Mike invites a long time friend over to celebrate his game’s anniversary. Will 30 year old cereal, shameless self promotion and an introspective retrospective get in the way? Find out as we rewind the clock back to not only chat with some of Rareware’s developers on the creation of Donkey Kong Country, but also its personal impact via the marketing strategies. It’s time to celebrate Donkey Kong Country’s 30th anniversary on Dude, You Haven’t Played This Game?!
