Super fun game, good for the whole family. Really challenging at times, with a lot of fast paced and gorgeously crafted levels. Great music and characters. If you don’t have the Nintendo Switch or aren’t interested in paying full price for the Switch port of this game, from my research, there’s very little difference except possibly the load times on the Wii U are a bit more. But you can save a lot of $$ buying it on the system it was first designed for and use the cash to save up for exclusive Switch titles when they come out, rather than ports of games like Tropical Freeze which is already great on the Wii U.

I love nintendo and platformers, but I felt no desire to play more than a few levels before putting this game back on the shelf.

Master Donkey Kong’s ground pound and each of his buddy’s unique abilities to navigate diverse island environments like Mangrove swamps, Savannah storms, ocean depths, and the frozen lands of DK Island. The barrel-blasting, mine-carting action of Donkey Kong Country is back, along with a bushel of new features like upgraded underwater swimming, a new “plucking” system, dynamic viewing angles from a rotating camera, and collectables galore. Team up with friends in local 2-player multiplayer* to share in the adventure and reclaim DK Island from a host of wintery baddies and bosses. Key Features Journey through all-new levels that twist, turn and transform in consistently fresh ways. Plus, enjoy spectacular views thanks to the dynamic, rotating camera.

I love playing games with my 5 YO. We finished Kirby Dreamland, and Mario 3D world. This is a bit harder than those games but kiddo doesn't mind. She likes a challenge.
