Donkey Kong Country 6 (with some new subtitle)
>new overarching theme is the big city
>enemies are now dressed as bikers, construction wear, or in business suits
>K. Rool returns, his new persona is mafia boss K. Rool Kapone
>story is that DK Island is being cast in shadow by K. Rool Kapone's giant flying city island, and they're dumping their trash onto the island
>DK and his companions must travel to 6 new islands powering the city's levitation to send it plummeting down
>final world has you entering the now grounded city to face off with K. Rool himself

I could dig it

It'll still have the shit physics and level design of the other Retro games, so I won't care.

And plenty of rocket barrel levels too.
>>
>>321226370
The physics and level design are fine. Rocket barrels suck but there were only 3 in TF.

Let it go
The crown goes to Bayonetta
Not Kolombia

>>321225734
This could work. It would also do well as another parallel to the original trilogy (quest for the banana hoard on Donkey Kong Island in both 1 and Returns, pirates/vikings in 2 and TF, and a mechanical/high-tech aesthetic in 3 and 6).

Do we really need K. Rool again?
>>
>>321227989
Yes,

The Mask and the Viking were good distractions. But K. Rool is Kong's nemesis.

But that was years ago and the new DKC games were a success.
SO DO WE NEED HIM?
What can her offer in terms of gameplay?
He doesn't breathe fire or has a hammer, he's just a fat crocodile with a crown
Surely DK deserves better?
>>
>>321228721
The best part about him is that he can do anything
>>
>>321228721
>Surely DK deserves better?

He deserved better in Smash 4.
>>
>>321229550
He deserves better than Retro but nobody is complaining about that.

Wart needs to come back am I right guys?

>>321230041
If not Retro then who?
>>
>>321230204
Nobody gives a fuck nostalgiafag

If he is that important, why isn't he in smash?

Because he's not a Fire Emblem, Kid Icarus or Kirby Character.
Besides everyone knows Sakurai hates DK, Metroid and Zelda

Yeah I forgot about Reckless Ride and the one secret seclusion level.

Because we already have enough Mario characters.
>inb4 not a Mario character
His last appearance was in Super Mario Sluggers. He's a Mario character.

>>321233189
One of Link's latest appearances was in Mario Kart 8

Pretty much the two things that makes the retro games bad. I'd also like to add that the color palette is way too colorful compared to the previous games. I miss the more gritty surreal colors of the snes games.

>>321225734
I like it and would buy it.

>>321238089
Not seeing how the level design or physics of the Retro games are bad.

The level design is lazy platformer mixed with lots of cinematic sections and secret finding that is both boring and pretty lame. Examples including pulling pulling out some hook for hearts or banana coins, or lining up the rock in the sunset level of Returns to make it form a banana. All these gimmicks completely shut down any flow of platforming and the cinematic areas are nothing but flashiness. The minecart and rocket levels are just the icing on the cake.

The physics is wholly worse in Returns. The snes games controlled better because the system didn't try to simulate gravity or inertia. The moment you hit right, there's no acceleration. And when you stop, unless it's an icy surface, you come to a dead stop, making the platforming tighter, and allow Rare to create more fine-tuned platforming stages and encounters. In the Retro games, you have none of that. They clearly tried to copy Super Mario U too much but ended up failing at what made those games fun.

Holy fuck! I've never head an opinion so wrong
>>
>>321239119
Who's making you find all the puzzle pieces? The secrets in the original trilogy were way more obtuse than anything in Tropical Freeze save for the secret exit in the first water level. Moments where you're blasting through barrels are there to break up tough platforming segments, and they never last more than a couple seconds. They were there in the original games too.
The physics are perfectly fine to me. DK never slips around because you're moving too fast in TF, so I have no clue what you're talking about. You basically have 3 speeds - walk, run, and roll jump spamming. There weren't any moments where I found myself hitting stuff because I was going to fast. The only thing about the controls I can see people having trouble with is how you need to turn around fully before you can roll in a different direction which is just something you have to get used to and not a fault with the control scheme.
I haven't played DKC3 or Returns by the way, and I play with the d-pad.

>>321240008
Retro DK games are nowhere near as smooth and controllable as the snes games. It's like you lugging around a weight in the Retro games, while in the snes games, Rare at least was able to make DK feel controllable due to their simpler physic system. How can a company mess up one of the most important parts of a platformer, I don't know.
