Drum roll please... Donkey Konga!

Donkey Konga

While it was just yesterday that Nintendo shipped Donkey Konga off to retailers, the reviews have been piling up for some time now, and it certainly looks like this latest ape adventure is a mixed bag of bananas at best. You've got to hand it to Nintendo for being a risk taker, often lending to worthy innovations in the industry, but how significant is an undersized plastic drum-controller? Konga offers the kind of novelty that quickly wears off and doesn't offer enough complexity to satisfy true rhythm-heads. Cop this for your kids or younger siblings, otherwise find a different jungle to play in.
