First Screens of Donkey Kong Country Returns from Nintendo's E3

GFB: "Donkey Kong Country is probably one of the most remembered titles from the Super Nintendo system and later on the Nintendo 64 (requiring the RAM cart, remember those?). Thanks to the same team that revived the Metroid franchise on the Gamecube, we now have Donkey Kong Country back. Check out the first screens of Retro Studios' Donkey Kong Country Returns."

yeah, I wasnt believing the rumours before hand, but I was seriously shocked when I heard the music, looks amazing, and this year too!!

Reibooi5085d ago

They did exactly what they should have with it and that is bring it back to it's roots. The game looked incredible and it's still the same old Donkey Kong Country we love. I can't wait to play it.

Oh my god, this brings back memories. Nintendo just had an amazing showing, I can't believe it. Game after game, after game. This conference was just pure greatness.

Really smart move to keep the gameplay mostly the same as the originals. All of the nintendo fans of the 90s are coming out of the shadows right now.

How Many More Victims, Like Garry's Mod, Will Nintendo's Hurtful Crusade Create?

Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."

The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.

i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.

nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.

people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly

mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.

zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.

nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.

its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.

but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.
