Today is the day that Donkey Konga should be coming out.
For anyone who gets it, post up what you think!
[edit]
Ok, I just spent an hour playing Donkey Konga and would have played even more but I wanted to post my impressions.
So here are my thoughts.
Donkey Konga is really, really fun! The song selection is better than what I was expecting, and more challenging than I think most people assume. Trying to conga to the Legend of Zelda theme was a bit hard, even on the lowest difficulty setting. I could attribute this to DK being the first drumming game I've played. But for anyone who's already had experience with drums from another game or perhaps from importing DK, there are higher levels of difficulty to make it more challenging. The song selection so far is pretty diverse. I'm not sure if there's songs to unlock, but I would assume so. There's everything from Nintendo classics (like the aforementioned LoZ theme) to modern pop (Blink 182's All the Small Things) to sort of techno (Busy Child) to Motown (Dancing In the Street, You Can't Hurry Love). I've been loving it.
I can definitely see Donkey Konga as a huge party game and a fun game to play at family get togethers like Thanksgiving and Christmas.
