    Have been a fan since SNES Donkey Kong Country, first ever game owned. This new game developed did an awesome job on the platformer game. The stages were fun, no doubt about it. Must buy.

    For those that have already played the wii version, this one has better controls and is protable so definitely worth a buy. And for those that haven't played it yet, get to it

    This game is a great Donkey Kong platforming game and doesn't have the annoying motion controls that it did on the Wii making it a much more pleasant experience!

    It's almost too small on the 3ds, but they made a good attempt at revamping the game. I had expected extra levels or goodies, but I guess not. It's almost exactly like the old game.

    I've played other Donkey Kong games. This one is not that much different from Donkey Kong Country. A few things you do differently but mostly the same game.

  • Fantastic!

    A perfectly challenging side-scroller. Absolutely loved this game. Only thing missing is the original "Aquatic Ambiance" track that I love so much...

    This game is the wii version but in 3d. Does suffer frame rate issues when the screen becomes busy but the 3d effects are very nice must buy .
