Literally nothing about this game resembles Donkey Kong. So boring and trite. It's over. Donkey Kong is for kids now. This is an insult to the Donkey Kong Country fanbase. It even has Zelda hearts now. BOTW ruined this fucking company. Fuck you.

it'll sell at least 5 million copies

Nintendo died with Iwata

>literally nothing about this game resembles Donkey Kong
>*image of Donkey Kong right in the middle of the screen*
I can already tell that this game is going to be considered the best DK game in the series, mogging DKC from its throne.

>>712756968
this

>>712756737 (OP)
Neither did DK64 and you fags loved it

>>712756835
sales and reviews mean nothing when it comes to nintendo, the game can be utter dogshit (which most nintendo games are nowadays) and tendies will still buy it because muh nostalgia

so whos doing the music?

>>712756737 (OP)
>finally get a new 3D DK game
>DK is redesigned and the aesthetics look nothing like the rareware or even retro games
monkey (heh) paw moment

>>712756968
>Nintendo died with Yamauchi
Fixed

>>712757623
Iwata created soulfull hardware experiences

>>712757786
He created the 3DS, Wii U and Switch. Terrible consoles.

>>712757623
You mean Fusajiro, right?

>>712756737 (OP)
Wokey kong

>>712758140
Woke=I don't like it

>>712757371
New DK looks better

>>712756737 (OP)
kremling status?

>>712758241
You didn't think this last year.

describe what these items are/do in a way that makes sense in the donkey kong universe

>>712758450
>in the donkey kong universe
really?

I saw the game showcase of it and its an interesting mechanic to break everything but it felt very aimless. I'm quite worried for it

>/v/ when a video game conveys the character's durability through heart icons

>>712758450
balloons are lives in dkc.

>>712756737 (OP)

I don't mind the DK character redesign, and the idea of a chaotic smash-n-grab platformer sounds kind of appealing to me.

But it just needs more jungle!

Like, I realize DK went to snowy regions, nuclear plants, spooky carnivals, libraries, marshes, treehouses, etc. in the old games. But all the promo footage looks like Mario Odyssey levels and fucking ToTK sky islands.

>>712758680
>Mr. Pepe, I don't feel so good

This game looks like it was made for literal toddlers, all you do is mashing buttons to destroy the environment, it doesn't look challenging in the least and probably gets old quick

New video shows that DK can chunk jump

>Donkey Kong is for kids now
Is this really what we're doing? This is the best you can come up with?

>>712759165
Always has been.

the real issue is that its bara bait. this isnt "donkey kong for kids" this is donkey kong for porn.

>>712757089
>DK64
>loved
ahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhahaahahah

>>712759441
I hate you people so much you cannot even begin to fathom one iota of the hate I have for you.

>>712759545
Kys zoomer. It got rave reviews and sold 5 million copies.

>>712756737 (OP)
Kill yourself disgusting zoomer faggot. it's literally the first donkey kong game (3d) in over a quarter of a century. you weren't alive in 1999 disgusting zoomer

>>712756737 (OP)
You were never a fan of Donkey Kong you retarded snoys. Real DK fans have been waiting decades for a brand new 3D game.

>>712756737 (OP)
Are you mentally prepared for the reveal of Mini-Pauline?

>>712759668
why? im not interested in it, i just see where this is going.

>>712756737 (OP)
>Literally nothing about this game resembles Donkey Kong.
>Has been using hearts since DKC Returns over a decade ago
I wonder if they were watermelons if you would even complain about something this pointless.

>>712756737 (OP)
>It even has Zelda hearts now.
>now
Here's your (You)

Literally nothing about this game resembles Donkey Kong. So boring and trite. It's over. Donkey Kong is for kids now. This is an insult to the Donkey Kong fanbase. It even has Mario sidescrolling now. Super Mario Bros. ruined this fucking company. Fuck you.

>The more seethe is causes on /v/ the better the game is
I wasn't planning to but I'll get it day one now.

>>712760701
Wait until the "Mini-Pauline" platforming segments are shown off.

>>712760513
I wish they made a game that looks like that cover

>>712759703
Why did Tooie sell so little? Was it because of the PS2 launch?

>>712761159
Sequels always sell worse.

>>712756737 (OP)
Being headed by a soulless accountant and EA exec is what's ruining them. They have no clue how to do anything, but chase money. Nutendo doesn't know how to design games anymore.

>>712756737 (OP)
so is nintendo gonna use the same UI from botw for all their games now?

>>712761390
When Miyamoto dies, then /v/e can panic.
For now, we are fine.

>>712756835
Thatd be lousy as fuck since its basically the Switch 2 flagship title.

>>712756990
It's just like how BotW has nothing to do with Zelda games; it's just wearing its skin.

Wake up guys, we need to get this thread to 300+ replies again.

Gone are the iconic environments of DKC. I can immediately tell this is soulless.
Did they let some foid who doesn't play games and has no experience act as the art director? Nutendo loves doing this for the last decade. Slopmaker company.

>>712764817
ok here you go
*ahem*
WHAT DA HECK OP WHAT DO YOU MEAN DK IS FOR KIDS >NOW THIS FRANCHISE WAS ALWAYS FOR LE KIDSSSSSS SILLY BILLY!!

>>712756835
No lol.
DK is a decent selling IP but it's not a blockbuster, and this game looks very different from the previous games (in a weird way) so it could very well be off-putting to normies.
It could benefit from the Switch 2's library being bone dry but won't have much legs.

>>712760151
Star Fox Adventures also had a handful of "real" Star Fox sections so Nintendo could be like
>LOOK LOOK IT'S STILL STAR FOX!!!
but it was a hollow imitation, much like this.

>>712760515
Why would Donkey Kong care about banana-shaped rocks?
He's a gorilla who eats fruit, he doesn't eat rocks.

Buy DKCR HD then.

>>712756737 (OP)
>Literally nothing about this game resembles Donkey Kong.
what's with the constant mental gymnastics to justify not liking this game?
donkey kong's only common theme is being platformers and having donkey kong in them. did you complain when DK64 came out, also a 3D collectathon? did you complain the first time a DK game's protagonist was donkey kong instead of mario?
developmentally arrested retards keep making up arbitrary criteria for what DK is and chimping out just because it isn't donkey kong country. you already got 5 fucking DKC games, move on.

>>712757863
Amazing consoles

The salt when Mini-Pauline is revealed will be wonderful.

>>712768147
>did you complain when DK64 came out, also a 3D collectathon?
Yes that game wasnt well regarded in its time

>>712768583
i don't think it's that off-brand for a DK game but if you hate em both, fair enough.
