I had the chance to play more SNES multiplayer and this time we tried Donkey Kong Country. I have to say that I now think of the original as a great game. I always felt that way about the Diddy's Kong Quest, but didn't give the original as much consideration. I know I played it, liked it a lot, and moved on... I'm sure I went back to it sometimes, but I didn't really get hooked completely on the series until DKC2. There are just so many fun stages in the first one. And a couple times I thought to myself... that happens in THIS game, I thought it was in DKC2 or 3. The level of difficulty is exactly to my preference, too. The bosses are too simple and repeat too much, but that's my only real complaint.

For the record, I think DKC3 was the least entertaining but still good.

I'm going to play some Secret of Mana tonight, too.
