Sorry for the reupload folks but there was a massive audio issue in the original upload that I couldn't oerlook. So I had to re-render it. Thanks for watching tho!
As a DK fan, I do not perceive this as a loss, my expectations for Nintendo have been through the floor for so long now that I was expecting literally nothing.
At least they're not pulling a Luigi Mansion or a Bowser Inside Story remake and waiting until after the successor has already released just to release the port on the OG Switch.... ...that said, I miss new DKC games. Can I join you with the copeium?
Being a Metroid fan I can empathise with you. But at the same time DK has been treated a hell of a lot better than Metroid. Tropical Freeze was released 10 years ago ok fair. But I had to wait 18 years for a mainline game. (Quick note prime games are not mainline. All mainline Metroid games are 2D.) And do you know what the Metroid fandom got in those 18 years? One prime game, Other M, and Prime Hunters. So one decent game followed by two slaps in the face. And after that nothing. The only thing making waves in the Metroid community that got enough attention for Nintendo to kill and make their official version was AM2R (Another Metroid 2 Remake). Then again nothing until they shadow dropped Dread 5 years later. Now lets see what DK has gotten in the same time frame. Two fantastic games that have cemented DK in the greater Nintendo fandom. One of which is getting a remaster less then 2 years after the console it was released on lost its e shop. So I understand why you are upset about getting a remaster. Its better then something truly half hearted or nothing at all. And I can all but guarantee you Retro is working on a DKC title. Nintendo would have made a big deal about the Returns remaster if they didn't have something in the works. The reason why you are getting a remaster and not a new game is because Retro has been working on the Prime remaster and Prime 4. And the reason why I'm so confident there is another DKC in the pipeline is because of one very simple reason. Tropical Freeze was pitched by Retro. And when Tropical Freeze was announced the reaction from the media and Nintendo fans was “Should have been Metroid.” I can all but guarantee you will see a new DKC in the near future.
@@bassplayer2011ify that's a whole lot of horse crap. You seriously want to argue DK has it better than Metroid while Metroid has 2 original games and a Remaster on Switch that were actually well received, and DK has two remasters that have mostly been met with contempt and apathy? The whole "Should Have Been Metroid" attitude wasn't limited to gaming journos, Nintendo fans, even the ones you would expect to go to bat for DK also thought Tropical Freeze was a waste. It's also worth mentioning that people actually respect Metroid and don't perceive it as just another crappy Mario spin-off.

Honestly I couldn't care less about the lack of Games because this game is the best in the Franchise.
Gotta disagree wit that one.
@@MiguelMustNerd 😂
@@MiguelMustNerd I think I've just excepted the fact that games take ages to release. 🥲
@@MiguelMustNerd Retro Studio's is too busy with Metroid right now.
