Board 8 > Rate the Game: Donkey Konga

(+) Yeah! (+)

Rules:
- Rate from 0.1 to 10 (one decimal places is fine, more than that and I'll round for you). I'd prefer if 5 were an average rather than 7.
- Unless a specific version is stated, rate the best version that you have played on games released on multiple platforms
- You may vote for any games you want that have been rated before at any time. You may also change your vote at any time.
- No alts, no joke voting, no “purposeful downvoting” - you all know this.
- Please only vote if you've played enough of the game to be able to rate it.
- You may nominate as many games as you want on any given day. Multiple noms of the same game aren't necessary.

Lunar places where it does just to show us that Kazooie dropped below Tooie during a recent string of retro votes.

Today's game is arguably Nintendo's most notable title in the music/rhythm genre

9.5/10

Loved it, but I'd say EBA is their most notable rhythm game.

9/10, it could have used more songs. I also have a big cardboard display for this game.

3.5/10

Even in '04, when it was originally released, it already felt dated in many aspects. Eight years have passed since then... man, I bet it's downright cringeworthy now. The DK Bongo controller was a big mistake, too - can you believe those things were originally $30 apiece?

Is it any better without the drums? Coz I hated the drums.

if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it do the other trees laugh?

Both Lunar and Donkey Konga get a 7.5

3/10

Not a good game. Not terribly fun, and not the greatest of music selection either.

4/10

It was fun for the five hours I needed to 100% it.

And ironically, its theme song and the She'll Be Coming Around The Mountain remixes are hilarious.

That said, it's a rhythm game that includes She'll Be Coming Around The Mountain.

Definitely not a fan of the genre, but I had some brief fun with this game.

Shadow of the Colossus: 10/10

Yes, I'm currently playing through it for the first time and it has definitely earned a spot among my favorite games of all time.
