New Archive - September 1999
- As you can see, we have finally gotten our new layout up. What do you think of it? It loads much faster than the old one and I think it looks much better too. Email me and tell me what you think of it.
- We have had a change in our affiliates program. Affiliates now get a text link on our main page and a button link on our affiliates page, becasue all of the button were taking too long to load. If you have a problem with it, you can change out link to a text link. To find out why some links are bold and some aren't, check out the affiliates page.
- We should have more news on DK64 soon becasue I should get my latest Nintendo Power, which will feature an article on DK, any day now.

- I know this doesn't have to do with DK64, but today I got a chance to play Jet Force Gemini at my local Wal-Mart. This game is awesome. Its got beautiful graphics and is tons of fun to play. The onlt thing was the control and camera angle was a little hard to get used to, but once I got the hang of it, it was no problem and easy to control. I have no idea what level I played but got to play as Juno and had the pistol and the machine gun. This game is a must buy.

- I found out some more details on Donkey Kong 64. First of all, the game is supposed to have 85 hours of gameplay. Zelda had around 50, so you can just imagine the size of DK64.
- Also, each Kongs will have to find 5 bananas in each of the eight levels. For all you non-math people out there, that makes 200 golden bananas! Besides these golden bananas, you will find other useful items along your way, including: regular bananas, cherry flavored bananas, ammo, coins, and musical instruments and tons of other stuff.
- Nintendo has signed a promotional agreement with Dr Pepper, meaning the big ape will appear on cans of Dr. Pepper this winter, along with an under-the-cap contest where you can win loads of DK stuff. Speaking of contests, DK64 Central will have a contest pretty soon.
