Full description

This Namco-developed Donkey Kong game is made to be beat, with a special bongo-style controller that consists of two drum pads and a small microphone. The controller allows gamers to drum along to songs such as Queen's "We Will Rock You," "Rock Lobster" by the B-52's, Devo's "Whip It," and other finger-tapping licensed tunes, as well as a selection of familiar themes from Nintendo games like Super Mario Bros., Pokémon, and The Legend of Zelda. Following scrolling onscreen prompts, akin to those found in Dance Dance Revolution and other rhythm-based games, players must clap their hands or hit the left, right, or both drum heads as directed, all in time to the music. Success is rewarded with unlocked mini-games and new songs. A multiplayer mode allows up to four gamers to compete or cooperate through the same tune.
