DKC Atlas Forum

I've made sure I'm not entirely spoiled for this game, but I HAVE looked up a few nice interesting videos showing some cool easter eggs and details in Tropical Freeze. I'm sure all you DKC fans will love these!

A crazy-big bump, I know... but I just found something I have to share! WARNING: If you value your sanity, you may wish to avoid this clip: JffyCCjph0M Highly ridiculous, very French, and entirely "DKTV". :lol: ^^^ My reaction: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c337/sapphiretonic/FzArSAj....

Happy B'day DK Atlas! Happy 20th for DKC!

Fitting that I recently finished my LP of DKC2, fun times.



Totally pumped for Tropical Freeze

Chao, hands down.

^ There could be a few reasons why Retro didn't include them. Firstly, an active volcano on DK island means Gorilla Glacier would have been blown to smithereens. As for water levels, they'd probably be too sluggish with the way DKCR controls, and the climate would have changed drastically to more hu...

DKCR is a Donkey Kong Country Game too.

Okay, referring to the previous few pictures, here's some interesting things I've just come across... http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c337/sapphiretonic/dkisland_snes.png At the very bottom, is that the sail belonging to the Gangplank Galleon? It looks like it belongs to a ship of some sort, but t...

I really like the spelling out ones, they were cleverly done especially later in the game, where you had to spell out NINTENDO and animal buddy's names.

I've only played DKC2 GBA, whilst on the surface people immediately assume they are terrible ports due to the lower sound and picture quality. But the gameplay is pretty much exactly the same as the SNES versions, and being portable doubles the awesomeness.

DKC2 has some fantastic music. Some are just given more attention than others.

It was actually Forest Interlude, not Stickerbush Symphony, that compelled me to pause the game to listen to this masterpiece when I first got to Gloomy Gulch.

No one really know who inhabits Tree Top Town... Maybe it was the Ewoks all along XD

Where's Dumb Drum? :[

I chose Kaptain K. Rapp Rool, Kleever, and Bleak.

SNES by far, the sound and visuals are unparralleled in comparison to the hand held counterparts.

To me, they look a little TOO sad for failing to complete a bonus room. I always assumed there would be for a death of a character.

^ Well, it does use a modified Boss theme, which is intended to be a little more creepy

Can't go wrong with good old Yoshi's Island.

Yoshi is one of my favourite Nintendo characters, he really needs another solo adventure on his own, maybe in 3D?

Ah, I see you're talking about THIS?

Heck yeah, it's creepy. If I were playing this game in the middle of the night and this screen comes up.... O_O

Hard to say, I would say Kreepy Krow. Beating that guy without getting hit once is an achievement.

That's because of having different developers who took a completely different spin on the series. It's a Donkey Kong Country game, but not a Donkey Kong Country 4 game. Given the pace of the game, I couldn't see a water level working here, unless DK was riding on a rocket barrel or Enguarde during t...

Overall, I see DKCR as separate to the series while being worthy of being a Donkey Kong Country game. With a different gameplay flow, different control style, different developers, and on a console that is 2 generations older than the SNES, of course there'd be inconsistentcies and differences that ...

What's with all the Platform Perils hate? Never gave me issues, that was one of my chill levels.

Snow Barrel Blast on the other hand... Mannn, if your timing is off by a split second, you're doomed.

Well, the DKC3 GBA board had one, why not DKC2? Any changes you noticed between the SNES and GBA versions you can post here. -Krook seems to have a greater delay before attacking, he also doesn't turn around if Diddy/Dixie approches from behind. -You can kill Kruncha by jumping on him with both Kong...

I'm always fond of factory levels in the DKC series, which is why I love Mekanos the most ♥

My favourites:
Low-G Labyrinth
Poisionous Pipeline
Kong-fused Kliffs
Krack-shot Kroc
Fire-ball Frenzy
Ripsaw Rage
Lightening Lookout
Rocket Run
and ANY level with ropes.

Ropes are fun.

I always thought it was a Bazooka-looking enemy that shot you in this level.

Nice find, good to know that the faceless enemy had an actual design.

Pretty much all of them cheese me off in some way, shape or form. Klobber Karnage all the way. It's fun and interesting in both SNES and GBA versions. For the others: Animal Antics- the challenge is fine with me, but they butchered it in the GBA Black Ice Battle- Not too bad, plenty of tricky jumps....

Personally, I don't want to see too many 3rd party charaters, this is after all, a Nintendo game. Dixie should have a more involved appearence instead of only being a trophy, perhaps she could be an alternative costume to Diddy with some minor attack changes? As for K. Rool, that would indeed be epi...

Dang, this is going to be hard... In no particular order!: 10. Okami 9. Conker's Bad Fur Day 8. Banjo Tooie + Kazooie 7. Paper Mario: TTYD 6. Sonic Adventure 2 Battle 5. Donkey Kong Country 1, 2, 3 & Returns 4. Super Mario All Stars + Super Mario World 3. Pokemon Yellow, Diamond & Soul Silve...

There used to be tons of video game shops where I live, EB Games and GAME seem to be the only ones that come to mind, but they only sell DS, Wii, 360, ps2 and ps3 games. Currently, my favourite video game store isn't a game store at all XD I go to Cash Converters 'cuz they have a constant changing s...

Late reply is late, derp. This game was preowned when I purchased it back in the early 2000s. I don't have Gameshark, but the previous owner could have used one otherwise. Weird thing is, I distinctly remember playing multiplayer years back, unless that was when we were renting the game before then....

IMHO, the characters in DK64 had more personality and variation compared to any other DK game, and I found pretty much everyone likable in their own quirky way. So it's hard to say definitely who's the least liked, I ended up saying Wrinkly Kong 'cause her role was pretty minor in the game and she d...

All photos exept swanky and wrinkly

I think here might be your problem, 'cuz you get a DK coin for every finished page.
Didn't you get Swanky's picture through winning all 3 quizes in every level?

Running for my life because I'm being chased by something Stages These really appeal to me for some reason, which was why I loved the level design in DKC3. They're action-packed, challenging when you need to collect stuff, and above all nerve-racking especially when you're playing the level for the...

My parents don't really give a hoot, my older brother was the one who had introduced me to DKC1, and later led me to play DKC2, 3 and Returns over the years. He doesn't care too much about DKC anymore, we did play some Co-op on Returns but he thinks it's "all the same" like in DKC1. Too ba...

http://www.youtube.com/user/DonkeyKongCentral For anyone who wants to watch a bunch of episodes, this is the YT Channel to see. I have to agree, there are many memorable quotes, especially from K. Rool, Krusha and Klump XD K. Rool: "So how do you like your new position?" (after firing Klum...

The skills! The epicness! The glitches!

My eyes, they burn @_@

How all of you can draw and make art at such an awesome level is beyond me. Keep it up!

(I really want to draw some DKC-related stuff, but I have no idea how to x_X )

Late response is late, thanks for the feedback. Crap... looks like I can't do multiplayer anymore then ;_; Another issue I've come across is the banana coin count, one minute I have 200 coins for one Kong, then the next minute it goes down to 10 or some really low number, I thought there was no limi...

Interweb names: Mayo- Doesn't come from 'Mayonnaise' as you may be expecting, actually was named after a Chao who I called Mayo (I'm a SA2B/SADX player, and yes, I'm obsessed with Chao XD). This is my current nickname. Sapphire/Sapphirechao- My previous internet name, named after a very early fancha...

Since revisiting the trip down to memory lane by playing through some games filled with nostalgia-goodness like SMW, Yoshi's Island, DKC1 and 3. I've now moved from SNES to N64, shifting my nostalgia intake to DK64 and the Banjo-Kazooie series. Omnomnomnom 8D I also played some 3DS, before it was re...

Welcome Katzii!!

Hope you have an awesome time here 8D

- Completed Banana Bird caves are now marked with a flag (Can't remember if they were in the original.) - The Brothers Bear houses are now more detailed and better reflect their personality. For example, it's "Brash's Stadium" now - can't remember what his house was called in the original...

Well, DKC2 probably was the most frustratingly hard game of the trilogy, the majority of the bosses (especially King Zing, the ghostly parrot guy and Kaptain K. Rool), and any stages with wind or brambles (Bramble Scramble in particular) were probably the most annoying for me.

I just feel like sharing this: http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/4619/dscn4061.jpg FFFF :evil: and http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/1092/dscn4059n.jpg DOHOHOHOHO 8D Time trial probably has to be the most flawed system in the game, couldn't they have made death = restart clock? And if you hit a chec...

Cranky, I just love his rants, and the humour he brings to almost every game he appears in.

Now retro gamers today sound like Cranky Kong XD

It's kinda interesting, I voted Expresso because of him being fast and can hover for extra air time. In Donkey Kong Land, he's far more useful than in DKC, he can actually kill enemies (including Zingers!) and can do almost a 'double jump' when you tap A in mid air. He's sorta like Expresso himself ...

Rock Rush!

Epic music, unique concept, AND you finally get to seek revenge on those annoying Red Buzzes.

The show's definitely outdated by todays standards (in terms of graphics), but I still think they're much better than the cartoons you get these days. I really like the bad guys; the Kritters, Krusha and Klump and so freaking funny. Along with how wacky they've made K. Rool, it's almost the complete...

Character representation WHERE THE HECK IS FUNKY KONG?! He was in every single DKC title up until this. Why not?! ... auto saving eliminates Candy and the single press of a button to go back to the map gets Funky off. This is completely ridiculous. Who cares if you have to reach the end of the firs...
