Terrible game imo. I find it boring as hell.

I have never even heard of this game!

Idea for next thread
"Forgotten Nintendo games: Ocarina of Time"

Great game during those time. Love playing this game on my famicom

I almost picked this up as a freebie from Club Nintendo. If they put it on sale again at any point, I'm going to nab it. I am a huge fan of "Donkey Kong".

That game sucked, so it's no wonder it's forgotten!

Awesome read! The Donkey Kong games are classic. Even if you find them boring by today's standards, you have to play them at least once. I remember DK3 was not my favorite of the bunch, but I never gave it a fair shot, either. Time to revisit it!

I knew of this game, but I never played it. It's strange that it's such a departure from it's predecessors. Cool read!

I have the original 1981 Donkey Kong on my Atari 2600 (boxed, with an extremely uncharacteristic box-art), which is, besides hideous graphics, a decent enough port. I like Donkey Kong Jr. best personally, of those original games.

Donkey Kong wasn't completely forgotten after Donkey Kong 3 though, besides the arcade ports to NES, there was also Donkey Kong Jr. Math for NES and a couple of Game & Watches, but I agree those were all just minor spin-offs.

Pretty sure you're kidding.

Not so subtle bump.
