Hopefully because donkey kong is underperforming they don't cut staff...

To be frank, it looked between 20-30... I could just go watch it again and try to take an actual headcount (some names repeat, which is why it's hard to count, but why it also made it seem like a smaller staff when certain names come up several times). |
interesting. if someone could record it and do an analysis of it like gamexplain unless you want to do a video of it yourself of course

A 5-person team to cobble together plot, levels, gameplay, and physics while 95 people labor on Fox's tail and Peppy's ears?
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

They're wholly-owned by Nintendo, and the absolute last thing Nintendo can afford to do right now is cut development staff.

Slippy Toads tongue man! Gots to have that 1080p saliva!
Considering Monster Games also aided in the development of DK:TC and that Nintendo refused to answer questions on whether or not they had two teams at Retro, I am assuming they do indeed have two teams.
| ZyroXZ2 said: Having posted my video review of DKC:TF just yesterday, something occurred to me that I wanted to mention... I sat through the credits, and watched them roll in their entirety. This game had a rather small staff. With Retro Studios being rumored to be closer to 100 employees, I can't help but think that this game was done with a smaller team, while the rest of the employees were either helping Nintendo with other projects, or are, in fact, developing another game silently. Anyone else who watched the credits is welcome to chime in! Do you think Retro Studios is working on another game or just assisting other Nintendo projects? |
It is known that Retro has hired staff members from Naughty Dog – well known for creating the Uncharted series –, id Software and the now-defunct companies Midway Austin and Vigil Games, the latter known for creating the Darksiders series.
It's rumored that Retro Studios split the staff into two team and the smaller team was working on DKC:TF. I'm surprise that Nintendo hasn't unveiled the second game Retro is working on with all the bad press and financial results. At the same time Nintendo is set to have a big E3 2014, that's probably going when we hear more about the Second game by Retro most likely a Wii U Metroid game.

Hey, it works for Crytek. Crysis 3 barely had any game-play but it did have long walks through an INCREDIBLE looking shell of a ruined NYC. More enemies and events would have detracted from the game's focus. I expect Crysis 4 to do away with game-play entirely.
That's the bar Nintendo is trying to reach. Rumor has it that the game-pad screen will be in dedicated "petting mode", which allows you to brush, stroke, and whorl the fur of the characters--IN REAL TIME.
