Donkey Konga 2 - Gamecube

Sadly Donkey Konga 2 was way ahead of its time. I remember hearing about this game back when the first one came out, and thinking it was a strange idea. Kongas as controllers didn't make any sense. Where were the arrows? Where were my A and B buttons?The idea, although great, didn't really catch on and this gem slid into the realm of the forgotten video games.When Guitar Hero came out everyone flocked to purchase it, but no one realized that donkey konga was the exact same thing, and possibly more fun.the 2-4 game play is better that most games, most defiantly more enjoyable than any guitar game. the notes are on barrels rolling across the screen from right to left. you ether hit the left or right bongo, or both, or clap to earn points and eventually be crowned donkey konga king. There are freestyle modes, and minigames, and new songs can be earned and unlocked through the in game store.You use the konga controllers to play along with popular songs from video games, and in the case of number 2, pop songs from the late 90's early 00's. If the series had continued the songs would have continued to be updated and the game would have stayed upbeat, but as it is several years old now you may not recognize some of the songs on this title.One player mode can get boring fast, so I would suggest starting with 2 bongos. the more players you have the fore fun this game becomes. Even the smallest child will enjoy this one. At one point during a family get together we had the full 4 players clapping and smacking the bongos in time to a uptempo classical melody and the fun and energy was so great that most of my family went home and purchased this game for their own families.In conclusion, BUY THIS GAME!!! You will not regret it.

The first Donkey konga was good because at least there, you had fun, original nintendo songs. But here, it's all a bunch of pop songs i haven't even heard of because they were only popular at the time. Had they have done this game entirely of original nintendo songs/beats, this game would have been amazingly fun, but instead it was brought down by the terrible pop songs that reside within the disk, if you want the better game, get Donkey Konga 1 or Donkey kong junglebeat.

If you haven't played this game. I urge you too It has a lot of Classics you can get behind and James out to. I mean it's Donkey Konga........2

Very fun game that everyone can enjoy at a party!

This game was so incredible it's obsurd

My grandsons love playing with this game. It is a little difficult for them (Ages 4 and 3) but they like it. I ordered the bongos from someone else and that makes it more fun for the little guys.

bought as gift. The recipient loved it.

this game is okay but the music is too rockish for me. But its still fun and challenging to play. Donkey konga 1 had better songs
