Donkey Konga

Has anyone else played this game at Circuit City, or Gamestop or somewhere?

Personally, I think this is the coolest game I've played in a while... I'll be getting it! So much fun and so simple, just like Nintendo said. Who else is getting this game? I definately am!

Yeah, I've got a job in a Gamestop so I play it all the time. My co-worker and I have a routine where we play with capped markers for drum sticks. She takes one bongo, I take the other, and when you're supposed to clap we hit our markers together in the middle.

It's kinda dumb, but it makes the customers laugh their asses off.

LOL so that's how you spend your work time.

What? Where? By who? LINK PLEASE!

Yeah, I want a link or something also. I haven't heard of anything and I doubt there has been because the game is made by Nintendo..hence the name Donkey Konga

I dont think that I'll get it, it seems so childish.

Wait an hour, are y'all talking about the old drum game made in DDR-style, or the one that's an action game controlled by drumming and clapping that was such a big hit at E3?

I got my hopes all up before I realized what game y'all were probably talking about.

Yeah that's what I thought at first too!

I've seen some screenshots of that game and I'm more excited about that one.

But perhaps I should play Donkey Konga just to try it...

I'm sorry you think that, but maybe you should go to a game retailer with the demo and play the game before you make that assumption.

It's so great. I started work 2 weeks ago and I've already rang up 15 preorders for that game after giving parents, college students, and kids a lesson on it. Everybody I've shown it to has fallen in love with it.

I'd play it. But not buy it. I could also just go and buy a set of real bongos. Those are fun too.

I doubt i would even rent it if I owned a GC....it does seem childish to me as well.

Think about it....you hit drums to the beat. Woo.

Im not big on that style of game, the whole DDR thing isnt really my love.

I would play it and give it the old college try if someone i know rented it....but not me.

You just turned 13, you ARE a child.

I dont understand how you two can say this is childish. How is it any more childish than any other video game? Wha?

Your arguments dont make any sense. Video games in essence are childish. They bring out the child in you...and what's the difference in hitting a bongo, a ddr mat, or the buttons on a controller?
