About this product

Product Information

Gamers take control of Nintendo's simian superstar and his friends as they try to fend off a group of Viking-like animal invaders in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. These Snowmad warriors have sent a deep chill through DK Island, turning the once tropical paradise into an icy nightmare, and it's up to Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, and Cranky Kong to save the day. Players run, jump, swim, launch themselves from barrels, and occasionally ride Rambi the rhinoceros through a variety of stages set on five islands filled with bananas, coins, and adventure.<br><br>Each sidekick character has a unique skill to help Donkey Kong on his adventure, with Diddy using his barrel jetpack to soar through the air and under water, Dixie's hair serving as a propeller, and Cranky's cane helping the apes bounce over hazardous spikes. Tropical Freeze is the first new Donkey Kong Country title for the Wii U, and it makes use of the system's processing power to offer dynamic levels and a rotating camera, while multiplayer fans can break out their GamePad and enjoy some local co-op action. Gamers can also see how they stack up compared to the rest of the world thanks to online leaderboards.

    One of the Wii U greats!

    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 got bored very quickly

    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.

  • May be a bit hard for little kids

    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.

  • A solid entry in the Donkey Kong series.

    A very good entry in the Donkey Kong Country series. The graphics are on par with any other Wii U game. The game play is what brings this game together: it has the typical platforming game play but it offers something unique in the form of the special moves and powers that can be performed with the different characters teamed up with donkey Kong.

  • Return to classic game difficulty, and level design.

    This game is tough. Really tough, but it’s not cheap, the level design is coherent and amazing. Graphics are great and the music is some of the best music I have ever heard. My favorite Wii U game of all time highly recommend.
