Wasnt it the same as what Nintendo showed at E3?

Yes. Four levels, one of which was a boss.

 

[Victrix]

No, because I played it at PAX

Though we did grab some pretty good boss footage for a strategy segment we did. It's here, if interested.

Did I... Did I just watch a video guide for how to jump on an enemy in a platformer? :lol

Damn right you did; thanks!

It will always be disturbing that anyone would get irritated by the loss of characters created by a 1st grader.

Let's play a game, make a better character that is as cute, adorable, friendly, and comical as the Rare designs (complete with googly eyes) and we will judge if you are smarter than a 1st grader.

My avatar has better design sense in its nipple.

Well, it does have the sense of humor of a 1st grader.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

I'd put it at 3rd grade at the minimum.

First graders find peg legged crocs funny.

Yeah, they still haven't "matured" to the "FIGS IN MY RECTUM" stage... :lol

Luckily, peg legged crocs are not obnoxious.

That takes many years of depravity to appreciate.

Shitty designs? Yes.

Obnoxious? No.

It took years to become this irritating.

 

[Chet Rippo]

Didn't we already have this argument before? This thread seems to going in circles. But I suppose that's natural when they haven't released any new info in a while.

I blame those other two for supporting shit character designs.

 

[Boney]

And some of you say 3DS threads are freaky.

I'm saying your avatar is obnoxious.

Why are they offensive to you?

 

[Thunder Monkey]

I'm saying your avatar is obnoxious.

It's meant to cause discomfort.

Why are they offensive to you?

I designed them in the first grade and Rare stole them.

 

[Chet Rippo]

They are freaky.

 

[WillyFive]

It's meant to cause discomfort.

So you are just a bad person?

I designed them in the first grade and Rare stole them.

I am so sorry. I would never have made those exaggerations of 1st graders if I had known they were true.

 

[Boney]

They are freaky.

shut up

 

[Thunder Monkey]

So you are just a bad person?



I am so sorry. I would never have made those exaggerations of 1st graders if I had known they were true.

I was wondering when you were going to catch on.:lol

Good game.

Me sleepy now though. I've been up for almost 24 hours again.

Time to sleep and dream of murdering Kremlings.

 

[Somnid]

And some of you say 3DS threads are freaky.

Pretty much any Nintendo thread in the last few years are freaky. They just devolve into arguing canon and creepy fan-art.

Sorry, I am not able to carry a real time conversation due to real life. You shouldn't be awake for almost 24 hours. You need at least 8 hours of rest.

Maybe that's why don't like Rare characters. The eyes....they just stare at you.....

Pretty much any Nintendo thread in the last few years are freaky. They just devolve into arguing canon and creepy fan-art.

I haven't seen those.

Just the Sonic threads.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Also erotic massages.

Maybe that's why don't like Rare characters. The eyes....they just stare at you.....

Yeah, schizophrenia is a bitch.

So I decided to buy a Wii JUST for this game.

Found one on Craigslist.

Wii + Wii Sports + 2 Remotes + 2 Nuncuks + Wii Fit + Wii Balance Board for $105.

Am I going to get raped? I'm meeting him in the quad of a major college campus in 5 minutes. He says his aunt won it and gave it to him but he doesn't like Wii.

Guess we'll see.

Bring lube and condoms just incase.

Don't want him going in dry and bareback.

That totally sounds like too good of a deal.

That's an astonishing deal. Check if there are VC or Wiiware games already inside!

 

[Boney]

It's a win win situation. Either get the Wii, or have fun in the alley.

It's from a bro gamer. No way it's gonna have any of those.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

I'm still irritated that I'm not playing this right now.

With Rare out of the way the game has a good chance of being a great game.

Old Rare or bad Rare?

There's a difference?!

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Did you not just read the last page or so? He doesn't like them period.

I liked BattleToads... does that count?

 

[Boney]

Thought Monkey man only had a problem with the artstyle. I am dissapoint man. If you don't like DKC2, then we can't be friends.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Nah, at one time I loved Rare. Shitty character designs and all.

I just couldn't resist seeing people still moaning about the loss of crappy characters.

 

[Chet Rippo]

I don't know, you tell me. Does Battle Toads outweigh everything else you hate about Rare?

 

[Thunder Monkey]

I don't know, you tell me. Does Battle Toads outweigh everything else you hate about Rare?

I don't know, did people actually miss the Kremlings? If so then no.

Duh, you'd have to be soulless not to like it.:lol

And I must say that vid made me happy in bad places.

 

[Boney]

Ok, I still like you then. And DK feels so strong here <3

 

[Datschge]

DKCR is called "Returns" because it's a return to that gameplay style, as opposed to the combo-focused DKJB.

I just hope they took notes of the gameplay variety in DKC2 instead only that of DKC1.

 

[Akai]

I just hope they took notes of the gameplay variety in DKC2 instead only that of DKC1.

Looks like I can answer anything just using quotes from this interview:

"The first week that we knew we were working on this project, we played every single DK game. We wanted to just immerse ourselves in Donkey Kong. We made everybody play through all three of them. And people were saying, "Dude! This is too hard!" (laughs) But that's where we drew inspiration, was from the old DKC stuff. And we played all the Game Boy stuff. How do you improve on something unless you're very, very familiar with it? I think that's where we've gotten most of our inspiration -- going back and playing those games religiously. Stepping back 12 years and trying to get into the head of what made this game fun."

I'm glad that the game designers at Retro are excited to make Donkey Kong Country, and are fans of the series. When the news first broke a lot of people were acting like they were forced into making the game. As if working on a 2d game was some sort of punishment or a waste of talent.

Yeah well, some people are pretty stupid.
