Did I... REALLY expect people to believe that Donkey Kong (1994) was just Donkey Kong? Even though it was literally JUST named Donkey Kong?
No, not really. But thanks for playing along for AN ENTIRE DAY before bursting my bubble that maybe it was slightly clever.
I get TWO paychecks this way!

discord.gg/bKT9pRW
Oh, wait, no... ... ... I dont get even ONE of them. My mistake!
For extra funsies, hows about playing the thing WITHOUT the parts that ostensibly make it Super and not just Game Boy?
To get down to just the pixels and utterly defeat any purpose to playing it like this at all, try here:
https://youtu.be/25-gv0Fe7xE
I think its pretty fun that the border is mocked up in the style of an old Donkey Kong arcade cabinet... although the details are a bit... strained... in order to fit within the limitations of the Super Nintendo video output with any degree of clarity.
Im going to be super up-front about this... ... ... I screwed up.
I was super gung-ho about capturing this monstrosity of double-vision (since when am I not? and do you think its a coincidence that multi-orientation DS gameplay videos so frequently stall out?!), because the Super Game Boy featues really make this game what it is... which naturally means that the border is... yknow... a significant artifact of the process of playing it.
So I rigged up a super... definitely-not-a-great-idea-by-any-sane-criterion capture method wherein I could get not only the full on-screen experience... but also the just-the-gameplay inner vision at play. A sort of hellish matryoshka nesting doll of video tomfoolery, if you will.
The PROBLEM is. When I did this. I was. very. WAY. too clever. about it. I guess. SOMEHOW.
...and as a result... I accidentlaly cropped out an entire row of pixels. Which, normally wouldnt be a total catastrophe... or whatever... but... ... ... well, the operative capture area is only 144 pixels tall. So the impact is quite a bit more pronounced than usual. A nearly 1% margin of error! Compared to ratios we deal in these days that are frequently a tenth of that!
(Really puts into different perspective the Vita cropping out 2 pixels from PSP native aspect ratio to be able to scale it up to the new screen resolution, huh?)
((No. No, it doesnt.))
Where this creates an issue is that the main gameplay interface has a particular width in mind for its content... and ONE element of it juts out just a little higher than the rest, the stylized staggered SC lingers one pixel higher than everything else. I didnt notice... and literally everything else seems to be edge-safe enough to have escaped unscathed.
The whole playthrough is a wash! Cancel it! Do it all over again! Thatll only take another who-knows-how-long living on a shelf to get around to starting publication!
Anyway, all that notwithstanding, the original game is just a big ol bait-and-switch introduction to the basic elements of whats to come. Compatible with the not-so-basic elements that remain Marios expanded moveset, no less!
Being able to finish 25m or 50m in like three seconds is already worth the price of admission.
Big City
Surprise! This isnt an arcade style platformer! ...its a PUZZLE platformer!
What do you mean it doesnt feel much like a puzzle? Thats only because the game is still easing you into the flow of things with some cozy little micro-action management set pieces. But the very first, most crucial element necessary for making the entire game function... is the key. You need to find a key, grab it, and successfully take it to the door if you want to clear most stages from here on out.
The exception of course would appear to be every fourth stage, which is a Donkey Kong stage, wherein the big lug will attempt to thwart your efforts directly.
It is also here that we get our first glimpse behind the curtain. Of all the games Nintendo created for just one of its exceedingly numerous criminally neglected gadgets and peripherals, THIS would appear to be the poster child for the creative vision that was the Super Game Boy.
If youre not familiar with how it works on a technical level... thats not surprising! Its witchcraft, I tells ya!
Actually, put simply... it can colorize with independent palettes for each of the Game Boy sprite layers in oddly discrete square regions screenwide. Just not in actually realtime execution.
If that sounds nuts, both in sheer potential... and ALSO in bizarre limitation not especially suited to video gaming... both are right!
Of course, in a scant couple years, we would see the much more straightforward and less bizarrely cobbled together vision that was the Game Boy Color, so perhaps the lesson to be learned here isnt one of effort always paying off...
However, the Game Boy Color is backwards compatible with Game Boy games, not Super Game Boy games. Thatd require access to a Super Nintendos processing power...")

Sorry if my stream archives seem even more all over the place in form factor than usual lately.
(although, ideally... you shouldnt even have noticed a difference from the YouTube user interface perspective?! LET ME KNOW ABOUT THAT TOO!)
...but Ive been grappling with a bit of an awkward but pesky and intractible audio bug wherein after about three hours or so, the audio desynchronizes in an awful hurry. Its a bit of an annoying thing to fix in the trenches of video and audio datastreams, but I do my best in the meantime while hopefully Ill make significantly less work for myself with much higher confidence that some weird little moments dont slip through the cracks anyway.
If you crave nothing more than to discard the massive scale purity of these pixels and their edges for a weirdly inappropriate accompanying puppet show:

(I mean, it STARTED thematically appropriate... then video game logic and the natural escalation of biome isolation took over...)
