    Donkey Kong Country was one of my favorite games as a kid. This game perfectly captures that difficulty and charm of the original and brings it into the next generation with a brilliant, bright world. The Funky Kong "easy mode" isn't for experienced players, but can be a lifesaver when you have a younger player who gets easily frustrated that wants to join in.

    The DKC series has been one of my favorites since the first release on SNES in the 90s. There's a unique sense of movement that Donkey Kong and co. have in this series that doesn't feel like any other game in this genre. With the more recent games, the difficulty has been pumped up higher than ever, so if you love challenging games, DKC:TF has plenty to offer.

    WOW. If you like donkey kong, side scrollers, nintendo games, you will enjoy! I just got the game on switch, after buying on wiiu when it released in 2013/14. This Switch title is superior, runs better, and is so fun to play in handheld and looks great both on big screen and handheld.

    As a fan of the SNES Donkey Kong Country series, this was a must have. It brings the feel of the original games to the updated platform of the Switch.

    Really fun Donkey Kong game, and platformer in general. Get it and play it with a friend, lots of charm. Good luck getting this game for a deal tho, Nintendo has conferences if putting this game on sale will financially hurt them.

    Retro Studios went from Metroid Prime to Donkey Kong. At first I was a bit disappointed, but it was soon apparent that Retro was just as good at making Donkey Kong games as they had been at making Metroid games. Challenging, but not too challenging. The visuals are nice, the controls feel right, and the music is composed by the great David Wise.

    Donkey Kong has held a special place in heart since childhood, and it never disappointed me. Without WiiU, I was not able to play this game, but re-release in Switch made it possible for me to play this. This is just a great game with classic touch, but this game requires ultimate timing! A fun for all ages!

    As far as platformers go, this is one of the best. If you are looking for something a bit more adult and more challenging than say "Kirby Star Allies", then this is the game for you. If you already have it on Wii U there's no reason to buy this. But if you've never had the Wii U and like DK games then grab this one. The mine kart levels are stunning.

    DK: Tropical Freeze feels very much like an old school SNES DK game. However, since it's a port of a Wii U game, I feel like it doesn't justify a full $60 price tag.

    This donkey kong game reminds me of the endless hours I spent playing donkey kong country 2 on super nintendo. Fast forward 20 years or so and the switch does this classic series installment great justice. This game is crazy difficult, but always keeps you coming back. I've yet to beat it, this will be a permanent piece in the collection.
