I'd rather have a 2D Metroid. The Donkey Kongs didn't really stand out as anything extra special. They were good, but I liked Mario better (and almost everyone did), and 2D platformers today are now so much better than the DKs, that I don't really see why another one would be anything super.

 

 

      They were special if you were born in 1972, liked the Delaurentis version of King Kong that was released in 1976 and that they were showing every year on NBC back in the late seventies and early eighties, had only really seen Pac-Man and Space Invaders in arcades, and then you walked in to an arcade one day and saw a game that featured an ape like Kong scaling a building.  Although, yes, the future Marios and Metroid were better games.



Heavens to Murgatoids.
