Donkey Kong 64 reasons why it's better than bonanza and no i ain't gotta list em all off, you just know what they are already bitch.

based game that filters zoomers

>>714136670
Banjo Kazooie is fun af.

DK64 is honestly just shit.

>>714136670
Played and 100%ed on release, the worst padding I've ever encountered in a video game. Only memorable part was KKR fight

this game comes from the era of soulful fun when you could cruise around with a coconut gun and have a good time, it's not for minmaxing zoomers who need a cost/benefit analysis at all times to check whether scrolling through tik tok is more productive

>>714136665
sure ESL-kun

It's not terrible but it is definitely the worst Rare collectathon. Pretty much every flaw the others have on their own, this has them all, on top of being extremely glitchy and buggy

>>714136602
>locked behind arcade game
Agreed. Shit design.
>thats impossible to beat
People could beat the arcade games in the 80s with just one credit. Why cant you beat them?

>>714136521 (OP)
>movements are slow
You're meant to explore and enjoy the world. It's not slow
>no movement tech
What for? The levels are designed properly so you dont need a triple jump and wall jump to explore them.

>mini games
Yeah. But just skip the shit ones, you'll have enough bananas

The game is fun and it holds up today. Full of soul

>older game bad
>newer game good
Isn't that the fucking point?

Uh oh, you set off the snoys that pretend every old DK game is a masterpiece all of sudden.

if I enjoyed banjo kazooie and tooie will I enjoy DK64 and conkers?

>>714138123
>What for? The levels are designed properly so you dont need a triple jump and wall jump to explore them.

Because it's fun? It's a platformer, the way you traverse the levels should be part of the gameplay, and more involved than just 'walk from point A to point B' or 'get the right powerup'

COLLECT [color] THE GAME

>>714138652
Probably. DK64 is a slightly worse BT, and Conker is a lot more linear but very memorable

>>714138123
>You're meant to explore and enjoy the world. It's not slow
desu the only part I dont like about it is the arbitrary inability to pick up other Kongs' bananas even if you can reach them because you just walk through them. You should be able to pick up any item but you're stopped by being unable to physically touch the item with another kong. iirc the timed level only blocked you with barriers not the game just saying you're not allowed to touch that

>>714138123
It is slow. Holding forward on the control stick to move around a huge world is not my idea of fun traversal.

Even a deeply flawed and glichy game, like Super Mario Sunshine, is way more fun. Mario moves like butter in Sunshine, and his movement has so much depth to experiment with.

DK in DK64 moves like a tank by comparison.

Crash Bandicoot is the true successor to what a 3D Donkey Kong game should've played like.

>>714139462
I can't say I disagree with you. Crash 1 oozes the DKC jungle atmosphere. The crash style of gameplay would work perfectly for DK.

>>714139430
>he doesnt know about the dk64 movement tech like lag boosting, moonkicks, skid jumps, moontail, damage boosting, etc..
>or the broken shit like swimming through walls, phasing through ledges or camera clipping

>>714140053
Oh, I know about them. All those techs are very situational, difficult to pull off, and not as fun as you make them sound.

It's also not a good thing you need to break and glitch your game to have fun with it. Shaq Fu is the greatest game ever because I can use Game Genie.

>>714136521 (OP)
It's going to be the next starfox adventures and in 20 years DK will be remembered as "that one character in smash".

Install the Tag Anywhere mod and DK64 becomes GOTYAY

>>714136602
That fucking arcade game shit made me quit the game after a zillion kid hours. Fucking bullshit game

>>714139430
DK64 is broken as shit, walls are just suggestion.

>>714136521 (OP)
You didn't play the game, zoom zoom

niggas really defend this shit game because they played it when they were 7 oh my days

https://youtu.be/hABax66YJa0?si=XbvhibbQNIGIrZfV
transnanza will not have a single song that's as good as this one

>>714136602
I raged so fucking hard as a kid when I realized that stupid arcade game is what was keeping me from beating this game before my rental was up. I searched so hard thinking there had to be something I was missing, but I knew deep down even years before I had access to the internet to look it up that this stupid shit was gatekeeping my 100% playthrough and some dickhead would overwrite the save before I could rent the game again.

SO HE'S FINALLY HERE
PERFORMING FOR (You)S
A MAJOR FAGGOT
AND ONE OF THE JEWS

>>714136521 (OP)
There are no good donkey kong games.
Hopefully Bananza changes that

>>714136521 (OP)
dk64 is a boring collecthon, but bonanza looks like a tedious open world game

>>714136602
>How can anyone defend this?
Rare is based for forcing kids to git gud in vidya from all ages.
You also need to beat cranks pc game to.
Both games you need to beat twice even.
It's great.
Also why the infinite money cheat exists.

>>714136765
that's why bonanza is ripping off bk and not dk64

>>714140053
>the game has movement tech!
>it's all just glitches and exploits for sweaty no lifers who only found out cause youtube man told them
No.
The game needs actual built in defined movement tech.
Not your queer fagboi shit.

>There are no good donkey kong games.
wtf

>>714136521 (OP)
You know remember Beaver bother.

>>714148626
Don't be a nigger.
I'm not going to tolerate forced in fighting.
DKC 1-3 are excellent games.
DKCR is good enough while TF is fantastic.
Jungle Beat was very innovative for its fine and excellent on top of it.
I can't comment on jungle climbers. Not played.

>>714148884
>>714148839
Imagine getting mad at deliberate low effort rage bait.
do better.

>>714148886
I hate this.
THIS is what actually ruins DK64.
I can beat arcade dk twice.
I can beat astro twice.
I just can't Bother those fucking Beavers man.

I beat the arcade playing on project 64 years ago with a keyboard. How bad are you?

>>714136521 (OP)
dk

>>714149029
My only issue with DKCR was the motion controls. Is there a patched wii version or do I just have to play the 3ds one?

>>714149110
The minigames ranging from mid to shit as well as repeating really makes it unfun to 100%

>>714155097
Returns got a Switch version that allows for normal controls like the 3DS version and it has the extra 3DS levels as well.

>>714155192
I dont want to play the gimped switch version that runs worse than the wii game
Shaking the remote like a retard is still better

>>714136521 (OP)
This is one of those games you remember loving as a kid until you actually play it again and realise it sucks, i like the rap though i hope they do that again

>>714136521 (OP)
???
People have been saying DK64 is dogshit for the past 26 years. You're literally the only one pretending DK64 is/was good. Retard nigger.

>>714155410
op is doing pre-launch damage control, so when bananza ends up being trash he can "a-at least it isn't dk64", which is an extremely low bar
