DKC trilogy on SNES is honestly my favorite trilogy in gaming. DKC1 has the best atmosphere, DKC2 has the best level design, DKC3 has the best side content.

Just play them, they're fun >_>

1 is easy. 2 ramps up the difficulty right from the start. It assumes that you played DK1

They're all fantastic

2 is the best one overall but they're all worth playing

I've beaten each one at least a dozen times, been playing them since I was a kid

Something about the general vibe in that game is subtly offputting and I don't know why. There's just this weird sense of dreariness that permeates the entire game.

They're the greatest platformers of all time. The soundtrack in DKC2 is some of the best you'll hear in all of gaming.

Yeah

The bosses are weird af, you get sawed in half, zapped by lightning, etc

It feels like stepping outside the borders of dkc to the real weird shit of the "country"

They are great.
The graphics are made with the scanlines you got on the SDTV in mind, which makes them look extra weird on a HDTV.

They're hard as hell but I think it's the second one mostly. Most people who play it have been playing it for decades.

I beat all the "final bosses," but didn't collect everything in the first, or beat the last Lost World level or the boss after it in 2. I'm pretty much done, lol. I didn't miss much.

DKC goes to 101%

DKC2 goes to 102%

DKC3 is a little different:
If you play normally, you can get up to 103%
But if you enter a cheat that removes all DK barrels and Checkpoint barrels, you can get 105% and you also get a Cranky Kong trophy on the hi score screen

Ah, thanks for the info. I didn't even know about 105% on 3, so I guess I really do have to go back and complete each game sometime, lol.

You do a sequence on the file select for a blank file (LRR LRR LR LR) and type in "TUFST" and then start the file and you're good to go.

Id argue the gap wasn't that bad for me being part of those who played it for decades. Also was in the middle of a platforming kick already. Regardless, it was super fun and never felt like I was carrying lol. Not in a dramatic sense at least :p. Like 60/40
