"Donkey Kong Country was the SNES game to turn to when you really wanted a next-gen experience. Its outstanding visuals, coupled with fun old-school gameplay make it enjoyable to this day. It's also noteworthy for the inclusion of Cranky Kong, a complaining old coot who provides advice when he isn't smacking you with his cane. Two sequels followed (including the fun DKC 2: Diddy's Kong-Quest), but nothing beats the original." - Robert Workman, GameDaily
