Donkey Kong Country Returns HD for Switch: A Downgrade Ripoff?

[@xenos_n.]

I think a remaster of the original Donkey Kong Country with extra content would be great.

i mean, the closest we have are the Game Boy Color and Advance versions but would be awesome for the Switch as well.

A remake and with hd and making the bonus levels like DKC2 and DKC3 and making the bosses more challenging Nintendo just want to give us what they want to give us not what we really want a Donkey Kong Country 1 remake with some changes an extra content that would have been fantastic charging 60 bucks people would have bought it like myself

Its an HD port of the 3DS version, not the Wii one. Period. A person who's actively playing Nintendo games would've noticed this right away. And this is also the reason they added the extra world from the portable version, because it is the same game but upscaled, so there's no reason to keep comparing it to the wii version, since it's based on a different version altogether.

[@Trocmar]

Dude, this makes absolutely no sense at all. There's a graphically superior version available for them to work with and they chose the dowgraded one? Having 8 or 9 extra levels is not an excuse.

[@dustinkinard7431]

[@JGKingCrusher]

@@Refreshment01 It's more the principle of the situation. Nintendo is marking up a game they sold for cheaper on a previous console. I find that just a tad frustrating and it should serve as a reminder to all gamers that loyalty to a brand will not be rewarded. All they care about is your money, and nothing else. That's why I have multiple systems and my pc, so I just wait for sales on titles I want.

[@graalcloud]

I think the main issue with this game is simply that Tropical Freeze is 100 times better

[@wendigo2k]

Not me though :P I think they f*** up the controls in that one... I mean what happened to "Press Y for running" and "then roll your thumb to B to jump"? Also why do I have to press an extra button to grab vines? Why change a formula every Mario game and all the old great DKC games did right? Imagine playing Metroid and having to press R to grab onto a platform... wtf... Nintendo even f**** that up YrunBjump in BotW... On launch I couldnt even play it because the Switch didnt have that update where you can change the controls on the pro controller...

[@Curlyheart]

That's subjective.

[@stevesteve0521]

I don’t like returns or tropical freeze honestly, sure the games look good and have great music but the physics in both games aren’t good, donkey Kong is basically useless without an assist barrel and his timing on jump is terrible.

[@AlastorShadow0]

​@@stevesteve0521I liked Donkey Kong Country Returns was it really that bad? Guess I didn't notice.

[@balthazarbulau4095]

The price has nothing to do with value. It's all about what Nintendo knows people are willing to pay for a Nintendo sticker on a box. Don't forget that it's the people who accepted these prices. If they weren't, Nintendo would have dropped them. But Nintendo knows that people just love throwing their money in their direction for anything with a Nintendo logo. Why not reselling them reheated soup for full price? I would have done the same.

[@jakeviolet2195]

A remaster of a 14 year old game on modern hardware should be so many miles ahead of the original in terms of performance and graphics that comparisons shouldn't even be necessary. It should look and perform either exactly the same, or better, in every category.

[@frankiebenneito7706]

He acknowledged they were nitpicks in the video. That's not really the point. If Nintendo is "remastering" a game for a higher price than ever before, it should be the definitive version across the board. There's no reason that any element of this game should look worse than a 14 year old Wii game (aside from laziness).

I could not disagree more. Looking at this comparison video, the Switch version looks way brighter and more colorful, more pleasing to the eyes. Some visuals have been changed, but I don't think they look worse, just a bit different. I think some people are trying to find a reason to hate the game, because they don't like the price.

[@gars129]

For the argument that low res 480i on CRT disguised graphical weaknesses, well shouldn't the developers have an old tv lying around so they can use to study how the game looked on the intended displays? Same as how dithering is either kept or removed entirely when they can actually do a new transparency, at least on stuff that isn't compilations, virtual console or NSO were it's expected that they just dump the roms and isos. Even on 6th gen games, there are a lot of polygons that only are apparent with upscaling to hd.

[@DankMemeCenterX]

Reminder remasters aren't primarily targeted to those that already played it. Not saying you can't nitpick away but to make others who haven't feel bad about a potential purchase is just werid imo. Don't like the price move on with your day.

[@anthonythompson7900]

This is some very nitpicky stuff, your talking about graphics in the background that are gonna be barely noticeable by the average consumer I don’t suspect people who already played the game would buy it, but there are alot of Nintendo fans who didn’t buy the 3DS version or the Wii version & this is who they are trying to sell it to

[@PaperBanjo64]

Or those who don't have Wii anymore and want it in HD

[@tranger79]

It is amazing how this game is half-assed at $60 but yet they gave us Metroid Prime remastered for $40 how do you explain that

[@Refreshment01]

And sales for Prime Remaster would have been about the same if it was 60, as sales were downright disappointing for what 40 gave the players, in terms of the effort put into that remaster. Then RGT complains & dont understand the pricing for these remasters.

This price strategy, where 95% of games are at 60$, is not what we had in the Reggie era

[@Refreshment01]

Well the new play control series sold for 30 us BUT those were ports enhanced with motion controls of games that had player choice versions for 20. Those versions coexisted at some poi t & the Wii was fully backwards compatible with GC. So charging 10 more wouldnt be very nice coming from Reggie according to your point of view. i just didnt care but wanted to point that out for perspective.

[@chriswhitehead4749]

I agree with you on most things .. but on this one all I would say is just wait for it to go down in price . If you played it on Wii , it probably isn't worth it anyway

[@HarleyColero]

Okay it looks way better on switch but also who gives a flying turd what matters is it plays well and if you are not happy with the price just dont get it

[@HidekiNishi7]

I guess it does make sense they're using the 3DS port as the basis for this remaster, given I imagine it's much easier to try to remaster and upscale that version of the game instead of trying to implement the 3DS-exclusive levels into the Wii version. Also the fact that this remaster's outsourced to a different developer instead of being handled by Retro Studios (likely because they're currently busy with Metroid Prime 4: Beyond), it's no wonder they're opting on using the 3DS port that has the most content instead of the Wii version that has much better visuals. Personally, don't have any reason of getting this title, since I already own the game on the Wii. I'd rather just get DKC: Tropical Freeze instead, since I did not play that game yet.

[@Refreshment01]

You are being rational & mature, that doesnt generate engagement.

The hypocrisy in people these days 😎 just a few months ago Paper Mario and The Thousand Year Door received praise for the graphical update but at the same time criticism for a reduced frame rate yet still played incredible. Why are people not mentioning the fact that the game will play smoother than the 3DS version and looks way sharper than on previous systems. Plus you can play it both handheld and on TV. People are just finding stupid reasons to hate on this game because Nintendo announced the price of $60 but those same folks will have to swallow their words of hate when this game becomes successful and rubs it on their faces just like Luigi's Mansion 2 HD did months ago selling over a million copies and still selling months later and even encouraging gamers to purchase Luigi's Mansion 3 because after updating their sales numbers, Nintendo revealed how Luigi's Mansion 2 HD helped boost Luigi's Mansion 3's sales. People can complain and nitpick all they want but Nintendo is a business and it shows, hence how we've been getting Donkey Kong Land 1 and 2 on NSO recently. To get people hyped up, kids love these games that's why this game will succeed regardless of the haters 🤣 because when a new generation tries out this game, Nintendo won, that new 7 year old boy or girl playing their new Donkey Kong game creates a domino affect and more exposure means more and more interest and demand which leads to more revenue. Why people don't see this is beyond me but some folks enjoy staying blind on purpose 🙃

So you can't even purchase the classic titles you actually want and bypass all the other junk. Honestly, this is the first Nintendo console that doesn't feel 'Nintendo'.

50 US 2010 dollars adjusted to inflation todau is above 70 us dollars. Its a freaking luxury item you have played 2 versions of. So get over it.

I've been hoping this game got switch release since tropical freeze came out,

[@RawPower867]

It's a lazy, over-priced remaster but, at the same time, I really want to have this game on Switch. I'm torn.

Just buy it, u cry baby

@@metrowater2819Shut up dude.

[@Sellout1738]

The number of people defending this game just because it's Nintendo is insane.

[@JB-wv8pb]

The game is not even out yet man. You should make the comparison once the game is out. Pretty common sense

[@MegaNerdX]

Yeah, like PkMn Scarlet & Violet. I’m sure the horrendous frame rate was only in the trailers

[@AsherTheModder]

@@MegaNerdX its sold 24M so your opinion donst matter as far as GF is concerned.

[@666_N_94]

I just want DK64 remastered or at least ported to NSO

[@painuchiha2694]

I’m excited to play this game for the first time

As much as i love Nintendo i must say that Nintendo is starting-to piss me off 😕

[@jahjoeka]
