All Death Animations - Donkey Kong [Gameboy]
Donkey Kong for the Game Boy, known by many as Donkey Kong '94, is a puzzler game based on the original 1981 arcade hit featuring Mario and Donkey Kong, as well as it's sequel, Donkey Kong Junior. Instead of having 4 levels and an infinite loop, this game has an overworld and a definitive ending.
The game is more well known for it's puzzling gameplay and slick controlling of Mario, movement comparable to Super Mario 64, featuring backflips and triple jumps.
In this video, although a bit different than my others, shows off (supposedly) all of the unique death animations that occur to Mario. Note that this isn't a video showing everything that can kill you in the game, but simply every different animation Mario can possibly display.
Thanks for watching! If I missed any, tell me. :)

EDIT (7/9/2024): WOW, I had no idea this video did this well over the years. Admittedly, if I were to anticipate this turn-out, maybe I would have made this channel a dedicated death animation archive. That being said, there's many other channels on YT that are dedicated to just that, and doubling down on videos like this feels like too wide of a jump in channel focus, even for me as a variety channel.
Not to mention, I wouldn't want to catch any competitive heat from those channels; the fellow YTers who upload death reels like this are often old-school VGers who land somewhere in the Let's Play soul-food types. As much as I enjoy many streamers nowadays, the people who take it upon themselves to document games with little-to-no interweaving their image or branding are keystones to classic gaming culture on the internet. With how video sharing has transformed over the last decade or so, it's easy to write off some of these efforts as "content mills," but being around as long as I have has taught me better than that.
You can probably tell with my latest uploads, but I'd say the vast majority of my content is as personal as I can make it, and I think at this point it wouldn't be appropriate to make content like this further without a new channel and a different format. Because of what I mentioned earlier however, that this has been done for many, many games across multiple channels, I don't think it makes sense to do this personally for my route. So, I'm writing this and saying this because although this video is clearly a very strange tangent case on my channel, and I'm not likely to make another one like it, I want to keep it up for history's sake. It taught me a lot about how this site works, and that's a lot more than I thought would happen when I uploaded this. Thanks again for all the nostalgic and kind comments, love you all!
