So, I finally broke down and ordered a Wii U (eBay had a one day sale). The game that made me want one was
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. I loved what Retro Studios did to update the
Metroid series (my favorite video game franchise) so I was excited to hear they were taking over the
Donkey Kong Country series. I put off buying
DKC: Returns until earlier this year and fell in love with it. I'm reticent to call video games art, but Retro Studios makes me question that position. What I've seen of the sequel, it looks gorgeous graphically, and the clever level design seems to be even more clever.
So, here's the thread to talk about the game. Have you played it? Do you love it? Hate it? Is it too challenging? Is it worth buying a Wii U for? Share your thoughts.
