[@BirdieSenpai]

In DKC, Cranky was nostalgic for the 13-year-old arcade DK. Cranky became nostalgic for DKCR by the same measure in 2023. This is the equivalent of re-releasing DKC with motion controls and 3D models on Wii in 2007. Yes, it's better than nothing, but the last new Donkey Kong game was over a decade ago now. We're less than three years from Cranky being nostalgic for Tropical Freeze.

Another resale of old games from Nintendo... I love the Donkey Kong Country series, but this is getting out of hand. If you’re a fan of the series, I highly recommend checking out the upcoming Nikoderiko. It looks like Crash Bandicoot with gameplay elements from DKCR and DKC2! Hope they don't mess it up.

A nintendo poderia fazer remasterização em HD do DK 1, DK2 e DK3 seria perfeito!

[@AllBladesCut]

Dkc returns, returns, and it returns a again, but what not returns is a new addition to the series.

Returns > Tropical Freeze Always

[@dragonmage372]

I will admit, the levels of Tropical Freeze can be hecking fun. And it's hard to beat Trunk Twister (the theme). But other than that, heartily agree

[@solo_leo4454]

Freeze is objectively the better game. But I agree. Something about returns is magical, the nostalgia for me, the levels and scenery, the story enemies etc, it’s fascinating

[@dragonmage372]

@@solo_leo4454 I'd argue that for bossfights, DKCR easily takes the cake. Not so much because its bossfights were brilliantly designed (though they were that), but because Freeze's were underwhelmingly poor in comparison. I can still recall DKCR's boss themes almost perfectly, whereas Freeze's have been lost to time.

[@Sleepy_head64]

Main reason I like returns more is cause the adventure is a lot longer, besides that the quality of both games are both pretty equal to me.

Cool another port

Going to be fun to replay this :)

Me playing the game for the third time after playing it on the 3DS and Wii:

[@fionavalkyrie]

They sure weren't lying about that "returns" part...

[@Microwav64]

The only "good" thing about this rerelease is hopefully an actually (legally) comfortable way to play without motion sickness or hand cramps. But otherwise, i would get it either way

[@platinum-or3y]

i actually really wanted this

Nostalgia

[@TheLegoMaster261]

Donkey Kong is my favorite fictional character so I’m very excited for this!! Just please make sure you also make a new DK game soon as well!

[@VampVampChamp]

January of TWENTY TWENTY FIVE?!?!?! The game has already been made and remade and now remade again what is taking half a year for this to come out?

[@aaliyahrosado7365]

They did made the Donkey Kong Country game for Nintendo 3DS last time.

[@supermario1fan]

Even though this has been remade several times now, it's still a classic I'm definitely gonna get. Love it.
