:I shall bring back this question: Should the DK Bongos GameCube controller regain a page of its own or not? I personally think it really should get its own page, since it's a Donkey Kong-themed accessory with (originally) 4 compatible games, them being the [[Donkey Konga (series)|''Donkey Konga'' trilogy]] and ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', along with its planned use for the cancelled GameCube release of ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'' before it became a Wii game, and in the WiiWare title ''{{wp|Plättchen Twist 'n' Paint}}'', where it was planned to have a multiplayer mode that includes 4 DK Bongos but Nintendo requested the functionality to be removed. The DK Bongos themselves were inspired by the [[Bongo Blast]] move in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', and later appeared with the same design as the controller as part of Donkey Kong's Final Smash, [[Konga Beat]], in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]'' (and appears unused in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''). There are also other games that can be played with the DK Bongos (either intentionally or unintentionally), such as ''{{wp|Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun!}}'' on Switch (unintentional, but [https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/07/random_dk_bongos_are_the_perfect_substitute_for_hori_taiko_drum_controller an article was made about it working well]), and 3 indie games such as ''[https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2016/11/random_pc_indie_title_gives_you_a_reason_to_dust_off_those_donkey_konga_bongos Beat Nebula]'', ''[https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2016/11/random_pc_indie_title_gives_you_a_reason_to_dust_off_those_donkey_konga_bongos Squatbot]'', and ''[https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2022/08/random-this-new-pc-platformer-is-designed-to-be-played-with-dk-bongos Beat Bull]''. There's probably other games that planned to support the DK Bongos, or other indie games that support them, but those are just the ones I've seen mentionned before on like Wikipedia. There is also the fact the DK Bongos are pretty popular in some challenge runs by people online (like how some people beat [https://www.pcgamesn.com/sekiro-shadows-die-twice/sekiro-rhythm-game ''Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice''] and ''[https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2017/12/random_completing_zelda_breath_of_the_wild_using_donkey_kong_bongos The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild]'' using that controller). Anyways due to all of these reasons, I really believe the DK Bongos should have an article of its own. An argument could also be made about the Nintendo GameCube Action Pad made for ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]'' to be honest, since it also is a controller made specifically for at least one Mario-related game. If the [[Nintendo GameCube Broadband Adapter]], an accessory that wasn't specifically made for a Mario-related game but is compatible with... [[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!|a single Mario game]], then surely we can have articles for two accessories that were made specifically for Mario-related games, with Mario-related designs too, and that are pretty noteworthy, right? Oh also sorry for the wall of text, I just really like the DK Bongos and think it really deserves a page. --[[User:Metalex123|Metalex123]] ([[User talk:Metalex123|talk]]) 20:38, February 20, 2023 (EST) | |||
