    Pre-ordered and picked up this game with no issue at all. Ignore the cry babies that had to wait in line for a few more seconds or dont understand that a pre-order means your copy is reserved and not all copies could make it to the store. Grown men crying over a game and wait time, get real. xD who cares if you called out of work for a game, thats your biggest issue.

    Don't review based on delay

    Nintendo delayed the shipment of the entirety of this game's inventory through Best Buy. Don't review the game based on your delay, review the game based on your time playing it!

    A Remake Classic

    To be honest, i played this game long ago and forgot all about it. The more i see the overhaul in graphics, controls, and item gathering, the more i enjoy this renovation. But is it worth the $60 sticker price? Yes, indeed it is. With the gameplay always fascinatingly difficult compared to other platformers on this console; this game makes you feel like value is achieved.

    Good Remaster But Also Some Feelings About It.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Overall a game remastered from its previous original like with DK:Tropical Freeze and Kirby's Return To Dreamland. Like with the previously mentioned games you do get a few bonus features and of course upgraded graphical improvements but at the cost of $60 is it worth it? If you only have the Switch sure it's definite a must have but if you still have a Wii console then it'll really depend on how big a fan you are for the series. Still a little hypocritical of me since I now have the Wii version and the Switch version.
