The DK Gorilla Project was one of the web series featured on the DKTV microsite made by experiencepop
[1] and published by Nintendo to promote the release of Donkey Kong 64 by Rare Soft.
Premise
It was a spoof of The Blair Witch Project similar to The Scooby Doo Project, about a group of friends lost in the woods with VHS cameras investigating a mystery, except instead of trying to find the Blair Witch they were trying to find Donkey Kong.
Testimony from forum lines[2] recalls a few moments from the series, such as what can be described as the crew reacting to a pile of bananas they found on the ground and other clues that lead them to a cabin where they play DK64 in the end.
Availability
Its certain that those videos were hosted on donkeykong64
[3] the official Donkey Kong website between 1999 and 2000, it ran for six episodes and each one lasted between a minute and two, taking into account the video bandwidth limitations of the time.
it's unknown if it was available anywhere after the year 2001.
