    Had to get this game because my family use to play it on Super NES. Now that is obsolete, so this is the next best thing.

    Nice upgrade in graphics from the DS version. Buttons are hard to get used to but that’s just me. I have not gotten very far into it but, what I’ve played so far it’s great. Can’t go wrong with Donkey Kong.

    Excellent game, but overpriced

    Always loved Returns, and it's great to be able to play the game in HD AND on the go, but $60 for an otherwise low effort - but certainly still more than playable and serviceable - port/remaster of a 15+ year old Wii game (that's also already been ported once before) that was never $60 either time it was previously released (and that even got a Nintendo Selects reprint for $20, at least on the 3DS) is absolutely greedy and inexcusable. Especially when things like Metroid Prime Remastered exists, which is from the same company and had WAY more effort put into it despite only being $40. Definitely recommend to anyone who has played the game and wouldn't mind forking out the extra cash to replay it in HD and/or on the go, or especially anyone who has never played the older two releases, but it should have been $30-40 AT MOST. Three stars is, regrettably, the best I can give to an otherwise fantastic five star game due to the price alone. Lack of effort wouldn't have mattered as much were it not for that. :/
