If I had to pick out one glaring fault with Donkey Kong Country Returns, it would be the lack of classic controller support. Old school gamers will be disappointed that it wasn't included, but will be able to adapt to the new controls. However, the rest of the game really fires on all cylinders; dare I say, better than New Super Mario Bros. It's pretty amazing to see Retro Studios improve on Rare's original classic, both in game design and challenge to the player. If you have a love for platformers or are simply looking for a new challenge, don't hesitate to pick up Donkey Kong Country Returns. It also makes for an excellent gift for all ages due to the entertaining feel and increasing difficulty at the game progresses. Highly Recommended!

the game was new.
the ship was fast.
the description was right.
it's a nice game who everyone wants to play

This game is really good, as usual for Retro Studios. My only problem is the control scheme. You need to shake the controller a lot for things that could easily be mapped to a button. But it's still a really solid, great looking game. Get it, it's cheap.

super jeu mon garcon l,adore et joue tout le temps avec. tres bon site internet et bon service merci beaucoup

Très très bien expliqué. Un bon prix à l'achat. Le jeu est facile pour tous et très amusant!je le recommande à tous!

It's one of my favorite Wii games that I own. If you don't already own it you should go out any buy it. You won't regret it.

Fun game. Plays just like the old SNES game. A lot of the levels are creative, exciting and challenging.

One star removed because it doesn't work with the classic controller since it gets annoying to have to shake the controller to perform certain moves.

Mon ado de 14 ans avait demandé ce jeu et Super Mario Bros pour Noël. Elle se dit très satisfaite des deux. Elle a fait jouer ses cousins de 5 et 6 ans qui se sont bien amusés aussi.

loved the game and was super impressed how fast it came, i think it was 4 business days! thanks amazon!

This latest version of the game takes it to a whole new level. It is a great game to pick up and play and also has plenty of challenge for the aficionado. The bonus level play is difficult enough to appeal to real hardcore adventure gamers while the general playability means all can enjoy.
Only a few small drawbacks. (very small) The co-operative play is a bit difficult to get used to especially to the more amateur consumer and the combo shake and button control can be a little difficult to get used to.
On the up side the backgrounds are brilliantly conceived and I loved the different levels of perspective DK played on. The bosses are challenging but fair for the most part and mini-games were not as difficult as previous versions. A "super guide" is available if you get hopelessly stuck and it is helpful when you are just learning the game.
Overall I must say that Nintendo has created a winner with DK Country Returns. This game has something for everyone and I definitely would recommend it to any fan of adventure gaming.
