Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
I mean I would've gone with Mega Man X or X2 but yeah SMW is pretty good too.

I like DKC3 better than the first two.

2 was tainted in my babby days because saving cost banana coins and I was poo poo enough at the game to become unable to progress.

Stop defending Toei already. The exceptions you listed are not the rule, and would've been done just as fine by another competent company.

I feel like that's an unfair standard. Like, SMW is probably the best, but it's also lauded as one of the best video games ever made in general. It's the kind of thing where when people say "x is the best", what they really probably mean is "x is the best, besides super mario world".

Dias is correct on both points, with the caveat that Sonic 3 includes Knuckles as well.

I have. It doesn't come to mind immediately because I've never played it. I can remember games that I've played better than ones I haven't, usually.

Most intensive video game thing I'm doing now is trying to keep track of what games took everything by storm like Undertale. So, Halo, Bioshock, Portal, Fire Emblem: Awakening, etc.

DKC2 is good and I will admit it's probably the best DKC game but my favorite is still DKC 3 because the level/boss design is so weird and goofy.

It's super strange and unique, even to it's own franchise.

Yoshi's Island is better than SMW.

But I legit would rather play any of the games I listed AND DKC2 over SMW if I wanted to do a platformer.

I think skipping on the water with the baby Kong in DKC3 was actually a really cool mechanic. The only Donkey Kong game I've had growing up was the original and I've never really went back to finish the others so if there's crazy terrible bullshit in the late game I don't know about it.

It goes without saying SMW is great and so are all 6 of the Mega Man X games.

The gameboy port has pretty nice-sounding music. That's something! :shobon:

The Donkey Kong composers did magic with the GB sound chip. DKL 1 has my favorite music in the whole series, even.

That's because DKC3 is awful.

Also speaking of funny awful things I'm just :allears: at hitting the sinspawns body and having Aauron and Wakka go "YO ATTACK THE ARMS ITS GUARDING WITH THEM" but the guys are so absorbed in the guide that they apparently don't even notice.

This and the Snowball fight with killer snow man and the levels where you outrun a saw as it's cutting up the tree you're in are examples of what I mean. DKC3 is just so delightfully weird.
