Because Jungle Climber sold like hotcakes.

i'm going to say

i didn't even knew said game existed.

but yeah, you see no one gives a single fuck about donkey kong(character) except for furry porn lovers. nothing about the character or any of the characters have been particulary attractive in terms of desing (and if you tell me rare is good at character desing i should point again how KI2 killed itself with the most generic cast ever made) to a point in wich, just like sonic friends, he has been reduced to "strong-type character" in party games.

They're just using old school DKC.
Which is more important than anything.

Why the hell would it be important at all if it's DKC.
Besides, rare never even invented Donkey Kong in the first place.
I mean sure, DKC was a milestone but it seems like somehow you're forgetting the fact that it won't matter how nintendo uses the franchise.
It's nintendo, as long as it's DK or Mario it will sell one way or another.

Rare didn't invent it, no.
They just made all of the great Donkey Kong games.

They made Donkey Kong worth something more.

I bet that's why this section is so lacking...

It's kinda sad when people say "There hasn't been a *insert series* game in a long time."
How do you know that? Did you check?

Donkey Kong 94 would like to have a word with you

also that wasn't my point originally, my point is that it's still a nintendo franchise, nintendo pretty much can ace the sales on who ever.

Did Rare make Jungle Beat? No.

There's lot's of franchises Nintendo failed to promote.

yeah but you know, as long as you can make another mario/zelda/pokemon game you can just ignore making another IP

I'm guessing that's sarcasm.

Nintendo has made tons of IPs over the years (I should know) from Mole Mania to Frog the Bell Tolls to Nazo no Murasame. The problem is for some reason they never seem to give them much of a chance to shine. These are great games and no one knows about them.

just watch at the last E3:

new zelda
new mario
new kirby
new kid icarus

Yeah well when that new F-Zero game comes out tell me.

Actually you won't have to because I'll be the first to know. My borderline insane Nintendo obsession tells me.

I think that this game is gonna rock. I like to think of it as the NSMBW except with Donkey Kong characters in it. I wonder how it will be. Can't judge til you play.

Nintendo makes plenty of new IPs. They just... never get released stateside. :I

Or they just never finish them at all

I'm looking at you Project H.A.M.M.E.R.
