Donkey Kong Bananzais everything I’ve ever wanted.
As Nintendos number two guy, Donkey Kong has had a weird life.
Since the original arcade game, the series has gone through peaks and valleys.
What Im trying to illustrate is that being a Donkey Kong fan is suffering.
It was and it was better than I’d ever dreamed it could be.
Dont get me wrong: a DK platformer from the Mario Odyssey team was already GOTY material for me.
Then there were glimpses of him diving underground and smashing his way through the tunnel with rapid punches.
Rather than masterful duels with Bananza’s many enemies, Donkey Kong just smacks the soul out of them.
Plus they gave him some snazzy dungarees; my guy looks suave.
Thats down to Nintendo somehow nailing exactly what I wanted from the series.
