It's a miserable rainy morning in the UK so what better way to brighten things up than a new Donkey Kong Returns trailer? The Wii reboot of the classic SNES game looks marvellous and is likely to cause nostalgic overload for older gamers when it gets released in November.
What are your memories of the original? I remember being simultaneously amazed by the graphics and put off by the difficulty. It seems like Donkey Kong Returns is equally challenging. Bring it on though. Yes, Nintendo does ruthlessly recycle its franchises but DKR looks like a worthy reinvention. What do you think then? Trailer getting you excited? Or where you too busy playing Doom 2 to even notice the original at the time?
