Donkey Kong Country Returns

I may actually buy this seeing as I don't already have the Wii version and I got a bad feeling that this game may not sell that well. As such this game could end up rarer than the Wii version in years to come.
 
When was the original released? Late 2010? It's been less than three years and they're already making a remake. The original is still available on shelves.

What I am hoping for in the remake is additional content.
 
Not everyone has a Wii though, so if they have a 3DS, the remake will at least have its reasons for existing.
 
:donkey kong has same setting; people complain
:donkey kong has new setting; people complain

they just can't win
 
None of that makes sence I know.

I hate how the people who just complain. (looking at you Nabber)
 
I'm not complaining or anything, I'm just saying that there are other nintendo games that are coming out close to or soon after that interest me more.
 
IMO, Donkey kong country 3 was the best out of all of them. It had it all accept mine carts.
 
^ Are you sure about that? Tearaway Toboggan would like to have a word, along with Demolition Drain-Pipe. Well, I guess they technically aren't "mine carts", but it's a similar gameplay mechanic with the exact same control scheme.

Why shouldn't people complain about this? Instead of getting a Donkey Kong Land-style follow-up, we're getting nothing more than a port of the exact same game that was released two years ago, and is still on store shelves at full price. Sure, the first three DKC games had handheld ports, but the originals and their respective consoles had long since become obsolete, and were no longer in stores. Plus, all of those (even the garbage GBC port of the first game) actually had new content. The Returns, port, on the other hand, has no excuse whatsoever to even exist. The only thing good about this, in my opinion, is that it might open up a door for a Virtual Console release of the Donkey Kong Land series.
 
Good point Solar blaze, never gave that much thought. Those can be considered mine cart levels I guess. Tearaway Toboggan has got to be my favorite out of the two.

Every donkey kong game has had a port. Donkey kong country for example: SNES-best one by the way, Gameboy-donkey kong land-meh, gameboy color-terrible, GBA-ok I guess, virtual console- best port since SNES. It gets old after a while.
How many times will they port DKCR? Only time will tell. Let's hope it's not five times within a ten-years span.
 
In terms of mine carts, regarding offensive capabilities, I've seen the following...

DKC: Mine carts can't be used for offense by any means; Donkey and Diddy can only defeat a Krash if they're not riding in a mine cart.

DKC2: Skull carts can defeat enemies that Diddy and Dixie can normally jump on.

DKC3: Toboggans can defeat even enemies that Dixie and Kiddy can't jump on, such as Buzzes.

DKCR: Mine carts operate in the same manner as in DKC2, except for that hitting obstacles while riding in one results in an instant life loss at Crazy Cart, Bombs Away, and Prehistoric Path.
 
I would rather if they releasesd a revamped version of the trilogy.
