Donkey Kong Country Returns

Brilliant game one of the best 2d platformers ive played up there with super mario world and the original donkey kong country absolutely essential wii game

Firstly i wouldn't reccommend this for very young children as it is a very challenging game. I grew up on 2d platformers and for your average gamer i'd say the difficulty is good because as it is challenging' it's never impossible and you will keep trying until eventually pass that tricky section.
One of the best Wii games of 2010.

the graphics, gameplay, atmosphere and classic music from the original snes game has been revitalised and it looks STUNNING. The only minor downside is that you can't tag to Diddy in single player but they've made Donkey Kong faster than the original anyway. This is the best game I've played on the Wii, better than Zelda or Mario personally. Thankyou Retro Studios for picking up where Rare left off!

Donkey kong hasn't had much luck lately, his more recent outings haven't exactly been top quality. Donkey Kong County returns is a great comeback for the Nintendo Gorilla. Anyone who has played the brilliant new super Mario Bros will feel right at home with Donkey Kong Country Returns, the aim of the game is to make it across the stages and worlds collecting collectebles, simple as that. The worlds are varied enough to keep your interest, along with some gameplay twists such as rocket barrels, crashing waves and the frustrating mine carts. Speaking about frustration, the game can get difficult, infuriatingly difficult, however for the younger or inexperienced gamers there is a little help in the auto play feature, where the game will take control for you, getting you through those tricky parts.
I can't recommend this game enough, whether your a fan of Donkey's past adventures or a newcomer, great Wii game!

If you enjoyed Donkey Kong Country on the SNES then you'll love this. It's a similar, updated and tweeked version of the classic with improved graphics, better game play and much more to do. The story is similar and as you go through the 8 different worlds, all of which have 6 levels, a boss and a bonus level, you'll have to improve your skill and gather hundreds of bananas, KONG letters and puzzle pieces and to add to the vastness of the game, it has a time challenge for each level.

The improvement not only comes in the form of graphics but moves and added upgrades such as riding barrells through the sky. It's a complexed yet enjoyable game that brings back Rambi the Rhino and mine karts.

I've not played Mario Galaxy 2 yet (which i hear is awesome) but in my opinion, this game has everything and it's huge. Plenty of hours of fun ahead of you. Nostalgic yet new. Go ahead, you will not be disappointed.
