    Excellent game, but not much new from Wii U

    This is a great game, no matter what system it is on, but it may not be worth buying it again for the Switch if you have the WiiU version. My son likes that he can take the game with him on the Switch and he likes Funky Mode which makes the game a little easier than normal. If you don’t care about either of these things and have the WiiU version, spend your money on a new game.

    I have played several DK titles over the years and found all of them fun and enjoyable. This one is no different and had cleverly done levels. It looks great on Switch and the inclusion of Easy mode is great as I try to turn my 4 year old on to video games. If you own a Switch, like Donkey Kong or Mario games then you need to purchase this.

    Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze on the Switch is a direct port from the Wii U version of the game with some added features, most notably 'Funky Mode' which makes the game slightly easier to play, and adding Funky Kong as a playable character. Anyone who enjoys this style of platformer, or needs a nostalgic trip, this is a must have game for you.

    Love this game, it is one of the best Wii U games, but that’s just it. 60 bucks is way more than the 50 this game launched at. If you can find it on sale like I did it’s worth it

    It's been decades since I'd played donkey kong and now for the first time playing it on the switch brings back so many memories! Loving the tropical scenes and makes you feel like your actually taking a vacation! I've played it for so long and didn't want to put the switch down cause it's very addictive! This game is a beast and recommend it to anyone who's a big donkey kong fan!

    It was much harder than expected. Definitely had the feel of the older games but animal sections are scarce. 2nd player characters having odd second jumps makes it weird though.

    This is one of the best platformers ever created. Retro studios has done a master class job at creating one of the most beautiful, rewarding, and challenging platformers to date. DK and clan have never looked better nor has their world looked more alive. This is an essential if you are Nintendo fan or if you just enjoy excellent platformers.

    Fun game. I think its the best one in the series. Donkey Kong's controls can be a little clunky, but you get used to it quickly.

    If you haven't heard, Nintendo publishes great games. Tropical Freeze is no different. It is the same game that came out on the Wii U years ago but is a package with an extra funky kong mode that makes it much simpler for beginners to play. Colorful environments and great level and art design make this a must-buy for anyone with a switch.

    Great game. I had fun playing it on the Wii U for a few years. I wish Nintendo immediately discounted their software that was just Ported to the newest system. A lot of the game”plus” stuff makes it ok but I mean they sold the games for $20 before. Oh well. If you like DKC 1-2-3& Returns, you’ll like this.
