Please have some DKC era music in the game Nintendo (Aquatic Ambiance for one).

That DK redesign doesn't vibe with me as much, but it's also better than the one in MK World so I'll take it .
Game looks like a cool action platformer which I'm glad they went with him basically using his physical prowess to destroy the terrain and torpedoed himself into the ground.

People are gonna pull some crazy moves there !

Anywoo, 3D Mario is obviously coming eventually, people need to chill considering the presentation was mostly focused on the first 3-6 months period. With likely more to be shown for this Holiday season with a presentation this Summer.

I'm assuming 3D Mario will be announced Holiday 2025 with a 2026 release due to the fact that the next movie just got announced a moment ago to be released next year.

Yeah I also really like how kinetic it is, with DK just destroying everything in his path and powering through the world like a force of nature.

The influence of Odyssey is also palpable, which is great as I thought that game was superb.

The lack of a new DK game was one of the Switch's few shortcomings for me, so its awesome to see that finally being remedied on Switch 2.

There seem to be a lot of crocodile skeletons with one bulging eye. Could K. Rool be returning in some capacity?

Or a Easter egg showcasing they are dead and gone.

I think there’s a high probability this game started as the much rumored Odyssey 2 for Switch, before Nintendo said they really needed a DK game again and it was reworked and moved to S2.

3D DK Platformer has been rumoured for a long time: Rumour: The Next Donkey Kong Is Being Developed By The Super Mario Odyssey Team | Nintendo Life

I doubt they scrapped a 3D Mario game for a DK game lol.

I think there is a near 0% chance that this is the case. 

That would suck. -_-
