Looking at all those details, you wouldn’t think that Gameboy could have fit all that info into a game. That’s honestly impressive for that time period
I remember playing it on the GBC when I was 8 and taking forever to beat the intro levels thinking that it was just the same old game. When DK got back up and the next screen was completely different I nearly lost my underdeveloped pre-pubescent mind. I realized in that moment that nothing was real and everything society had taught me up to that point was all a lie.
When I first played the Gameboy game I really did think it was just a port of the arcade game, and thought I'd be playing the same few levels on repeat like in the NES version. Then, I was surprised to find out there was more. Oh so much more! And the little scenes in between worlds that were like a wordless tutorial for the new mechanics. Top tier Gameboy game!
That GBA donkey kong you showed was the first video game I ever owned. It blew my mind and set me up for disappointment because you weren't kidding, it was incredibly in-depth.
Dunkey is such a great content creator that he didn’t even make a big deal or announcement about the return of Donkey Kong December. He just continues the tradition out of the kindness of his heart. Only something I can get from MonkeyManDunkey
This was one of my favorite gameboy games as a kid. always thought it was ridiculous how good it was. this and super mario land 2 punched far above there weight and still hold up today.
If Dunkey actually just releases these episodic instalments of a video essay that goes over the entire history of the donkey Kong franchise I will be extremely happy
Actually one of my favorite Gameboy games as a kid. I got stuck on the airplane level so long, then, one day, I finally beat it! Such an achievement as a kid.
Dunkey really is the most consistent youtuber of his generation. I don't see anybody else honoring Donkey Kong December

I’m a big fan of these video game histories. The twist of comedy you add makes it much more entertaining than other documentaries.

How are you so good at this? I'd happily watch a full documentary in this style (but I imagine it would be exhausting to make)
I’m very happy that Dunkey is keeping the Donkey Kong December tradition up
DK94 is absolutely amazing and it is criminal how overlooked it has been over de last 2 decades by the internet!
Dunkey is one of the few who brings us together. He’s a real one ladies and gentlemen
Yes! I'm so glad you spotlighted this game! An absolute gem. I sunk many hours into this game. The final boss was so epic too.
Watching how the mechanics of each character progressed over various installments is so awesome. Totally changed the way I look at the games.

I don't why, but I felt immense goosebumps towards the end of the video, as Funky's Fugue fades in and the anticipation in Dunky's voice.
video game history with dunkey is a great change of pace
This was one of my favorite gameboy games as a kid. always thought it was ridiculous how good it was. this and super mario land 2 punched far above there weight and still hold up today.
Again Dunkey makes such a great content and listening to his narration of DK games is just so enjoyable to hear. Keep up the awesome work Dunkey.
Thanks for uploading this in time for your bi-annual tradition of celebrating Funky Kong February, always my favorite part of the week.
