Figured it’d be nice to have a spot to talk about this. Link is to the upcoming direct on their channel.
People can also post articles after the fact, I don’t think our community is so active that I worry about clogging the feed. But we’ll see. I’m excited!
If somebody could summarise it for me that would be great. I don’t really care enough to watch it myself, but I’ll want to be in the loop enough to know what people are talking about when they reference it.
If no one else does I’ll probably whip one up when it’s done. I’ll be up at 6am watching lol 😮💨
Skong for sure dropping tomorrow
Beleiver leaking out
starts in 12 hours
Yep, this is in preparation!
Maybe I did it too early but I’m excited and don’t really care :p
Nah posting in advance is good, just making people aware
Am I the only one that felt like DK didn’t really feet right? The game looked good, but to me he stood out like a saw thumb even in the Mario Kart trailer. haha maybe I’m just an old man now but its odd because the link and Mario re designs have always been fine for me.
Donkey Kong Country’s Donkey Kong wasn’t actually the Donkey Kong from Donkey Kong. I kinda hope this redesign is gonna be justified by saying he’s a third one.
The donkey kong wer’e all familiar with is the third one. DK 1/Cranky is from Donkey Kong (the one with Jumpman/Mario). DK jr from Donkey Kong Jr. DK III is from Country onwards
I don’t count Jr because he has a Jr in his name. The other two are just Donkey Kong.
He’s called Donkey Kong Jr. because he’s the son of the first Donkey Kong. His name is still Donkey Kong. And this is all the canon of the games. In DK 64, Cranky repeatedly calls DK his grandson and it’s been too long since I’ve played/read them but I’m pretty sure this is all stated in the Donkey Kong Country games and written material for the games.
