  • Donkey Kong Country Returns HD

Description

Jump, roll, and stomp through Donkey Kong Island in 2D platforming action Help Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong recover their precious banana hoard from the villainous Tiki Tak Tribe! Stomp enemies, blast through barrels, and ride rockets and mine carts (and even Rambi the rhino) in 80 levels across nine worlds. Play the game as it was first designed for the Wii™ system, or reduce the difficulty for extra hearts and other goodies to make your journey a little easier. This barrel-blasting adventure is visually enhanced in HD for the Nintendo Switch™ system and includes the extra levels from the Nintendo 3DS™ version! Team up with a friend and take on the whole game as Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong Pass a Joy-Con™ controller to a buddy and take on the Tiki Tak Tribe as DK and Diddy in two-player local play. Pelt foes with Diddy’s Peanut Popgun and hover using his Barrel Jet, and slam bad guys into submission with DK’s Ground Pound—or just Barrel Roll right through them. Work together to reclaim those bananas by the bunch!

  • Donkey Kong Country Returns HD for Nintendo Switch
Platform: Nintendo Switch
A Timeless Classic Gets the HD Treatment It Deserves! Donkey Kong Country Returns HD on Nintendo Switch is everything I hoped for and more. This is one of the best platformers of all time, now beautifully remastered in high definition—and it looks absolutely fantastic. The updated visuals breathe new life into every level, from the lush jungles to the blazing volcanoes. Everything feels more vibrant, sharper, and smoother than ever before. The gameplay holds up incredibly well. It’s that perfect blend of challenging platforming, clever level design, and tight controls. Whether you’re blasting out of barrel cannons, dodging giant boulders, or riding a rocket through a maze of danger, every moment is packed with excitement and creativity. It’s tough in all the right ways—never unfair, but always pushing you to get better. The HD version includes both single-player and two-player local co-op, which makes it a blast to play with friends or family. Diddy Kong’s jetpack adds a nice layer of strategy and makes it easier for new players to keep up. Whether you’re a longtime fan or totally new to the series, there’s a ton of fun here. One of the biggest highlights is the soundtrack—those iconic, remixed tunes hit all the right nostalgic notes while still feeling fresh and exciting. Combined with the new visual polish and buttery-smooth performance on Switch, it makes for a truly premium experience. This is Donkey Kong at his absolute best. Fun, fast-paced, and full of heart. Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is a must-play for platformer fans and an essential part of any Switch library. Nintendo knocked it out of the park with this one! ... show more

  • Almost a must-have (if you find it on sale)
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Amazing game, super fun and replayable. Highly recommend a Pro controller, otherwise your thumbs will take a beating. Got it on sale, don't know if I'd pay full price for it ($60).

  • Great Game
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Fantastic Fun game nothing 1 player and 2. Some levels though best to play as one player

  • AWESOME!
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Donkey Kong Country Returns is a fantastic remaster of a platforming gem. It retains the charm, challenge, and creativity of the original while fixing its biggest flaw: motion controls. It may not reach the sheer polish of Tropical Freeze, but it’s a worthy adventure that stands tall in the Donkey Kong legacy. The two-player co-op mode is still chaotic fun. While it can be a bit tough to coordinate, it adds a layer of hilarity and teamwork that's great for couch play. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the jungle, this one’s worth the climb. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for challenging and fun gameplay! ... show more

  • Fun game
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Great game, it keeps the classic vibe of the SNES games but with a new 3d look. I got it after the new update that Nintendo put out so it looks better playing it on my switch 2 and you have dixie kong also added. I think the price could be lower considering how old it is (originally released on the wii) but other than that it's a good one to add to your collection of games ... show more
