Thanks, Taser
hotttt
U sure?
Wow is it as lame as all their shows
You Sonyans will always be mad because you will never create a character that becomes your mascot…
Take this human filth remedy for your butthurt…
What company other that Ninty even USES mascots nowadays? That kind of marketing gimmick died out ages ago
And yet our empire still thrives on it…
Look who’s talking while not having any other adaptions outside of games and their crappy ass online services.
This was literally the best thing ever
I just watched some episodes, and I’ve decided that I will dedicate my life to destroying every copy to save DK’s image.
I want this.
Really? Did Nintendo approve the release of this in DVD? oh boy, if Nintendo is going to scratch the bottom of the barrel, then cant wait for the release of the Super Hornio Brothers on DVD sooner or later.
Hoo Hah
Hoo Hah
Donkey Kong!
No blu ray lol?
What is the need for it, the show was probably done in videotape, therefore SD.
Then why I do see stuff from the 90s. Specifically animation being released on Blu Ray?
Oh wow, I hope they’ll bring this to Europe too. The show used to be on German TV too, with actual German dubs, a very long time ago, so chances shouldn’t be all too low, I’d think.
BANANA SLAMMA!
Brilliant? Really?
So instead of bringing the old games to the Wii U VC, (which are better than the new games) they bring the show to DVD? Man nintendo can’t get more stupid.
The originals being better than Tropical Freeze? HA! Please take off your nostalgiagoogles and share whatever you’re smoking.
Truth hurts kid, too bad you weren’t born in the 80’s to appreciate what’s a true DK platformer
What are nostalgiagoogles? Is that something apart of google?
And I don’t know what’s so funny. It’s truth. Donkey kong Country Returns was even better than Tropical Freeze. The music nor level designs were as good as the original 2 (the third was not good).
Here’s a reminder of how silly this post of yours is now since the Donkey Kong Country games are now on Wii U VC. lol
Can’t wait to be driving around in a fancy car.
The show was okay for its time, but it’s really weird now. Like, holy Hell, what a trip.
Why not BD?
Because, what’s the need for it, this show was most likely done in SD.
I hated that show as a 4 year old. Don’t support crap.
It’s crap to you doesn’t mean it’s crap to everyonelse.

At least this is watchable unlike glee
No, no its not.
They’re both unwatchable. Nobody wins! (Except us Breaking Bad watchers for obvious reasons.)
This series were lame back in the past.
Sooo… Today it is still lame.
Collection item.
Feature length.
Never knew Donkey Kong had a T.V. series of his own O,o
Don’t watch it, you’ll see DK in a different light.
Oh no. You have a better chance loving DK by playing the original SNES Country Trilogy than watch this shit. lol
All I remember from this show was a song or something about a golden/crystal banana or something…
aah. I’m not sure… I don’t think it’s my kinda thing. XD
But see little Donkey of the Jungle, the Kong to my King…you are all about that animal friend, you should have every thing Donkey Kong here…WATCH IT IN A HIGH VOLUME EVERY DAY AND AND SEE HOW IT FEELS LIKE TO SPEAK WITH A SCREEN OF A VOICE DONKEY…..after that, you help with stopping amiibo see?
Wat.
Shhhh…you too will help me, these amiibo, we cannot let the Nintendo show that the New 3DS is dependent on the amiibo because of its frying power without it….you, me, and the little animal jungle friend, will will stop this…do not cry about Pikachu amiibo, everything shall clear up..
Wat.
…….just come to my lair.
Come to my lair between the mountains where we discuss how amiibo will fall…..
Oh I see it makes perfect sense now! lol I watched the first few episodes before, the animation is quite disturbing! it depends on how much they want for it, $10.00 sure, but beyond that I think i’ll pass.
No, make everybody watch it, but find a way to secretly give them a warning about the disasters of the amiibo on thee New 3DS!! YES, YOU SHALL ALTER PEOPLE’S CHILDHOOD CARTOON WITH HIDDEN AMIIBO MESSAGES. Let’s do that, and make the videos cheap so that even MORE people have access to it…and know the truth about the impact amiibo has on New 3DS…..through disturbing Donkey Kong animations…yes, yes, I know this will make you look bad like Donkey of the jungle my friend, but it’s the only way…
I got a new megaman today, do you think it would help our cause if I smashed it?
NO. WRONG BAD BAD. Have a filming device over there….TURN ON filming device, and put NEW 3DS onfront of film, and film the 3 months there. Turn ON SYSTEM, put amiibo beside, DO NOT CONNTECT AMIIBO TO NEW 3DS. Film for 3 month straight…see how new 3DS corrupts without amiibo power, and that video will be THE proof. But you will ask, but see, I cannot film for all 3 months! That is why you will invent the solution to alter the file size to make a 3 month long film, the size of a 3 minute video. YOU WILL INVENT. Then, you will post that video, and it will be the proof of how not connecting amiibo for 3 months will ruin the new 3DS without amiibo power, how they need to change the new 3DS to not rely on amiibo power. THEN AMIIBO WILL DOOM AND EVERYONE WILL SEE IT IS NOT VERY IMPORTANT.
hmmn, this is my burden to bare. I see that now, but can we at least use the eagles, it is such a long way there. XD
NO. We shall use Gaepora Vaepora, that piece of owl. Remember, always say no if he tries to talk to you talk to you, annoying animal. DO NOT LET HIM MARRY YOU, DONKEY MONKEYS AND OWLS GO BAD TOGETHER.
Good to know! XD
Um…YES! I used to rent this show from my local video store all the time as a kid. And at that time I’ve never even played Donkey Kong.
I’m sorry, Diddy Kong’s voice is cancer in vocal form.
His voice in the German dubbing was even worse, if that makes you feel better, lmao.
Stunning CGI animation, eh?
My guess is that those retards have missed Toy Story around the same year this POS dared came to light. lol Toy Story 1 animation was far more phenomenal.
This series definitely showed that using CGI apes in the 90s would be a huge mistake, so if you didn’t believe the makers of Congo that using CGI for the white apes would have been a horrible idea for that movie, this series will show you that they were not kidding. If I didn’t know how different an ape looks from a humanoid crocodile, I would swear up & down that Donkey Kong & the other primates were lizards, not apes.
Donkey Kong Country had a tv series? I had a VHS tape called “Donkey Kong Country: Legend Of The Crystal Coconut” years ago. But I thought that was just one random movie they decided to make. I never knew it was a series.
@GOD But I am so curious right now… Come on, just a peak!

TV Show
I find this cartoon to be silly as fuck and stopped watching it after a couple of episodes. Pokemon was great but got repetitively stale and boring plus Kirby was decent but hardly ever explored anything about Kirby him/herself or whatever gender it is. lol
The CGI DK series from the 90’s is terrible. It’s really shitty. Don’t watch.
This did not Expand Dong!
I loved the few episodes I saw of this! Gonna have to get this!
Being reminded of this CGI cartoon series in the 90s reminds me of how thankful I am that the movie Congo used guys in ape suits instead of CGI apes like they originally planned. 90s CGI: good for lizards & dinosaurs but very bad for creatures with hair, like apes & monkeys. I’m glad CGI has advanced to the point to where it doesn’t look stupid/silly when a character with hair or a hairy animal is made into a CGI character, unless it’s a B movie that can’t afford to use the high tech CGI of A movies. Of course, it sucks that a lot of movies are using CGI more & you only see costumes & prosthetics in rare occasions.
