So glad that no one’s actually getting electrocuted. And, yes, the image below is definitely from one of the Donkey Kong Country games.
But which one? What detail does it portray? Is a mechanic that got cut from the game or one that made it in?
And this Game Boy diagram looks like some kind of biometric pre-cursor to the missing-on-action Wii Vitality Sensor. Whatever happened to that thing?
And this last one? Man, I just don’t know.
