Title: Donkey Konga
Post by: Slab on October 20, 2003, 09:38:02 PM

Anyone excited about this game...after looking at the Japanese Trailer I think this game looks really fun. Check it out for yourselves...the trailer is 8MB big though...just a warning for those 56k'ers

I am very excited for it!  Games that are odd/different somehow appeal to me.  I love Samba De Amigo for the Dreamcast and DDR is awesome as well.  If it doesn't make its way to US I'll definately be importing it.

why would the drums be sold seperatly? that makes as much sence as having a light gun game on a system with no light gun

they are gonna be like 28 dollars in Japan so expect them to cost around 25 here

Also how does it recognize when you clap?

Does anyone know if the game will be playable with a controller?  Like will one drum go to one button, another to another button, and clapping to another button?  That would be nice for multiplayer seeing as drumming is kind of similar to pressing a button...

From what I've seen, multiplayer is done with just one drum...One person drums, while the others clap...Neat concept

I believe there is multi player where everyone has a drum too...i think i remember seeing a screen shot of 4 different drum trails...

In that trailer video, it shows the brother and sister both using a st of drums at the same time.

The drum pick up the clap noise from a microphone build into it.

Clapping is kind of moot then in a competitive match huh....seeing as if one person hits it right on, the other's controller will register it as well.

I love Japanese commercials.  They funny

I think it would be a great marketing idea, especially with a game like this, to just release the japanese commercial here in the states...changing only the info at the end of the commercial.
