Why Donkey Kong Jungle Beat Was The First E10+ Game

For a number of reasons, Donkey Kong Jungle Beat stood out from other games upon its U.S. GameCube release in 2005. It had the distinction of being the only platformer to make use of the DK Bongos, previously used only for the Donkey Konga games. Jungle Beat was also the first game to ever receive an E10+ rating from the U.S. video game ratings board, the ESRB.
