TotalGames.netMenus aren't quite so easy to navigate as they were previously but then that's only because there's so much more to do now and as trade-offs go, this is one we're quite happy to abide. [JPN Import]

The sparse menus aren't up to Nintendo's usual standard and the game is lacking in an abundance of minigames, but with a storming collection of songs covered and fun and challenging gameplay, Donkey Konga 2 is perhaps the best party game ever. [NGC Pocket]

Pelit (Finland)Surprisingly funny rythm action game. The bongo controller is definitively a must. [July. 05]
-
It is evident that Nintendo has made the effort to make this game more appealing towards the general public with more hip and modern music then the original.
-
The decision to toss videogame themes and classic oldies songs for a bunch of forgettable rock/pop and hip-hop tunes marks a bad move on the part of Nintendo. Yes, it's cool that Nintendo has tried to appeal to a mass audience, but it can't forget its fanbase either.
-
The game doesn't push the boundaries of gaming in any form, although it's certainly much more fun than Donkey Konga with more content and a better defined 'videogame' structure encompassing it.
-
If you didn't notice already, this means that there were not only no Nintendo songs, but there were no children songs, either.
-
It brings new life to the bongos.
-
It's a shame that there were so few Nintendo themes and so much of only a few genres.
-
Nintendo PowerAn encore with a new set of songs and the same infectious rhythm-based gameplay for up to four players. [June 2005, p.97]
-
The most surprising addition to the mix has got to be Yankee Doodle. Playing through that song with the conga beat in the background is something different. [JPN Import]
