2014: "Another Donkey Kong Country? Should've been Metroid." 2018: "This is too pricey for a 4 year old game. I don't care how good it is." This game can't get a break, can it?
Beautiful graphics and tens of hours of playing time. Best Donkey Kong game ever! If you missed it on Wii U, buy it know. If you already played it on Wii U, buy and play it again! 9 out of 10 rating.
I hate it when people say 'buried' with the Wii U. It's a Wii U game, and the Wii U should get credit for it's own games. Plus the Switch always overprices games that aren't brand new anyway.
The price may be off-putting, but trust me, this game is worth all of it. It has over 70 distinct levels with a lot of replay value. You won’t regret buying it.
Donkey Kong Fan Sorry man, but tor name is literally Donkey Kong Fan. Listen, the game was originally sold for $50. Four years later sold for $60, just because its portable and has a new character.
sorry to be off topic but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb lost the password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Allan Francis I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
As much as I love that this game is getting a real chance to be played by more people that aren't die hard Nintendo fans, the fact that it's being charged at 60 bucks when the Wii U version was 50 is unacceptable. Captain Toad is still gonna be a 40 dollar game so what's with the penny pinching here?
SuperLuigi Land agreed! Hello! 👋🏼 If you have a minute, I would appreciate you checking out my TH-cam page. I recently uploaded some gameplay for the old DK game. Any constructive feedback would be awesome as I’m just starting out and trying to grow! Subscribing if you really like the content would be amazing! Thanks and have a great rest of your day! 😁
Personally you can just play DKC Returns on Wii/3ds (3ds version is better iirc) and Tropical Freeze. Both are great games, but Tropical Freeze is much better than Returns for me. The original trilogy? Hardly played them. As much as I wanted to like them, the "camera" is way too close to DK, which means you often can't see what's ahead of you. Enemies or obstacles can pop up and kill you faster than you can react if you go any faster than a casual saunter. Minecart levels in those games are a terrible chore of trial, error, and memorization because, once again, you probably won't be able to react to obstacles, and you definitely can't react to enemy minecarts that move toward you. If you're a masochist, then I'm sure you'll love it. In fact, if you had a wider range of view in those games, they'd probably be really great. Sadly, the original DKC trilogy is super duper overrated. Don't even get me started on DK 64.
If you played it on WiiU, there's no need for you to play it again. If, like most people, you never owned a WiiU, then it's practically a new game for you anyway :P The content within the game is fully worth the price
Hey, I never said it was a bad idea. I think it's great for accessibility. I actually have friends who didn't beat this game because of the difficulty (scrubs ellemayoh). I just don't think it's a particularly outstanding idea. It's just an easy mode.
Serpoo the gameplay shown in this has great moments, but the narrator and script don't sell the game very well. Just glad more people get to play this though.
Kaze Productions you'll love this. Tropical Freeze, as opposed to the "classic" DK games, actually gives you a wide enough range of view to see where you're going and react to obstacles! Yay!
My favorite DKC game, got it on the WiiU, would totally get it on Switch if I had one. So many good memories attached to this game. But the visuals and soundtrack take the cake. This game is Beautiful on so many levels. And those saying this game is too hard? Its not. Its challenging, it makes you learn new tricks. You cant just Mario your way through this.
Let me the guess. The defenders are gonna defend the price and minimal additions of this port by saying "It didn't sell that well on Wii U". Am I correct? Are we really still using the "It was on Wii U" excuse to defend Nintendo's decisions with ports? Or are we gonna use the portable excuse?
The reason why they're porting them is because of them not selling well. I won't be defending the price, but I will defend Nintendo's intentions for making Wii U ports on Switch. This game looks completely obvious that it is catering to Wii U skippers that have a Switch, unlike something like MK8D or the new Hyrule Warriors port where they add enough new stuff for them to appeal to both Wii U skippers and Wii U owners.

Chariot Goblin - And you'll be quick to defend Sony for rereleasing their short, interactive movie games from the PS3 (which a lot of people skipped over) to the PS4. Lmao
Poor DK, he has to carry his brother, cousin and grandpa. This ain't an adventure, more of a family trip I'm saying all these because I don't have a switch
What's up with the overpriced games on the Switch? This game and Kirby Star Allies are great, but neither of them are worth the 60 bucks. Especially Kirby.
Mirage6485 Tropical Freeze I feel needs to be $50, and Kirby needs to stay at $40 because it hasn't changed at all from the 3DS games. A game simply being on the Switch isn't enough to justify it being full priced. Next thing you know the Pokémon Switch title is going to be $60 as well.
KIRBY COULD BE MORE AND I'D STILL GET IT. KIRBY COULD BE SWITCH PRICE AND I'D STILL GET IT. KIRBY WAS THE REASON I BOUGHT A SWITCH, AND I STAND BY THAT REASON. KIRBY FOR LIFE, YOU HEAR ME? THE OTHER GAMES ARE JUST EXTRA!
No. No they do not. Ports like this are awesome and many people didn't get to play these games on the Wii-U. Stop complaining about ports, we're getting tons of new games as well. "I really can't stand all these good games being put on the awesome console that I can take anywhere" - said no one ever.
Anders Borgman you do realize ports don’t stop them from making switch games? its a smart move considering the wii u didn’t get a lot of sales. it makes them more money and gives newcomers on the switch a chance to play the wii u games.
Never owned a Wii U to play this but I own a switch. I already downloaded and preordered it! Can't wait to play it! I have heard nothing but positive things about this game.
DKC series by far is one of the best platformer series ever. One of few platformers where i dont get sick of replaying it
Same, I couldn't tell you how many times I've played through this game and Returns
Same, I couldn't tell you how many times I've played through this game and Returns

This game along with the wii HD its gonna give us much hope for a new Game soon.

This game can't get a break, can it?
HipptyHopBop It would get a break if it wasn't a ripoff
coolguys2001 Tropical Freeze is worth 60 bucks and then some. It's one of the best platformers ever made tbh
I dont think anyone one was complaining about donkey Kong not being metroid
Theyoungladd not sure where that came from
Theyoungladd There was, just look up Geek Critic video on this game
I LOVED THIS GAME ON THE WII U
whats a wii u?
yes, i am joking.
andrew southward Yeah man, it's precious ONLY on Wii U
I agree. We all had such a blast on the Wii U. Retro Studio really outdone themselves!
My favorite Wii U game
andrew southward the Wii U is underrated
I would buy this if I didn't play it on Wii U. If you haven't already played it, it is a MUST BUY!
Thanks I might get it then
@@pizza619 It is worth it.
Beautiful graphics and tens of hours of playing time. Best Donkey Kong game ever! If you missed it on Wii U, buy it know. If you already played it on Wii U, buy and play it again! 9 out of 10 rating.
That's one BIG GAME that didn't deserve to be buried with Wii U library. I hope we also get Xenoblade X.
Banjos that’s almost 100% gonna happen at this point. Monolithsoft have already said they want to bring it to the switch. It’s just a matter of when.
I really want tokyo mirage sessions on my switch. I love persona and have been dying to play it, but i didnt want to own a wii u.
I hate it when people say 'buried' with the Wii U. It's a Wii U game, and the Wii U should get credit for it's own games. Plus the Switch always overprices games that aren't brand new anyway.
6 years later and your wish has been granted.
These overview trailers are so cheesy it hurts
AustenArts ok
LIKE AN ANIME FAN ON PROM NIGHT
It’s mostly just the VA I’d say. I mean, some of the dialogue is bad, but most of it is just informational.
AustenArts right they should’ve had a more serious narrator, like the guy who narrates animal planet lol
AustenArts at the very least, this trailer sells the game for sure. Makes me wanna boot up the Wii U and get that last gold Time Trials medal.
The price may be off-putting, but trust me, this game is worth all of it.
It has over 70 distinct levels with a lot of replay value.
You won’t regret buying it.
Donkey Kong Fan great game for real but 60 $ is hard man
Jose Eduardo exactly, $50 might’ve been worth it back in 2014 when it first came out. But normally ports are supposed to be cheaper
It's not. Buy it second hand people. Don't let some braindead fanboy sway your opinion.
BMJT How am I being a brain dead fanboy? I provided reasons as to why this game is worth it. If anyone is being a brain dead fanboy, it’s you.
Donkey Kong Fan Sorry man, but tor name is literally Donkey Kong Fan. Listen, the game was originally sold for $50. Four years later sold for $60, just because its portable and has a new character.
I'm from the future as i played this years ago on this strange wii u device.
Wii... U... that was that weird tablet controller for the Wii, right?
Glinty 😂 I know where you got that from
you mean past
Time travel is confusing. :v

Cant wait to buy this one.

Matthew Smart but... The new Funky mode... It's totally worth it
-I mean, you can always go to those stores where they sell the game at a lower price-
I haven't played this game before so I'm fine with the price. No one's gonna make you buy it
Matthew Smart just buy secondhand on eBay for ~45
Dktf is 20$ on the wii u rn
It's been 3 years since I've played this game, I can't wait play DK tropical freeze again.

I really hope we will get a new DKC Game for Donkey Kong's 40th anniversary!
AND WE DIDN'T!
@@humamoyous Yep..... Groose was much more important

Nintendo is just ignoring the fact that DK is one of the best game series
nothing at all
We can hope for an announcement on dkc's 30th anniversary
*SMASH* trough obstacles!
Someone is too excited for Smash Bros hahaha
I laughed when he said SMASH like that and almost made a comment about it
HAHAHAHA
I think he is excited for something else ;)
never played a donkey kong game before, looks pretty good
omg you haven't lived! since it doesn't come out till may 4th, use that time to play the past ones, they're amazing (especially DKC2) :)
ok thank you
Dkc2
Meme Meat - You never played DKC 1-3 on the SNES nor DK 64 on the N64?? Where have you been!
Personally you can just play DKC Returns on Wii/3ds (3ds version is better iirc) and Tropical Freeze. Both are great games, but Tropical Freeze is much better than Returns for me.

Don't even get me started on DK 64.
Anyone else going bananas for this awesome port?
Awesome! I love Donkey Kong
Somehow the crispiness of the title of these Donkey Kong games always make me wanna eat a banana...
Rewatching this, This was really fun to 200%. Gives me nostalgia.
Sit down. Let us talk about that price tag.
Haich _ I know 60 bucks for a game that's been out for awhile....
Should be free, right?
It’s worth it. This game has a lot of content put into it.
If you played it on WiiU, there's no need for you to play it again. If, like most people, you never owned a WiiU, then it's practically a new game for you anyway :P The content within the game is fully worth the price
But you'd also have to pay for a WiiU
Asked for this game on my birthday!! Fingers crossed 🤞
Funky Mode looks Awesome!
Spino's Gaming Channel I hope you're joking. It's just an easy mode.
Jimmy John Joe Hey buddy, there's this cool new thing you should try! It's called letting people enjoy things.
Jimmy John Joe completely agree with you. It's a baby mode for removing the challenge of the game
Hey, I never said it was a bad idea. I think it's great for accessibility. I actually have friends who didn't beat this game because of the difficulty (scrubs ellemayoh). I just don't think it's a particularly outstanding idea. It's just an easy mode.
Hey dude, How's it hanging

$60 for a game that came out 4 years ago. Great game and I love DKC and I beat it in 2 weeks when I got it on Wii U. But charging $60 is not cool.
DueMagician921 Yeah but those games are still selling strong and are in much higher demand than this game but this game looks great though.
DueMagician921 Skyrim got remastered, and is not $60 anymore, neither is GTA5
We need Donkey kong 64 back. Best game ever growing up.

God I love donkey Kong country: Tropical freeze for the Nintendo switch.
I have watched this trailer countless times. I absolutely love this game.
I don't even own this game!
Worth more than $60 imo
y'all clowns better buy the best platformer made in over 20 years if you haven't played it already
'll wait till prices go down then pick one up!
Eduardo Barbosa me
Kaiba is very passionate about his Donkeys and Kongs
I still think that none of these Tropical Freeze commercials (both on Switch and Wii U) do the actual game justice.
Serpoo the gameplay shown in this has great moments, but the narrator and script don't sell the game very well. Just glad more people get to play this though.
Seriously this game is so underrated. If you haven't played this game you need to!
Need this game right now
Still my favourite game on Nintendo Switch (May 2019)
If only it weren't 60 dollars, i bet you guys would sell way more
It sold over 2mil units
I got this game for free along with the switch
They could sell *twice* as many if they cut the price in half! lol
Keep them games coming Nintendo, you are the best.
Genjuro77 the switch is one of my favorite consoles! Even if they bring back a lot of old games back.
Haven’t played a dk side scroller since dkc3, looking forward to this 😎

doeS IT INCLUDE THE NEW *FUNKY MODE??*

What's up with the overpriced games on the Switch? This game and Kirby Star Allies are great, but neither of them are worth the 60 bucks. Especially Kirby.
Yeah Kirby's more like a 30 or 40 dollar game like the 3ds ones. Tropical Freeze I wouldn't know where to price it at
Mirage6485 Tropical Freeze I feel needs to be $50, and Kirby needs to stay at $40 because it hasn't changed at all from the 3DS games. A game simply being on the Switch isn't enough to justify it being full priced. Next thing you know the Pokémon Switch title is going to be $60 as well.

Why? All the added content to make them a little more fresh is awesome! Plus you can play them on the go!
Funky Kong for............Assist Trophy Smash!
Waheed Abdullah hey, it’s something
Not worth 60
RetroGamingStuff It's WORTH $60, but that doesn't mean it should be $60. Because it definitely shouldn't.
It IS worth 60. Its stupid that they priced it 60, but content and entertainment wise, its worth every penny. Should have been 50 at most.
"May the 4th" be with you, young Kong.

I’m looking forward to this game next week
Can’t wait for this game again!
GameCubeGuy01 me too! I am currently playing the DK game for the Wii as that one was my favorite but will start recording this one when it’s out!
I don't have a Wii U and DKC Returns was freaking amazing so I'm really looking forward to this one.
It’s a double Yoshi exploshi!!
Never owned a Wii U to play this but I own a switch. I already downloaded and preordered it! Can't wait to play it! I have heard nothing but positive things about this game.
Already bought this game for my Switch... Awesome game!
This is the best platformer I ever played
We need Kong, the world needs him
So, they're finally here!
Performing for you!
Playtonic Games and Nintendo should pair up to make a new 3D Donkey Kong game like DK64. It would be nice to see Lanky, Tiny, and Chunky Kong again!
I don't trust Playtonic Games after Yooka-Laylee
The Nintendo Boy Why?
Because Yooka-Laylee was pretty mediocre.
The Nintendo Boy In my opinion it was pretty good when I played it. And it was Playtonic's first game.
Joonas Jussila
That's fine, we all have opinions. Technically, it wasn't their first game since the team is mostly comprised of ex-Rare employees
Excited to pick this game up.
this follows almost the same procedure as almost any overview trailer that I could almost predict what they were gonna say next
my bf loves these games! i'm so glad its coming to switch finally! gives us all the more reason to play together! co-op forever!
You guys are almost on 4 million subs!
Fun fact: The narrator for this trailer also voiced Mr. Hippo in FNAF: Ultimate Custom Night.
I like how every game funky Kong has been in he's always broken
Now it's time to get funky!
I hope the next one let's you play as Candy Kong
This feels like a trailer from the 90s it's great
