'''DK Bongos''' are bongo-like controllers for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] – the ''Donkey Konga'' series utilizes them for the most part. Each side of the controller is shaped like a classic Donkey Kong barrel with a rubber drumskin fastened on top. It also has a built-in microphone to detect clapping (although hitting the sides of it also functions well). In the Donkey Konga series, the DK Bongos detect left and right hits, and clapping. | |||
[[ | In Japan the controller is called the TaruKonga (or "TaruConga") controller. The name is a multilayered pun, combining "Taru" (the Japanese word for "barrel"), "Kon", or "Con" (a suffix used by Namco when naming their original peripherals, such as the "GunCon", or the "TaTaCon"), and Konga (or Conga). | ||
