Wow, this is NOT bad! That's a very, very rare thing for a pirate. Makes me wonder what Rare could have done with an official NES port. While some levels would have no doubt needed to been shortened, altered, or cut out altogether, it would have no doubt been far closer to the SNES version(especially with the help of some of the consoles' special chips). It may not have sold well, but Rare should have done it anyway, because what a truly amazing final sendoff for the NES that would have been! And the NES deserved it.
@@0livera.lorenz0 True, and it does give us a pretty good idea of what an NES version might have looked like for the most part. However, it's not the same hardware so it would have probably still been a little bit different. Just one example is that the NES can only have half as many colors on screen as the GBC. The GBC also has an enormous color palette of 32,768 colors compared to the NES' 27 colors.
Rare would have done great, no question. Had Nintendo hired other developers, though, they would have fucked it up. Like Virgin’s subpar Aladdin port to the NES.
Probably the highest quality NES pirate game. If Nintendo found out about this, I doubt they weren't impressed by their work. Most of the songs are pretty good, the sprites are great, the animations are solid, the sound effects are good and the physics are alright. My only complaint is that some of the sprites glitch out and when the camera scrolls, the sides of the screen do sometimes glitch out too. The Hummer Team probably makes the best quality pirate games for the NES, and most of them are remakes of famous SNES titles. The music isn't always as good in some Hummer Team titles, but this is some serious stuff here. 驚人的狗屎, Hummer Team！:D
I really like the Hummer team, because unlike most other pirate developers, their games weren’t intended to make a quick buck screwing over unobservant buyers. They were to provide an alternative to kids in third world/post-Soviet countries who couldn’t afford the real games.
excelente port de este juego para nes, me hubiera gustado que lo hubiesen metido en los cartuchos de la polystation en su tiempo, hubiese jugado horas y horas ese juego
Este port recuerda al de game boy color solo q aqui es mejor sus graficos 3d prerenderisados y lo mejor es q esta tmb el dkc 2 diddys kong quest en nes!
For some reason, songs composed by David Wise but mixed by someone else sound weird, but songs composed by someone else and mixed by David Wise sound great.
I could only stand about 30 seconds of that monotone bass in Aquatic Ambience. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and hoped it would play a different note later on, but it never happened. Yikes.
It does. The colors are washed out in the GBC version, and the graphics aren't very accurate. Hummer Team decided to downgrade the sprites from the SNES version to 3 colors while also scaling them down.
Eu tive o prazer de jogar esse game em uma tv de tubo,por meados dos anos 90. É algo incrível poder rever esse jogo. Apesar de ser um bootleg,não deixa de ser um excelente game,levando em conta que não foi feito por um grande estúdio e, provavelmente,foi feito por pouquíssimas pessoas em computadores simples. Embora ele tenha cenários repetitivos e eu hoje,já adulto,consiga enxergar as limitações e repetições dele,ainda assim sinto um carinho imenso por esse jogo. Acredito que ele tenha sido muito popular na América Latina e na China.
It's nice to see a bootleg done with some effort, that isn't just lazy sprite swapping. I think is fair to recognize the work of the Hummer team on this port, despite their moral ambiguity as bootleggers.
Donkey Kong Land fealt like Snes in your pocket, leading me to think GB is more powerfull than NES. I was young. Would be cool to see and hear a Nintendo made port to NES.
Why did they name it 4, when it clearly is part 1? Games that were official ported to other platforms also don't use a different version number for different platforms, when it is the same game in the end. Also why does that game start with 25 lives? And last but not least, why are the bananas in the water levels sometimes shaped like down arrows? In the original, that's because they point to secret areas but in this game there are no secret areas, so the arrows point to nothing.
The reason it was named 4 was to try to get around copyright problems. This is an unlicensed port made by Hummer Team, not official by any means. The 25 lives were added because the game was overly hard, so the developers wanted to make up for it. I’m pretty sure the arrows existed because they were copying a specific level design, but didn’t think/weren’t sure how to program the bonus areas in.
I was a little disappointed with King K. Rool not springing back life at the end, but overall, really good game. Would definitely buy it on hardware to play on my NES.
This is absolutely insane. And with that, I mean absolute fantastic! Wouldn't have mattered at all, if the first DKC for the SNES would have been an Remake.
That's due to the way the NES renders backgrounds on screens that scroll in all directions, the glitching at the side of the screen was something that they couldn't have done anything about, even then the edges of the screen would have been covered by the over scan area on most TVs at the time.
Masterful move on Nintendo's part to go back to the basics, really giving the people what they wanted; more of the same, it's usual that people will find sequels and reboots not as good as the originals, Nintendo saw that and decided to just release the same game again, but with another stroke of genius, they did it for the NES, combining 2 classics into this masterpiece.
You should check out the Game Boy Color port that was actually MADE by Rare. It's identical to the SNES version but with downgraded visuals and no multiplayer, and is way more polished than this. But...for a bootleg port on the NES, this honestly isn't too bad.
@LEGO Clayface : I've seen that. I actually prefer this one. This one looks and sounds designed for the NES, and captures that essence. The GBC game seems like they just took the game that was designed for SNES and tried to cram it onto Gameboy by turning down the quality settings until it fit, resulting in it feeling like a bad SNES game instead of a great NES game.
A oesar de sacrificar un monton de niveles lograron mantener las habilidades de los jefes pfesnetados y esta mejor hecho que su versión de Siper Mario World.
cony stole hummer's sound driver for every game except for final fight 3, where they stole a late-era capcom driver instead. hummer stole konami's sound driver for the late-era release

This is kind of impressive for the NES
Just look to GB and GBC versions. They are much better while system capabilities are worse.
It even looks nicely designed on the nes
@@plankalkulcompiler9468 the GB is more powerful than the nes
@8BiToe POS.
@8BiToe reported.
This looks incredible for NES. Seeing it in person, running on a NES, and a old school TV would be an impressive sight.
Indeed it would!
I strangely like "bootleg demakes"
Me too!
same.
Great NES game! Imagine how amazing it would be on a SNES, one can dream...
This amazing game on a SNES? That's impossible, only in your dreams.
Keep dreaming friend, the closest thing to that is a strange sequel called Super Donkey Kong 99
Question is, where are the other 95 games?
I took a trip to South America once, and I actually saw this game on an actual NES cartridge for sale at a gift shop.
Apart from the music being ear grating...that's really impressive.
I think the music is the best part of it.
Just bought my husband the original NES with this game and Zelda for Valentines Day. I hope he has fun with it!
How did you find a NES copy of this game? Mostly I’ve found Famicom carts.
@@elgooGmirrorExistsI know that at one point, there was someone on eBay selling them but they were brand new repro carts. I've looked & looked & looked & could never find an actual Hummer cartridge from 97.. I would do anything.
@@Gameboy-Unboxings I found a repro cart on Aliexpress. I haven’t bought it but plan to.
Not bad for a bootleg. The graphics are nice, and it has some solid animations. Only problem is the ear piercing music.
The music is not that bad actually!! But there are some music that are worse than the orginal
For NES it could certainly get worse 😁
Music? Sound chip limitations.
Oh man, worse things can be hear from this system. I consider the music is decent
The music feels nostalgic to me, bcs I always enjoyed it back then 😂

Quite a feat! Simply amazing. If only this came out back then.

Foxy Animates It also came out in China (not really shocking as Hummer Team is a Chinese company)
id argue that this actually looks better than the official gbc version
No doubt.
It does.
The colors are washed out in the GBC version, and the graphics aren't very accurate.
Hummer Team decided to downgrade the sprites from the SNES version to 3 colors while also scaling them down.
The one problem I have is that the sky is black in the jungle in this version.

They shouldve made a SNES version of this.
Remove the 4
what
DKC originated on the snes, how would you expect hummer team to make a snes port of the game
We need a hack ROM of dkc about this nes port
Yeah, Hummer Team is pretty good at bootleg making, but music just wasn't their forte.
I like how in the NES version, a detailed background is replaced by a black background
Wow! Looks and sounds great!
It's nice to see a bootleg done with some effort, that isn't just lazy sprite swapping. I think is fair to recognize the work of the Hummer team on this port, despite their moral ambiguity as bootleggers.
they clearly gave this their all and it probably made nintendo shake and quake
Nobody ever said it was unfair. 🤔 Weird comment.
Ah lol. TIL that the game I played was a bootleg lol. Do you know if this is also on sega? Because I thought my console was a sega
Had this been legit it would have surpassed mario bros 3 EASY as an ALL TIME favorite nes game and most iconic
Not at all
No it really wouldn't have, even with DKC being as popular as it is, Mario is still Mario.

It looks like Donkey Kong is trying to pull his face off like a Scooby-Doo mask during his victory animation.

impressive game!hummer did a great job...
i would have loved to had played this on the NES. just call it Donkey Kong Country.

I was a little disappointed with King K. Rool not springing back life at the end, but overall, really good game. Would definitely buy it on hardware to play on my NES.
Music not withstanding, this demake is fantastic.
Graphically very respectable!
I play in this game with cartrige on my Famiclone in 2007 year 😸
Not the worst. Definatley better than Super Donkey Kong, that's for sure.
Actually not bad considering the hardware limitations
I like the version of Jungle Hijinx here. I hate the long ass into the original had.

Unfortunately, in this video, the game is not complete. There is also a winter stage and a temple if i remember well.
You're thinking of an entirely different bootleg called Super Donkey Kong, an NES "demake" of Donkey Kong Land for the Gameboy made by Ei How Yang.
@@iamhere490Yes, that one, with only 5 stages, the unlicensed port of SNES game "Donkey Kong Country". Thanks !
wow... looks good
is serusly dk 4 in 8 bits
I knew someone would do this. Now someone add Jedi fallen order.
Honestly it doesn't look bad for NES. I thought would be a lot more glitchy. It does glitch consistently at the right side of the screen though.
That's due to the way the NES renders backgrounds on screens that scroll in all directions, the glitching at the side of the screen was something that they couldn't have done anything about, even then the edges of the screen would have been covered by the over scan area on most TVs at the time.
This game officially released in 1967! Flip the 9 to 6 between 9 & 7!
This actually looks better than the GBC port of Donkey Kong Country 1.
Visually yes
hummer team did a better job at this bootleg nes version of DKC than they did with Sonic (or Somari)
Port? Gameboy original game?
This would have needed an expansion pack the size of a VHS tape to run on the NES and the cart wouldn't have been able to fit in the slot as a result.
