    i bought DKCTF for the Wii U day one and was blow away by the level design, difficulty and the legendary music. David Wise surpassed the orginal series with DKCTF...i cant recommend it enough...its my #1 favorite Wii U game that deserves another shot!

    This series doesn’t get enough love as it should. It’s super fun, energetic, and will last for so long. I will say it’s pretty hard so your probably not going to enjoy it if your not good at platformers.

    If you played Donkey Kong Country Returns for the Wii, than you'll love this one too. Same great gameplay, great music and beautifully looking game. Even if it's your first time playing a Donkey Kong game, you'll still have a blast. Enjoy!

    One of the best games for the unpopular Wii U is thankfully given a second chance on the Nintendo Switch. The original game was tough so the added Funky Kong mode is welcome. Great graphics, music and smooth gameplay make this a must buy!

    It’s great game that plays very well on switch. Graphics are crisp and the controls responds well. It’s a must have platformer. However, at times is challenging for my children and myself.

    Sharp graphics, incredible level design, and a top notch soundtrack elevate DK Tropical Freeze as one of the greatest platforming games in recent memory. A nice transition from the Wii U version. Definitely worth adding to your collection!

    At 68yo I am not your typical platform gamer but this game is fun and not too very difficult. If I were better I would not keep dying and have to replay levels so many times.

    Yes, this game came out on Wii U but the visuals hold up very well and seem to have been optimized for the Switch. The gameplay is top-notch as always and will beat you up if you don't watch out. Very entertaining and challenging.

    This is a fun game that reminds me of the old donkey Kong games but with a lot of new and modern twists. It’s definitely a lot harder to get all the letters and now there’s puzzle pieces as well. Wish it was a little simpler like the old school games. Funky mode definitely makes it easier for younger players. Overall it’s a really good and fun game.

    Best Platformer Of All Time

    I usually don’t like platformers. They use cleaver techniques to make you die unfairly or use some sort of hidden puzzle that blocks you and halts your progress for 25 minutes. Donkey Kong just lets you run free through all of the beautiful worlds linking enemies and dodging obstacles in all kinds of new and interesting ways. If you die, it’s not some stupid mechanic or impossible jump, it’s your skill, plain and simple. It’s just plain fun. I never thought I’d love a platformer again, but this did. The art and animations are so beautifully done as is the level design. This deserves all of the accolades it’s gotten.

    Hopefully Nintendo keeps pumping these games out. They are incredible! None top the old DKC games on the Super Nintendo, but these are great modern versions and I would recommend them to anyone!
