Donkey Kong (Game Boy)

Support

1. Cobold (talk) - I think it's time to nominate this project by me and Edofenrir now. Since the begin of our work, the article has been greatly expanded - it now features comprehensive lists of the levels, the enemies, the items, and so forth. It also features all official artwork from the game and explains the special gameplay features.
2. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - Lots of images and information, Per Cobold.
3. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Wow! Great job, guys! Per all!
4. Byllant (talk) - Per all, this article is great, covers almost everything or, well, everything with no exception, it has alot of images too.
5. Grandy02 (talk) - Per all, a great article full of information. Nice to see that a lesser known game gets the attention it deserves.
6. Edofenrir (talk) - The article got a heck of a lot improvement from what it originally used to be. You did a fabulous job there, Cobold. :3 (I didn't do very much, though. I just ripped the images. The hard formatting and texting work was done by you alone.)
7. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Great job guys. It looks just right for featuring!

Comments

Note: before you mention it, I did search the internet for critical reception of the game, but was unable to find any compulsive review of it. - Cobold (talk)

Two reviews: Nintendojo and Video Games. The latter is a German magazine, but at least it's a review from the time the game was released. --Grandy02 06:38, 22 January 2010 (EST)

I won't oppose, but why not get images for the obstacles and and objects? Reversinator (talk)

They cannot be easily cropped, all I can see working are screenshots. - Cobold (talk) 07:46, 22 January 2010 (EST)

Something minor: Aren't the "springs" that appear in 75m supposed to be jacks? At least that is what the Brawl trophy says. --Grandy02 (talk)

I'm not sure about the naming of those things, but the article was just called "Springs". - Cobold (talk) 15:47, 22 January 2010 (EST)

So, did the critical reception and the jacks. About images of objects and obstacles, I'm still not sure how those would even be implemented. - Cobold (talk) 07:33, 23 January 2010 (EST)

Can anyone fix the Big City picture?? Please? It should be in grayscale, just like all the other pictures. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

No it shouldn't. We use coloured pictures were available, as it is the official colour version from the Super Game Boy. The rest should also be colored, but we don't have screenshots of those maps available in colour. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 15:30, 24 January 2010 (EST)

I happen to have colored versions of every map, but they don't have the black border that says "6-1", "4-1", etc. as well as the number of lives Mario has, if that's ok. --Garlic Man (talk) EDIT: They're all in color now.

Oh, ok. I have no knowledge of this game whatsoever so excuse me for my error. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)
