weakest entry in the series. still had fun though. Factory world was peak and Volcano was straight up bullshit sometimes but it was challenging and fun to play through.

This is everything I wanted from the SNES DKC trilogy. I really loved these games. It takes everything which made the SNES games good and polishes it, while subsequently removing the annoying parts. There is amazing visual clarity, DK handles really well, and Diddy's jetpack is really cool to use. The level design is fabulous, and each level is so unique.

This game is brutal, especially the boss fights. I really needed Diddy for pretty much everything. However, they are still a lot of fun.

The music is great even though its mostly remasters of old tracks. Smokey Peak/Palm Top Groove was my favorite.

I have one thing to mention though. Around halfway through the game, I decided to dump my cartridge and play it on an emulator with an actual controller. This was probably the best decision I made. The 3DS does not do the game justice. Playing it on an emulator really shows the beautiful details of the levels, and an actual controller makes it just way more comfortable to play. You are basically getting the Wii experience without the bad controls.

This is a fantastic game, and I highly recommend it!

I stand in plea, under coconut tree,
"Two visa I need, to Donkey Kong Country",
"We shall return to thee, return in 3D.
Return eating banana with big monkey".
"Miyamoto don’t concern, Miyamoto don’t cry,
for we, my friend, are booked to fly."

Donkey Kong country returns on the good with really impressive 3D visuals

Not as good as the Wii version, but what did I really expect?


tiene bastantes ideas buenas y escenarios con tremendos espectaculos pero la mayorai de veces se queda corto en la ejecucion y encima la musica es o aburrida o remixes de los dkc originales (mayormente el 1) asi q bueno pero igual los mundos 7 y 8 carrean bastante casi le pongo 2.5 si no fuera por esos
