Episode 14: Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Quest (SNES)

We're continuing our Donkey Kong miniseries this week with Donkey Kong Country 2 for the Super Nintendo. The second in the iconic Donkey Kong Country trilogy was released in November 1995 and quickly became one of the best games on the SNES. In this episode, Deucy and I talk about the development and origins of Dixie Kong, including the insane amount of possible names that were pitched for her and how badly people missed Donkey Kong. We had a lot of memories about this one and share how our most recent playthroughs compared to what we thought of it in 1995. The comparisons become a lot more interesting since both of us recently played through the first DKC! This episode was really fun to record since we both have so much history with DKC2 and made us more excited to get to DKC3 and Donkey Kong 64. Follow us and let us know what you think and what games you'd like to see us cover!

 

Next week: Donkey Kong Country 3 (SNES)
