DKC Atlas Forum

Original text (for archival purposes): I have created a backup for the currently existing microsites of Donkey Kong Country GBA series, but only the ones from Europe. The American ones were shut down in, like 2008 or something. The Japanese ones and the Spanish DKC GBA exists, although the character...

I extracted it from a DKC flash video from 2000 (made by a guy named Randy) using a program called SWF Picture Extractor (by SWFTools). Just wanted to share with everyone . Thoughts?

http://www.retrogamepower.com/files/8190/products/4581806/gameboy_advance_donkey_kong_country_3_2..jpg It's a pirated box of a pirated Donkey Kong Country 3 GBA game. I notice at least one noticeable error. I do find it annoying how there are so many artwork of DKC3 implanted on the back of the box...

Almost a three year bump, but I want a say in this, I have to say Donkey Kong Country 3 is the scariest. The music is creepier in the Game Boy Advance version than the Super Nintendo version. I'll sum it into a story: "Dixie and Kiddy lose all their lives. The next thing the player sees is a do...

I never noticed that, adult reference in an E-rated video game? Weird.

Two-year bump, but I found some differences that may or may not be so obvious: *In Screech's Sprint when Ellie runs fast from the three Sneeks, she runs slower than in the Super Nintendo version. *The Brothers Bear, Funky, Wrinkly, and Swanky music are all the same. In the Super Nintendo version the...

2013-07-11 19 34 38.png Slight bump, I noticed that Rare's GBA team didn't bother to make sprites for Kiddy in the Swanky's Dash mode. They instead made Swanky tell Kiddy, "You're too young for this game!" Saying that means he might as well be too young to battle giant spiders (Arich), ex...

Thanks Mattrizzle. I guess I was right, but how can Diddy Kong Pilot be sixty-five complete if that book was published roundabout August 2001 while the prototype we have is from September 2001? The prototype we have doesn't even come close to sixty-five percent complete. This is rather confusing...

http://web.archive.org/web/20141022000445/http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/q90/689/mi25.jpg Found this Diddy Kong Pilot and Sabrewulf scan (Spaceworld 2001) in a Japanese guide for Spaceworld 2001. If only I could figure out what it says... EDIT: Another scan from the book: http://web.archive.org/w...

http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/73/kcn7.png Alright, this one's from a PAL December 2010 buyer's guide. I found it on the Web Archive (bless that amazing site). I hope I can get challenged with one sometime, geno always gets the challenge (sorry it's so small, you gotta try and make out the text).

I think you mean the Coral Pink model, correct?

http://imageshack.us/a/img191/1494/qa7.png I see quite a lot of errors in this one. I love sharing my finds and such with you guys :). To start off, I'll list two: *They list 3DS console in the bold title four times, and only one bold title mentions the color (Metallic Red). *The word "white&q...

http://imageshack.us/a/img145/5294/mariokartdsbuyingguide.png Bump. I moved this from DKC-related scans to here because I feel this is a better topic. I see a lot of stuff wrong in this poorly-revised PAL buyer's guide (December 2012-January 2013). Notice the NTSC Mario Kart DS boxart in a PAL buye...

geno wrote:I can't believe I missed this: it says DIXIE KONG is in DKL!

It's what happens in unofficial guides. I shall try to look at the other scans, maybe I'll get DKC-related buyer guide/catalog scans sometime, even if it's obsolete unless it has mock-up boxarts.

♡♪!? is pronounced Heartmusicnoteexclamationquestion. That's my random thought.

http://img541.imageshack.us/img541/4617/lj8.png Alternate advert than the one I mentioned above. I got the scans of the walkthrough of Donkey Kong Country 2 from issues 41 and 42 of Nintendo Magazine System. I only got up to Krazy Kremland though. I shall try to find more scans of DKC2 :): http://w...

I haven't updated this in a while, but here's a UK advertisement for Donkey Kong Country 2 (spoiler for size):



I hope you all enjoy it .

I'm a male, but just with an avatar and username based on Gaz from Invader ZIM. Have you also noticed that Kiddy was underrated in the storyline for Donkey Kong Land III? Donkey and Diddy got all the fame at the start.

Now our friend Kiddy here has a point. I think Kiddy's a cute monkey :3. It's so unfair that these are his only appearances: *Donkey Kong Country 3 (SNES) - November 1996 *Donkey Kong Land III (GB) - October 1997 *Donkey Kong GB - Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong - January 2000 *Donkey Kong Country 3 (GB...

Thanks again. I also notice that a weird non-existent link cable hooks up the GBAs and randomly has wires come out... Just dedicated to DKP 2001 is all.

Spoiler for mentioning another site. It has a lot of external links which could help this topic's Diddy Kong Pilot fact list. It's also slightly based off this forum topic: Quite pointless, but I have taken all the knowledge I could about Diddy Kong Pilot 2001 and listed most of the facts individual...

Okay, so this is a topic for instances of Engrish in video games. Engrish, if none of you knew yet, is poorly translated English from Asia (e.g. Korea, China,, Taiwan, etc.) Engrish can even be on signs and notices there. There is mainly Engrish in unlicensed video game memorabilia such as flashcart...

You don't bug us, you make it enjoyable for us .

But it was presented at Spaceworld 2001 on August 23 or 24th of 2001. I would've thought it was a later build because of the lack of debug stars, a more advanced clock race icon, and GBAs on the Battle screen option (GBAs existed in 2001, not a majority of 2000). EDIT: Ignore the strike...

You're welcome . I'll try to compare all the revisions I can. I try to gain all the DKP facts possible out there. Please let me know if you find any differences in that video.

Hooray for Mattrizzle's new and amazing finds! I was wondering where those screens were... I also found a hard-to-find video related to Diddy Kong Pilot on PocketMovies IGN (with the help of the Internet Archive): Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/4zxm1nzks64obbm/DKP.zip And for the link i...

I know this might be off-topic, but I really dislike it when people criticize Super Mario Bros. 2. . I do think that there are five DKC installments, three of which are the originals and classics.

I find it strange how Donkey Kong is playing Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong even though he's not even in the game itself, only a part of the story which was mentioned in the manual.

DKP Font.png In the image above, I ripped the primary font for Diddy Kong Pilot (2001) so others may use it. It could be submitted to The Spriter's Resource, but I plan to leave it here. You could take it there, but please notify or ask me first. The letters Q, V, X, and Z are unused, only numbers ...

Wait, David Wise joined Retro Studios? I do find that the original three DKC games are the best as I grew up with those on the GBC and GBA. I still have to admit, this is indeed excellent! 2013 is DKC year (DKCR 3D's release and Tropical Freeze's upcoming release.) Metroid is okay Markster, not the ...

Woot! . Time to get my country club on! It said Retro wasn't interested in another DKC game. I wonder where Dixie is...

I'd like to complain that Windows 8 doesn't have the Start Menu tab at the bottom right. I refuse to upgrade mine to Windows 8 because of that.

Aww... poor mattdog. No one wished him a happy birthday. Happy birthday to mattdog and Markster! .

Infinite. It's impossible.

What's two plus two?

Excuse me for my mistake :oops: . I hope I'm okay. I don't know that much about DKC3 SNES compared to DKC3 GBA. Oh yeah, and the prototype apparently might be the same one since it has Funky in his DKC2 sprite, and Blizzard looks a lot different. I noticed a lot of stuff between the beta and retail ...

Okay, so for more differences: Character Selection Screen vlcsnap-2013-06-09-15h39m42s134.png Diddy Kong Pilot (Character Select).png Diddy Kong Pilot 2001 (Pre-Alpha)_01.png For the Spaceworld 2000 version, the title screen is different in every way possible.

Welcome back . Hooray for summer! It's like last summer was just yesterday...

Also, happy tenth birthday Donkey Kong Country for the Game Boy Advance! (released June 9, 2003 in North America). Here's your present from Blue, .

Time for my contribution to this with differences I found in Swanky's Sideshow: vlcsnap-2013-06-09-12h06m06s56.png 0.jpg Okay, so the differences include: *The counter whether Dixie/Kiddy or Cranky is closer to winning is removed. *The time counter is on Cranky's screen instead of the left-center of...

You never cease to amaze, Blaziken. I'm not necessarily an expert on the DKL games, but I do know a lot about DKC GBC, DKC GBA series, and Diddy Kong Pilot. I know a fair amount about DK: King of Swing too. I grew up with handhelds and remakes, not the original titles :/. Check this out too. It's my...

Okay, so here I will list differences between the two prototypes of Diddy Kong Pilot (2000/2001). I felt it was better to split this into a different topic as this is about the two different prototypes of Diddy Kong Pilot rather than the ROM release of the latter build. First off is the title screen...

I wonder why, but I seem to have an obsession with old wiki articles from like 2004-2007 or poor grammatically written wiki articles. I wonder why.

Slight bump, but I merged the wikis into a single video game wiki on ShoutWiki ( http://videogames.shoutwiki.com ). The Donkey Kong Land 2 article is huge, check this out: http://videogames.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Donkey_Kong_Land_2 (I also did that to make it a DK-related project). I should've sid this ...

Don't feel bad. I have only four, Super Luigi!. You have ten more than I do. I don't like to see my buddy sad.

Slight bump, but in the longest time, I was finally able to relocate some new DKC scans (finally)...:

I love Cranky's quote XD. Blaziken, I hope I'm not going against everything you stand for, but I'm kinda excited about DKCR 3D...

Amazing! You never fail to impress, Blaziken. That DKL3 prototype might just be neglected if it weren't for you. Remember, I'm like your biggest fan Blaziken. I'm always excited for your projects and such. If I could one day experience ROM hacking to follow your footsteps... Anyways, I love it. I lo...

I know this is completely random, but is anyone here into shopping guides for video games and such? They can be quite interesting. Here's a little example for you (a UK buyer's guide from a SegaPro magazine (even contains drawings to advertise);

HAPPY TWENTY-FOURTH BIRTHDAY, Blaziken257!

I wish you a happy birthday. Donkey Kong Land III should be at its happiest today .

Wow, nice find. It's almost like the ROCKARD oversight in DKC2 for the Game Boy Advance. Again, you're the biggest DKL worker there is and you happily promote the series to the public in all different ways. Once again, congratulations ol' buddy. Say, why isn't there a Wikipedia article about you? Yo...
