Nintendo Gamecube Donkey Konga Set SKU5008 (boxed)

Nintendo Gamecube Donkey Konga Set SKU5008 (boxed).  Donkey Konga (ドンキーコンガ Donkī Konga) is a GameCube rhythm video game starring the ape Donkey Kong, developed by Namco and published by Nintendo. Instead of the standard GameCube controllers.  The game is controlled via the included conga controller and has up to four players hitting the two drums and clapping their hands in the rhythm to more than 30 tunes, including Latin classics like Mambo No. 5, music from Donkey Kong and Super Mario, as well as TV commercial tracks, J-Pop, anime title songs (Kirby, Pokemon, Hamtaro), and even classic and folk music. Donkey Konga offers a variety of modes and difficulty levels. Players earn coins by accurately beating their drums, which they can spend on new sound schemes that replace the conga noises (such as dog barks or sounds from past Nintendo games) or expert challenges.

There are different levels of gameplay, from beginner to advanced. In fact, if you do really well, you can earn remix versions of songs and buy truly advanced versions to play along with. Plus, there are multiplayer versions that let multiple players play together or in competition with each other.

There are mini-games to test your skills, and a shop where you can trade in your earned points for new bongo sets.

The Japanese, PAL, and US versions have different track lists.

• Non-stop musical mayhem as you drum along to 30 songs, from childhood classics to modern hits

• Earn coins for keeping up with the beat, then use the coins to buy new sounds and add new elements to the music
