Donkey Kong Jungle Beat

**NintendoNut** · 05-16-2005, 02:07 PM

I'm told this game is underrated. I wouldn't know because I've never played it nor do I intend to really. I felt that after playing Donkey Konga I didn't really want to do anything else with bongos. Hehe.

Whilst you discuss Jungle Beat, please take time to vote for next week's Game of the Week. Choose from the list below:

Super Mario Land
Metroid
Warioware Twisted
Pokemon Emerald

EDIT: My bad, I remember Minish cap being GotW now.

Twisted

Never played Jungle Beat. I'd rather play Donkey Konga than this one.

NN, I'm pretty sure Minish Cap has already been game of the week.

Codiekitty · 05-16-2005, 04:19 PM

It has. The screen that was used was the one with the giant acorn in it.

Where are these lemmings going? The Super Nintendo Super Shire! Hop in line and follow them there!

Extremely fun game. One of the most innovative 2D platformers in a while. Even though it didn't sell very well.

You all owe it to yourselves to at least try this game. You'll be hooked.

I vote for Super Mario Land.

That pig thing in the screen looks like it's made out of plastic.

Unless it happens to be made out of plastic, that's lame.

It looks a lot cooler in motion.

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 05-17-2005, 09:36 AM

I still have yet to play this game.

***CaptHayfever*** · 05-17-2005, 09:39 AM

Played it at GameStop a couple days ago, it's actually really fun. Not particularly hard, but still really fun.
They could use a little less on-screen instruction, but that might've just been because it was a demo.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

DELICIOUS POISON · 05-17-2005, 12:56 PM

Metroid, beeyotch. And for the record, I hate gimmick games.

PenguinMan · 05-17-2005, 01:29 PM

You all need to do yourselves a favor and buy this game. The only problem some might have is that it's too short, but do you really want to be banging on the bongoes for a long amount of time and risk blisters and crap?

Koga · 05-17-2005, 02:53 PM

What's that, Hawaiian noises? Banging on the bongos like a chimpanzee. That ain't working, that's the way to do it. Get your money for nothing and your chicks for free.

I've played a demo of this game and I for one say that this game is worth whatever trouble you have to do to get it.

***Heroine of the Dragon*** · 05-22-2005, 10:43 PM

I haven't played it... must check it out some time!!!

Pokemon Emerald just to be different. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Hmm tough choice, Super Mario Land was awesome, I remember getting a sore neck when I first got my gameboy because I would stand under a lamp and play this game for hours on end.

But on the other hand, Metroid has made me cry like a ***** on several occasions, still haven't got anywhere near to completing it.

Hmmm...

The Yoshimaster · 05-24-2005, 04:28 PM

I vote Super Mario Land.
