Donkey Kong Country

"Until then, I got a little tip for ya, DK". [DK: "Yeah? What's that?"] "GO HOME AND LET ME GET SOME SLEEP!!"

"Arrrrgh! This story's even worse than DKC! They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel this time!"

"Bah! The lad had a couple of frames in DKC and now he thinks he's a big star!"

"So let's see what nonsense they've made up for this game, shall we? Hmm... well, I have to hand it to them. This time they've managed to come up with a decent storyline that doesn't involve the usual golden bananas. Only joking kids! This one's worse than all the previous efforts put together! I know you probably aren't expecting a best seller, but wait till you hear this load of rubbish..."

""[Diddy is] quick, nimble and courageous but still a bit of a lightweight when compared to my fine physique. He's also got this new-fangled thing he calls a Jetbarrel, but it sounds like nothing more than a lot of hot air to me"."

"Tiny can also shrink in size--although I reckon that one's nothing more than a marketing gimmick and won't even be in the game!"

""Those silly stretchy arms give [Lanky] plenty of potential, but I'm sure he'll be too busy clowning around to be of much use"."

"Just remember that we rightfully expect our expertise to be rewarded, so do collect a good haul of Banana Bunch Coins before you even think about disturbing me, won't you?"

""My powerful potions will give you abilities you've never dreamed of and certainly don't deserve, assuming of course you can afford my modest asking fee. Now don't you go asking me for a potion of gameplay, as even my genius can't rescue this game from its rightful destiny in the bargain bin"."

"I could defeat [K. Rool] single-handedly of course, but then you wouldn't have a game to play would you?"

""I knew they'd have to have something like this. The Kongs will be so weighed down with all the garbage they have to collect, I can't see them getting past the second level. You can view all this silly nonsense and some other stuff I don't understand by pressing START during your game"."

"Now where did they put the level I designed? Hmm... I can't seem to find it. It was called the 'Great Girder Grapple' as I remember. Oooh, I must have spent at least 3 minutes working on it. I even drew them a fancy little picture. Bah! It must have been too good for them. The kids would have refused to play their fancy 3-D levels once they'd gotten a taste of my 2-D girder action! Don't give up hope though; they might have hidden it somewhere like a priceless gem, hoping that no one will ever find it..."

""I was gonna call [Cranky] something else, but... you were present"."

"Someone sure has a vivid imagination! I've been everywhere and I can tell you that none of these places actually exist!"

"Copy?! Who'd want to copy this game?"

""Not unless you got a weedwacker and a couple of hours"."

"Err... Nope! None of these baddies are in! They must have slipped in the wrong instruction manual or something!"

"Tired of me? You're lucky I'm here to brighten up this boring manual!"

"Why couldn't you have disappeared forever instead of my ball?"

"Help, Diddy! I've fallen, and I can't get up! Can you pass me a banana, little buddy?"

"Does anyone ever actually use these memo pages? Waste of paper if you ask me!"

"I can't believe you're still reading this! What you need is a good trashing!"

""Only one thing worse than a bruised banana... a bruised butt"."

"It sounds crazy, but so is everything else that's happened today!"

"Visit me first and give me all your coins! I'm far more useful than these other sad-looking bums!"

"Ah, the rare flora-dora orchid. And today's the one day a year you bloom for five seconds, when the sun is in exactly... that position. Say cheese! I've only got five seconds. Work with me here. Hey, how come you're still here? The sun should've shifted. Great jumpin' bananas! The sun's not moving! That can't be good..."

"[Turns red & angrily throws cap on the ground and starts jumping on it] "You just lost my lucky ball!""

""I've never known any problem that couldn't be solved with a little nap"."

"Its finally over. Now, how do you get outta here? (screams, than fall into a trap and close the trap, than kick off the feet)"

""Why is there not an election to determine the future ruler of Kongo Bongo?" ~Blast Off"

""When ya wanna be there like now, Funky's Flights is the way to go!" ~Funky"

""I'm just one sneaky, peeping, two-bit step away from becoming an even richer richest ape on Kongo Bongo Island - and that's rich". ~Bluster"

""Hey DK! I made your favorite! It's a 3-layer cake! Bananas, bananas, and bananas!" ~Candy"

""Marry me, Candy, and everything that's mine is yours, except for what's in this prenuptial agreement". ~Bluster"

""Too late, lizard lips! The babes went cruisin' with what you're losin' from the second you made the scene!" ~Funky"

""Wait a minute, not so fast! I want to go over that 'richer-poorer' part again with my lawyer!" ~Bluster"

""Can't we get this show on the road? I'm losing a fortune standing around here!" ~Bluster"

""Whoa! Check it out, dudes! Never saw green clouds before... well, maybe once. Hey! Where'd all that water come from?!" ~Funky, while flying upside-down"

""There, how could Candy possibly resist me now? (looks at his comb) What's this? Hair? My hair?? AAH! My hair's falling out!!" ~Bluster"

""I can't use this. So what if I've lost a bit of hair? ...AAH! MORE HAIR!! I'm shedding!" ~Bluster"

""I'd rather go on the picnic with your stupid robot than with you!" ~Candy"

""That unimaginative Donkey Kong would be more than happy to trade whatever treasure he finds for a... station wagon to cargo his bananas around". ~Bluster"

""Finally, somebody who speaks my language! Welcome, bro!" ~Funky"

""Uh-oh!" ~Dixie"

""You want to see the Lost World? What channel is that on, Dixie?" ~Wrinkly"

""Writing? Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that involve knowing something like, say, the alphabet?" ~Bluster"

""Like the terminal dude said... I'll be back!" ~Funky"

""Hey, I think you've played this game before, haven't you?!" ~Swanky"

""I'm glad Cranky doesn't know about this new console. If he did, I'd never be able to get him off it!" ~Wrinkly"

"I've never seen so much worthless rubbish! I'm surprised they don't give you a special 'trash barrel' to haul it all around in!"
