Go bananas!

It's Barrel-Blasting Fun on Game Boy Advance!

Welcome to a place where ostriches wear running shoes, apes wear neckties and rhinoceros gracefully leap across gaping canyons with a style and flair that would make the great Evel Knievel envious. Welcome to Donkey Kong Country!

Features * The Super NES classic has been perfectly recreated on Game Boy Advance. Now you can experience the thumb-twitching, action-packed gameplay of Donkey Kong Country no matter where you are! * All-new GBA features include multiplayer minigames, a convenient save-anywhere feature, detailed stat screens that chart your progress and collectable character art. * Alternate between the strong (but slow) Donkey Kong and the more agile Diddy Kong as you battle wave after wave of banana-hungry Kremlings. * Team up with quirky animal pals like Rambi the Rhino and Enguarde the Dolphin to tackle the most maddening platform challenges K. Rool can serve up!

Donkey Kong Country is now better than ever thanks to some great special features exclusive to the GBA version of the game. Funky's Fishing is a new mini-game which challenges you to hook as many fish as you can within a time limit, and Candy's Dance Studio will test your rhythm with fun dance games. Either the main adventure or these new mini-games can be played with one or two players!

Other additions include collectable character art (earned by finding hidden cameras throughout the game), a detailed stat tracker and the oh-so-welcome ability to save your progress anywhere -- even mid-level! A new DK Attack mode ranks your performance on completed levels based on a number of factors. To get the best score, you'll have to exhibit near-perfect skill on each level.

Bottom Line

Donkey Kong Country is back, and it's better than ever. Whether you're looking for a nostalgic stroll through the jungle or you're new to the DKC phenomenon, Donkey Kong Country for Game Boy Advance does NOT disappoint.

Donkey Kong Country is an incredible island adventure. This game was the first to feature Diddy Kong, who plays Donkey Kong's sidekick. Challenged by the crazed tribe of reptilian Kremlings, they endeavor to get back their stolen banana hoard! Armed with lightning-quick moves, chest-pounding muscle and awesome aerial acrobatics, the duo is ready to face their cunning adversaries.

Donkey Kong's quirky family offers assistance throughout the game. Besides Diddy Kong, you'll meet Funky Kong, Cranky Kong and Candy Kong. You'll also get help from some of DK's animal friends: Rambi the rhino, Expresso the ostrich, Enguarde the swordfish, Squawks the parrot, and Winky the frog. All of the animal friends have their own unique abilities. For example, Rambi the rhino is the only animal in the game that can break into hidden caves by just ramming into walls.

This game has over 30 levels, plus dozens of hidden caves and secret rooms -- more than 100 areas in all. Breakthrough Advanced Computer Modeling (ACM) provides fully-rendered graphics that were once thought impossible on a 16-bit system.

K. Rool has stolen Donkey Kong's banana hoard. Now it's up to Donkey Kong and Diddy to track down the evil Kremling leader!

It's A Jungle In There!

This page features the Game Boy Color version of Donkey Kong Country. If you're looking for the Game Boy Advance version, click here.

When Rare created Donkey Kong Country for the Super Nintendo in 1994, its beautifully rendered graphics and massive worlds instantly redefined what it meant to experience a great game. Gamers were amazed at the sheer size of Donkey Kong's new adventure, and they were introduced for the very first time to a brand new character by the name of Diddy Kong.

Now, thanks to the power of Game Boy Color and Rare's expertise, the original creators of Donkey Kong Country have crammed the entire Super NES version into a Game Boy cartridge without scaling down any of the classic levels or changing the gameplay. Every enemy, every friend, and every secret from the original game is back -- and you'll even find a Lost Level and extra bonuses created exclusively for the Game Boy Color version.

In case you weren't lucky enough to experience the fun of Donkey Kong Country the first time around, here's the full simian scoop to bring you up to speed. After a long career of kidnapping princesses and thoughtlessly throwing barrels, Donkey Kong finally decided that it was time to settle down in Donkey Kong Country and survive off of the massive banana hoard he had collected over the years.

His retirement began peacefully enough. His days were spent palling around with Diddy Kong and his nights were filled with romantic strolls through Barrel Cannon Canyon with his beautiful girlfriend Candy Kong. DK and Diddy made a lot of unusual friends on the island, including an ostrich named Expresso and a rhino named Rambi. The pair even found time to visit old Cranky Kong, an elderly video game star whose glory days were long gone ...

Donkey Kong's early retirement was cut short when he came home to his treehouse one day and found that his entire banana hoard had been stolen! The culprit was an evil villain named K. Rool, who led a powerful Kremling army made up of the most vile inhabitants of DK Isle.

At that moment, Donkey Kong knew that his days of relaxation were over. With Diddy's help, DK struck out to scour the six worlds of DK Isle, each of which was filled with five dangerous sub-levels and ultimately guarded by a horrendous boss.

Donkey Kong's feud with K. Rool eventually spread over two more Super Nintendo games, three Game Boy games and even a Nintendo 64 adventure. Now you can relive DK and Diddy's original Super Nintendo adventure on Game Boy Color, almost exactly as it first appeared in 1994.

It was an amazing accomplishment for Rare to fit the entire Donkey Kong Country game into a tiny Game Boy Color cartridge, but believe or not they even managed to squeeze in some extra bonuses that weren't in the original version. These bonus features make use of the unique capabilities of the Game Boy Color hardware and add a whole new level of fun to Donkey Kong Country.
