Are you still mad about his redesign?
Are you still mad about his redesign?
Gen X chads remember when DK looked like this. Only millennial Rarefags are mad about this.
he's so cute
Slobbering over a banana (penis) MKUltra programming at its finest. Drink up, goy.
The eyes are too fucking close to each other, they failed to capture the DK from the movie if that's what they were aiming for.
I thought it was a prequel design, he gets his regular tie back by the end probably
I'm much more mad about how shit Anon Babble is about posting now, far worse than before the shutdown, than about DK's redesign.
How do you mean
they failed to capture the DK from the movie
Congrats, you understand now this isn't the movie design.
I'm getting 2 minute wait timers from the captcha.
Oh. Well I'm not.
Get coconut mall'd on, nerdbird.

His face is a lot more cartoony now which would be fine on its own but the fur they gave him looks very shitty.
still mad about the redesign?
I was never mad
This is the most forced "controversy" ever
It's sensible to give him pants so we aren't staring at ape ass the whole game.
Everything about the game just looks like shit. DK, the enemies, the environments. Nothing resembles Donkey Kong in the slightest.
This is a real render by the way. He doesn't look like he wants to be there.
This hurts so much
You can see how unnatural his new face is here. If you try to cover the other DK renders it's still clear that he's smiling.
hes kind of hot..
I'm pretty sure he loses the pants at some point. He wasn't wearing any in the Treehouse footage.
He loses them at the end of the tutorial level.
cute belly
The tongue is weird, the eyes are a little off, and I don't like how the fur looks.
Besides that, not really.
Old news, here's some new DK before/after to complain about.
Cheaper-looking fur
Printed tie emblem instead of embroidered
Everyone who talked about him looking permanently angry makes me think someone at NoA at the very least thought this and they tried to 'fix' his brow, when it was clear that Rare's DKC was always smiling and happy for the most part and his lack of teeth made him more friendly like a muppet. Even with Funky's teeth, it wasn't profound. Bananza DK at worst is akin to pic related, especially if people draw him with the overalls.
Are you still mad
never was
I like it desu.
the slight glimpse we saw months ago in the switch teaser was not the best first impression. Overall I think he' fine now even if my love for the rare design will always be there.
How much is Nintendo paying you? Kek. You are part of the problem.
Is that a lawn mower kart? kino
I'm mad no one has drawn this simian taking a big fat shit
he looks very bad when smiling basically
this desu
Never was, he's so alive!
#notmydk
His game looks like shit too
Not sure why but any time I see the new donkey kong I get a strong feeling of anxiety
Imagine actually caring, or being upset about this pointless bullshit. lmfao.
1980s DK stuck his tongue out like a drooling idiot?
genuine smile in left and middle
fear grimace on the right
I'm fell mad about the teeth and more about his eyebrows
I don't care about the eyes and eyebrows. His cheeks are too round and puffy. That's what's wrong with him. He looks like he's doing bean face.
Look at anyone who looks nervous, it's the same expression. Old DK had a determined look, which is what idiots like 708323263 who larp as old timers misinterpret as being the old DK.
He still looks like a rape ape
Even the low budget cartoon recognized the limitations in the Battletoad scowl eyebrows and turned it into some neutral-shaped fleshy scuba mask that could house more expressive eyes.
I really don't want to be a "OLD THING GOOD NEW THING BAD" guy but that new render is so fucking bad
He looks like he just shat his pants and is trying to awkwardly laugh it off
Meant to say misinterpret as being angry.
Exactly, they had the blueprint for over two decades if his brow was really an issue.
it's not "furry"
it's not "kemono",
It's "Miyamoto".
I can't find the middle render for some reason. I can only find the left one.
No, he looks great in Mario Kart and mostly great in Bananza. A few impressions like the early teaser or poor attempts to recreate old renders like don't do the design justice.
They really want that arcade Donkey Kong smile, for both good and bad that pose entails. The DK Pass looks very goofy, and I don't know if I find it more uncanny or charming.
There's an in-game cosmetics shop where you can spend fossils. Presumably they're taking a page out of Odyssey. I'm going to just keep DK bare naked most likely, but more power to them for including options.
Not Diddy Kong
Imagine being a nintendo fan. Imagine being cursed to only enjoy Ike 5 things. You'd get mad over pointless shit, too.
Yes, I'm mad they went from an improved design to a shitty one for nostalgia points.
It's def grown on me
I'm still more mad at how hard I'm getting blue balled by how many little details in this game implicate K.Rool may be back but I know full well Nintendo is not putting a single kremling in this game. I'm trying so hard to reserve my expectations of not seeing K.Rool again but I'm so fucking Kroc watch pilled over these fucking theories, easter eggs, and small references people have noticed that heavily implicate he might be back.
I think I had the opposite experience Nintendo intended.
See him in the short snippet of Mario Kart gameplay they teased with
Instantly love the design, feel like it's going back to DK's roots. 2D art looks fucking fantastic
See in him action for Bananza
Absolutely fucking hate it, he looks like a fucking retard and the game both doesn't look that interesting and it looks on-par with a Switch 1 game visually despite having apparent performance issues
Nintendo finally upgraded to Toy Story 1 3D tech
I want the business gremlin to stand on his own. Let DK deal with a main bad guy smaller than him for once.
I need bananas tasty banana. Put it I your mouth it comes in denim.
Hard disagree
I don't like the VoidCo apes cause they remind me of the broodals and I fucking hated those rabbit fucks so goddamn much they're my least favorite Mario enemies to date. I hope I never see them again.
Bring back the Kremlings
my kingdom for the kremlings to return
I'm begging you Nintendo.
I found it it's a cut off render from the Mario vs Donkey Kong remake
Anyways as you can clearly see he looks great in this game
No it's sexy.
No. Was never mad to begin with.
Who is this King K. Rool fellow? Surely you must mean Kofounder K. Roolberg.
an improved design
Rare's DK was a product of its time. Primarily one from an era when 3D models were primitive looking and had a limited range of emotions. Obviously Nintendo has attempted to deal with this over the years with that design, but its high time they just let it pass. After all, Rare departed Nintendo almost a quarter century ago and outside of raging 30+ year middle aged manchildren, nobody else cares.
If K.Rool comes back sporting a big CEO aesthetic being the money and brains behind voidco coming in wearing something lookin like Doug Dimmadome or a western oil tycoon I'm gonna flip the fuck out and laugh for 2 weeks straight.
(Fun fact: his legal name is Keith Krudd Rool)
Not mad but I'm never gonna like it
I didn't like Kiddie Kong way back in DKC2 and nu-DK looks just as retarded as he did
I love how Nintendo always gets shit for using the same models but when they make a new one they are attacked relentlessly
If they'd made the new one better instead of worse, maybe people wouldn't be shitting on them
I like it better than the originial
I never was.
You'll get teases at best. I'll believe it when I see him in the flesh.
I think even Nintendo doesn't like the Broodals, they've been memoryholed since.
Donkey Kong never looked like this at any point.
You're worse than BotWfags pretending that game is a successor to LoZ - at least they have nostalgia-bait art to point at. You are just blind.
Rare's DK was a product of its time
...that "time" being 30 years straight?
Obviously Nintendo has attempted to deal with this over the years with that design
They had the opportunity to change the design with Jungle Beat but they kept it basically the same because Nintendo was less retarded back then.
Yes it's either asset flipping or completely ruining the design, there's no in-between, you are very smart.
I'm still horny about his redesign yes
I love new DK so much
the design could have been even better, but they were "forced" to keep him somewhat similar to Rare's abomination so you spergs wouldn't sperg out
that failed anyway because they underestimated how pathetic you subhumans can be, so they really should have gone all out and restored the classic look
Rare's DK had the same problem Sonic has. The brow limits his expressions and moving the brow too much ends up looking weird. I do think they're maybe leaning a bit too heavily on silly expressions to be reposted on social media but aside from that my only real issue is his feather looking fur.
thats a lot of words just to say youre a no brain nigger monkey
I can't stand Rare. The last good DK game was the GB one before they outsourced it to the british for those awful "country" games.
So i'm just glad Nintendo have reclaimed their property and are finally going to do it justice once again.
You're the one getting mad enough to reply in a thread about a thing you don't like.
okay Rarenigger
why do he be having feathers doe
he's Samus Aran's son
(she fucked a normal gorilla)
I was never mad. I always liked it.
the new dk is going to be worse and sell worse than any rare dk game
I'm so glad we can all agree we need to purchase New Thing™ because old thing was bad and never good and Shiny New Thing™ on Shiny New Box™ is the newest betterest thing yet. Thank you fellow Anons!
My Donkey Kong punched beehives while I sprayed insecticide up his asshole.
