Video: There's A Chill In The Air With This New Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Trailer

60€. Oh Nintendo...

@SuperCharlie78
That’s the cue for the bullies to attack you for “complaining” about the price.

I will wait until it's cheaper to be fair.
Edit: Actually on Amazon.co.uk it is only £40

@Bunkerneath £40 is about $60. Are games usually more expensive in the UK?

@Alex78 not usually but always more expensive in the uk.

awesome trailer.

@Alex78
AAA games are generally around £49.99 on PS4 and XBOX and Switch.

Amazon UK sells Nintendo games far cheaper than the Nintendo eshop and other retail outlets. For example I paid £40 for MK8D at Amazon when it is £50 in the UK eshop.

Cool trailer. Just a month away now. Love that 20% off with US Amazon Prime and it's an even better value for someone like me who never picked it up for Wii U. Portable Donkey Kong Country! 😀

€60 is about 450kr., which I think is pretty reasonable.

Nintendo games have appeared at 500 or even 600kr. over the years, although the latter was mostly an N64 thing.

@subpopz I second this, but I skipped WiiU so I may sound a little biased

I’m guessing this’ll be $80. Another one I’ll get on sale someday. 😒

I do want but lots of stuff coming round at that time so I’ll wait and grab later. Maybe price will drop like the Wii U version slightly.

This will be Nintendo’s second first-party retail release on Switch in 2018, and it’s a port. Two games in nearly five months. Why did they let things slow down so badly? I thought the Wii U era was over?

I'll pass on this - already have the Wii U version so no need to double dip on this as there isn't really anything extra added (for me anyway).
Wonderful101 on the other hand.....maybe...if they ever revisit it.

@thesilverbrick ...mmmh because developing games takes quite longtime? Nintendo published a good amount of games until now, the real thing missing on Switch are big 3rd party titles (nothing new since the SNES era by the way...)

Great game, hopefully it gets more exposure on the Switch. Pretty tough, I got no where near 100% but I did finally beat the last boss after 50 or so tries

Hard pass on this. Have Wii U version and the price of the game being $10 higher than the original release is just unacceptable.

I do t have a Wii U anymore and DkCTF is one of my favorite games but at 60 it is a hard pass

Looks great, 5 years later. Sold my Wii U copy to pick this up. One of the best 2D platformers of all time, IMO.

Also a hard pass. Doesn't have the first game (would've really liked a HD version of the 3DS re-release that had the extra levels and no waggle gimmicks) alongside it and no new Lost World levels this time either for its re-release...
An easy mode that I'll never use is not enough to warrant an inflated price tag for an old game.

Wonderful 101 on the other hand, now that would be an easy sell for me as just it being on Switch would mean they'd be forced to change the dual-screen gimmick sections of the game. Hate those sections!
Maybe they could also improve the controls of the Star Fox-esque part near the end where you're flying towards the Geath Star (no, that's not a typo xd) as it was really hard to make small, precise movements with the crappy controls. It was like playing with huge deadzones on your analogue stick >.<

Hach 60€... For 40€ i would have picked it up right away.

Hype.

One of my favorite video games of all time.

Just being a handheld version is worth it alone. HD hybrid version with Funky for some insane new time trial runs?

This is one of the most exciting releases on Switch to date. Buying both physically and digitally. This game is incredible.

@Bunkerneath That's still a bad price, BOTW and Mario Odyssey were £40 on release, too.

One of the best platformers I've ever played.

A. Overpriced
B. Platformers arent my favorite.
C. Still probably a day one purchase.

I’m so excited to 100% this game again! This is by far one of my favorite platformers! Oh yeah and speaking of the Spyro and Crash trilogies, wouldn’t a Donkey Kong Country trilogy be amazing? Seeing those Super Nintendo games fully realized in Full HD and 60 FPS 🤤🤤🤤

The message for this game:

-If you never played this on the WiiU, GET IT!!! IT SO FREAKING AWESOME, HARD and FUN! THE MUSIC ALONE IS SO GOOD!!!!

-If you have this on the WiiU, there is no REAL reason to get it again unless you want it portable or love it so much you wanna double dip/sold your WiiU or just HAVE to play as Funky Kong.

I have lots of fond memories of Tropical Freeze. Favorite stages and moments like stage 3-1 was BASICALLY LION KING FROM START TO FINISH but it's DK as Mufusa!!!!! ^__^ Maybe I'll get it later on but it is not a day one buy for me. Waiting for Dark Souls on the Switch because never played the original.

@gaby_gabito SHELLS YES for Donkey Kong Country Trilogy!!!!!! That would be FREAKING AMAZING!!!!!!

Imagine (re)playing this GOAT 2D platformer on your gorgeous HD rumble hybrid handheld, while watching E3, and seeing Nintendo announce the final game in the DKCR trilogy. 😭🙏

Please, Universe... Karma owes me this (and Animal Crossing!) after 2 f'd up back surgeries and years of pain. kthnxbai ❤️

I still haven't got an NS yet, & even when I do get one, I have this as a Club Nintendo freebie, so... no double dipping.

Ill get it when it’s 20 quid
