Next up is Donkey Kong Country, a game I'm not particularly crazy about. Prior to this posting, I have never achieved 101% in this game, despite many hours of trying. As a symbolic fresh start, I have deleted my previous save files; it's time to do it right.

The fact that I have never properly cleared this game is the main reason I chose this over its sequels, both of which I feel are superior to the original. Also, I suppose it is more iconic.

This playthrough is now complete.

As promised, this game isn't an action-platformer, it's back to regular platformers (the list of games that make for good viewing doesn't encompass a huge range of genres). This game is a lot like the Capcom Disney games, except made by Konami, so you can expect a fairly easy game with a lot of opportunities for hotdogging (a few of which result in my demise).

Well, here's yet another action-platformer (I'll have to make sure the next game I do is from some other genre). After all the recent press around Batman from Arkham Asylum, I figured I'd get in on the Bat-action with Batman for Game Boy.

This is played via Super Game Boy, I've even set the border to the theatre one so you can feel like you're watching the original Tim Burton movie. Except without the plot and with a lot more guns.

Here I've listed a handful of games I've considered doing runs for. If you have a particular preference for one of these games, you can vote for it here. There's no guarantee that a game that gets a lot of votes would get done right away, but it might influence me when picking the next game to do.

Should I switch to using Youtube?

I'm just a guy who plays far too many video games. I own an Intellivision, NES, SNES, N64, Playstation, Playstation 2, Gamecube, Dreamcast, Wii, Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Advance, DS, and PSP, as well as far more games than I could count.

I started doing these game runs both as a way to show off and to challenge myself. Mostly the former, though.
