14:55 so the rumor was an early version of the iron man modes.
Btw Awesome vid 🔥
Good insight, I hadn't even considered that lol
I'll never sleep again, knowing such disturbing secrets as "the pillar was going to have a statue on it, but ended up not having a statue on it."
13:21 the theory of tiny kongs depression stems from the DK rap saying that she can change size to suit her mood and she chooses to stay small because of that.
Bro gloomy galleon made me so depressed as a kid. Especially when I had limited video game time per day, if it was spent in gloomy galleon with awful swimming mechanics I’d get so sad that I’d wasted my time. But the suffering is what made me a man.
I really don't get the hate, yes it's long and has a lot of collectibles, but the atmosphere, music and characters are amazing, I don't think the curated 8 hour experiences we have today are so much better that they make this game's deviation from that formula is so abhorrent
It's easier to hate on a game than to actually play it and appreciate it. I'm sure the same people who are complaining about "too much content" in DK64 are the same ones who say "too little content" about modern games. It's just inconsistent.
Exactly this game is really fun and enjoyable and the people who hate on it are followers who try to get popular and be apart of the crowd instead of actually playing the game and see how much of a blast the game is
@@johnhare7522 I have played the game, and even back then when I was a kid I thought there was something wrong with it, and even though I wasn't able to quite put my finger on what it was I definitely found myself enjoying it way less than many others of it's contemporaries and finding it to be an overall disappointment.
As time passes I've come tot he conclusion that in my case it's not as much that it has way too much stuff, it's that it feels unnecessarily and artificially padded, to the point it breaks atmosphere and immersion.
The issue that you choose not to observe is that: yes, we have long ass games now BUT they don't have you walking through the same 7 areas 5 times each
@user-Tod-The-Toad I was actually saying 8 hours as a comparatively short experience, I agree that reusing environments is not generally great but that's not the common criticism of DK64
As someone who was poor growing up and had parents who couldn't buy new games, I loved my copy of DK64. Being long was one of the best things about this game for me. Hahaha
I can confirm the golden Statue on the pillar, i have the german guide at home
All the Rare N64 games have a weird atmosphere. I think it’s something to do with the colour palette and the lighting.
Looking through this and see you talk about the percentage counter a fair bit. It's because each item in DK64 is worth a certain percentage. Most of the anomalies derive from two elements:
- The game percentage is read as a signed 8-bit integer. This means that if it goes over 127%, it'll start looping back around to -128%. The -124% screen you showed is as a result of collecting the most items you can in the game with glitches (280 Golden Bananas + the rest of the things required for regular 101%). This equals 132% with the formula, but because that's more than 127%, it loops around past -128% to -124%
- The developers wanted the Golden Banana behind the 20-fairy door to be the last one. The way they programmed it is that if you had 201 Golden Bananas, it'd remove 0.4% from your percentage. It would then check whether your new percentage was exactly 100%. If you did and you had the 20-fairy golden banana, it would add an extra 1% to your file. It's a very convoluted way of handling their intentions, but it is what it is
While getting a negative percent completion is clearly a glitch; you are actually supposed to be able to get 101% as that's what you get when you collect the final bonus 201st gold banana.
Thank you SO MUCH for finishing up my DK64 iceberg!!!!

Thank you for the iceberg, made for some good entertainment
Can u explain how the mario franchise is inside creepy castle
@@SketchyStudiosdarkflame yeah. like, what?
I 'hate' dk64 in the sense that I hate that it could have been better. I like dk64, I've fully completed the fucking game 3 times, which is 3 times more than anyone should. It definitely feels hard for me to want to go back to it, because if I do, I know I'm going to want to complete it fully, which is just, a daunting task.
Nah man its definitely a decent game. Its not terrible, its just not great. Especially not compared to masterpieces like Banjo Kazooie.
I get the point about hating its wasted potential. Feel you deeply. Though i have played games with ten times more missed potential so its not a specifically bad case.
DK64 is in fact a life changing experience. After doing a 101% playthrough on original hardware by choice with my friends last year we can all agree we have PTSD and permanent damage
Bro this video was fuckin funny, i NEED the gif for diddy going to work.
So my theory about Tiny becoming not tiny, is that I believe in the manual and game guides it says that she looks up to Candy who is said to be a model. And that Tiny also wants to pursue a career in modeling.
And well sometimes models do extreme things to get their modeling physique. And it makes sense cause she does look a lot more like Candy in those newer designs.
These videos deserve way more views, they're some of the best iceberg videos on net.
Another funny and interesting video. Would you be interested in talking about ‘Conker’s Bad Fur Day’?
I never played Conker when I was a kid (for obvious reasons) so I would like to play it all the way through first to get an idea for the game before I dive deeper. I'm not opposed at all to this idea because its one of the rare games on N64 I never got to, and have wanted to play for a while. An Iceberg would be the perfect excuse lol
0:05 why is there an insane man rambling in my left ear for 30 seconds behind your voice
I thought it was some MKultra spycraft-type subliminal message-ass shit, where the voice is saying "like the video" or somethin'
I’m glad you brought up how the whole game just has this negative aura about it. I’ve always felt this game to just feel very dark and gloomy as a whole. So many of the secluded rooms that just have an empty/liminal space feeling. That and the very ominous music most of these rooms have just makes you feel so lonely. The catacombs in creepy castle actually scared me as a kid so much that I had to mute the audio on my TV to get all the golden bananas during that segment.
I think the idea that the mario series takes place in creepy castle might come from the fact that the castle resembles whomp's fortress.
It seems kinda flipped. Like one could effortlessly argue the entire Donkey Kong series takes place in the Mario universe.

Tiny Kong from Wii is an abomination 😳😂
I really enjoyed both of these dk64 iceberg videos. Great channel
DKC2 was my favorite out of the 3 in that 16 bit time
>calling the game a snoozefest
i will support no donkey kong 64 slander in this house
18:10 Maybe this is referring to actual game assets? Like some of them were borrowed from some of the Mario games to build the Creepy Castle level? That's the only logical conclusion I can come up with for this entry. (Great video, btw. I spent years wondering about that darn pillar in the museum LOL)
The only bug I have ran into is the not getting all of the banana coins soft lock which explains my 1st run as a kid. My 2nd run was 2 years ago and I got soft locked while playing that astroid game. I'd beat the score required but I wouldn't get the prize and you have to beat that and the original Donkey Kong game's core to progress. So here I am trying it a 3rd time.
The bowser laugh with miyamotos face made me laugh! 😂 3:32
I think it's so funny that tiny kong is dixie kong's younger sister but now she's way taller than dixie. I know so many siblings irl where the younger sibling is taller than the older sibling and it's hilarious
10/10 video and burp
Surprised DK 64 the unsold copy wasn't mentioned in this iceberg
these videos are very niche but i love that they exist. THANK YOU!
Bro I love ur donkey kong videos u gotta start doing reviews
18:08 idk probably nothing
Why don't these videos get more views? Dang man.
Smooth mc groove aka "that bearded f*ck that does Acapella"

Damn you might be the only vidyatuber that A doesn't speak in the same bizarre vocal cadence that doesn't exist IRL B actually makes pretty funny jokes, that IMPORTANTLY aren't made every two seconds.
Bravo. Sub EARNED
Underrated game and also where is Dixie
- I think the re-design for Tiny came from the fact that DK64's character designs were done by Rare, a UK developer and the later designs were done in-house at Nintendo Japan. God I hope that doesn't mean someone wanted to clap monkey cheeks... 😖
- The American release was buggier probably because Nintendo wanted the game out in America first and Rare had time to fix bugs for the European and Japanese versions.
That would be a strange turn for Nintendo to make the more sexualized version and Rare to make the less sexualized version.
@@nothingsacred8684 Considering Candy Kong's modern design, there's no doubt in my mind someone at Nintendo had particular...tastes.
Tiny reappeared to replace Banjo in Diddy Kong Racing DS. Since Banjo is a big boi and Tiny is… well… tiny, having her with his stats wouldn’t have made sense, so they redesigned her to make her older in order for the replacement to make sense. That’s at least my theory.
4:07 what's that image from?
You’re a dingus, but I appreciate listening to a dingus go off about my favorite game. Well done.
Damn only 1.7k views? I have a shitty low effort video with 60 times that, it's unfair you deserve way more, really cool chill and entertaining videos
This got recommended, expect a hoard to come
I’d love a remake or remaster for the switch
Donkey Kong lives in the Hallow earth!
I'd really like to see a ocarina of time/majora's mask iceberg, I grew up wth these master peaces and I want to see some random ass youtuber talking about link getting drunk by drinking milk
so if tinykong stays small cause she chooses to- does the reason h a v e to be innately negative?
like "oh i felt so small" n such, overpowered in some sense
but like
as a 6'2 micro-giant blursed with being nearly unnoticeable (and was a huge prankster as a kid) going mini mode/ controlling size would be an absolute blessing honestly
but if its tied to how she feels n all, i guess itd... be her perspective of what each size would "mean"
16:24 you can just clip through the wall instead of hacking so hacking no required
What is that repeating voice clip that's really quiet during the intro to this video? I can't make out what it's saying. Is this subliminal messaging?
Banjo kazooie gruntys revenge iceberg?
God I can't take it anymore, I am so sick of all the slander this game gets from the entire world. You have no idea how hard it is being some one like me, someone who understands this game on a personal level. not only is this my favorite video game of all time but I believe it to be the greatest achievement the human race has ever conceived (no this is not a joke, I am not trying to be funny, I genuinely mean this from the bottom of my heart). I love this game so much to the point where I cloister it a part of my being, this game is like a third parent to me, this game has done more for me then my own father, I was born and raised by Donkey Kong 64, Donkey Kong 64 Created me! And to just sit back at watch as the entire planet tears this wonderful masterpiece a new one, to call me stupid for loving it so much, to see this game being threated like the laughing stalk it is. for me, watching a negative review of this game is like watching my parents in a blood fist fight (again, I am not trying to be funny I genuinely feel this way). I am so sick of bottling my emotions for this game, I am so tired of the internet spreading false information on this work of art, I am so tired of even the people who say they "like the game" insult and belittle it as if it where a pathetic insect and then go on to their inferior games like Banjo-Kazooie, Mario 64, A Hat in Time, and Crash 4.I know I'm fighting a loosing battle, but I will not rest until at least one other person finally understands.
Hey, I love this game, too, and it has always been my favourite one. In my case, a friend of mine got the game a week or so earlier, so we kinda explored it simultaneously. E.g. when he told me about the second level, I was quite eager to reach it myself. I also remember that I enjoyed Jungle Japes so much that I once got up early to have some playtime before getting ready for school. By the way, being a casual gamer, not a glitch seeker, I never found any game breaking strategy, so this wouldn' t spoil anything at least for me. Lastly, a few personal comments on the game, how did you experience them (?) : The soundtrack is hilarious, without an exception, the bug and the minecart races were simply great, two of the three Beaver Bother minigames (those in the later game) had a score annoyingly difficult to break... well, there were so many awesome moments, hopeless to list them up in their entirety.
Great to read from someone who really loved this game, as well. Kind regards!
Haven't had a chance to watch this video yet and am looking forward to it, but does anyone else remember the "Mew under the truck" / "Luigi in SM64" rumor about this game that you could use a GameShark to play as Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong?
I’ve played the American version and the Japanese version they are the same
the mushroom guys creeped the freak out of me when i played it as a kid even now lol. along with the pumkins and ghost kremlings
You wasn’t the only one man, I use to avoid them as a kid. I memorized where they were that I would avoid going towards them. To the point that I would switch fungi forest from day to night, because I think they don’t show up at night.
@@24nickrodriguez that's hilarious, I remember doing the same thing! You'd think it's be creepier at night but it was a vibe haha
@@crazycano18 it was just something about them popping up from the ground that tripped me out. Till this day I can’t really seem to understand why I was scared of them.
@@24nickrodriguez yeah we probably thought they were like the other mushrooms that bounce you up and then they pop up and try to get you haha
I think the meaning of the “Mario is represented in Creepy Castle” entry is that the author is claiming that there are a bunch of Mario references in Creepy Castle. I’m not sure since the only Mario reference I can think of is the Donkey Kong theme appearing in the BG music for Creepy Castle.
If this game had trophies back in my day i wouldve earned the platinum lol. I spent so many hours in this mf. And i dont regret it 😊
19:12 i think the game has bugs because the programming wasn't intended for 60 fps, and the more the game lags the faster the kongs, using the expansion pak was a very early design decision
I don't know whether to believe that thing about the pillar. It's strange that only a German players guide would somehow know that, but the golden statue as a display piece sounds specific enough to be true.
Part 1:m.th-cam.com/video/i2jl1KJKfFM/w-d-xo.html
could the Big Sawmill reference Gorillaz "Feel Good Inc"?
