Longplay of Donkey Kong Jungle Beat (2009)

[@longplayarchive]

Long time coming, but here's the Wii version of Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. This one isn't played with the bongos, but the Wiimote and Nunchuck. There's a few changes made to the original version, namely the crests. This version doesn't feature silver, gold, or platinum crests. It features just crests. Depending on how many bananas you get, you get one to three crests. The platinum crests in the 2003 version require 1200+ bananas whereas in this version you get all three crests at just 1000 bananas. Easier? I think so, but I need to replay the 2003 version to confirm that. Anyway, I really enjoyed the stage design in this game. Each stage was wildly unique and fun to play through. For this video, all crests were obtained in all of the worlds. I have to re-do the GameCube version sometime soon for an all-platinum recording too.

This version is definitely the better one to play. This one doesn't have the bronze, silver, gold, and platinum crests like in the original. I would rank the crest levels in this order: 1st crest - Beginner rank, 2nd crest - Advanced rank, 3rd crest - Master rank. No idea why they dropped the fourth crest out from this version.

This is the most underrated amd Overlooked Donkey Kong game. Its right behind the DKC series for me.

[@yungwildandfreee8253]

This will forever be my favorite Donkey Kong game! Especially that jello level 😂 what a time fr

[@longplayarchive]

That's my favourite stage too!

[@BeauDuplechin]

This is one of 2 games that I know got ported to the Wii from the GameCube with new controls. DK Island Swing and Battle for Storm Hill are still bangers to listen to.

Woohoo, heck yeah! Thanks for uploading this!

[@longplayarchive]

Appreciate you checking back on it after suggesting the title

[@b.a.g-gomez2610]

​@@longplayarchive I appreciate you playing this! It's still my favorite DK game to this day! I would love to see it get a revival on Switch or a future console!

I do remember when I bought this game on the Wii since the classic 2004 GameCube game came out in 2009, I did completed it but the last level with the same 6 Bosses was very difficult to do while taking damage and losing bananas as health points when trying to win big points for extra bananas for over a thousand and receiving the final crest falling from the sky.

[@BeauDuplechin]

It all comes down to quick reflexes.

[@mario65446]

Did great! Only lost 100 points with sumo Kong! Very impressive!

[@dragorespillerofblood4884]

A part of me hopes they make a donkey kong movie with at least some of these characters

[@blestmusician2a.k.a.robert263]

I think… Every time after the level when you collect bananas… it would be better if it was faster!

[@BeauDuplechin]

Now, if only this version had multiplayer action.

[@beatricequeateh4756]

I remember this!

This version of the game is fine, but you really need to play it with the bongos. The motion controls are good, but they're just not the same as the bongos.

[@longplayarchive]

Yeah the bongos got me hyped up! Lol

[@Noahmediacorner]

He uses it in super smash bros as his final smash

[@MegamanNG]

Oh wait. Scratch that. I played this on the Gamecube and it had bongos. Here though, motion controls. Trying to get the platinum medals are a pain in the ass.

[@longplayarchive]

Yeah the platinum crest require 1200+ bananas iirc, whereas the third and final crest is obtained at 1000 bananas in the Wii version

[@MegamanNG]

@@longplayarchive figure they made it easier

[@DerrickPage465]

Agreed ​@@MegamanNG. But still, I'll play this game when I get a new Wii sooner or later!

[@MrGabeanator]

Perfect

[@EuSouRCS]

Do you used those bongos?

[@nintendorakyamato1859]

Wii remote and nunchuck
