DKC Atlas Forum

I've actually come to like Baby DK in recent times, simply because combined with Diddy he basically keeps DK Jr. from ever showing up in a DK or Mario game with the rest of the Country cast. Which is fine by me, he's probably gonna be in the Mario vs Donkey Kongs eventually anyway. I will admit that...

If he gets a second F-Zero character in there he gets, oh I dunno, a chocolate bar. I'll pay for the shipping and handling.

I think DK's actually in a really good place right now, to the point where - and anyone who remembers me from DKU will know how I raised holy hell for years about this - I think we've pretty much "won", for lack of a better term. Thanks to Paon, the majority of the DK cast has been brought...

The "friendly alien looks for help" storyline may be overused in other places (though Shadow and Mario & Luigi 2 are not there), but for a Donkey Kong game it's pretty unique. K. Rool trying to take over the universe impressed me more before I beat Galaxy, though. Oh well, got to give ...

Despite being a different genre from the Countries, Jungle Climber actually shares a lot of similar gameplay elements, namely of course the tag-team system (this becomes much more apparent if you'd played King of Swing, this game's prequel, which doesn't feature any of that. Still good, though). The...

It also comes with every single copy of the game.

Eh. I might as well post this somewhere instead of just sitting on it.

133 screenshots for your perusal. Keep in mind that this is me, so you can probably guess which characters will be getting precedence.

There is no tomfoolery to be had here.

It all boils down to one question: Can gorillas, monkeys, chimpanzees, mandrills, baboons, and orangutans successfully mate? I sure as heck don't know, but we might have some smart people here who do. No. It's this thing called interspecies breeding, and in real life it doesn't happen. The parts do...

Which was written by the people who were behind Nintendo Power at the time, not Rare or anyone else who'd made the games. The nephew concept first showed up in Donkey Kong's bio in the original Super Smash Bros., and we all know that series loves its factual errors. The only other time it's referred...

Tiny, Diddy and Dixie all have the same stats, which going from memory I believe is three stars across the board. Banjo's replacement, as such, could potentially be either Taj or Wizpig, both of whom are playable in DKRDS (and at the very least I believe Taj wasn't playable in the N64 version). And ...

Jomingo, your argument about Tiny in DKRDS has one problem: Paon and Nintendo redesigned her, not Rare. Rare's admitted to this in Scribes; initially she was just going to be her DK64 design, but Paon had already redesigned her for Barrel Blast and Nintendo had Rare use that design instead. Also, sh...

I don't think we're going to be seeing Kiddy or Chunky again, at least not in a Paon game (but then, if it isn't a Paon game we'll be lucky to get Diddy ). Basically, Paon has redesigned Funky into fulfilling the Strong Kong role, what with his six pack and more muscular build now (and the fact that...

To be fair, Donkey Kong Land III had unique concepts to itself, like the time trials at the end and the concentration puzzles throughout. Another thing worth considering is that DKL 2 and III are much bigger than the first game, which is only four worlds. The sequels emulate their SNES counterparts ...

Funky aside, "YOU SUCK" is hardly an expletive. To me, most of what the characters say is essentially just random gibberish, typical of Japanese voice actors trying to sound they're speaking English without actually saying anything. So you get lots of grunts and yells that are probably uns...

I've been anticipating this site's opening for the past two months now, and I must say that I am really impressed by the whole thing. Even in this "preview" state, the site design looks fantastic and I'm amazed by the level of detail you're including and aiming to include. Just looking at ...
