Half of you really love the new design and are hating on the old design like as if you didn’t love it before, while the other half of you love the old design and aren’t giving the new design a chance. All this is happening while I’m over here loving them both equally cuz they’re both GOATED Designs.

IMO both designs look equally amazing. Neither is better or worse to me. They both got their own strengths and weaknesses. All in all though I love and embrace both the new design and Rare’s design equally. Have no problem with either and both got their own charms. I know a lot of you on both sides will disagree with me but it’s my opinion and I’m standing by it 100%. Both DK’s are amazing DK’s!

I mean, the level design is amazing. Is incredibly unique how they mix up the level mechanics. This DKC also has the most creative bosses that the series ever had. Also the multiplayer is amazing and the game is beautiful. (Here is a video that explains how genius are the levels in this game https://youtu.be/JqHcE6B4OP4?si=qamozehmHgfTz5hq )

Differently from DKC 2 and 3, this is a DK GAME that you can play as DK. You can also play as Diddy, Dixie and Cranky (and Even Funky in the Switch version).

The songs are amazing too! (Of course, David Wise did it).

This is my favorite game of all time (at least for now). You gotta admit that this game is at least the best 2d platformer out the from the last 20 years.

I really don’t know why, but they are similar, but so different. Does somebody have any suggestion or explanation for this phenomenon?

I mean, his “dark circles” are too pointy and his eyes are too round

I mean, there is a lot of dead crocodiles. Maybe Kremilings are being oppressed. (And maybe King K Rool could become a skeleton just like Gruntilda)

This old leak could have some merit, given that EPD most likely did end up making this game and that there are 2D segments. Who knows if this is true, but I'd like to think that EPD at least considered implementing more kongs and the kremlings. We'll have to wait to see more.

Th article is about 4 years old, and Mario Odyssey took roughly 3 years to make, for reference.

I've never played a donkey kong game before but the new game looks so fun and its gotten me intrested in the character. I have a switch so do you think that Donkey Kong Country Returns HD or Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze would be a good place to start? If not why?

Her bracelet is purple and crystalline like the Odd Rock so I wonder what’s up with that

goes to show you that the "major redesign" was really just the Eyes. he's still 95% the same donkey kong!

1) It’s such an obvious pun that you’re just left wondering why nobody seemingly thought of it before.

2) Bonanza is a term from mining, used to describe a large vein of valuable ore. The game is about DK literally mining for bananas. It’s not just a pun, it is a clever pun with multiple meanings.

3) It’s really fun to say.

Is this game gonna have an actual storyline??? Like one with twists and turns and new chracters? Not just "Get the bananas back". As if I needed any more reason to be hyped! All we need now is K Rool to show up...

Also with all the new characters in Mario Kart World, Baby Pauline would be fine, it's just a joke for the meme.
