I just visited your site, and I just came back from my vacation, and this is the first time that I've visited it with its new look. Very good! Well done, Donkey Kong! The fresh, new feel to the Donkey Kong Jungle is a big plus. With great webmasters like us giving our sites new make-overs and totally renovating them, Donkey Kong Country popularity is sure to grow on the web! Ya-hoo! Our sites will show gamers that we're serious about DKC, but want to show them a good time as well. My new slogan is, "Quality never goes out of style!" Let's get ready for the new age of DKC websites!!!!   Your fellow webmaster,   Kaptain K. Rool ------------- JULY 15, 1999 ------------- Do you think DK and Candy will marry? --- blueboy junior DK's Answer: The future will know..... ------------- JULY 15, 1999 ------------- Hi! I like your site and i like DKC too. How much does a DKC game cost nowadays? --- strawberry DK's Answer: It depends. Some costs as much as $78.00 (new) or as affordable as $39.00 (new) or much much affordable as $29.00 (used) ------------- JULY 14, 1999 ------------- Can Mario beat up all the Kongs for revenge back in 1981-1982? DK's Answer: Heh-heh... Both are strong and got the experience but ALL Kongs? ------------- JULY 13, 1999 ------------- Hi! I love your site so much. My brother always comes here and surfs around. I know nothing about Donkey Kong but it looks interesting. We have a Super NES with a few games. Is DKC a good game? --- Kathy Mau DK's Answer: GOOD GAME? No, it's not a good game... IT'S A FANTASTIC GAME!!! Thanks for the comments. If u want more info, please visit the Cabana and read the reviews there. ------------- JULY 13, 1999 ------------- I loooooooooooooove it! And... i like the fanfics! I might send one if I can. --- Honky Tonky DK's Answer: Sure! Mail it to me. Check out the "How to Contact the Kong Klan section". ------------- JULY 12, 1999 ------------- Hi! What does a rotten yogurt taste like? --- anonymus DK's Answer: I have a question for you. Is it banana yogurt? ^_^ ------------- JULY 12, 1999 ------------- Gimme Your site! I loooove it! GIMME! --- anonymus DK's Answer: No thank you... Too much calories... ------------- JULY 12, 1999 ------------- I LIKE THE NEW DONKEY KONG JUNGLE!!! Hey! --- anonymus DK's Answer: Ooooh! ------------ JULY 8, 1999 ------------ YOUR SITE IS THE BEST! THE BEST! THE BEST! THE BEST! Anyway, are you gonna make another contest? ---Pika "Kong" Chu DK Answers: Yes. It's similar to the Bird Hunt but we will reveal the details of the contest soon. ------------ JULY 7, 1999 ------------ I think your site is cool! By the way, is Kiddy Kong the Baby Kong of DKC TV Series? DK's Answer: Um... That's a hard question. In one episode, DK became Baby Kong because he drank a youth potion. There was another episode where DK had a nephew and it was Baby Kong. In the game, Kiddy was Dixie's cousin. We'll never know... ------------ JULY 7, 1999 ------------ How come Swanky and Wrinkly and other animal friends are not in the DKC TV show? --- Gizmo DK's Answer: Rareware is not responsible for the DKC TV show. Nelvana and MediaLab are the ones who makes the show. And... Swanky will be out of place in that show. Wrinkly would be a nice addition in the show. Animal Friends? They won't fit in. Nuff said. ------------ JULY 7, 1999 ------------ Of course, Toad would play impartial "host" like he did in Mario Party for N64. (The VS. idea came from watching Comedy Central's game show of the same name, hosted by Greg "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" Proops. So THAT'S why some of Cranky's remarks sound like a father chiding his son.:P  DK now got a chance to show his heroics in "Donkey Kong Junior" and his driving skills in the SNES Super Mario Kart.  This might be how he taught "Do-wah Diddy" Diddy Kong (diddy do:P) how to be a second banana(he played one to Cranky all those years ago when Cranky had kidnapped "Pauline" in Donkey Kong (arcade and Game Boy, as well as 1/2 the "Donkey Kong Classics" cart for the NES) and had to save Cranky's banana-hash when an angered Mario in turn kidnapped DK as payback). You just hope you can keep Mario restrained if he ever say DK and Cranky (he never quite forgave Cranky for kidnapping Pauline or present DK for releasing Cranky).  I can see why no Wrinkly or Swanky..where would they have fit in? --- Monkeyboy Think the Mario characters would make an appearance, like DK did in N64's Mario Party? DK's Answer: Right. Wrinkly and Swanky are out of place in the world of Donkey Kong. Mario and others? Nah! Whenever Mario has a game with his friends in it, DK will be there for sure. But if DK has his own game, Mario won't be in it because MAIN CHARACTERS WILL BE ALWAYS MAIN CHARACTERS... ------------ JULY 7, 1999 ------------ In a contest of skill and wits, who would win? Kong Team: Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong and Candy Kong VS Mushroom Team: Mario, Luigi, Wario and Princess Peach/Pauline (from Gameboy DK) Also:  Is it possible the ORIGINAL 1980's Donkey Kong was Cranky, and that the Donkey Kong Junior then is the present DK? --- Ted "Monkeyboy" Hsu DK's ANSWER: Donkey Kong, Luigi, Wario/Dixie, and Princess Peach will win 1. DK got the strength 2. Luigi can jump higher 3. Wario got the strength while Dixie has great defense 4. Princess because she was in Super Mario RPG: (er... that was Toadstool) 5. The Old DK was Cranky Kong. The DK Jr. was Donkey Kong. If Cranky dies, Donkey Kong will become Cranky Kong and Kiddy Kong/Diddy Kong will become Donkey Kong. ------------ JULY 5, 1999 ------------ What's the online book? --- anonymus DK's Answer: Oh! It's a book that consists of dialouges. Me and my friend Cammi Luna are working on it right now. Please stay tuned at this site. ------------ JULY 5, 1999 ------------ How come some messages are SOOOOOO OLD in the forum? --- anonymus DK's Answer: Er.... you can make it popular by spreading the word around... ------------- JUNE 28, 1999 ------------- Will Candy ever love me? --- Harry Bull DK Answer: Hmmmm... She only goes out with BIG, HAIRY, APES! (watch Barrel, Barrel, Whose Got The Barrel?) ------------- JUNE 28, 1999 ------------- Is there a lost world in DKC? ---Gar Car DK's Answer: No! Where did you get that idea? There are lost worlds in DKC2 and DKC3 but none DKC! ------------- JUNE 27, 1999 ------------- When are they gonna make new episodes of DKC SHOW? --- anonymus DK's Answer: We'll never know! ------------- JUNE 26, 1999 ------------- Hey what's the Donkey Kong: The RPG? --- Meekness DK's Answer: We were gonna put an online RPG game here at DKJ. The project was cancelled because we were afraid that no one would participate. And... the guys only reach at Level 12. And... it's incomplete. We trashed the whole thing. ------------- JUNE 21, 1999 ------------- I'm wrighting about the Candy. I quite liked the idea of the save point in DKC 1, and then in 2 the idea was back. But where had Candy gone? I just presumed that Raware had scrapped her or somthing. Then I started watching the DK TV show, and she was back, but with a makeover. And now I hear she's not in Ultra DK. What's goin' on? --- Harry Bull DK's Answer: I think Candy is way too sexy for a kiddy game or... she doesn't fit in... or... they scraped her off... what else? ------------- JUNE 20, 1999 ------------- WAAAAAH!!! ME WANT MOOORE EPISOOOODES!!! --- crybaby DK's Answer: Ooooh! Don't come cryin to me! Cry at Nelvana and MediaLab! They gotta make some more!
