Maybe King K. Rool will be brought back (he is the true main villain), I mean they wouldn't (normally) through Bowser out like that, why do it to DK's villain?
Tikimen aside, I am stoked for this game and will definitely be getting a copy. |
There is not a thing I've seen about this that makes me skeptical. It looks exactly like what I've always wanted and more. The fact that Diddy rides on DK's back cool and they can perform special team moves it appears.

Well, hey! DKC again! Who'da thunk it? And to think that just a few weeks back, we were all fretting about how they'd never revisit this series again... actually, the fretting was mostly on my part. But, still. What a gift from Video Game Heaven. As soon as I heard about this, it became my single most anticipated game since Twilight Princess. And it's coming out this year! I do have some mild reservations, though...
First, the Kremlings. I don't see them. I guess K. Rool's tribal outfit in the baseball game might be foreshadowing, but part of me thinks that's a rather weak omen. There seem to be either evil apes or mole-men in the mine cart stages. It'll be odd to see anything other than Kremling mooks riding on there. Secondly, I didn't see any animal buddies. I'd have expected Rambi to be among the first things they churn out, were this a true return to the series. As it is, it looks like a hybrid between the first DKC and DKJB. Not a bad thing in and of itself, but I'm still a little wary. In any case, I can forget about seeing Rattly again (or as I like to call him, Quadruple Amputee Yoshi). Then there are the Tikimen. Well, they're OK, I guess. That little tribal chief guy riding on that airship looks pretty funny, it'll be fun to bash his face in at the end of the stage (game?). My main complaint about them is that, up until now, there had been no magic in the DKC world... Inca Dinca Doo is not pleased. On the upside, Donkey and Diddy fight the Reek from Attack of the Clones! Honestly, I never thought I'd see the day. And they have that "Canadian barrel roll" attack Dixie and Kiddy did in DKC3. As far as throwbacks go, that's a pretty epic one. Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait! |
DKC4?
OH GOD I JUST CAME |
I see a Jiggy on the right side of the screen when the camera zooms in on DK Isle. ;)
|
I've anticipated this ever since... well... last night.
It looks absolutely foolproof, perfected, rounded, and hell, if it's been in development since 06, it will have some damn good quality to it. And HOLY ****NUGGETS THAT IS A JIGGY. |

Obv. not a Jiggy.
It's one of the K-O-N-G letters in puzzle format. |
Great, but who will compose the soundtrack?

The fact that it hadn't even crossed my mind must mean that I have low expectations for it. I haven't ever heard video game music as good as Rare's stuff, but since I've never played the Metroid Prime trilogy, I don't know how well Retro has typically done. I guess we can expect DKJB level and style, but I'm really hoping for more. |
According to Iwata Asks, they want to make the music as much like the original games' music as possible.

Cool but why is this is New Rareware? New Rareware is now for Kinect Sports discussions.
Edit: Never mind. Until today I never even knew a "Donkey Kong" sub-forum existed. |
Game looks awesome, Day 1 for me. Still though, the lack of animal buddies (Rambi, Enguarde, Squawks), and classic enemies like Zingers, Gnawtys, and Kremlins is a little disheartening. I have faith though that regardless, Retro will deliver a great Donkey Kong game.

Gameplay vid! It looks soooo good!
And I don't know if that music is from the game or not, but if it is HOT DAMN! This game needs to come out yesterday! Oh, in the "Iwata Asks" DKC interview it was mentioned that they want to keep the music as close to the original SNES games as they possibly can. :D |
|
It may not have seemed like it in the past few years, but Nintendo really know how to cater to everyone, even the hardcore.
|
Okay, Kremlings/K. Rool have been confirmed to be out:

OK, insane theory time: you know how the tikis cursed the animals of DK Island and made them evil? Well, I theorize that the Reek from the trailer (the large orange animal with a horn on its face, for the non Star Wars-initiated) is actually cursed!Rambi, and once Donkey and Diddy pwn him, he'll go back to his usual, friendly self.
Agree? ;) |
Coo be.
Coo be not. |
I sure hope so, though! I need to see more DKC characters in DKCR to reach the climax of my DKCGasm.
|
Finally, my Wii can be used for games that I like :D

In all seriousness, it's unlikely, but we'll just have to wait and see. |

Miyamoto didn't like much about Rare's take on the series.

WHAT.
What IS DKC without Kremlings? Later what, hmmm. New Super Mario without Koopas? |

Retro said no Crocodiles, not no Kremlings. What is a DKC without Kremlings? Even Retro know this.
|
Why would they say "there will be no crocodiles" if the Kremlings will make a comeback? The only enemies resembling crocodiles as far as I can remember are the Kremlings. It's obvious that they are referring to the Kremlings.
