I never beat Donkey Kong 64, one of my all time favorite games. Let me clear some things up, I always beat every game I start, and I start alot of games. I like most any game, and not beating Donkey Kong 64, despite loving it sooo much, has haunted me for years.
I played through the whole damn game, but could never climb to the top in the Classic Donkey Kong game. (I already got the coin from the jetpack game) So, after lossing sleep for 6 years, I finally got back into it, playing it for 15 to 20 minutes a night trying to climb to the top of the tower. When I finally did it, I already knew I would only be rewarded with a banana, so I was ready to do it again. It only took me 2 trys to get to the top the second time through (which is a little harder). I then probably needed a dozen, if not more, trys to beat the final boss, but I did it.
I now feel relieved, and refreshed. I feel I could take on anything... I just wish Rare would make one more real Donkey Kong game, although I know they never will again because they broke away from Nintendo a few years back. Actually I think Nintendo broke away from Rare because.. basically because Rare doesnt make any games anymore.. Its too bad really. I love Donkey Kong 64, and I have finally conquered it.
A delayed game is good someday, a bad game is bad forever.
