As for Donkey Kong, EAD is working on the next Donkey Kong game, so don't worry. All I know is that it's a platformer, but I don't know if it will be like the original DK or like Donkey Kong Country. My educated guess says it will be a DKC game (maybe 3D movement like DK64, maybe 2D movement like SNES games, who knows?). Miyamoto did say it will be "3D meets 2D", so I'm hoping it will actually be Donkey Kong Country 4...
And since the original DKC games were my favorite platforms and had about 100 levels each...This could be Kongasm! Imagine...200 or more 3D rendered levels of smoothly animated DKC gameplay, with new moves (I hope you can punch this time like in DK64) and animals and stuff! *Gamefreak goes giddy with anticipation*
I'm also hearing two rumors about DK Racing. 1. Rare is converting it to a racing game based on their Saberman or whatever series, and 2. EAD has taken over development.

I need this game. The DKC games were *excellent* (some of Rare's best work) and I'd love a new version with the same fast-paced, atmospheric gameplay... I just hope they can have music somewhere near as brilliant as the originals. *suddenly has urge to listen to Bramble Scramble or the haunted woods music from DKC2*

go get some songs from OcRemix's site, they are different yet very true to the original, awsome awsome stuff

that could be very interesting if done right.
even if it is only a mini game or bonus game inside a new DKC game.

QuoteYeah, Rare is using the engine for their racing game. I just hope Nintendo didn't drop this project, it looked interesting from the first trailer released.

there have been lots of rumors lately about mario 128 and how it may be a 2d sidescroller like super mario brothers
i dont know if that is true but that is what i really would like to see- a sidescrolling mario brothers game once again

Why do they do this? I guess they see this method as having more value than flat-out re-releasing the old games. Whether or not there is actually more value, I don't know. It is certainly more fun, though.

As for the music in the new DK game...Yeah, DKC had one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard in a game. But, Nintendo does have some of the best composers in the industry, people like Koji Kondo and Kenji Yamamoto. And Miyamoto really believes in the importance of music, and he is really fond of Rare's style with with DK series. So I don't think they are going to stray too far from Rare's formula. Plus, look at the recently launched http://www.donkeykongcountry.com ... That webside reeks of Rare-ness... I think that's enough proof that there are sticking with the Rare style, or else they wouldn't have launched that site...
Hopefully, they will simply remix all of the old tracks from the DKC games for the new game. Listen to the jungle theme remix in Super Smash Bros. Melee, it's quite excellent and hopefully the new game will have music like that.

This is very dissapointing, I want DKC 2 & 3 for GBA. Loved 2 and only rented 3 once. Give us the ones they haven't ported at all yet. Or else I'll threaten to go back to my former evil rom playing ways
Though I'll give it credit for the mid game save feature and the candy dance mini game. Better luck on the next one.

Hope N hasn't decided that with FZero and GBP coming in soon that they've fired all the bullets in the GC pea-shooter without much change and will hold their cards until next gen.

If you do, that would be a fantastic remake. I would love to see over 50 levels of madness as Mario ascends latters, jumps from platforms, and maybe even solve puzzles just to get to that kidnapped princess Donkey Kong is holding hostage. One he gets to her, DK whisks her away and thus; another stage starts. All the while, DK sets up obstacles that impedes our hero.
Just wondering, the hero was called Jumpman. He's the same as Mario, right?
Post by: Gamefreak on June 03, 2003, 01:34:28 AM
Yeah Jumpman is the same as Mario...

Here's hoping they are deving a new dkc and mario bros/world right now while a minimal team is working on the ports, would be nice to have new ones either in time for x-mas of early next year.

It's not your imagination. You're just in the Matrix.
