DKC Atlas Forum

replying to a 13-month old topic, I know. But I do have codes from the SNES games off the top of my head: DYDDY: Practice Animal Buddy Bonus Rounds BARRAL: 50 Lives DARBYDAY: sound test BARRALAX: No barrels YASADLAD: 49 Lives HARDR: No DK Barrels TUFST: No Star Barrels WATER: Enter the waterfall nea...

Well now that K. Rool is present in Smash Bros, and that he is more unhinged than normal in the trailer, my theory is that after his four canon defeats (DKC1-3, DK64), he went into hiding on some other island, rebuilding Crocodile Island complete with the Blast-O-Matic, after K. Lumsy possibly destr...

I should probably bring up that the mother of all DKC edits/customs has been made and uploated to TSR

I wish that was the name of a level, but I litteraly mean that there is an homage that's been hiding in plain sight in this port. Remember the ridiculously hard Funky's Rentals minigame? https://www.mariowiki.com/images/e/e1/DKC3GBAFunky%27sRentalsProtect.png Well as it turns out, this is the homage...

I own a copy of the GBA version and the Soundtest goes: Simian Segue 1 (Jungle theme plays) Simian Segue 2 (second half of Jungle theme plays) Northern Hemispheres (Snow BGM) Misty Menace (Mine BGM) Mine Cart Madness (Minecart BGM) Cave Dweller Concert (Cave BGM) Aquatic Ambiance (Water BGM) Voices ...

This is Howard Donkey Kong Land III should be played, in Technicolor!

Been marathoning the show on YouTube, and I have to say: the announcer on Cranky's TV is actually this guy:

CountryFan wrote:Last I checked, Flapper was the one who could barely carry the Kongs, and Quawks is the one who picks up barrels.

Correction: Both of them are Quawks

I beg to differ on Pacifica being the best: everyone else on here cites it as the worst world alongside Razor Ridge

Adding to Geno's last post, K. Rool uses Chunky's voice clips instead of his own during the fights in Kastle KAOS and the Knautilus. In actuallity after playing and 101%ing the GBA port, the GBC port should not have been released.

Having seen the videos by PatTheNESPunk and Game Sack, it's not worth it. Sure Jimmy Fallon did use it for one episode of his show so that Mike Tyson could fight himself in Punch Out, but it's riddled with problems like: 1) Can't accept unlisenced/flash/reproduction carts 2) Can't accept light guns ...

I actually tried fixing the pallette of Funky's board, but it ended up making it look more like "Trixie"/glitch Dixie was in the room

The background of K. Rool Duel is based off of the North American SNES BG, minus the SNES controller. This is same in the PAL and JPN versions.

I really hate this guy on GameTheory. I would list off his crimes but I'll just give you the top 3. :rant: 3. Saying that Final Fantasy is anti-religion (and yet you get revived in a Church in the original game on the Famicom and MSX) 2. Saying that Sonic is not the fastest thing alive (Gnoggin debu...

Well, I have been doing something similar on the Mario Wiki

So in one of my usual visits to the Mario Wiki, I came across the fact that it seemed pretty lacking in Japanese terms for this Twycross-born collectathon. So using Japanese source including the even more accurate Japanese Wikipedia, I went and compiled some of the Enemy names: English name (Kana/Ro...

Sorry for the bump but that whole thing about the alternate sequence is just a hack, which tries to put K. Rool Duel in Stronghold Showdown. The real use of the sprites may have been if you failed a bonus round much like how the first game had one of DK facepalming himself and Diddy stomping his hat.

1 year bump - Keeping with tradition like the other two games, Cranky appears and gives comments about the boss you just killed. His sprites for all of the bosses are based on his appearance in DKC2. With Barbos, he shuffles in using his graphics from the SNES version, making that the last remnant o...

If you've heard of GBAMusRiper, you'll know what I'm talking about, if not, it's hard to explain, but basically, it rips high quality samples from GBA games, makes a soundfont, rips MIDIs from the game, and then with BASSMIDI and the MIDI foobar plugin, allows you to hear GBA Music in really high q...

It's the same one from the intro to the first game. In fact pounding/shooting it causes the original SPC file of the DK Theme to play. And how fitting...

Which is just the Lose a Life theme in the port

Not to be left out, Slipslide Ride has the only left-pointing sign. I remember noticing this a while back... I think SsR might be the most unusual level in the trilogy, all told. In more ways than one: 1) The only Ice Cave 2) The only level with Ice Cave Chant 3) One of the few levels if not the on...

Well Gangplank is more grammatically correct than Gang-Plank, I didn't even notice that I forgot the c in Deck. "Pot Hole Panic" came from another rip by PMH where the Kremlantis name originated. And the DK Island Swing/Simian Segue fiasco came from the GBA in game sound test found on the ...

While Geno was off doing that, I went and converted the .gbs files from Portable Music History into MP3s using Foobar, and I even labelled them with the correct names and positioned them according to the DK Jamz Album

SimianSegue wrote::oops:...How embarassing...

Even more embarassing: Simian Segue is the Jungle Theme and DK Island Swing is the Map Theme I thought I had that abundantly clear in my post

Looking at Gang-Plank Galleon in the first game, not only does one notice the final Giant Banana but a few peels, some shovels, three cannons, and a bucket.

Never knew that there was a degree symbol in the series. But it makes me wonder if Rare was using Fahrenheit or Celcius.

Great, now somebody needs to do DK carrying Diddy like in the concept art for the first game.

Davias just ripped the Game Over Screen from the game, and I can see a Neek right next to Diddy's foot.

Likewise, Tonberry2K3 also ripped the background for Funky's Flights and if you look closely, one can find his surfboard and his plane from the original game.

I can see something that looks like Junior the Klap-Trap from the TV series. He's right next to what appears to be a sword from behind Kruncha. Likewise, i can also spot Klomp

I actually put together an extended version of "K. Rool Returns" in Audacity, using two tracks from the game.

Krematoa is also based on Krackatoa, a volcanic Island in the Pacific as well as Vulcania from the Jules Verne novel Journey to the Center of the Earth, and the submarine Knautilus is really the Nautilus from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Nice

Something else I've noticed is that Rare kept reusing the same MODE7 fog layer in all three games to represent something else.

Who wants to hear my DKC GBC soundtrack rip?

I do! I do!

The Japanese OST "Super Donkey Kong Game Music CD ~ Jungle Fantasy" confirms the Ewok basis by having Treetop Rock labeled as Forest Refuge - The Ewok Level.

Jungle Hijinx, still 'nuff said.

Not just that, too. It appears that the credits from season 1 and 2 are identical for the voices... for as far as I can remember at least. Which is odd as I can definitely hear other actors... they do a fine job replicating the first season's talent, though! Well they did have to replace Len Carlso...

In the Lost World Ending, the Flying Krock track plays as the island sinks under the ocean with K. Rool swearing revenge, instead of howling wind and K. Rool cackling as he sails away. Even further, the Kloaks no longer make a "Hahaha!" sound when throwing crap and a "Oohahh!" wh...

But you seem to be forgetting the new boss, Krocktopus. Is it possible that it is a mutated Croctopus from the original SNES game?

I'd liketo bring this up, which could possibly get rid of some "kong"-fusion (but not that this is fan-made):

Phew, thanks! I've been looking for those tracks.

The background for the VG Heroes screen is different, also Link is in Second Place instead of Yoshi. And the "No Hopers" have some hope this time around as the bin is no longer present, probably because of copyright issues.

After listening to all three tracks, I now start to realize why OCRemix brought David in to redo "Donkey Kong Rescued" alongside Grant Kirkhope and Robin Beanland.

My dad claims that DKC 1 is his favorite videogame of all time.

But real fun is when you realize that a few of the voice actors have actually worked together This is what I mean: http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100820140047/donkeykong/images/thumb/1/19/WrinklyKongDKC3-SNES.png/138px-WrinklyKongDKC3-SNES.png = http://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/8/8f/Su...

I think he was thalking about the Treehouse Icon on the world map, the inaccessable one.
