Retro ported Tropical freeze to Switch.
Retro historically is amazing, but 2014 was their last game at an 83 meta. I can't help but be skeptical. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Except Rare has actually released games in the last 5 years. The only thing Retro has in common without Rare is making extra games in Donkey Kong Country, a series that Rare created.
When Rare created DKC, it was a cutting edge game series that blew minds and ruled the latter part of the 16-bit generation. When Retro made their extra games, it was neither cutting edge, mind blowing, or industry leading; it was a throwback whose greatest strength was memories of the original trilogy.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
Rare may have released games in the last 5 years but at best their recent titles have been mediocre. Rare used to be one of the best developers on the planet, maybe even the best back in the N64 days. Rare is a shell of their former self.
What Rare and Retro share in common, is they used to be a great developers... over a decade ago. Now they are both huge disappointments.

I just want another fun adventure game like 64. Yooka laylee is a blast (playing it for the first time currently) and shows me, plus Odyssey, that games like that can still be amazing. I want a new 3d Donkey Kong adventure!
