You should probably check in more detail rather than take my word for it, but I've read that you can hack the wii part of the wii-u, so you can still do wii homebrew and (probably) wii backups.

Don't know about the wii-u part though.

Based on the last two rows, I'm pretty sure that's nothing to do with what a kid thinks ;)

Is the controller actually made of metal?

I guess it is a classic controller shaped like a Gamecube controller, rather than an actual Gamecube controller.

I am. Looks fun. Never really played online shooters before so this will be new.

It does look a bit limited to begin with (5 maps and 1 online mode to begin with) but with free updates later. I think it's Nintendo trying to be smart. Rather than having the small player base spread over different modes everyone is together to begin with. Or I guess it can be viewed as Nanny Nintendo controlling our fun.

It looks good, but again Nintendos lack of voice comms kills any interest.

A team game, where plans and like are rather useful... with no ability to communicate. It just baffles me.

(I do have a teamspeak server, but I imagine attempting to use that would be somewhat tricky

It's because everything needs to be kid-friendly and having something built into the game that allows angry teenagers to tell people exactly what graphic sex acts they're going to perform on their mothers doesn't fit with that policy. I'd be surprised if you ever see voice chat on a Nintendo platform for that reason alone.

Yeah, but they got away with implementing that by making sure it never actually works.

Fair enough, I wasn't aware of that. Though in typical Nintendo fashion it's weird and half-arsed.

I haves the Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze game.

A confession: I once slept with someone's ... No, hang on, the confession was that I've never played any of Rare's SNES games.

Ooo, I did play that gameboy game where DK climbs up pegs. That was brill. King of the Swingers it might have been called or something.

Hey, I went into Ashby today and walked past the offices where Ultimate Made the Game were based. True story that. These are all true stories. I'm sharing too much. I might even post about that strange rash on my ... *snip*

Is that the same game that's on the 3DS or was that something different? Either way, that was a hard game. Harder on the Wii apparently... So maybe it isn't the same game then?

Tropical Freeze is the Wii U sequel to the Wii (and later on 3ds) game Donkey Kong Country Returns.

I don't really like them because I don't like the controls.

What's wrong with the controls? As far as I could see it was just a standard platformer with jump, directions and special moves.

Or did the Wii have waggle controls? I can see how that would be annoying.

The WiiU hasn't got any waggle controls. This is just typical Mario-esq fare with about the right inertia. The controls are absolutely fine. Left/right, jump, grab. It ain't the most difficult moveset yet he can combine it for a range of moves quite well.

Plus it's a rather nice platformer from the few levels I've played tonight.

DKC Tropical Freeze is an incredibly good game, 100% completion from me, even though it did make me tear my hair out somewhat at times. (The posts must be further back in this thread somewhere.....)

Utterly sumptuous to look at too, wonderful music and sounds, lots of gorgeous little touches all the way through.

The K-O-N-G levels are a serious challenge.

My issue wasn't with the I out method but the movement.

Feels a little bit unresponsive. I don't like the jumping arc at all, and it just doesn't feel very nice to control.

This is obviously a highly subjective matter that is also tricky to pin down specifically what the issues are in words.

Was Donkey Kong Country always this absolutely fantastic?

I've played not a one. Ever. Donkey Kong himself is brilliantly realised. He's fun, he's ace, he emotes, he's got a corkin' wee face on him, he bangs his hands on the floor, he's just awesome. Who knew.

I bought the original DKC for my SNES back in the day, and it mesmerised me at the time. (It had a battery backup in the cart to save your progress, which was cool. Very expensive though, £59.99 IIRC, and that was a fuckton of money to me back then, but I still felt it was reasonable considering the majesty of the game.)

TBH I lost track of the (hnnngh) 'franchise' all the way from the SNES right up to the Wii-U, and picked it up again with DKC Tropical Freeze.

DKC Tropical Freeze was like an instantaneous timewarp to twenty years ago, it's that good, it fired up the same synapses in my brain that had me loving the original so much. Even though it doesn't technically impress to the same degree as the original did perhaps - (although I'd say DKCTF is one of the finest looking and sounding games I've witnessed in many years, because it's not all about the polygon count, and it does run at a flawless 720p@60FPS which gives it that gorgeous feel) - I'd definitely put it very near the top of my gaming experiences of the last decade.

If you like DKCTF then definitely get Rayman Legends as well, because that's improbably wonderful too.

DKC also served up one of my favourite pieces of videogame music ever. Remember this was all generated by the SNES's internal sound chip, and wasn't spooled off a CD or suchlike.

You tried any of the 'K' levels in DKCTF then? They're quite tricky :D

I've only just got to world 2 so I'm not exactly rushing through it but already I think I'm enjoying it more than, say, Super Mario 3D World. Mind you I haven't played the New Super Mario which it probably has more in common with.

Ain't it bloody difficult though? In a good way. I've died a shit ton and yet it hands out extra lives like candy.

The music and graphics are top notch too. Especially the music which is glorious. And secrets levels? It has more in common with Super Mario World than SM3DW ever did with its linear level progression.

I can't be happier with this at the minute. It's perfect for dipping in and out of.

Have I played Rayman: Legends? Was that the first of the new style drawings? If so, I completed it on the Vita and probably raved about it in the Vita thread cause it was ace best. If you're on about the latest one (that had the demo with the rock music level) then I haven't played that one but I hear it's more of the same. I think I'd be best doing one platformer and then doing something entirely different for a while before trying another. You can get burned out even with amazing games.

Donkey Kong is so fucking joyous it hurts. Grassland Groove was such a pleasure to play through I thought a puppet Simba was going to be held out at the end of the level. What a fab little level.

What 'difficulty level' are you playing it on? (It's not an official difficulty level in that you select it before you play, you can simply choose how much you want to accomplish in each level.)

Getting through the levels isn't too challenging, but if you want to step it up a notch, collect all the K-O-N-G letters and puzzle pieces on every level, and find all the secret levels too :)

That then opens up each island's special 'K' level, and ultimately the secret island at the end of the game.

But yes, you're quite right, 'joyous' is entirely the right word for this game. I much preferred it to Super Mario 3D World, to be honest.

Be prepared for some serious (but fair!) teeth-gnashing difficulty as you work your way forwards though, especially if you're getting all the K-O-N-G letters, puzzle pieces, and then moving onto the 'K' level at the end of each island.

I can normally get the KONG on my play through but the puzzle pieces are a nightmare. Some are hidden behind a single banana to trigger something off. I don't just whisk off to the end as I'll keep stabbing away until I've got as much as I can find. It's so fab I'll take my time to explore or I'd just be flying through to the end which is less fun than 'doing' the level properly.

I've just been doing some paperwork for five minutes whilst playing the music for the first level over and over. It's that good. I love the real instrument sounds you can just tell whoever was playing that music was having a fucking blast performing it.

I think you should stop playing that game.

When I was playing through the trickier levels (and some of them are REALLY tricky if you're determined to get all the KONG letters and puzzle pieces), there were times when I was actually writing letters to the developer in my head, complaining about Design Choice A or Level Design B, and suchlike.

On more than one occasion I had to go and do something else for a while instead, such was my RAGE.

But then, I'd come back to it with a clear head, and I'd get past the section or level in question, and I'd feel such jubilation, and I'd cheerfully carry on.

The thing is, as hair-pullingly, teeth-grindingly frustrating as it is at times, it's also scrupulously fair, there are no random elements, the collision detection is perfect and consistent, there are no crazy cameras to contend with - etc etc.

It is an unusually stiff challenge though, especially if you've got used to how games tend to work these days, whereby a simple grind will get through stuff in the end - DKCTF doesn't work like that, you have to put in enough of a skilful performance to get through the section in question, or it will simply kill you - forever.

LISTEN TO THE MUSIC.

WATCH THE DANCING TREES.

LISTEN TO THE KEY CHANGES (there's 5 of them) (FOR ONE LEVEL) (THIS MUSIC IS NEVER REPEATED AGAIN) (AMAZE).

WATCH THE DANCING GIRAFFES.

Did you actually read the review or no?
