I've never played this, so I'm very excited to finally try this out. Wonderful announcement in my book.
I am always glad of more DK, but I also want a new DK. Anyways I'll take it, a port of one of the best 2d games ever.I know we all wanted a brand new game, but this was an awesome announcement for me. It means we have every single DKC game available on the Switch now, and if you ask me, DKCR is one of the best of them. Sure, Tropical Freeze is better, but DKCR's got the edge in classic vibes if you dig that. I'll be all over this one - one of the best Wii and platforming games I ever played.
I have to think it's just a holdover for something coming on Switch 2Nice to see higher detail Models for dk and diddy, and this is a good game so I'm glad its available…but yeah, ngl after this long without a new dk game, this feels like a slap to the face
Yes. Tropical Freeze is better, but this is still one of the best 2D platformers of all-time. If you haven't played it yet, buy it without hesitation.I thought Tropical Freeze was one of the best 2D platformers ever made. Would I like this too?
Returns will make you appreciate DiddyI thought Tropical Freeze was one of the best 2D platformers ever made. Would I like this too?
What!? TF was fairly hard to 100%, and Returns is harder? Oh boy.Returns will make you appreciate Diddy
Anyway just be aware this is a way more difficult game than TF. TF is a “lessons learned” type of project.
I can only prayCopium: We will see a new Donkey Kong game by 2027 at the latest.
If switch 1 continues to be powered for a year or two after the release of switch 2, I don’t see why there could not be a new Donkey Kong crosgen game, in a purely theoretical way.However, at the end of the day it just another port of a 14-year-old game and confirms that the Switch will be the first home console since the NES to not have a DK game of its own.
Probably? It has shorter, more numerous, and less unique levels; more akin to a Mario game. And the music and art design are a lot weaker. Expect it to lack the flow of Tropical Freeze and be a lot more stop and start too.I thought Tropical Freeze was one of the best 2D platformers ever made. Would I like this too?
I love Returns and Dread equally so this is good news to me!DKC Returns is a bit like the Samus Returns to Tropical Freeze's Dread; a remarkable game that served a tremendous reestablishment of the franchise, but not entirely there with its ideas and having its successor polish the shakier gameplay elements initially introduced.
What? Was this in the trailer?bonus: fun fact that nobody noticed
Same. TF is more polished but Returns is so much betterI dunno guys I liked Returns more than TF and I’m a DKC OG.
They also bought the Studio who made the MK1 Switch ports.I'm glad Nintendo has enough confidence in the DK brand to delegate porting duties to a shovelware studio. Then again, they gave Zelda to the makers of Funky Barn.

Lmao, understandablealmost fell off my chair
Yeah that makes sense in retrospect, but back then I never imagined that meant remaking/remastering actual Nintendo games, and even less from an IP as big as Donkey Kong.reminder:
