WE GOT MERCH! thecompletionist.com/
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat is not a rhythm game like the bongos with Donkey Konga. At first I thought I had to play along with the music but only ended messing myself up. This game for the Nintendo Gamecube (with our glorious HDMI mod) keeps the wackiness of the Donkey Kong universe and shares some elements of gameplay that would appear in later titles. This is a bit different from with Donkey Kong games. There's no letters, not even any hearts for health. In fact its all about platforming and completing combos to get you there.
Let me know what you thought about my Donkey Kong review!

Having the second cam of DK on the bottom left was there to emphasize his expressions and reactions to the environment, such as him putting on his game face when enemies were around. The other feature of this that was less hinted at was that he would show a bit of a happy/excited reaction when a secret was within reach (for the most part being a spot on the ground where bananas would appear after clapping in which DK would preform a groundpound). I’ve deleted my save data to 100% the game several times over and I’ve got to say I’m glad to have seen this in my recommendations, seeing it all these years later has brought back some good memories of my time playing it, thanks for covering it!

Completely forgot this existed but man did I play the hell out of this game when I was young. Wore myself out hitting the bongos so fast
I had a really great time watching you on the Mario Maker 2 invitational! Congrats my dude!
I am definitely gonna check that out. The Idea with a gamecube with an HDMI port sounds AMAZING! Also, I've always wanted to try Jungle Beat! The bongos were always so intriguing as a device!
A remake, please. This game deserves a series. It's sad it sold poorly on the GC. The fun, the originality, the immense pleasure of moving DK around, platforming and doing tricks to get max combos, all with the Bongos. I agree the Bongos makes this game even more special. I also agree about boss fights, the Kongs are by far the best fights in all DK games I've played so far. Maybe it will come as a shock to some, but it's possible my favorite DK game is Jungle Beat (I played all DKC on SNES but not Returns or Tropical Freeze yet). In any case, thanks for talking about this game. It is so under-appreciated. I don't care the game was short, the pleasure was immeasurable and I want more games like those. The only issue I had is lack of challenging contents. Part of the problem however was because I was too good at the game. At some point I could achieve a run with no damage in all stages, bosses, beating the entire game with all Platinum badges in just 2h.
I love your style in your new videos!!!!! Awesome video bro love ya

Well, the Wii version has a nice little reward for unlocking every crest: Donkey Kong wearing a crown.

I loved this game when I was younger. I got it with the bongos and never put them down for a normal controller. Glad to see it is still remembered by others as fondly as I remember it.
I love this game, the first time I played this in my youth my jaw dropped when I beat that first sleeping warthog thing. The action had me HOOKED and that with a controller, I probably would've enjoyed it more if I had the bongos. It was really unlike anything I had experienced.

It's incredibly underrated and I wish they made another like it. I would LOVE to take on more badass Kong boss fights. One of the few games I beat many times through.
I cannot believe this!! This was a game I played as a kid that I borrowed from a friend. This is so cool to see this game and recognise so much!

This game was part of my childhood. This is IMO, one of the most underrated games, and my favorite game on the GameCube. There is so much you can do with just a pair of bongos and a game, it controlled fantastically and the music is a damn bliss. The themes, while yes, can get a tiny bit repetitive, sometimes have really cool concepts, like Banshee Swamp or Clock Tower. Getting large combos in some levels in absolutely rewarding and losing my combo just makes me want to try the whole kingdom again to try and top my high scores. It is ABSOLUTELY satisfying to go over 2000 beats and just squeeze the combos out of the level. The soundtrack is SO DAMN GOOD, that I could listen to it for HOURS in a non-exaggerated way, it's superb fits the levels well. I could go on and on about how this game is a masterpiece... But you forgot TWO MAJOR FLAWS... It's loud as fuck and is probably really hard to play in a time and place where a lot of noise isn't welcomed, I'm surprised you didn't mention that. Another one is that it is HORRIBLE on an emulator, the lag is horrible and the controls that is used for the controller (if you use one for the game) is horrendous. If Nintendo ever needs game to make a sequel out of, this one would be a nice one to pick.
I have great memories of playing Jungle Beat; it was near Summer 2005 and this was one of the last games that I played on GameCube. It was a great experience from beginning to end.

Everything had consequences so I’m not sure what you’re on about. Also you say it’s just like OOT but there are no sages and really after you get the paraglider you can go straight to Ganon (unlike OOT) though I guess I can see the similarities between the sages and the first four shrines.

I just hope a sequel happens where Donkey Kong gets help from his new allies Dread Kong, Karate Kong, Ninja Kong, and Sumo Kong fighting against new four Kongs as well.. i can see this being remastered for the Switch so that everyone can have a good JungleBeat..

I fucking knew it. When you teased us the other day with that post, everyone thought it was DKCRTF with Funky Kong. But, that seemed to obvious. I fucking knew it, but doubted it because of the bongo controller. This was my favorite game when I was younger, my favorite Donkey Kong Game, and a very underrated Gamecube Game. Congratulations on beating it.
