I wonder what kind of administrations or goings-ons occurred for this track by Robin Beanland to end up in Donkey Kong Country instead of Killer Instinct. It's not like he had any other songs in DKC.
I came here to hear Funky Kong's Fugue, and I'm glad I finally found where it's from! I really like how this version sounds, it's higher quality than the DKC version. I wish Robin Beanland would release it.
People: just so you know, I asked Robin Beanland himself on Facebook about that "Funk's Fugue" rendition used in this trailer, and DUN-DUN-DUUUUUUN! He actualy said that he would try to look for it! I really do hope he finds it!
mega combo elite combo cinder used to be called meltdown and sabrewulf was war wulf good times before release. still miss that old showbiz today spot they had was really short
I'm very happy they changed the select screen to rotating 3D models and infinity-scrolling icon palettes, rather than the traditional "cluster of fighters" seen in all fighting games back then. And I'm ESPECIALLY happy that the announcer had more pep in his voice than this beta version.
I knew from the very moment I heard "Funky's Fugue" in Donkey Kong Country that that song was never meant for DKC, but for Killer Instinct. :D It was so out of place compared to the rest of the DKC soundtrack (and it is still my favorite track from DKC). AWESOME song! :D
Hmm. MEGA combo?? Glad that was nixed! I notice the moon in Spinal's stage is bigger, and there are roof windows as well. And the "Ready" font is a different typeface that spins into view, rather than flying in. Glad they changed it, lol.
READY font Mega combo (4 hit) , Super (5 hit), Hyper (6 hit), Mondo (8 hit), Elite (10 hit) Orchid's rooftop stage Spinal's rooftop stage VS screen VERY different Less characters Cinder's name is Meltdown Announcer's voice less enthusiastic Dizzy your opponent? (at 2:20) Glitch at 2:25? (Riptor hit Sabrewulf even tho his health bar was empty?) Fighting at edge of screen (at :20)
Is it possible you can get your hands on the prototype hard drive? 10,000,00 people would appreciate it! Especially if you ripped it and distributed it so we can all enjoy some unseen KI
@fanuvgod1 Cool. It kind of looks like a promo for some industrial event. I did work in video games years ago, (yuk- total hideous mistake for me personally)- games companies are notoriously secretive, and very possessive about what they are doing internally,. especially before their products are released, especially when showcasing what was a cutting edge technology at the time. Rare had a reputation, at least in the games press, as being very secretive. Your story must be unusual.
Once Again (mortal Kombat) made by ED Boon and his teams in Midway games in (Chicago) and now (Ki) also in chicago by a diffrent teams gamers of coruse. yeah XD CHICAGO RULES

0:50 I hear an arranged version of DKC1 Funky Kong's theme. (RARE doesn't disappoint)
Cool beta Killer Instinct 1 footage
Yup. From what I've heard, Robin Beanland originally wrote it for KI; kind of obvious in a way, when you listen to it.
It will be a matter of time before Funky screams "C-C-Combo Breaker!!"
D-D-D-D-DK BREAKERR
K-K-K-K-K.ROOL BREAKER!

Thank you so much!
PING! Uploader of said material dropping a random reply here five years later!
I love how the announcer sounds so different in the final product. So much more energetic!!
People: just so you know, I asked Robin Beanland himself on Facebook about that "Funk's Fugue" rendition used in this trailer, and DUN-DUN-DUUUUUUN! He actualy said that he would try to look for it! I really do hope he finds it!
Do you know if he's found it yet?
10 years later, he hasn't found it
AMAZING GAME! that full screen wind kick
I kinda wish they would have kept the Beta character select. Seeing their CG Intros looked really neat
Thanks for posting this video. Promo video's like this are a treat to see.
If there was one word to describe this game it would probably be......ULTRAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
some never seen before stages there...
Beta stages.
THE BEST GAME THAT I HAVE HAD EVER PLAYED
0:48 I know this might be what you came for, thank me later
mega combo elite combo cinder used to be called meltdown and sabrewulf was war wulf good times before release. still miss that old showbiz today spot they had was really short
Someone HAS to find the unused sounds for the combo names.
I'm very happy they changed the select screen to rotating 3D models and infinity-scrolling icon palettes, rather than the traditional "cluster of fighters" seen in all fighting games back then. And I'm ESPECIALLY happy that the announcer had more pep in his voice than this beta version.
Please upload this in high quality or lend it to someone that can preserve this only beta footage.
I love the promo videos, get to see beta versions of the games. Awesome.
Funky Kong Theme
What-If Killer Instinct in N64, Not SNES
I knew from the very moment I heard "Funky's Fugue" in Donkey Kong Country that that song was never meant for DKC, but for Killer Instinct. :D It was so out of place compared to the rest of the DKC soundtrack (and it is still my favorite track from DKC). AWESOME song! :D
It's a good question. It's not quite finished game as we know it. "Mondo Combo" with a different voice. My guess is around ~mid 1994
lol the character selection scene!
thank god they changed the combos names
men! i want that prototype so bad!!!
NICE! I'm a HUGE fan of this game... so funny to see it in it's unfinished state.
Everyone talking about Funky's theme, but I'm more concerned about the fact Spinal used to be capable of bleeding
Lmao. I was going to type this pretty much. Also, lmfao @ jago's full screen kick
While Funky's Fugue sounds good in the DKC soundfont, it's a shame that we haven't gotten this uncompressed version in full.
They should have kept Orchid's stage IMO.
MEGA combo? ELITE combo? MUNDO combo? That's sounds so good!
Best fighting game ever!!! 👍😎👍
Since Rare went to Xbox sometime ago, and if they're still around, release this to the 360!!!
It's on the XBOX One/Series X
Hmm. MEGA combo?? Glad that was nixed! I notice the moon in Spinal's stage is bigger, and there are roof windows as well.
And the "Ready" font is a different typeface that spins into view, rather than flying in. Glad they changed it, lol.
Yeah I just noticed that tune from DKC. I believe its the theme of "Funky's Flights".
That's correct - its the tune from DKC. Funky's Flights theme :)
Cinder was originaly supposed to be named meltdown, i didnt know that
READY font
Mega combo (4 hit) , Super (5 hit), Hyper (6 hit), Mondo (8 hit), Elite (10 hit)
Orchid's rooftop stage
Spinal's rooftop stage
VS screen VERY different
Less characters
Cinder's name is Meltdown
Announcer's voice less enthusiastic
Dizzy your opponent? (at 2:20)
Glitch at 2:25? (Riptor hit Sabrewulf even tho his health bar was empty?)
Fighting at edge of screen (at :20)
Good eye
Thanks!
