I will say that I got to play the demo of Donkey Kong Country for the Wii today, and looks like it played like a competent platformer.  However, I don't see what is special about it.  Can someone fill me in here?  When you had DK Country on the SNES, it was the graphics that set it apart.  But now, it doesn't have that.  Based on the hypefest out of some people, on par with what I did for the Kirby Epic Yarn, I have to wonder what is there that is special?  Is it merely more DK Country for the fans of the original, or does it really bring anything new and notable to the Wii in the area of platformers?  I am NOT saying it is bad, just I don't see what would make it stand out.

Fill me in here, please.
