I’m not sure if I’ve gone into much detail on here before, but the Super Nintendo was the first proper video game console I got in my youth. Having so many SNES games a moment’s touch away on a console I can play anywhere in the house is pretty darn tantalising, and it’s making a good substitute for the overall lack of games I currently have for the Switch (something I’m hoping to rectify in the near future) and having the ability to just stick Donkey Kong Country on during a lunch break or for a quick couple of levels before bed made returning to it a pleasure, especially as it’s still a lot of fun to play nearly sixteen years on from when I first played it. I will do my best to move away from the SNES for next week’s article, but even as I type that, I’ve already started having a go at Smash Tennis as well, so who even knows anymore? I decided to boot it up just to have a quick go, and after getting through the first world and having a lot of fun with it, I decided to just go the whole hog (or should that be the whole donkey?) and complete it again, which lead to Donkey Kong Country becoming this week’s topic. I’ve gone on record in the past here on Gaming Respawn that I consider “Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong’s Quest” to be my favourite game of all time, but I still have a healthy chunk of love for the original game in the series. After playing Pop’ N’ TwinBee last week, I had decided that I would move onto a different console for this week’s Retro Respawn, but then I noticed that two other games had been added to the SNES emulator, with one of them being Donkey Kong Country. Included within the membership cost is the ability to download emulators for the Nintendo Entertainment System and the Super Nintendo free from the Nintendo Store.
In last week’s column, I wrote about how I had finally gotten around to making use of the voucher my sister had gifted to me at Christmas for the Nintendo Switch online membership.
