Donkey Kong Country (SNES) - 101% Complete Longplay

A longplay of Donkey Kong Country.
Donkey Kong Country is a 1994 platforming video game developed by Rare and published by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was first released on November 21, 1994 in North America, on November 24, 1994 in Europe, and on November 26, 1994 in Japan with under the name Super Donkey Kong . Donkey Kong Country was the first Donkey Kong game that was not produced or directed by Shigeru Miyamoto, the character's original creator. It was directed by Tim Stamper instead, although Miyamoto was still involved with the project.
In Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong, together with his nephew and sidekick Diddy Kong, must recover his stolen hoard of bananas from King K. Rool and the Kremlings. Upon investigating the empty "Kong's Banana Hoard", located directly underneath his home in the Kongo Jungle, Donkey Kong embarks on an adventure throughout his native Donkey Kong Island. While collecting bananas on the island's vastly different regions, Donkey Kong must defeat many enemies, including the reptilian Kremlings, and other hazardous creatures native to the island. Aiding him in his quest are some of the other Kongs: Diddy accompanies Donkey Kong on his quest, Cranky provides hints (and comic relief), Candy operates the island's save points, and Funky offers a means of transportation around the island. Also assisting Donkey Kong at times are various 'animal buddies' (Rambi the rhino, Expresso the ostrich, Enguarde the swordfish, Winky the frog, and Squawks the parrot), each with their own unique abilities. After progressing through the island's different areas, Donkey Kong ultimately arrives at a pirate ship called Gangplank Galleon, where Donkey Kong's nemesis and the leader of the Kremlings, King K. Rool, awaits with Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard. Upon his defeat, the game ends with a final shot of Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard restored to its former glory, filled with bananas once again.

I'm 47 years old and my mind is blown. I played the sheet out of this while I was in college decades ago. I can't recall my percent but it was no where near 100%. I decided to attempt a complete game today and broke out my cart. After finding myself at the end of the game an no where near 100%...yet again...I asked google to help me and I find this video. FFS, I didn't even know how to set barrels down. I managed to earn a degree in civil engineering and couldn't figure this out.

[@birdfanboi]

I remember back in the day being very impressed of that clamping jaw sound effect those mini gators make, I often fond myself emulating it.

[@dominicvideos-gx8mx]

I like the sound, too

[@analanus3131]

By the way, they're called Klaptraps.

[@kimmolaine8069]

I still make that sound when I see them. :D

[@bradlieone]

This person just ruined my childhood. I actually thought i did well with 100%, now i see there was actually 101 :(

[@thegreendragon5390]

You have no idea how helpful this was while I was trying to find the secret areas in this game on the Super NES classic. Thanks to you; I am now at 100%, and am almost ready to go take on Gangplank Gallion. Just one last trial and I finally beat my first video-game. Wish me luck.

I don't care what other people say, I think this style of pre-rendered graphics still look amazing.

Oil drum valley has my most favorite sounds track in this game

[@Navazarian]

"I did this using one life and I took less than an hour" Haha! Still makes me laugh just as much as it did back then. Nostalgia.

[@Adamguy2003]

I always love that little hooting sound DK makes @ 0:36 (He also does it if you make him wait for long, while chestbeating). I remember as a kid, my best friend used to nickname the swordfish "Excuseme," because whenever he had it ram an enemy, he'd say "Excuse me!"

[@gamejunkie1597]

Everything about this game was awesome to me. The SNES was the first *real* game console I ever played on and DK Country along with Super Mario Worlds basically made my childhood. Even though I never got too far within one sitting, I still loved it. Big thanks to Nintendo for all the amazing memories.

For me this game probably hits its peak at Tanked Up Trouble 1:28:30! The music, environment and game play are incredible

[@demonangel00]

no joke, this game has some amazing memories for me. most of all though, the thing that STILL impresses me about this is the Music and how hauntingly beautiful some of the tracks are. great play through!

[@RunMeThrough]

Thank you sooo much Amy! Really appreciate the time and effort you put into this game. Idk how many times you played it, but you made it look effortless. I followed your video and got 101% for the first time in my life. Now it’s time for Diddy’s Kong Quest!

[@shadow222e]

I love your long plays of these games. I remember how much trouble I had with some of these lvls lol. Had to play my brother’s saved game to see what later levels were like.

[@andrewwilson1212]

Loving the longplay video of this game. DKC1 is an okay game to me. There are 2 things I like about watching this (while bringing back memories). 1) The water stages & 2) all of the music that stands out. It's the thought that counts in the end.

[@Spanky8402]

holly cow, I subscribed to you, I can't believe how good you are at almost every game I seen so far. I watched a few of the sonic games and then I am still currently watching this one. it is mind blowing how good you are. I am good at sonic games but you blow me away with your skills.

It was always funny to me how easy it was to rack up lives in this and Super Mario World. Well done. You probably had over 200 lives accumulated.

[@lafrankmclemore4371]

Wow, I didn't get one little obscure secret I saw in level 3 (the one with all the barrels and you ride Expresso like everywhere) kept me from having 101 file. I remember seeing my Uncle do it and only completing the game once. I was only able to get to 100% file. Seriously nice job. P.s. The sound bite for the heavy enemies are funny as hell--orrggh! Lol!

[@plasma9706]

Bit of a warning, Torchlight Trouble contains a white flash every time Donkey Kong turns around, so beware.

[@pirate_cove_man]

Guys, I have a tip. This counts for DKC 1-3, if you want to have a specific Kong appear on the map, play the level with the OTHER Kong, and switch to the Kong you want on the map at the goal. That way if you get hit, you play the rest with the Kong you want on the map. Just make sure to switch to the other Kong after you destroy a DK Barrel.

[@rosskerr1439]

We only had the second game growing up, so this video answers a few questions.

Hello Amy Rose, I am a new subscriber and KZbin recommended your video to me. This video guide is great, you just need to show if the game says 100% when it is complete. Now I'm going to see the rest of the games like Don King Kong and Rockman, greetings from Argentina 👏🇦🇷😃

[@delano2004]

i learned a trick growing up when doing barrel cannon canyon in the first secret room when you jump in the first barrel, keep pressing the button you press to shoot out of the barrel repeatedly until you get to the end no need to wait until they line up as you will hit each barrel on time

[@blaizebleu4u]

Poison Pond always made me kind of sad. The music and the polluted water with all the poor animals was the first time I realized as a kid that we humans are disgusting to mother Earth. I knew some where on Earth this was real. It's crazy that a video game was my first lesson in pollution and human kind being gross...😢

Eco Fighters and Captain Planet helped raised awareness in young kids.

[@domymbd]

When I was younger, I used to rush this actual level to the end within a few minutes, simply because I though the polluted green water would eventually kill you! :P

The Kremlins were the cause of that polluted water. They in fact created all those industrial complex in that stage. So yea....

Yo you missed a secret, in the industry type level when on the first mission when you do the secret with the 3 barrles and you go for the barrle with the single banana in in you get a barrle. That much you did however you broke the other wall open in the secret but dident go through, to go through simply jump with diddy holding the barrle into the wall and you will go through to the next secret. If you throw the barrle or just run the secret freezes and ends you have to jump at it

there's actually a short cut in 47:04 when you reach the lower barrel shoot it facing down, you'll head to a barrel that takes you to the end.
