The heist is what Nintendo doing with these remasters to our wallets. 70€ for this???

[@StarWyvernHPB]

It is annoying at how expensive switch games are. I'll probably get it 2nd hand if I can a few years later. Only titles I consider getting on release are massive ones I've been waiting years for, or ones with really good preorder bonuses.

I preordered a physical from play-asia the last time they had a three for $100 game sale. So I only paid $33.33 usd for my copy 🤓

Oh, banana. Hope this game has *something* exclusive to warrant the price increase versus the Wii original...but it probably won't.

[@KayFiOS]

It includes quality of life improvements (most notably in easy mode and button controls) and extra levels from the 3DS version, but, like the Wii version, this one's running at 60 FPS, rather than the 30 FPS the 3DS version was locked at. I kind of hope that this will still offer motion controls for the three people out there that want to use them.

[@StephenHopkinsVaults]

Has 3ds version extra levels …

[@NintendoUpDotCom]

@StephenHopkinsVaults that isnt exclusive... Already played the 3DS game.

[@krealyesitisbeta5642]

My big problem is that they aren’t even adding anything

[@shigerumiyamoto9612]

To be fair, the game together will all the entra content from 3ds, is already a pretty packed experience. Shouldnt be full price though..

[@fazentployee77]

They're adding 3DS levels, quality of life improvements, ect. It's a remaster and not a new game. Price is a big turn off though. And there might be more in it that they didn't reveal (which I highly doubt)

I love this game don’t get me wrong. But come on. Donkey Kong Country Returns Returns Returns? We need a new DK game

[@Fitz_Sports]

Can’t wait for the remaster of this game on Switch. Thanks Nintendo! :)

[@robertkenny1201]

Perhaps Kid Icarus Uprising and Metroid Samus Returns should both get HD ports someday.

[@enriquepinero707]

Did they make some visual improvements since the last time this was shown? Seems like maybe they did, but not to the point where it is that high.

[@AychSkwaird]

Nintendo after a long hard year of moving 3 roms to a switch cartridge

[@OmniversalOrca]

Talking as if they've released only remasters when we have originals like Echoes of Wisdom, Mario and Luigi Brothership, Mario Party Jamboree, Emio The Smiling Man, Princess Peach Showtime, or remakes like Another Code or The Thousand Year Door.

[@shawntorres6262]

Nintendo should have done a Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury/ Sonic X Shadow Generations type deal. That would warrant the $60 price tag.

[@evermillcreek]

Looks incredible, I'm excited for the new ppl that have yet to experience the excellence. Modern DK is top tier 2D platforming!

I doubt this game would sell for $70. This doesn't deserve that price tag, but still, this is a game that I always was wanting to play and try out!

[@OmniversalOrca]

Because other companies are selling their new games at $70, and even though Tears of the Kingdom is their only game at that price, they assume Nintendo does the same. Still a high price. It should've been $50 tops, considering Nintendo has games at $50. Ideally, $40.

[@ryukishi8492]

Why is the area around DK's eyes the same color as his fur? It was always darker because it's more skin-like (you know, like a gorilla's face)  You can call it a minor thing but it's worrying when Nintendo can't get their oldest mascot right... Pretty sure the original Wii game got it right (at least the in-game model). Tropical Freeze for sure did. Even the movie did

[@ElectriKong-]

Might be something to do with it being a lazy port of the 3DS version, which had inferior graphics because of hardware limitations.

[@SailBros_204]

​@@ElectriKong- From what I've heard, this is an improved HD remaster from the Wii game. I don't know if that is true about this, though.

[@ElectriKong-]

@@SailBros_204 Pretty sure it's a remaster of the 3DS version, considering it has all the extra features of the 3DS version, as well as areas shown in the reveal trailer where it is graphically worse than the Wii in a way that would make more sense if it was the 3DS version that was ported rather than the Wii version.

I was a huge Nintendo fan, still love their older consoles but the Switch has been such a disappointment. It sold like hot cakes but they're creatively bankrupt now.

[@Hallootjest3d]

I disagree, mario wonder?

[@thekiss2083]

Wonder was good but not nearly as inventive as it promised to be. A Mario game on the Switch where you occasionally have to navigate the same level while playing as enemies. Definitely didn't play that back in 2017!

[@OmniversalOrca]

So you decide to ignore so many levels and even the ones that are playing like enemies offer experiences you didn't have in Odyssey. You're literally wrong.

[@OmniversalOrca]

What the heck? Even 2024 being arguably their worst year and they offered us Echoes of Wisdom, Jamboree, Emio, the new Mario and Luigi. Creatively bankrupt? Give me a break.

[@primateboogaloo]
