pros: legitimately impressive handheld companion title to DKC, as little as possible is sacrificed to bring you a donkey kong country experience on the go. perhaps it would be redundant to play today if it was simply "donkey kong country but on the gameboy", but this is something of a sequel with all new levels, acting as a sort of "donkey kong country 1.5"

cons: I CANT SEE SHIT OH MY GOD MY EYES HURT WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS GIMMICK WHERE I HAVE TO JUMP ON A PLATFORM TO CHANGE ITS DIRECTION WHY ARE THERE SO MANY WATER LEVELS WHY DO THE BOSSES HAVE SO MUCH HP THIS GAME SUCKS
