The game was originally developed to be controlled using the DK Bongos for the [[GameCube]]; the left and right drums would steer in their respective directions, and rolling both drums accelerated. When the game was moved to the [[Wii]], the DK Bongos were replaced with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, having the player shake the controller in place of hitting the drums. The game has faced with generally negative reviews from critics, criticizing the replaced bongo control scheme with that using the Wii Remote, as well as the last-generation visuals.
