 Introduction
------------------------------
I'm
a little bitter towards this particular pirate, Super Donkey
Kong 2. I had the chance to win a copy from an online auction
but was sniped at the last possible second. What has the world
come to when people tend to sniping over a Hong Kong pirate
NES game! Well, aside from the crazy consumers who have too
much money in their hands, I must say it's not too hard to
see why people would go bananas over this one. My auction
story exemplifies just how good this pirate is.
DKC2
is an original Hong Kong pirate "port" of the sequel
SNES hit: Donkey Kong Country 2. Although on the label you
see Dixie as well as Diddy, you can in fact only control Diddy
(also as in the SNES version, Donkey Kong is unplayable too).
The graphics, levels, and even sound are damn good for a pirate
and these elements are without a doubt some of the best and
most impressive effects I have experienced from the old Nintendo
toaster box.
Unfortunately,
there
is one sour Kong in this barrel of monkeys that spoils the
whole banana bunch. Its name is Hong Kong. In typical
HK pirate tradition, there is always a catch to spoil an otherwise
enjoyable game. In Super Donkey Kong 2's case it's that there
are only three levels. Yes. Three.
Walkthrough
------------------------------
(Click to Enlarge)
Level
1
The
first level of the game is a pretty basic one. Just like in
the SNES games, collect K-O-N-G along your travels for a 1-up.
Sweet digitalized ape graphics!
Level
2
For
the next level you will be travelling up into the clouds for
the whole length. Be weary of those wonderfully animated rope-climbing
Kremlins.
Level
3
The
third, and final, level is the most interesting of the three.
Diddy gets to morph into an animal (snake) for the remainder
of the stage. Hornet bees and pirate Kremlings firing nasty
cannons will give you the most trouble here.
