Im down with another DKC. The last one was one of my fav games a few years ago.

I'm puzzled about this oversaturation of 2D platformers.

Let's see--we saw DKC, right? That's one. We've got NSMBU. That's two. Yoshi Yarn isn't coming until 2014 at the earliest and my guess is we won't see it until 2015. What else has Nintendo shown that is a 2D platformer?

As for the people wanting Retro to be "unleashed," you do realize most of the people behind Metroid Prime are gone, right?

Super Luigi U, Rayman Legends. And then all the stuff on the 3DS. I think the argument is we have plenty of 2D platformers, Wii U and elsewhere.

You know what needs a reboot? Donkey Kong 64.

There was a legit great game in the idea of making a DK 3D platformer that was lost in the final product. This could have been Retro's chance to fix that failure.
