Help Should I play DK Jungle Beat with emulated Bongos, the GC pad or the Wii version?

An unusual game with unusual controls is unusual to emulate

Perhaps the Bongos being emulated with a pad would work better than the actual GC pad control scheme.

The clap can still be managed with Dolphin?

Or play the superior Wii version, though the GC version with a controller seems to work fine imo, you get used to flicking the stick auickly.

What makes the motion control better? I don't even know how it would play like.

Could one figure out a way to make it work with Rock Band drums or a Taiko drum contoller?

It plays like a traditional game on the Wii, you use the nunchuck thumbstick to move DK and you press the A button to jump, only difference is you shake the wii remote and nunchuck to do the "clapping/bongo" special attacks, it works rather well, plus the Wii version has a few changes and refinements as well as a couple of extra levels.

GC version can be played fully with a GC controller, only difference is instead of holding a direction to move you flick the stick in that direction, is a bit unorthodox but you get used to it rather quickly.

I never had the bongos so Idk how those feel like, also unrelated but the Donkey Konga series can also be played with a GC controller, but keep in mind each region got completely different games, making it seven Donkey Konga games on opposed to most sites saying they are only 2 or 3, I think it's up for personal preference but I say stay away from the US versions, their song collection sucks, Japanese versions are my personal pick.

It’s up to you. You either want to give your hands a workout, or your arms a workout. The Wii Version is a lot less noisy though. And has a little bit of extra content.

Consider getting the bongos on ebay if you like the game. They are not too expensive.
