I have heard nothing but good things about it.
Apparently they added some save file slots, made it so your clap is much more specific and controlled, added a huge haul of enemies, and a Boss Rush mode.
Is anyone else impressed by a lineup like that? Our Tennis remake wasn't out of this world, but JB seems to be getting a deserved treatment.
Can we PLEASE have a real DK platformer? we haven't had one since the N64, I mean really X_X;;

What. You're so fickle Nayr. We received great Cube and DS properties. It isn't Nintendo's fault your expectations are of something that can induce Guitar Hero or Pokemon fever.

I just want a real DK platformer, ya know, WITHOUT gimmicks? Apparently a non-gimmick title is too much to ask for nowadays without a two or three year wait from Nintendo X_X;;
Hey, I'm glad they at least added/fixed SOMETHING.
Speaking of DK titles, what happened to DK: Jungle Climber? I'm guessing it didn't sell too well, since I can't find it new anywhere and it only came out in 2007.
Finally. I still don't understand how you were supposed to play it with the BONGOS of all things, but it looks playable now.
I had it for gamecube but couldn't beat it I got close, hopefully this will be a little easier to control
I'm gonna have to agree with Nayr.
DK was a HUGE success Because of it's Platformers and what not...why don't they go back to that? Not to sure how good it did but Wario Shake it is a platformer is but Wario was made famous by being a platformer.
Wouldn't it be awesome to play DK and Diddy Kong at the same time on a platformer?
And I'm not talking about one person plays then Tags the other one to play.
My brother never used to tag me into playing, I always just sat and watched him play! BLAH!
Lol
While I do love those games, Star, one thing that comes to mind is "the same old same old". It would get so boring so fast. JB was a refreshing twist, and I think the NPC! will refresh the refresher. I know it sounds weird, but I'm glad the DK series did divert its attention, at least somewhat.

It's not "same old same old" when we haven't had one in ten years... and who said it had to be the same thing? (platformer is such a ubiquitous word in terms of gaming).
BTW, same old same old is Mario and Zelda, since they've had the same story, and inherently same gameplay since their first N64 iterations.
I'm fine with trying some offbeat things every now and then, but really, three different bongo DDR knockoffs (that all were terrible IMHO), and a "meh" half assed effort using the same shoddy peripheral. *rolls eyes* I'm not saying only do that, but doing what the character was famous for every now and again isn't that big a deal (hell, at the rate DK's going, he'll have a longer drought of main series games than Samus did X_X;; )

Speaking of the bongoes, the third version of Donkey Konga featured Full Metal Alchemist's second opening. ;)

There is a reason most people have stepmania on their computers XD
Besides, Larc~en~Ciel + Bongos = pretty darn strange...
...there was a third version of Donkey Konga?

Japan only (mostly due to the anime music, ironically it was all stuff all anime fans here would get anyway X_X;;)
At least it was better than Wii Music's line-up (although frankly that isn't very hard)

Heck, it also had Hi-Hi Puffy Amy Yumi with Fighting Dreamers (Naruto Opening).

I know, although Fighting Dreamers sounds TERRIBLE with bongos X_X;;
Nintendo never has any good music games, I'm sorry they just don't. Besides, Konga will never be Samba de Amigo...
Why does Japan get all the Mother effin cool games, it's honestly not fair, WTF! (what the freak).
Anyway, I'm not into these DDR like games..... If I'm gonna do something like, you'll actually see me Dancing. >_>
And for the Plat-former..... surely with "NINTENDO'S" ever so much advance tech graphics and designers and crap like that, I'm sure they can make a Really good game from Donkey Kong.
If they can't come up with ideas, I'm sure hundreds of fans sure enough could.
Creators sometimes take a wild guess on what Buyers would like, and for Nintendo's sake to please the "Nintendo Loyalist/Hardcore gamers", they FAIL Epically. They need to Listen, and give us what we want......
Oh dang, I'm rambling again.
*shushes*

This is what we've been asking for. We don't seem to be getting it. ;_;

Jungle Climber? Not exactly what we've been wanting, but it's close enough.
I've had it since the September NSider closed.

Or just buy the game in the title, which is a platformer (albeit an enhanced remake of the GCN game) unless I've lost my mind.
