During Nintendo's E3 1997 press conference, NOA's Howard Lincoln argued the case for the N64's success in the US market, showing a list of the top-selling video games (so far) in 1997. Hilariously, not only was Donkey Kong Country 3 on the list, but so was DKC2. More to come on the #Kongversation.

July 9th is Donkey Kong's 45th anniversary! Gird yourself for a live #Kongversation this Thursday at 6 PM EDT/3 PM PDT (11 PM BST) as Dustin and I honor four-and-a-half decades since Cranky first climbed a construction site. We'll also preview the NEXT 45 years of Donkey Kong! www.twitch.tv/dkvine

Happy 45 to the GOAT himself, the one and only DONKEY KONG! Thank you for making me fall in love with gaming, capturing my imagination for almost my whole life, and bringing me together with a crew of like minded weirdos that I've known longer than most people in my life at this point!

It was 45 years ago today that the first Donkey Kong cabinets hit arcades! Happy four-and-a-half decades to Cranky Kong and the larger Donkey Kong series. May you continue your old man rants about how this was the best Donkey Kong game long after we've all joined your wife in the hereafter.

The #Kongversation discusses the Super Pocket Rare Edition! What do we think of the new build of Banjo-Kazooie? Does the classic 3D platformer even work with a D-Pad? Is it worth the purchase? And did I accidentally wreck a beloved bit in Conker's Pocket Tales? www.dkvine.com?p=podcasts&s...

The key art to the Kongversation's "Super Pocket Rare Edition First Impressions" episode. Banjo & Kazooie play the Super Pocket Rare Edition by the fireplace in Banjo's house.
