Donkey Konga is a GameCube rhythm game starring the ape Donkey Kong, developed by Namco and published by Nintendo. Instead of the standard GameCube controllers, the game is intended to be played with a special controller called the DK Bongos that resemble two small bongo drums.

Donkey Konga was developed by the same team of people who made the Taiko: Drum Master. The songs include hits such as Louie Louie, We Will Rock You, Shining Star, Rock Lobster. There are songs from the Mario series, the The Legend of Zelda series and other Nintendo related music. The Japanese, PAL, and US versions have different track lists. The different versions have between 31 and 33 songs.

Problems

DK Bongos

If using a USB adapter, the Bongos controller will work with Dolphin. Some USB adapters may not have the analog trigger support needed for the microphone to work, so make sure it is a fully functional USB adapter. Set Port 1 to "TaruKonga (Bongos)" in Config > GameCube; this is needed for real bongos to work properly.

Configuration

This title does not need non-default settings to run properly.
