Donkey Kong Country Hits to the 3DS in May


Posted on April 20, 2013 by Jason Nason

Donkey Kong Country Returns, which was released for the Nintendo Wii back in 2010, is being re-released for the Nintendo 3DS this May. The game is not only being rereleased but also rebalanced for the portable.

With the 3DS’ focus on casual gameplay the challenge levels of some levels have been made a little easier with some tweaks. Whereas in the origianal Wii title you were given two hearts for Donkey and Diddy Kong, you will have three hearts each in the 3DS title to allow you to take more hits. Another new addition to the game is the addition of a portable DK barrel, allowing you to call upon your partner whenever you choose rather than tossing a DK barrel when not needed, thus wasting it.Read More

As if getting to return to an all new adventure in the world of A Link To The Past wasn’t enough recent Zelda news, gamers can also get ready for the upcoming release of the Gameboy Color classics Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons on the 3DS Virtual Console. The games seperately focus on two worlds, one of which features Link time traveling, and the other controlling the seasons respectively. Both Capcom developed games will be released on May 30th.

If The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening DX is any indication of the price point for Gameboy Color titles, gamers can expect the two new titles to potentially sell for $5.99 each.
