>flops and kills the franchise for almost a decadeWhy did it fail?
>>12870501shmup adjacent
>First DK game made by Nintendo and not Ikegami Tsushinki>It's complete shitGee, I wonder why
>>12870501>The game about blowing smoke up a monkeys asshole. Always makes me laugh
>>12870501DK3 is more fun than DK and I am tired of pretending otherwise.
>>12870501i've never even played it and I havent got a clue why. what the fuck is this even real?
franchise fatigue
>>12870538But Nintendo eventually ended up being better. Mario Bros. is better than DK, DK Jr, and Popeye combined.
>>12870501this game mogs Galaga. i always go crazy on the fire button once i get the golden bug smoke
>>12870635>this game mogs GalagaMaybe on planet retard
>>12870501I wish I could say this was the lamest DK game, but DK Jr. Math exists.
>>12870659HAHA IMAGINE ONLY LOVING THE CLASSICS AND NOTHING ELSE PROOF YOUR TASTE IS SHITE POINT AND LAUGH FAGGOTS AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>12870762huh?
It's a generic shoot em up instead of a proto-platformer like DK and Jr
>>12870501goatse

Sex with Stanley
>>12871061what kind of retard uses pesticide against a gorilla???
>>12871109any mammal would have an issue with pesticide being blasted up its asshole
>>12870501>get eaten by bugs when you fuck up and dieThat shit scared me when I was a young shota.
>>12870573the only good part of dk1 is the barrel level, everything else sucks ass
>>12871181literally the opposite is true
>>12870501It's not DK, but Stanley. When has Stanley ever starred in another Nintendo game?
>>12871521I was going to be cheeky and say Green House but apparently that actually released before DK3Someone really looked at this and thought to themselves "Yep, this is the future of our King Kong derivative franchise."
>>12871590>Green HouseClearly they were high.
>>12870501Because it was dogshit simple as. I had 50-in-1 as a kid and even then when I was 6 years old or something that just thought all video games are awesome, I remember being like "wtf is this shit" comparing DK1&2 to 3
It still makes me mad that DK. Classics doesm't have this on it.It's fun.
>>12870573If you liked it so much, why were you pretending to not like it?
>>12871593No, tripping. Shrooms we’re a big thing in Japan in the 80s
>>12871109>what kind of retard uses pesticide against a gorilla???Isn't this happening right now with orangutans in SEA?Didn't this happen in Nam with humans? Shit fucked up
>>12873291Agent Orange
>>12870610Extra points for bonzi buddy.
>>12873379That's a herbicide
>>12873434Fucks up mammals too
>>12871590There's a Game & Watch "Donkey Kong 3" too that's very much its own game rather than a take on the arcade game.
>>12874683The Game & Watch Gallery had a nice conversion.
>>12870501Great game. One of the best shooters
>>12874818stanley... forgotten...
>>12870875>It's a generic shoot em upIt could hardly be further from generic. There aren't many shooters as unusual as DK3
>>12874843Only in a B-Game modus.
>>12870501Shmup instead of platformer, is probably the reason it failed, player preference wise. But I think it being a conversion kit instead of its own cab. Is the reason why it failed numbers wise. No arcades were going to pull the popular originals to replace it with this.
>>12870573DK3 is a lot of fun
