    3:50 the ground pound effect looks a lot like the goomba shoe stomp in mario maker

    5:50 Some of the enemies look like early prototypes of enemies from Yoshi's Island, especially the monkeys and the enemies that roll into a ball. That's fascinating the monkeys from Yoshi's Island were potentially intended for a Donkey Kong game, but got put into a Yoshi game instead as a byproduct of Donkey Kong Country's development.

    The game reminds me a lot of Rayman, but that didn’t come out until ‘94. Interesting.

    The only undocumented information I can say about Super Donkey is this: It's possible to cling onto rock ceilings by holding Up, and rapidly pushing B. Also, you can climb trees differently by mashing the B button when you've clinged onto it. Both actions admittedly look suggestive. Grabbing objects while flying causes a game crash, by the looks of things. (EDIT: pushing A with the cannon while flying crashes the game.) There's a stray pixel next to the charge meter and above the "Time" label that's only in super_donkey_2 that isn't there in super_donkey_1. If you hold the A button while flying, you can constantly loop-de-loop for some reason. Lastly, it is possible to clear the levels without flying. You can do it with the super-charged jumps alone. Yes, even that last area guarded by a dog in a one-tile hole.
    These are just a few useless facts from a guy just experimenting with it and playing around. Then again, there's a lot of not-documenting going on with this thing.

    Donkey Kong did finally get a really good sequel, on the gameboy in '94. They should have called it Donkey Kong 2.

    Being a lost Nintendo EPD title, I am just so intrigued by this prototype. You can tell it’s filled to the brim with the charm and style that titles from that dev team is known for even to this day, and I gotta wonder what the full game would have been like!!!

    I'm surprised no one in the comments has brought this up yet but the way the playable character is animated and interacts with all the stage hazards kinda resembles the 2D Rayman games. It feels so surreal to see sth this similar that predates it by about 3 years

    Those Mario Sprites are stylin!
    From my point of view, by the way, why videos aren't doing as well as you may have hoped...
    As a viewer, when I hear a channel with subs in the triple digits asking for subs because your goal is 100,000, I think, woah, hold your horses. It would be nice to go from triple to 6 digits quickly, but it's not really something you should be asking for. Perhaps state a closer goal? Then maybe people will be more motivated to click that sub button to help you reach it?

    This is the most weird feeling Nintendo prototype ever, I doesn't feel Nintendo while at the same time it is, idk how to describe it, i guess risky and experimental?
    Wonder what would happen if the game was released as a new franchise.

    @jamesmiller206 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Its very likely that super donkey was scrapped because yoshi became one of the most popular mario characters and it made more sense to capitalize off off of this new breakout character rather then this weird rayman looking guy. Since miyamoto had an idea for a game built around yoshi its possible the higher ups at the time either didn't see this pitch prototype or felt it was meh after hearing miyamotos yoshis island idea as super donkey is the kind of thing meant to convince higher ups to greenlight the project rather then a fully functioning game(probably why the mario sprites were there as that was likely a placeholder).

    • @GameFactsSpecial
      @GameFactsSpecial  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That does make sense. Yoshi was super popular at the time and they were probably looking to new characters to take on Sonic.

      @jamesmiller206 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@GameFactsSpecial that and the dates of the prototypes available do match up considering Mario world released in japan 9 months before us americans got it(and another 9 for pal territories) and Super donkey was made during that gap in localization when they were unsure how popular yoshi would be so development on Super donkey likely ceased after sales and reception data for Mario world became official and miyamoto got the greenlight for his expanded yoshi idea.

    0:38 lemme stop you right there. No you do not. You play as the character Stanley from Donkey Kong 3 on the NES. Not Mario. That doesn't even look remotely similar to Mario.
    Also, what does that mean, "Play as Mario from Super NES" because Mario didn't even debut on the SNES.
