The reason why Donkey Kong Country only did really well on the Super Nintendo is that new DKC games were only released on the SNES. You might as well ask why Pikmin didn't become a millionselling series until the Gamecube.

I think you're confusing Pikmin with something else here. Pikmn was created during the GameCube, not before, unless I it actually was, which then I shall ask you where can I play the first Pikmin every created. O_O

@ Bolded: Wait, are you implying the DKC ports didn't do well in the game boy and so forth because they were simply port? I don't get this sentence here.

Yes, that's what I am implying. There have only been three DKC games and all of them were originally released on the SNES. That's why it should come as no surprise that DKC only sold phenomenal on the SNES.

My Pikmin analogy was just meant to illustrate how silly this part of your original post sounded:

"I understand Donkey Kong did really well in Super Nintendo. However, the series has only done phenomenal in the Super Nintendo."

I think you misread my post. I didn't say "I understand Donkey Kong Country did really well in Super Nintendo. However, the series has only done phenomenal in the Super Nintendo."

I wrote this instead. "I understand Donkey Kong did really well in Super Nintendo. However, the series has only doesn phenomenal in the Super Nintendo."

I think I understand why you misunderstood. Was it because I said, "However, the series has only done phenomenal in the Super Nintendo"; that you assumed I was talking about Donkey Country Country instead of the entire Donkey Kong series in the sentence, "I understand Donkey Kong  did really well in Super Nintendo." (When I mean entire I mean: Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong Land, Donkey Kong Jungle Climbers).

I guess I should have said. "I understand the Donkey Kong Country series did really well on the Super Nintendo. However, that was the only Donkey Kong series that sold phenomenal and was limited to only the Super Nintendo console. The other Donkey Kong games sold modestly on the NES, Gameboy; Gameboy Advance, N64, and etc, never reaching the sale levels of the Donkey Kong Country games.
