[OctoSplattack]

...Why would you do this?

 

[GamerJM]

Not funny.

 

[carbvan]

FUCKING. DONKEY KONG?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

[Raccoon]

I'm sorry man I really wish I had laughed at this

it was a good try

 

[lemonfresh]

Gonna bring back some old gifs for this

 

[Jbone916]

Those twitter replies though…

[Dark Cloud]

Ugh…

Was it though?

 

[Skittzo]

This could've been a slight chuckle if it was just a regular shitpost in the thread.

 

[Lugia667]

I mean it says fun club in it guys....

 

[Skittzo]

I mean it says fun club in it guys....

But that rather explicitly implies that there is going to be fun involved

 

[Lugia667]

this implies dk would end the game by killing a god

It's referring to the Donkey Kong game, of course, telling you in no uncertain terms that the game is fun. You wouldn't disagree with such an obvious statement now, would you?

The environmental work could be neat.

 

[Supreme Overlord]

Wait a second. Wait a second.

Is this Yasuyuki Honne's secret project?

 

[Forks]

I know I can't be the only person who's ever wanted a DK action game where you just run around and beat the shit out of people. I think Platinum Games could absolutely nail it down

I mean K. Rool hasn’t made any appearances in a Donkey Kong game…

I thought this was going to be a thread ruminating on how a Monolith Soft Donkey Kong game would play, not a troll "hey guess what Nintendo Of Amerlca has tweeted!".

NGL, I came into this thread hyped for something like that. I feel betrayed.

Magic is sauce, therefore it’s sus, that’s what sus implies.

 

[AngryAlchemist]

I'm confused, are people upset at this thread just cause it wasn't funny or because they thought it would be a rumor (which may mean legit)

(And don't say yes or both)

 

[Moltres006]

Whats next.... Platinum bringing back Ice Climbers?

 

[Rooster]

Guess they'll be taking notes from Candy Kong

For me it's the former. It was pretty obviously fake, which adds to how unfunny it is.

I kind of had a similar thought as well. Leaned into it with my comment about how the environmental work could be neat. I suspect MonolithSoft could do some good work with that. Perhaps make it moody and wondrous, both.

What the gameplay itself would be is something of an open question, of course.

 

[lemonfresh]

I'm probably the only one that found this actually funny lol, but I love old memes

Are they going to make DK look like Rex?

Let’s especially cool it on joke threads like this given Direct season is in full swing. -xghost777, Josh5890, VolcanicDynamo, Barely Able
