kong: But I wanna play with the blocks!

Dixie: I said get back in the crib!!!

[mcgiggity69]

you can actually keep that screen on if you hit a bunch of buttons I believe and you can bounce single individual blocks

[sirbrandonalottt]

@mcgiggity69 i knew that

[mcgiggity69]

@sirbrandonalottt ok, just sayin'

[Tainosan11]

wow, this is something that you get a feeling will pop up on your t.v when your sleeping, and it will scare the hell out of you. Each time i watch it, the music gets stuckin my head!

[Gunner193]

"You're too much of a kid to play this. Get back to the crib."

REAL subtle there, Rare/Nintendo...

[metakight4]

creepy ._.

[ZapperBrain]

GAME OVER YEEEEEAAAAH!

[xzoshuax]

i thought it was sad when i game over in this game

[coollink57]

Even playing game over yeeeaaah doesn't change how creepy it is.

[applejuiceZOMG]

THE BIG LIPPED BABY GORILLA MOMENT!

[gameaventer11]

oh thats a quite creepy song

[wiisalute]

I wonder who locked em in there? Wrinkly?

[gameaventer11]

its not creepy to me

[PrincessPeach777]

its so sad :(

and theyre actually safe in a crib instead of bruised up or in a dungeon cell, and its still more sad lol

[Tainosan11]

@PrincessPeach777 yea, either way it is disturbing

[TheNinwii]

@PrincessPeach777

(some kremling opens the door)

kiddy: please PLEASE take me out

Dixie: that won`t work

(closes the door)

Kiddy: maybe.. i... can... try..... again..... tomorow?

Dixie: they won`t, you`re doomed can`t you see

Kiddy: cries, while praying that it will work next time

Kiddy looks desperate to get out and makes himself cute in hope of tricking a kremling

[KrysEverett]

That is pretty stupid they shut the door leaving the kongs in the DARK. Kiddy Kong: My pride is ruined and now its dark.

[Relick666]

Awwwww.... :'(

Childhood memories, I love these gamessssssssssssssssssssssssss­sssssss

[rockmarp]

Can anyone explaine me why this is so sad?

[Tainosan11]

@rockmarp because the music scares people

[Judoon13]

Those blocks were fun to play around with, I ended up making the Mario song eventually

[JJTLS]

does anyone know the button order to repeat this theme?

[DucktheGWREngineFan9]

"After K. Rool slammed the door, he opened the door, with D.K. and Diddy. They were shoved in and the door was locked. K. Rool released the toxic gas and all four of them choked and died."

That's what I think happened after this game over.

[kojiro95]

the song vaguely reminds me of the medieval song green sleeves

[ShadowStar1224]

I don't get it. Why does everyone find this scary?

[jetstar991]

@ShadowStar1224 i know right this is really not that scary maybe they are pussies

[Babymarioluigi2]

@jetstar991 You wouldn't think that at four years of age.



[jetstar991]

@Babymarioluigi2 wow i was 4 playing DKC the game over wasnt scary ppl said it was scary EXPLAIN THAT

[Babymarioluigi2]

@jetstar991 Jesus, no need to be so rude. I'm just saying that some youngsters are more impressionable than others, and as such may find this screen sad/horrifying.

It's one of those screens that burned into my memory, and I was scared of it. But for Christ's sake, I was four years of age, back then my own damn shadow was freaky!

[Yosher21]

Alot of game over screens by Rare made kids dream hell.

[Tainosan11]

@Yosher21 i knwo, how do they come up with this stuff!

[zwijsencollegemink]

When the music stops and you push any button, the blocks are going to the top. So you can play the same song again. That´s so funny.

[Thenumber1yoshi]

Even though the one's for the previous two were darker I kind of like the fact that they added some interactivity with this Game Over screen by adding a code to be able to make those letters jump when you want them to. I mean at least thats something that makes your failure a little less harsh (though I don't know how this screen with Kiddy and Dixie in a Crib is harsh in the first place) I mean thats actually something to look forward to, I mean mess around with the Game Over screen a bit.

[XxhadoukenxX]

No dinner for you both!

*slams door*

[JosephLeeL8]

I LOVE THIS SCREEN! You can also play with the blocks.

[xzoshuax]

they kinda looked cute in the crib

[Cloaytonem2]

*opens door*

HEY THERE, KIDS! CHECK OUT THIS MUSIC BOX!

*music box plays*

OKAY, THAT'LL BE ALL!

*closes door*

[Sagakirby]

@Cloaytonem2

I lol'd,

[eggbandicoot6]

@Cloaytonem2 i want a music box like that

[alekies]

There is nothing sad about this, it's about them going off and getting in trouble, they're grounded. The third game of DK has a more Kiddie set.

[vampirekoopa]

this one i dont get did kiddy turn pussy or something

[sonicisawesome159]

This is better than the Gba version.

[Gigas0101]

on that screen, if you hit the buttons on your controller, you can play the blocks like a xylophone, didn't do a good job of lightening just how depressing and thought provoking that game over screen was. I could only see it once then I had to stop playing, that game over screen and the one from shadow of the beast defeated me entirely.

[GreenGearMood]

"GO TO SLEEP."

[Sapphirechao]

This gave me nightmares at one stage...

[zeetweet]

Jeez, I remember playing the first DKC and being soo creeped out by the game over screen, and recently I got DKC2 (GBA version) for my DS and the game over screen didn't phase me (is it different on the SNES?)... BUT THIS SCARES THE S**T OUT OF ME. I'm fairly sure I'll have nightmares now ._.

[UltamiteLifeForm360]

@zeetweet

In DKC2 original for the SNES, at first it starts normal colors then the screen turns red

[xxMTOxx]

No! Watch out for the lightning! *loses last life* I got zapped by lighting, how did I end up in a crib??

[EvilUrago]

Those Game Over screens are here to show you evil won, and there's nothing you can do to save the Kong family anymore.

[retrogamer3434]

Alright monkeys, you were naughty! Go back to your room!

[Minan3]

this game over made it look seemly like they were lost babies with cruel parents out to get them with baddies at their disposal :(

[SupaMarionSupaSonic]

@Minan3 evil parents! and i thought when i got a time out it was murder XD

[GmodCaboose56]

Even though the whole thing looks sad, Kiddy Kong looks so cute on the game over screen. :3

[Omnicloudx13]

What scared me about this ending was the way the door closes at 0:16

[EminemFan202]

I always cried when I heard this, I don't know it just made me sad

[Sparxdd]

i was okay with this comment until i read your screen name. hahaha

it's cool though, i accept you.

[EminemFan202]

@stewardo do you have any prof that I live in the suburbs?

[stewardo]

I stalk you.

[EminemFan202]

@stewardo I pity you

[ritmouse8]

you think THIS is scary? try chrono trigger's game over where you get to see the world end if you screw up at the final boss.

[yoshi934657]

when i was like 5 man i dont know why but when it showed this it would scare me and it scard me the most when it closed the door real tight

[KirbyY15]

sadest game over screen ever? thumb me up when you agree or thumb me down if you disagree

[rickyony]

@KirbyY15 Well, it may be, but the colorful game over blocks makes it a bit better.

[linkLoverAG]

@KirbyY15 no the yoshi story one is sader

[SonkleyFiz]

@KirbyY15 makes you wanna beat the game

[Cheetah1251]

@KirbyY15

Nah, the saddest Game Over ever is the Super Mario World Game Over.

[jhwink]

@KirbyY15 I'd say the ones in DKC1 and DKC2 are sadder. This is one actually a little funny (it's still creepy too though) but the first two symbolize true pain and suffering.

[KirbyY15]

@jhwink

yeah that could be true...but really i just look into that dudes eyes and that is so sad to me

[MarksterVideos]

@KirbyY15 its a scary game over screen for sure, but you know what is 10x scarier, having a DKC3 error message, it shows the game over screen in the background, and some text, it can happen in the middle of game play or when you turn on the game.

[Pehmokettu]

@MarksterVideos How that can happen in the middle of a game play? I never saw the error message when I played this game with SNES many years ago. I remember that someone saw the error message, but he/she tried to play NTSC version in the PAL version of the console with the conversion cartridge.
