I have no problem with the score but when part of the reason for the score was lack of difficulty and the reviewer hasn't even completed the hardest part of the game..... it begs questions.

The core of the game.  Im sorry but i have played better platformers that are simply better that hasnt been repetitive like mario bros has been in the last 5 years.  And as i stated before, it being easy was not the only issue.  But when 8 worlds are not a challenge AT ALL i will stand by what I said. Being uninspiring, been there done that in the last 5 years multiple times, with little to no challenge, i see an issue. Nothing will change the fact that the level designs are easy. And for the coins on my second play through they are not hard to get either.  Just use the acorn power up for every coin.  I also stated that it made the game even easier when the game was already easy in the first place.  If the only way for a challenge is to go out of your way for coins then that is a flaw on the game because at the core of the game it is still easy.  As stated in the review, for the more CORE and EXPERIENCED i would not recommend this game.  It is more for the EVERyDAY gamer which is why its easier.    That way kids can have fun as well.  This is a core site and I will review it as such.  

Now instead of dwelling on coins so much you all can hop on over to the Donkey Kong Country 3D AUR review.

Whut? I guess I'm not experienced with 30 years of gaming every single day? You would not recommend it? I hated the co-op difficulty in NSMBWii and DKCR, this one was just right. And now you're complaining it's too easy when you use the acorn power up. That's like complaining Dark souls is too easy when you follow the Wiki. It's there as a last resort not to get completely stuck.
The game is not too easy, we both ended with 99 continues and still haven't finished all superstar road levels. Plus we had to resort to a guide a few times to find out where the last few coins were.
It seems you mostly played through it single player, using power ups and didn't complete the game.

After reading your DKC3D review I guess we better steer clear of that one. (don't have a 3DS anyway and no local co-op)
