Nintendo Should Partner With Former Rare Employees to Make a Donkey Kong 64 Sequel on 3DS

GenGAME writes: There’s been an unusually high amount of news in recent months in regards to both current and former Rare employees wishing they could return to that kind of work. Meanwhile, as evidenced by the strong sales of Donkey Kong Country Returns and the fact that Nintendo is porting the game to the 3DS, there’s still a lot of potential for future Donkey Kong games.

As one of the highest rated and best-selling games on the N64, Donkey Kong 64 is just begging to have a sequel made, and the old Rare staff is just the team to do it.

DarkBlood4085d ago

morkendo234085d ago

Not only for 3DS but wii-U as well that'll be day one buy.

I wish they would make a sequel to this game. Donkey Kong 64 was a ton of fun. It's a shame we weren't able to see more of the 3D games.

kirbyu4085d ago

I'd rather them make a remake because I never got to play the original.

Tewi-Inaba4085d ago

Wasn't that good in the grand scheme
I'd rather have a Banjo Kazooie/Toowie remake than DK64
but that's just me

and Banjo Threeie.
I think the whole world will agree when I say we can ignore that Rare made that abomination Banjo on the 360

I don't have any non-Nintendo consoles, so I don't get why everyone hates that game so much. Could you please explain it to me. Was it just that nobody liked how different it was from the N64 games.

Here's an explanation to why Banjo on 360 sucked

Erimgard4085d ago

Summons754085d ago

just-joe4084d ago

Rare can only have permission to make games on Nintendo handhelds, sadly.

Erimgard4081d ago

Rare doesn't own Donkey Kong.

How Many More Victims, Like Garry's Mod, Will Nintendo's Hurtful Crusade Create?

Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."

The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.

i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.

nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.

people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly

mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.

zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.

nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.

its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.

but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.

Nintendo's Massacre Of The 3DS And Wii U Is Finally Complete, Regrettably

Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
