That was unexpected. I'm not too thrilled about it, but I'm looking forward to see what this game will play like. I enjoy Miyamoto's creativity going too far, but I don't know about anybody else. Though I was hoping for the Donkey Kong Island rumors to be confirmed.

Also if you look at Rare's site, the DK GBA titles are finally being published by THQ, and they no longer feature Donkey Kong characters.

Diddy Kong Pilot is now Banjo Pilot
and Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers is now It's Mr. Pants.
There are also rumours that Donkey Kong Racing is now Sabreman Stampede.

Wow, there's new smiles

My guess is that it'll come packaged with the game.

I hope it's comes packaged with the game, like Hey You Pikachu did with the mic. And I imagine it will since having it sold seperatly will only turn people away.

And it'd be pretty stupid to not package it with the game if it's required to play it.

After looking around, this isn't a popular idea.

Well, time to see what Namco could do with the DK franchise. Namco will either do a very good job or kill DK.

The horror...
If DK were to be a different genre, then racing or FPS would be cool. But music??

Considering Miyamoto was a big fan of Samba, it doesn't really hit me as a suprise that this move has been taken. Oh, by the way, hi I'm new. (Err.. actually i registered here a while ago but forgot my pw but thats a different story).

C'mon, have you no faith? Nintendo is loyal to it's customers, so if its so crappy that it will kill DK, they'll never release it. Ever, no matter how much you beg and plead, they will never do it. Ever.

It'll probably be an average game at the least.

What do you mean, "start"? He hasn't been in his own original video game for four years!

You'd rather see a DK FPS? There's something wrong with you.

There's just something funny about a Donkey Kong FPS. Then again I laughed at a Metroid FPS, but still a Donkey Kong FPS soulds doesn't sound right, though it would probably be amusing to see.

After for years we get this.

Donkey Konga site

For some reason, that site haunts my dreams at night.

On the other hand Donkey Konga looks really good, but I don't know about the gameplay. Then again it will probably surprise us and turn out to be a very good game. I mean, people thought Metroid Prime was going to suck when they changed it into a First Person Shooter right? But it turned out to be one of the best games on GCN.

Looking at the first pic, the "story(?)" graphics should be awesome.
