Episode 106 : Donkey Kong Country (SNES)

It's almost Thanksgiving, so we present a feast of bananas for the Super Nintendo, as we take a look at Donkey Kong Country! Donkey Kong's first solo outing on the SNES still has undeniable charm, and the series as a whole continues on to this day, but does this first game still hold up today?

We also take on some more listener questions, this time covering retro remake disappointments and possible gaming fatigue.

(We apologize for some of the sound issues, Billy's setup this week didn't have the finest internet connection, but I think we salvaged it)

Want to jump right into a series of barrels? Then shift to the 10:30 mark!
