Nintendo ought to know better than to release something so shoddy and genuinely unpleasant to play, especially considering Nintendo practically invented this genre.

Checked back a few pages, didn't see a thread. Weird to see a game that was announced six years ago to get such a low score.

It was pointless without the bongo controllers.

Well the game was announced six years ago and in this version it doesn't even use the bongos.

Disappointing. I knew this game would be bad after they shifted it from the Bongos to the Wii controllers, but I didn't think it would be 4.5 bad.

Well they also made the great DK Jungle Climber, so I'm not going to condemn them entirely. If nothing else, they're better than Genius Sonority.

The way you play it is you have the Wii remote in one hand, the Nunchuk in the other, and go up and down in thin air like the bongos. I wonder how they thought this was a good idea.

Well, that was lower than I expected..I was expecting it to be in the 6s range.

Still, whats with the tards rating it up? :roll:

How many people screaming [QUOTE="V_Isle"]Lol another Nintendo failure. :lol:tbone29

Still a hearty dose of fail on their part, even if it doesn't qualify as a flop due to lack of an official hype.

Yup, another bad score for another Wii game. I wouldn't expect less for the Wii.

Who did N get to develop this game? And why did they let it out on the shelves?

Trust me, this game looked God awful from day one...it's been pretty much on the bottom of my list, just beat out by a swift kick in the balls.

What happened to Donkey Kong? After N64, he was viciously ripped to bits and flushed down a toilet that uses some sort of toxic element instead of water...

case in point, this is murder, pure murder, to one of the best franchises ever.

bongo games were actually decent. i played dk bongos way more than i played guitar hero. simpler, and not all the songs were rock and stuff. but this game, once i heard wasnt using the bongo, was obvsiously bad.

Don't you mean ON N64, DK64 was a disappointment compared to the standards set on the SNES.

That I'll agree on, there probably hasn't been a single DK game as poorly received as this..ever. Except maybe Donkey Kong Jr. Math or whatever it was called..

I'd be fine if they left in support for the Bongos as well as the Wii scheme (It's not like the Bongos don't work on the Wii), but nope they decided to replace the tactile feedback of banging a bongo with... well... hitting air. This is one case where waggle is a step back.

I'm finding inspiration for a game which is a mix between mischief makers, rocket knight adventures and ape escape...darn my failure as a videogame developer. :(

I think I would have rather had the game playable with a controller. Not the Wiimote or bongos.
