As a fan of Donkey Kong 64 (it was the first non pc video game I owned and now can see a lot of its flaws) the prospect of a 3d DK game is really exciting for me even though it would be quite different. Though I have very low expectations of such a thing happening.

A 2d DK game would also be really nice. Tropical Freeze is amazing so no issues with me there.

Wasn't the rumor that it's 2.5d? Like Metroid: Other M?



Just give me Metroid Prime 4 and I'll be happy.

And Eternal Darkness 2.

Ohh was it that. I have not kept up with rumors too much as I prefer a surprise but when hearing 2.5 I only thought of it as a game in 3d played in 2d like Tropical freeze

It would be kind of weird for Nintendo to switch which team is working on that type of DK game and not have some kind of significant change. If it is still just a side scroller game like Returns and Tropical Freeze then I don't get why they moved it from Retro anyway. Nintendo internal teams seem to be more focused on reinventing the wheel as often as possible so if they are making a DK game I'd imagine it will be considerably different than TF and Returns.

Hoping for the best, expecting the worst



Not expecting much at all. Would love for this to be as good, if not better than their E3 2017. But I wouldn't count on it. We'll see, though.
