I got a mini-snes recently and have been playing through some of the old favourites.
I forgot how brilliant DK Country was/is.
I'm basically addicted for the next while.
It starts off easy, and I build up a healthy stock of life-balloons,
then the next thing I know I'm in the rail-cart one and I get past it
with two lives remaining.
Awesome.
How are the graphics? I bought the CoolBaby NES with 600+ built-in
games, obviously most are not original (AngryBirds!) and the originals
don't seem to play well.
For example, I don't remember TMNT characters flashing and going
invisible when moving. Which I don't remember the original doing.
I have DKC on Wii, and it is too addictive.
All the games are true to the originals. :-)

Well sounds like my wallet will be lighter by end of the week, and my
weekend is gone to nostalgia!
It's probably my favorite franchise from the SNES. Meaning, I got the SNES that was bundled with DKC1 so I didn't have a a lot of the other games to win me over (Mario World)
It's also nice to note that the guy that did the music did a lot of other great music in other games, all the way back to the NES.
Cool! Do you know any of the NES games he did?

The two that stick out to me is Battletoads and Nightmare on Elm Street. I know, NoES is fun to make fun due to it being a ridiculed on Angry Video Game Nerd and being published by LJN, but the game wasn't bad and the music was awesome!

Ha! So did you get the mini-snes then??? ;-)
No I did not. Too many other things I want to buy. I am trying to think
how best I can cover every generation of Nintendo console. My kids are getting into Zelda, so what is the least number of computers/consoles I
need to buy to cover the most games. Thinking whether RetroPI or
something would be better.
