i think out of anything else i would like a donkey kong game made by nintendo (nintendo epd specifically, not a subsidiary)
they haven't really made one that, like, (re)defines the franchise unlike something like super mario 3d world did for the mario series
jungle beat is a nice tease but it's just that, i'm waiting for the actual meat and potatoes
so, assuming nintendo is indeed making the next big donkey kong game:
- they should make some brand new guys
- I want a new Kong. And I mean a new Kong in the vein of Dixie Kong, Wrinkly Kong, Tiny Kong and et all; a new supporting or protagonistic monkey character.
- I also want new animal buddies. I don't believe Jungle Beat was them at the top of their game when they made things like Flurl, I'm confident they can make some actually really interesting designs for animal buddies.[/li]
- not sure about the enemies, think I'm waiting for a surprise there
- k rool should probably return. i'm actually a bit interested in seeing how they portray him, since they haven't ever touched him
- part of me wishes they would give the donkey kong video game series an actual story narrative or something of the like. mainly coming off of splatoon which does this just for worldbuilding, it's really interesting to see just about any minor detail in splatoon and for it to change as though there's an actual tangible world with an actual tangible timeline and i'm greedy in wanting that for donkey kong too. i don't expect this to come as this is just not how nintendo usually rolls, for better or worse, stuff like the mario movie makes me think they'll do the same stuff they do with mario which is Fine
- idk if i want dialogue for this game or not. i mean it most likely won't have much dialogue, like returns and tropical freeze, but given the option i'm not sure if i want the game to be written like dkc3
