Ooooooh! I never understood the left-side rivets strategy. I thought it was just optimally timed to coincide with grabbing the hammers to get more points, not that it grouped them all up to one side by force! Brilliant, this is going to net me so many points on my PB.

Perfect video. Thanks

Is there anything predictable about whether or not a barrel will roll down a ladder?

He made that first stage to look so easy 😂 I've probably played it hundreds of times and have Maybe a 10% success rate at best

I cannot learn anything from this video created in an incorrect aspect ratio!

Save Pauline!

Obviously your playing emulation, but why so many lives? 5, 6? Huh? Donkey Kong, you get 3 Lives to start. Period.

Donkey Kong is a knock off of Agnes From Despicable Me and my gosh I have a little Bill

those springy things come pretty fast and often at the higher levels. can't seem to get past that.

I hope this strat applies well to that DK64 segment

42 anniversary of donkey kong

Internet archaeology

Just started playing this game on classic NES Nintendo

Is there a pattern to the bouncy things on the elevator map? I think all the maps are straightforward except for the bouncy things on the higher level maps.

Who is watching this in 2020?

Curious to see if this'll work for the DK64 version; I've noticed that the level order is different between the arcade version and the N64 version, but the 4 levels themselves are the same. Otherwise, all I've caught onto is that you can manipulate the RNG by pressing A at the intro screen at different times, but the third level kills me regardless. The order of jumping you brought up might help me a lot; I'll have to practice that. I'm bookmarking this for reference.

I’ve always wondered and I never seen this happened before. But you know the two ladders that’s between the girl and the ape deploying barrels. I’ve always wondered if Mario can climb on those two ladders? Also too in the pie factory level, why is it that you only get on the level where the ape is to finish the level rather than making your way to the girl?

Nice.

Does this work DK 64 ?

First level cheat / bug - climb first ladder - nudge right and then jump off the screen to the second level.

This is such a wholesome video

Thanks for the video! I have trouble with the higher level elevator stages. Once I get to the top, I can't figure out how to time it to make it to the ladder. Any tips?

There used to be a cheat when we played on the first level. You would jump off the side and it went onto another level.

I know this is an old vid, but these are great tips and strategies for a Beginner. A lot of people want to play this game and once they do, they find out how challenging it really is. This video is not about High Scores or Point Pressing. It’s about showing players (Mostly New), how to get through all the Stages. After you can easily get through Stages using these techniques or techniques like these, then you can start going for High Scores. This video will absolutely help you develop a Foundation for DK. After you have that foundation, then go and watch Chien or Weibe High Score tactics. Excellent video, thanks for the upload!

Your so good and I subscribed

this reminds me of that movie the king of kong I never knew there was so much strategy for this game but I always loved retro games and this make me appreciate it even more

3:52 My bad I am a dumbass. Great tip sucker.

in donkey Kong computer keep hitting space bar and get up to the 2nd row

THANKS DUDE ,,,,,

Impressive game play👍

Thx for these tips now I can maybe beat my donkey kong

Great job blocking your score progression with our web address. F-

good job

pac man

3rd level you jump once as you are running, then jump another time when the blue barrel reaches the back of your feet for some points, no stopping involved. :)

Don't forget the point pressing you can do on the rivet stages! You can get 300 points for every 100 pts that drop off the timer.

great!! thanks!!

Search for "mame tutorial" on youtube. Mame is a great emulator for old arcade games.

does anybody know how to get this game without actually buying the arcade game itself .... ive been looking for it for a long time ..... thanks..

You spelled "arcade" wrong

What is it called? The original ROM? I have a few, most notably the US Set 1 version.

Not table-top, cocktail table version is what I meant. The one where you sat down to play rather than stand.

Dexman, I'll say this, you leave a lot of points on the board. All the bonus things that you should pick up to increase your score, you just ignore them. And on that elevator screen instead of jumping to the rivet you jump to, you can jump to the higher one. But again, on that screen you totally ignore points that are just sitting there. I need to find the table-top version of this game, not the stand-up one, and post a vid. Me and some friends used to routinely score over 600,000 points on .25c

It's all about timing on that one. God, I remember working in a pizza joint when I was 16 and this game was out, we'd have all the DK players close the store, the manager played too, and we'd have DK tournaments all night long. We'd get games that were 850,000 to 835,000... in other words, one game, two guys, could take a LONG time! But that elevator stage you mention is all about position on the top and timing. I need to find a way to get this game - the original - I miss it so much!!!

How could i to have this wonderful videogame in my computer totally free from Internet? I like it since 1984, i remember.

once again bruins fans = cumquads

one of the hardest games ever made lol

You will get a much higher score if you utilize both hammers. Stay absolutely still until he throws the blue barrel (or until the fireball comes up a ladder), and you will get about 3K just on barrel smashing. Also, you should learn to work the barrels more - if you're under a ladder, they will always come down that ladder, but you can also make them come down a ladder in front or behind you by doing a quick shake of the joystick.
