No, it's not a complex game with much replay value. I did play M&M3 last year which was my second or third.

I remember getting into emulation with Nesticle around 1997. I would spend hours reading all the info on Zophar's Domain. MAME seemed like the greatest achievement of computer science in history. I never did figure out how the fuck Pasofami was supposed to work.
But none of that was "retro". I don't think I even had a PlayStation by that point. NES games were already pretty old, but it all still felt pretty contemporary. Then ZSNES came out, and HOLY FUCK FINAL FUCKING FANTASY V AND SEIKEN FUCKING DENSETSU 3. It was as exciting as a brand new game release. It wasn't "retro" yet.
I feel like there's a lot of hipsterism today, this "only 90s kids will understand" kind of attitude. Well I'm an 80s kid, in fact I just barely missed being a 70s kid, and I think that's full of shit.
When did "retrogaming" turn into some kind of lifestyle choice?

Good new boys, amazon ships games internationally now. What does this mean? That if you have a chipped console or one that is region free then you can buy games (Only looked at snes games so far) For only $5

Worse experience right there. Enjoy the ripoffs and amazon not caring.

I closed the video because his monotone voice bored me and he's just yet another attempt to be the next big e-celeb, it didn't do anything funny or original. The fact he only has 19 views leads me to believe you're Cardboard Box Animation trying to shill your video on /vr/

Is OP right? Is this 26 year old game that millions of gamers played deemed the very best because no one else thought of this recycled idea well before youtube was thought on paper?

Because that's the kind of company NEC is. Look at the PC-88, PC-98 or PC-FX and the PCE almost seems too Riajuu.

Can anybody tell me what is supposed to be good about this game?
It's this very monotone gameplay running around without a purpose. All those barrells and bananas have no purpose. I was really bored and never finished this game. I have kind of an aversion against it. The only thing I liked was the atari retro dad talking like us here on /vr/.
I think Mario is a superior game. I mean the nes trilogy. Mario World is kinda so-so. What makes Mario gameplay so superior to Donkey Kong? Is it saving the princess? Is it the awesome speed, flow and the BOING sound? Is is the creative level design and the awesome music?
I think Donkey Kong Land Country is a really uninspiring game.
Can fans explain to me what they find good about this game?

I don't like it either to be honest. Remember when it used to look amazing? Turns out all that rendering was covering up uninspired gameplay. The second game is quite good though.

I found some Quake prototypes the other day. Not Qtest1, they're versions that are much closer to release but they have some big differences. Several map differences and an entirely different END map which is impossible to finish as far as I can tell.
