The whole time I couldn't help but think that Nintendo had once again deprived us of DK's greatest enemy returning to his role as main villain.

I got a Switch 2 and I'm getting this game soon I think to sink into some single-player goodness on Switch 2. I have rewards points at a couple of stores so I could even get a discount on it.



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 161 million (was 73 million, then 96 million, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million, then 151 million, then 156 million)

PS5: 122 million (was 105 million, then 115 million) Xbox Series X/S: 38 million (was 60 million, then 67 million, then 57 million. then 48 million. then 40 million)

Switch 2: 120 million (was 116 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

Now that I've beat it, I've gotta say, for me this is Nintendo's best game since... far out, possibly since Mario Odyssey way back in 2017.

It's just brimming with creativity and sheer joyous energy. Smashing stuff never gets old, and the game constantly introduces cool new ideas to keep things fresh, breaking new ground (heh) for the series while simultaneously honouring its past.

EPD Tokyo has hit it out of the park once again.

They revived 3D Mario, they revived Donkey Kong, what franchise will they save next?

Please be it Banjo-Kazooie (a man can dream).

With what's happening at Microsoft lately, maybe we'll get lucky and Microsoft will put it's IPs up for sale, and Nintendo can buy the Rare IPs including Banjo-Kazooie. Nintendo has treated Banjo-Kazooie better than Microsoft anyway, especially in Smash.
