I want to see them meddle with the fly zapper more than anything.
They seem more interested in that
They need the bug a-salt gun
Maybe if they meddled less on that they would've figured out that bananas were literally spelling to them that they can use L AND R to suck up and spit water, for fuck's sake.
Yeah that video needs to happen, James!
You can find most cheap ones at 5 dollars give or take,they could get 4 and dual wield em while trying to swat whatever dares cross their path.
>"I tried all the buttons"
>the screen has "LR" written in bananas on it
What he meant to say was that he tried all the buttons except the right ones.
*Justin Miles* And at the right time, he probably button mash while on land and it didn't do him any good.
That sounds about right, yup.
Same happened in their DK2 run. The spider's controls were shown in bananas, but it took them to learn them like ten thousand years of try/error. In their defence, maybe they doesn't talk banana.
These guys SUCK at DKC3 lolool!
try jumping over the rat again it might work this time
😂😂😂
i'll say , i was yelling at the monitor .
_facepalms_
LMFA *O!*
How the fuck did they not realize you cant do that............................. Just beyond me.
I was going to have a stroke if you didn't figure out the squirting mechanic
That sounds something straight out of Brazzers.
This is one of those videos where, if I had never seen any of their previous videos, I'd have sworn they'd never played a video game before.
Even their dkc2 series, there were lots of times the bananas spelled out "A" and they still hit B instead and died 🤣
I never thought the cuphead 'gamer' journalist syndrome was a real thing
They’ve seen games, like ”Simon’s Quest”, where the ”hints” are often flat-out lies 😆.
I'm just amazed that they don't think of holding Y to run.
Hold Y. Perkelle! It's the third game and you still don't hold Y!!?!
Yeeeeeeeeeees!!!!!!
As if only DKC did the “Y to run” thing. These guys are Mario Bros veterans for fucks sakes. They should’ve known better. And I know for a fact that at least James was a huge DKC1 fan back in the day. What happened here?
Had to come check if this was infuriating for the others. Perkele, indeed!
also they don't use the attack down a cliff to be able to jump afterwards thing
Perkele, torille seuraavaks raivoomaan Jampasta ja Maikista?
I didn't count, but I'm sure I yelled "Oh my god, James, throw the barrel OVER the red Buzz to kill the rat!" at least 50 times.
The elephant part. With the water indicator beeing right there. Oh my god was it hard to watch 🤯
I thought the failure with the rat was bad until they failed to grasp how to shoot the water with the elephant.
I think a lot of people were yelling at their monitors through this video =D
Really? 50 times? Thats sad.
That's what several of the comments here are saying.
This video might be a prime example of why so many game developers think they need to hold your hand when explaining mechanics. They don't trust people to figure things out on their own and would instead write it off as a problem with the game. It's hard to believe these two have decades of experience each.
this game does hold your hand. You see those big letters "LR" and "Y" written as bananas on screen? yeah. They dont see those.
Have you played Portal 2? You can go through the game with dev comments and the things you learn is really horrifying. They simplified a LOT of easy puzzles just because dumb play testers would get stuck on them and get frustrated.
*LunaticThinker* I do remember. Not only that, Portal 2 was originally going to have a gel that let you walk on walls and ceilings, but some testers got dizzy from it so good-bye awesome mechanic...
well.... motion sickness is indeed a problem.... dumbing down puzzles in a puzzle game is sad.. they should have at least included them as a post game challenge....
@@LunaticThinker So, their play testers were either 4-year-olds, or drunkards and junkies. Well, I’m a drunkard; so who am I to say anything? 🤷🏼♂️
lmao the "LR" instructions are on the damn screen!
A complete lack of running was the main cause for a lot of their problems. How long have they been playing games? It doesn't cross their minds to try holding down a button to see if you can move faster?
Daniel G I'll refer you to the Dennis the Menace video from a few years back, simply put no.
I beat this game without ever touching the Y button. You are a loser if you need to use it.......
Being gamers you seem to struggle a lot with basic gaming techniques and timings. It's not hard to figure out what to do.
They're not interested enough. This seems like a chore for them
They are not paying attention, just goofing around, thats the whole point of the show
Yeah its amazing he can be enough of a collector to have tons and tons of games and yet not be that good at them lol
sort of ironic isnt it?
A jak nie jak tak!
You guy not figuring out the elephant can suck up the water is killing me lol
Literal instructions on screen are not literal enough apparently
I literally am filling with rage watching that, and them never throwing the barrel at the bird!
Yeah, really. The water meter is right there. I can somewhat understand not realizing you can suck it up when standing on something, but it took them so long to figure out you can shoot the water.
Fuck I didn’t know you can do that.
Bat Man They ignore the HUD or don't bother with it a lot of the times.
FFS! hold the Y button!
Why should they?
@@MabuseXX because thats how you hold items like barrels, and flipped beetles lol
It's written on the screen in bananas.
Holy shit this was hard to watch.
These videos aren't intended to figure out the intricacies of the game so much as having a conversation loosely based around the game and other unrelated things. The game is just there as a conversation piece. This isn't a "lets play"
"Intricacies" LMFAO -_- It's a simple platformer from simpler times! (and I mean that in the BEST way) There is nothing much "intricate" about it LOL.
The !st Winner you are so wrong on so many levels..
@@thestwinner680 lol
The LR Bananas....
The elephant part. With the water indicator right there. Oh my god was it hard to watch 🤯
Kim Weigand they .mention it
LR! LR!! LR!!! LR!!!! LR!!!!!
What do the bananas actually indicate? Haven't played dkc
Ricky Johnson when you are the elephant use L or R to suck up water. They kept Jumping into the ponds to fill up their water tank things and that’s not what you’re supposed to do.
Juaquin Rodriguez gotcha.
Yeah they are just bad at games. Like it literally spells it out for you.
Press that damn button for running... DAMN!!!
They put no effort into this play. How did they miss the L and R buttons for the elephant? So much wrong.
Sarato that barely.look like.letters
You guys have to pay attention to each level's design. There was a reason a water meter was on the screen, as well as the letters L R written with bananas at the beginning. Think about the game design, there's a reason for everything.
DK teached me to trust bananas
They're playing it like one of those crappy rom hacks where the level design is "do everything pixel perfect because there isn't a fun way to play it".
You complaining about DKC makes me question all your criticism about games I never played
Heitor Rodrigues Great to hear, I hope more people feel this way.
I can think of one example. Doom 64. They called that game “flawed” because of the puzzle system and darkness but that one is understandable. Apart from that it’s in my top 5 n64 games. I still love them, and watch their stuff, but jeeez sometimes they’re really ignorant.
Kevin Cardenas they compared it to other Doom versions.....
You commenting makes everyone question why youre on youtube
I can make a list of a few games that the AVGN had reviewed that aren't that bad:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES)
Karate Kid (NES)
A Nightmare on Elm Street (NES)
Friday the 13th (NES) (it's hard to figure out, but when you do it's kinda fun)
Bart vs Space Mutants (NES)
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (NES)
Jaws (NES)
Silver Surfer (NES) (if you play with a turbo controller and get full power-ups it's way more easy)
Mortal Kombat: Mythologies Sub-Zero
And I thought I was bad at DKC 3.
You are
Oh boy I’m lucky I grew up with the trilogy
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" me the entire video
But seriously... What was up with this playthrough guys?
You're watching the videos with the wrong intention. The game is a background to their conversation, not the other way around
No kidding... it hurt my soul watching some of these mistakes.
@mindhackz Wrong. If that were true they would not be claiming the game sucks because they cannot figure out simple mechanics
These guys are the reason why games these days have a million tutorials. How can you not understand that you need to toss barrels at the rats to get past them after at least the third time the game makes you do it? And then they call the game bad just because they're so bad at playing it.
And because ganes today use like 10 buttons. Back in time you Just need 4.
Ohhhh god, the LR bananas, guys!
There has to be some way to use the elephant's ability. There's just no obvious way!
How'd they make it through DKC2? Same button activates the spider's web platforms in that game.
(fallouthirteen) The game (DKC2) doesn't tell you that though.
It only mentions using "A" (or "Y") for buddy moves.
fallouthirteen They played this game before finishing DKC2... i can't remember what part but at the start of one of the videos they're talking about DKC3
The game tried to teach them, but somehow they didn't see it. It's not that difficult to play with Ellie.
This play through was hilarious. It was like watching my wife trying to play games.
Oddrat255 It was like putting the controller in my deceased Grandma's hands
No. It wasn't - neither was your joke funny - the characters actually MOVED. ;)
The !st Winner You're right, it's worse since they moved. In her hands they wouldn't have DIED ;)
File for divorce.
@@Orbrun yikes
James no offense but did you NOT notice the water meter at those levels ?
Elvis Sanchez they did and mention the blue bar being there the whole time
How about you pay some actual attention to the game before calling it "not good" because you're unable to figure out the most of basic things....
You ever seen James play DKC2? He loves the game and he is very good at it. It’s not about „unable to figure out....“, it’s about that they think 1 and 2 are better.....
dkc 3 is by FAR the worst in the trilogy
Too bad this is the worst dk game u hater
@@elmadin9110 because you probably play it like these 2 lol
@@elmadin9110 by FARR? likenDKC 1 and 2 are perfect 10, and DKC3 is a 3?
I've never seen anyone play this without holding (Y) though the entire game.
Seth Portland And the game is even designed for you to hold down Y with the momentum and perfectly spaced enemies, springs, barrels etc. I lost my mind watching this shit.
1 and 2 is designed around this. In 3 there is always that on asshole enemy that is placed a little further away so that you jump right into him
I have
It's like watching someone play Mega Man without charging the Mega Buster. You literally just hold down a button.
Are you under influence? Or did you just wake up?
Never touch an awesome game again. Ever. Stick to the bad ones, you can be bad at those and nobody gets hurt.
Fuck off kid..
@@7stringSkyline well you're a fucking asshole
There actually is a new Dumbo movie coming out...
I want it to be a gritty R-rated reboot. That would be hilarious.
Here we are in 2019. Did y'all like it?
And now it's out.
LR!!!
It's literally spelled out in the bananas!
I love how the K-O-N-G letters gave you an idea with how far you had progressed in a level. It was the most rudimentary version of a map, but it helped a lot.
The levels aren't badly designed, you're just really bad at the game. It even spells out the button prompts which you blatantly ignore. You can't chalk this up to you not seeing it because of your banter because you failed so much by just steamrolling through the levels.
This is one of the more frustrating videos for me to watch. I just wanted to yell to tell you what to do to help. Ugh, lol. I haven't watched it through yet, but I hope they figured out the elephant shoots water.
Oh they did. Thank the video game gods.
But they didn't figure out how to suck in water, though. That's going to be a problem later in the game.
hey sexy
^Thirstiest comment of 2018. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.......LOSER!
@@jasont.9559 Look at him... What do you expect
This is infuriating ...
Tracyn I actually yelled at my phone XD
I thought *James* was supposed to be the *Angry* Video Game Nerd ;P
hey there
@@wickheadthered Your a losa
Them losing their minds over a fracking electric swatter almost makes up for the zero effort they put into the game.
When I was a little kid (about 6 to 12 years old) me and my grandpa used to play the Donkey Kong games all the time and especially this one (also Kirby Avalanche which he was a beast at). Each time summer vacations arrived we would spend days, sometimes weeks at my grandparents place, play with the furniture and play the SNES. We did it so much he bought a SNES so that we didn't have to carry ours all the way there. These were the good old times. He tried to play newer games like Donkey Kong 64 or Super Smash Bros Melee but he didn't like them as much...
Looking back on it, it's quite amazing he was so good at Kirby Avalanche considering he is color blind.
Badass Grandpa.
@@CMOYoung Indeed 😎.
Electric tennisrackets have been around for years right.
Yes. Many years 👍
I'm a big fan of both James and Mike, but goddamn, seeing them having so much trouble with DKC3, which is one of my favorite games of all time, and blaming it on the game... Man it hurts on more than one level.
exactly, it stings
The Elephant has no special ability???? Guys the bananas are shaped like L and R right after you transform....it means you gather water with L and shoot with R that turns the guy into a Tank
... and you can shoot diagonally by holding "up". guess they'll never find out.
You guys have absolutely no gaming intuition and are terrible at learning from the game’s environment. This is painful to watch.
Matthew Smilansky right? How can this guy call himself a Video Game Nerd, when he sucks at playing?
@@saininj Like all nerds, he calls games he doesn't get 'terrible'
I don't know how you managed to beat DKC2 and still be this clueless on this game.
This was my favorite Donkey Kong game as a kid, so maybe I'm biased, but I spent half the video yelling "The bananas spell LR! You can get water on the barrels with LR!"
I have literally in 20 years never seen people suck so hard at this game. You guys are to blame here, not DKC3. DKC3 is excellent actually.
DrMatta Agreed
Reanot Oh, how original joke. And you listen what?
To fair DKC games ARE more difficult than Mario games, but I do have to agree.
They are terrible at games, period.
They suck in almost every game after 8 bits.
dumbo actually has a game, its called dumbos flying circus (for atari 2600).
"He has no abilities"
LR spelled out clearly in bananas on screen...
Gotta love how it takes them god knows how long to realize they can shoot water and then Mike says “you have to go into the water to get water!” And I literally facepalmed. That fucking “LR” bananas were just too complicated for them huh.
Man! Both sucks so hard in this one
Yeah but you do too
How did you guys figure out games like the legend of Zelda, and yet you can’t figure this game out?
I really like watching you guys, but sometimes it looks like you guys aren't playing the game for fun and it feels more like a chore...
They even mention that in the end, but I felt that from the start
It's not that weird since it's pretty much all they do for a living.
Yeah... and aslo they played dkc2 and 3 back to back, both in long sessions, even i don't like playing that much time similar games
hate to say it but as a content creator I can vouch. Sometimes you just don't want to deal with it but you have to make a video or you feel like you have to make the video
+Twintania Exactly
That Electric Racket it's really common in other countries, you guys finding it out is pretty funny haha
I wanna see your reaction when you tested it haha
Salve, Sr Wilson!
Yeah haha I was surprised they didn't knew about it
I live in California and I have one, they're awesome!
ColoniaContraAtaca they should touch it on they're tounge before killing flies with it. Or have one just for that lol its fun
I was going to tell that. I have one right next to me now lol
They use common batteries, arent dangerous at all, and on some flies it actully fry they hard enough to make a barbecue smell
Pretty handy
Right off the bat we got a lack of running.
For professional gamers they seem to make easily avoidable mistakes, the game even gives them hints and and they're like derp
Watching you fail so badly at my favorite DKC game was painful.
Andreas Nicklasson ...So very true...
It was rough.. I was getting so mad 😭
Stating that this is your favorite DKC is painful to read.
This game is no where even close to being bad. It’s a super easy game if you know what your doing
That was me weeks ago when they played DKC2. They really lack basic observation skills.
Watching james trying to get passed the mice was sooo infuriating to watch...
Absolutely useless, and have the nerve to call it bad...
Because objectively saying this game is bad is fucking dumb. Most of their shortcomings come from the fact that they can't understand basic game mechanics.
Eternia well what’s to stop me calling you a moron?
They said it WASN'T bad right at the end.
LaMereACaniche I think there are hundreds of games out there were you don‘t get the game mechanics.......
“I hate this Dumbo, it’s terrible” says the guy that doesn’t think about hitting Y to shoot water. Jesus fuck.
Pay absolutely no attention to the bananas, they don't mean anything important. 😂
By far my fave DK game, took me ages to realise Wrinkly Kong is playing Super MARIO 64 on her N64! So weird to think that an N64 game is being playing inside an SNES game!
This is one of my favorite snes games.. so hard to watch you guys play it tho... 😂
There better be a James and Mike Monday video on that fly zapper.
I hope it comes with instructions or else they might have a hard time finding the button to turn on the damn thing. :x
@@eriscrowe486 ROFL the worst is that they rarely read instructions.
Electric bug swatters have actually been around for a while. They're great fun to zap your friends with!
bdsm lol
I guess them used to playing shitty old NES games with bad controls made them worse at playing normal fun games with better controls??
Why is it that whenever I see someone play this game, they almost put no effort into playing the game?
Because they're above looking at manual
So many people have so much nostalgia for DKC2 that they dislike DKC3 because it's not the exact same as DKC2, even though DKC3 had some unique innovations to the DKC formula: unique level design in every level, open world exploration elements, and it has some of the best graphics of any SNES game.
DKC3 is easily the worst game of the 3. Its very gimmicky and levels arent nearly as intuitive. That said, its still a great game. It just doesnt have the flow of the prior two since a different team at RARE did 3.
Worst of the 3 doesn't make it a bad game though. One of them has to be the worst.
Can't really call that open world can you, big exaggeration.
It's really not a very good game... especially coming after the immortal master piece DKC2 was.
The gameplays from JMM are mostly good, but this one was really poor, folks. I mean, the game is pretty intuitive, there was a big "L AND R" written on screen, and still guys were better off trashing it for no reason. If you're not there to enjoy a video-game, you gotta at least put some effort before criticising.

Found Dumbo in this game...
Dumbo appears in the popular PlayStation 2 game Kingdom Hearts in the form of a summon that the player can call upon in battle for aid. Sora, the protagonist, flies on him and Dumbo splashes enemies with water from his trunk.[46]
The Ringmaster appears as one of four villains in Disney's Villains' Revenge. In the game, the Disney Villains alter the happy endings from Jiminy Cricket's book; in particular, the Ringmaster forces Dumbo to endlessly perform humiliating stunts in his circus. In the end, the Ringmaster is defeated when he is knocked unconscious by a well-aimed custard pie.
Painful when james kept dying at the bee lol
Apparently if it's not a game they have played before age 5, they are utterly unable to learn how to play it. Christ.
It's impressive how long they took to find that the dumbo throws water, i mean, look at the fucking water meter!!!!
When Snow White dies, she comes back to life. But when Bambi's mother was killed, she didn't come back. That's why I have a deeper appreciation for Bambi more than some of the other Disney classics because there was no fairy dust or magic kiss to bring someone back to life. In Bambi, she died and she's dead forever.
Yeah. Bambi is one of the strongest tearjerkers. I remember crying when I was a kid when he lost his mother to hunters. Believe it or not, I have still not seen Snow White. lol
Lol you gotta hold the Y button in these games
Holy crap look at the bananas it's the left trigger to fill up the water and then you can shoot the enemies
"Looking forward to killing fly's with an electric racket is probably the most backwards thing I've ever done"
Hahaha I'm crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣
such a shame to see how you guys handled this game its not hard if you pay attention. This is one of the best super nintendo games and you did yourself and the game a disservice
It is the worst of the DKC series.....that is common knowledge
Worst game ever
@@jojoface4940 you're opinion. I think this one is the best
Omg watching you guys play this drove me crazy! :V
Holy s***, Mike predicted the future. "Imagine you're playing Super Mario World and you turn into a Elephant." @MikeMatei
The Rare team that made DKC, and DKC2 made Banjo-Kazooie franchise. The Rare team that made DKC3 made DK64.
This game is much better than the previous 2 DC games on SNES. It still looks good today. But you guys should learn the controls before diving into it :p
Impvespa not better than dkc2
You Guys Aren't Utilizing The Abilities Of The Elephant (He Can Shoot Water Out Of His Trunk And Can Air Suction Barrels Toward Him With His Trunk) And You Aren't Holding Down That Y Button To Dash. In DKC3, Dash Is Your Best Friend. This Game Gets No Respect.
Michael J. Rox they do 2/3 of those guy
Now everyone is going to think it's a bad game, because of these guys.
13:40 Mike does a fucking funny impersonation of someone wanting to fry a bug with those TENNIS racket bug friers. lol
Fireflies are endangered, don't electro-swat them.
Guys, the electical racket is an Asian thing.. it works great, been using it for more than a decade
You guys didn't know about the electric fly squatters?
"it's the same razorback bees that were in every DKC game"
????
its impossible to play that bad , they are obviously acting to trigger some DKC 3 fans , prove me wrong !
Did you secretly give the controller to DarksidePhil?
“You smell that egg being fried by that electric tennis racket, thats freedom”
I've been using those electric tennis racket for years.
the toddler neice of a friend of mine once touched an electric fly swatter with her tongue.
she got knocked out for a few seconds but wanted to try it again :D
Bambi's mom didn't burn to death she was shot by Hunters
Is babmi a Chinese knockoff bambi? ;)
HAHAHAHA let me fix that real quick :D
geez okay i fixed it LOL
Minute 23 was so painful you guys. Just push the buttons.
Guys you should play Plok for the SNES, the spider boss from that game is more fun to kill than the spider boss from this one.
Totally thought James was gonna put BEWBS at the beginning.
I watch to many Honest Trailers
Play Resident Evil 2 on the N64!
This is the most irritating episode of this series I think they've done. It's infuriating watching them fail so badly at some of the most blatantly simple and self-explanatory parts in the game, and then having the nerve to call it bad. It's videos like this that make me wonder how they've ever made it through ANY platformers before. If they're not enjoying the game, and don't care enough to put even the slightest bit of effort in, then why bother with this series? Total disservice to a classic game.
kaneinight agreed.
Couldn´t have said it better!
Watching them fail on the elephant level makes me wonder how many "shitty games" that James reviewed might not have been "shitty games".
@LunaticThinker A lot of that is done for comedy. McKids is probably the most blatant example.
Overreaction *cough
I cant believe you guys having so much trouble with this one, its not even hard!
Those electric fly swatters are a God send for killing wasps. Never go without one at the cabin. Funny to see something so common to me be such a novelty to them.
