Super Donkey Kong '99 is a bootleg attempt at porting Donkey Kong Country to the Genesis, built solely to grab a quick-n-nasty buck at Taiwanese markets.

It's as good as it sounds.

Shouldn't you be bigger, Mr. King?

It doesn't get any better than this, folks!

  • When beating the original revision of the game, the ending just shows a screen with Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong (who doesn't appear elsewhere in the game) statically staring at each other in a black void. In the ROM, there are some unused graphics for a conversation that was intended for this ending, transcribed as follows:

WOW!!....... IT'S ALL OVER NOW
AND WHAT SHOULD WE DO NOW, DONKEY?
OH......... LET ME THINK.......
OH! YA!
WHAT!? DONKEY
SEE YOU!
SEE YOU AGAIN!!

Super King Kong '99 fixes the ending so said graphics display properly and additionally animates the characters.
