Donkey Konga 2 is the sequel to Donkey Konga for the Nintendo GameCube, a game where you must pound on a special, barrel-like controller called the DK Bongos along with a selected song.

The main selling point of Donkey Konga 2 is over 30 new songs to play the Bongos to. Other features include slightly improved graphics, the inclusion of some classic Donkey Kong characters and a variety of new minigames.

Donkey Konga 2 garnered some media attention for a review on GameSpy.com, written by Nich Maragos. Apparently he originally gave the game a 1.5/5.0, but GameSpy increased the score and added compliments. They later retracted the review. His comments may be found on his blog

One point that may have led to some backlash against the sequel was the initial song list. Blu Cantrell's "Hit Em Up Style" was a questionable inclusion to many, and the title "Wish You Were Here" led many to believe Pink Floyd had a song in the game. However, the song was actually the Incubus song "I Wish You Were Here" mis-titled. No artists were named in the song list.
