Some of you people can't seem to wrap this around your head. DKCR sold more than all of the prime games combined. That's more than enough reason for Nintendo to continue with DK rather than Metroid.

Believe me I wished Retro was working on Metroid but it is something that you are going to have to accept whether you like it or not.

True but with NSMB U released, adn NSMB 3D World coming this holiday season, MEtroid would've definitely appealed to a different audience. More doesn't necessarily mean moore hardware. 

I still love DKC and think it is far superior as a 2D platformer to NSMB. I'm generally excited BUT I'd rather see more. X adn Bayonetta are the only games giving Nintendo fans some hope. Hopefully we'll be seeing a new Zelda game soon and some fresh IP's instead of recycling platformers (which imo is getting ridiculous).

I'm a Nintendo fan and Donkey Kong gives me hope. I'm as hyped for it as I am for X and Bayo 2, which is to say a lot.
