Why the hell not? 20 years ago people would have said that no one but Rare should make a DKC game. Turns out it works perfectly ok without Rare. So I'm willing to give another Studio a chance.

The difference being that the DKC games Rare did in 1994 were state of the art platformers with two of them being the top selling games of the year, and the third being a top 5 game for the year. DKC Returns and Tropical Freeze were nowhere near state of the art games or top 5 selling of the year, leave alone 1st.

Returns is the second best selling DK game of all time though while TF was just unfortunate to be on Wii U, even if we disregard TF you can't use that argument against Returns because the era Returns sold has far bigger heavy hitters each year than what the original trilogy dealt with as Returns is not only dealing with the likes of COD and so on in a far more mainstream industry but 2010 was also one of the best years in gaming history for releases.
