Nintendo Canada Announces an Awesome Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Contest

Sweet, harmless and fun - like the rest of Nintendo This doesnt make me wish I lived in Canada, but good on those that do!

Nice! Good luck to anyone entering, be nice if someone from Nintendo Life won!

Yes it would be nice if I won!

Nintendo Canada is a thing? I thought Canada fell under NOA. Speaking of NOA, I keep hating it more the more I hear about other Nintendos.
Good prizes though.

One can only hope it'll apply to the US too.

@PrincessEevee9 the article, which I'm sure you read extremely thoroughly, quite clearly says "Canada only".

I say good for them. Canada misses out on enough US offers; it's nice for them to have something for once.

Me and someone particular know how many bananas are there:

I'm Canadian. BC is beautiful but I hate traveling and physical activity, so the grand prize doesn't appeal to me at all.

But good luck to the contestants!!

I think this is the first Canadian contest that does include Québec. Joy !

I tried to enter but the page itself doesn't work because it loops back to the front page...

Nintendo of Canada? Is that a thing? Huh, I always thought that NoA contests were for Mexico, USA, and Canada. I guess that Canada's going solo. That's fine, more chances of winning for me in the USA!

I live in Vancouver. I got rid of Facebook a year ago but the prize might be good enough to make a one-timer account

Ive been coming to this site for 6 or 7 years - well vc-reviews way back when - and I cant recall ever seeing the words Nintendo and Canada next to each other. But good for them. Im still on the lookout for a deal myself so I know where to buy it. US has so many possibilities both online and off. Too bad Amazon seems to have cut back on its $1 day 1 delivery.

That video was awesome! I want a DK suit like that!!!
Hopefully a shorter version of this can be advertised on TV or as a sponsor for a popular TV show.

I would rather be a runner up then the winner because I wouldn't have to time to go skiing, I just hope I had a good guess.

@Ruceyod

Is Quebec like the red-headed stepchild of good ol' Maple Leaf Country or something?

Entered!!

Is it wrong that I would rather win one of the second place prices..? A trip to BC just doesn't sound very appealing. lol

@JaxonH

Yes

Those prizes sound great. Nice to see they are throwing an extra set of controllers. They should be banana yellow!

Good luck to all who enter.

Yes, all 5 of you Canadians who are still Nintendo fans, you should jump on this

I'm sorry, but I'm from Canada and usually gamers here have either Xbox or Playstation, I know absolutely no one with Nintendo stuff, there really isn't much love left for Nintendo in Canada, it seems. Should have made this contest for all of North America, get a nice amount of people to enter

@sinalefa I'd rather the red controllers if I could enter, rather than 5 yellow controllers that only 5 will have, and they will end up getting lost in the abyss only to be found millions of years from now when they are worth $1M+

this better happen for the uk and a trip to scotland

This is perfect I'm from Canada love skiing, got my own skis and boots and I love nintendo. Go Canadian olympic team.

One reason I imagine it'd be open only to Canada is the logistics. If some from another country won there could be complications with border crossings or lack of proper passport requirements. I doubt Nintendo wants to deal with bad press when someone is denied their grand prize because of cross-border issues.

wow it seems that other nintendo companies are boosting up the marketing except the U.S sigh :/

yesssss

dam wont let me enter. Keeps saying BEFORE YOU ENTER LIKE OUR PAGE. After I like it..it takes me back to starting page and I click enter again its a never ending loop.

i guess they need more likes XD

Wow, I didn't even know there was a Nintendo of Canada lol. It won't let me enter at the moment, so I'll try again later.

I'm pretty sure I would've won this had it been open to USA residents as well.....my guess is a very very calculated estimate. Or at the very least would've come close. I just have a feeling I got it very close, I shall find out when the results come up.

@hydeks So true, I feel ya. That's the problem we have. And there's me with my 9 Wii U games, including monster hunter, and no friends to play with online. It's a shame, really.

@Matts14 you should win then! Hot tip, the answer is 2514 Bananas!

987,572 bananas. Nailed it👌

@hydeks There are a good number of Nintendo fans in my area, but I think that like in most places, there are also a lot of sony/Microsoft fans. I have a few friends who own a Wii U and some who are waiting for the next Zelda or some other game.

False. Most Canadians I know, have no interest in Xbox. Most are either Nintendo or Sony.

7,320?

Where's my Mexican "plátano-mania" ?

My guess was Banana.
Is this DKC 5? It may have something to do with 5; that was my guess.

For anyone that couldn't get it to work it is working now.
