Nintendo previously tried this crazy idea of putting Retro Studios into their Donkey Kong, and created the masterpiece of platforming called Donkey Kong Country Returns on the Wii. It was not only a return to a highly praised series by famed developer Rare during the SNES era, but a love letter to anyone who likes to jump on enemies and platforms. Retro proved they know how video games work, and why they're fun to play.
The creative director of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze has revealed that Enguarde almost made it into the game.
I'm glad they didn't. I heard he was asking for way too much money to reprise his role as a mascot. Which is ludicrous since everybody knows Rambi is the real star here. Enguarde is just a second stinger at best.
The audacity of this fish! SHAME!!!
