Swanky has his original challenges that take coins to play for lives and cannot be replayed, but now he also challenges you to pay 10 coins every time you want to re-fight a boss, with a promised prize of 6 extra lives if you win--ultimately, it's a quick but very challenging and expensive way to win lives that is far superior to the overly easy Animal Bonuses of DKC.

It was remarkably easy to get an "S" rank before; now, the only limits set are your own best times

I love practically any video game and this is one of my all time favorites

In addition to the games bonus coins, you'll also find "hero" coins.

Plus, the reward for winning each of these games the first time is a Hero Coin (one step closer to beating the game 100%) and you won't get anything for winning again

The graphics are done well like the first game, and the gameplay is still just as enjoyable as ever.

The graphics, with the GBA's pixel problem, also don't look all that great.

They remain generally unchanged, and along with all the original challenges, they still retain all of their charming music and graphics.

the graphics are great and it has good music that doesnt get on your nerves in about 30 min

I used to love the SNES

However, since the GBA uses only one speaker and is not as musically capable as the SNES, it's lower quality than the original SNES version

Of course it isn't as good as the SNES version, but for a port it's the tits

The Good:+Good Graphics+Good Sound... for the most part+Classic game+A good challenge+Lots of secrets+Interesting and complex level, not so repetative+Some of the most fun

Wrinkly, Swanky, and Klubba also have new challenges of their own, but they put the game's Banana Coins to more use than the SNES version of DKC2 ever did.

its well worth your money to have a good time

The controls are as tight as they were back then, and it certainly is a relief playing this game after playing the incredibly loose-controlled New Super Mario Bros

love this! A+

Before anything, I'd like to say that I have been an avid Nintendo fan since watching my brother play before I could even write and since playing Super Mario Bros. for the very first time

Each of these stages will be frustrating and drive you crazy but passing them will give you a positive feeling of accomplishment.

I'm very happy to see this game ported to the GBA for both a new generation and for the old, and it brings a very heart-warming feeling to see someone younger enjoying it

It boasts one of the best video game soundtracks of all time by David Wise (yup, MIDI can top orchestrated), incredible character and level design, tight controls, and overall excellent gameplay with a nice level of difficulty

I love practically any video game and this is one of my all time favorites

love this! A+

As I said, the music for the SNES was friggin' amazing, and it is great to hear these songs again

Nothing that hinders the experience at all, though, it's still great music, and head phones can help as well
