Update

I live!... Kinda... I don’t really come to Tumblr much anymore and have been kinda busy with some other things.

I’m up to other things both personal and on the internet. If you wanna see my current niche internet endeavor of the now. Check out my Twitter called “Bees In Games” which is all about the different sitings of bees, wasps, hornets in video games. You can check it out here. https://twitter.com/BeesGames

I also am considering moving Awkward Donkey Kong to Twitter potentially. I’ll update you all if that happens.

And lastly, I hope everyone and your loved ones are staying safe in these trying times.

Nintendo should have cancelled Funky Mode and made Leo Luster a character in Tropical Sneeze

when u make it funny joke with a friends.mp4

[ryanribbitys]

lets talk about tropical freeze

ok so like, i get it, haha funny wiiu sucks jokes, yeah sure whatever, but here’s the thing, no matter what the switch gets it will never have the absolute masterpiece that’s “Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze”

the amount of charm, polish, amazing level design, fantastic music, and so much more in this game is through the fucking roof

and nobody fucking played it

ok that’s, a bit of an overstatement but this game got so unfairly ignored and skipped for a couple of reasons

Metroid fans were fucking pissy that retro was making Donkey Kong instead of Metroid, causing some major backflash for this game even existing, which is like, darn?? you got one fantastic game?? the nerve of retro for making a fantastic game?? so thanks everyone for that

DKC:TF was coming out the same year as Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Brothers, and all eyes were sorta on those. Not a lot of people cared about the “silly monkey game that’s killing metroid” vs super Smash brothers

I think there’s just a stigma of 2d platformers like “ooOOOHHH we get so many 2d platformers why should i care”

you should care

tropical freeze is a fucking marvel of a game and literally anyone’s who played it will agree, and it’s a fucking shame it’s so brushed under the rug because it’s like, top ten games material

and hooh boy the music by David Wise in this is HOOh jamming

look, i get it, we’re all on switch and making epic funny wiiu had no games jokes, but please god if you DO have a wiiu, this game is 20 dollars now, try it out please

but also watch this video, it explains what makes the game so fucking good more than i ever could

Hey Guys

Thanks everyone for getting this blog to 1000 followers. 4 years ago, I created this blog because I was reintroduced to the Donkey Kong Country TV show. I’m glad to see that even with my slow reblog time that many of you still followed the page and hopefully got a good laugh out of the awkwardness that has come from the Donkey Kong franchise like I did. 

It really means a lot to me to see something that I thought would maybe have a few followers and then fizzle out become much more than I ever imagined it would be. I plan on reblogging more on this blog soon. I also might share a few things that I’ve been up to on the side but this blog is going to still be about Donkey Kong’s wacky adventures. 

Thanks again and may you be showered in Coconut cream pie.

In the beginning of Donkey Kong Country’s development, Shigeru Miyamoto and the Rare team both drew initial concepts of what they envisioned Donkey Kong to look like in the new game.
