Selling more than 9 million copies, this went on to become the third-best-selling Super Nintendo title in history.
First game to introduce state of the art wire-frame 3D technology, producing high quality 3D animation.
Cranky Kong is meant to be the original Donkey Kong, from the old arcade games.
The first level in the game, Jungle Hijinx, is the only level that changes to nighttime. Some other levels in the game go through weather changes such as rain and snow.
Both playable characters have their strengths and weaknesses. Donkey Kong is slower than Diddy and considerably less agile, but has more strength, so he can defeat enemies with a jumping attack that Diddy could not. Likewise, Diddy lacks physical strength but can move more quickly and jump higher than Donkey, making him able to reach areas his partner could not.
