''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' is a [[Platform Game]] starring [[Donkey Kong]], made by [[Nintendo]] for the [[Nintendo
The storyline is [[Excuse Plot|minimal]]: A kingdom of small monkeys living in the jungle have had their bananas stolen by a group of evil kings, so they call on the big ape to retrieve them and teach the baddies a lesson on their behalf. Collecting scattered bananas increases Donkey Kong's stamina; as an interesting feature, the more elaborate the acrobatics he uses to reach them, the more stamina they're worth. The stamina comes in handy at the end of every other stage, as Donkey Kong faces off with one of the evil kings.
