IGN:

Donkey Kong Bananza is a truly groundbreaking 3D platformer, with satisfying movement, powerful abilities, impressive destructible environments, and clever challenges that all come together in complete harmony to create Nintendo’s first Switch 2 masterpiece.

this is great for nintendo (duh). this game being a critical darling is huge. for a 3d mario game the reviews are less important (even though they always get stellar reviews anyway) but for a DK game, this will get people - including myself - who were on the fence to buy in.

huge for the NS2 era to have this game be revered. this console is off to a strong start. if they nail metroid prime and the pokemon game this thing will be unstoppable

Guys

I got sick this week. The week the Donkey Kong comes out

I also got sick the week Smash Ultimate came out and was sick when Pokémon Scalet/Violet came out.

ITS LIKE THE UNIVERSE DOESNT WANT ME TO PLAY VIDEOGAMES

FCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKK

Let’s ignore the fact that I got sick because I went to 4 concerts in 5 days and pretend the universe is screwing me over when ever there is a game I’m 10/10 hyped for

Oh wow. They actually found a good fit (at least looks-wise) for Zelda and Link for the upcoming live-action movie. I haven't heard of these actors before but in terms of their looks I can definitely rock with this.

DK Bananza was obviously gonna be a classic, these scores aren’t surprising to me in the slightest
