Considering how some fans are angry at Tropical Freeze in the first place and how Wii U's release schedule is unknown beyond holiday 2015, Retro announcing another 2D Donkey Kong game for 2016 will strike a lot of nerves.
Plus, Tropical Freeze is selling poorly compared to bigger first party titles. So even the market wants a different game than a side scrolling Donkey Kong game.
It's a shame though because it definitely has more love in music and art style than the New Super Mario Bros. games. I wish Retro would become bigger and have a team dedicated for side scrolling platformers. They can teach the New Super Mario Bros team how to make their game as good as the classic side scrolling Mario!
