japanesenintendo.com/2020/09/15/nintendo-apply-for-8-new-trademarks/ >The final trademark (商願2020-109000) is for DONKEY KONG COUNTRY which originally saw a trilogy on the SNES, all developed by Rare, with recent games developed by Retro Studios. The last entry was 2018’s Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze on Nintendo Switch, a port of the Wii U game, which added Funky Kong. >The Donkey Kong Country trademark is for 45 products and services including for “home video game program”, “downloadable video game program”, “smartphone program”, and related.
>home video game program please don't be another rerelease >downloadable video game program switch online shit, assuredly >smartphone program pure shit regardless of what it is this all sounds terrible already

I wish they would make an art book of these renders.
They are incredible
Christian Nelson
What would they even re-release? Just Returns?
Michael Bell
>no new Wario Land trademark GOD
Connor Fisher
Donkey Kong 3D collection featuring 64, Jungle Beat, and Returns, explicitly omitting Tropical Freeze.
Cameron Carter
What's the matter, pigskin? Don't like our ADHD simulators with Wario's face slapped on?
Luke Jackson
Returns 3D (for the extra content) on decent hardware AND an analog stick sounds actually good Wario Land is not Wario Ware dumbass
Leo Hall
Reading comprehension, dumbass
Eli Brown
Agreed, fellow art book bro
Connor Ward
It's probably: >DKC2 & 3 on the Switch's SNES catalogue >More DK characters in the mobile games like Mario Kart Tour or DrMario World I could see a re-release of Returns 3D on the Switch honestly. I want a DK64 Remake/Sequel
only because i know nintendo is retarded and not buying it will make them think nobody wants a new DK game
Levi Hughes
More like >The Donkey Kong KONGllection >DKC1, 2, 3 >$60

Oh boy I can't wait to spend all my hard earn coronavirus money on the Donkey Kong Masters
Isaac Williams
I can understand Nintendo being sheepish in making Metroid content even if I don't agree with it but Donkey Kong is legitimately one of their biggest IP's that consistently make money being behind non other then Zelda.
Why for all these years it's been relegated to the second-party support?
Adrian Thompson
what if that ice cream was my penis instead haha
Adrian Brown
Miyamoto is still salty after all this time and will not let those filthy apes set foot in Nintendo of Japan
Daniel King
>See prerender, oh what is this? >Possible new DK content >Turns out to be literally nothing. Wow, again thanks Zig Forums, I know I don't say it very much but I'm so glad you guys make these threads so I can get my hopes up slightly only to be fucking punched in the balls AGAIN.
Xavier Morales
They have a hard time running their series+new stuff as it is. Those second parties have to be used for something.
Angel Martinez
DKC renders still look good.
Caleb Reyes
But Retro is both busy and a total mess right now, and Rare is a shadow of their former selves and are under Microsoft regardless. So what could they even do with Donkey Kong?
Juan White
They've never really known what to do with Donkey Kong after Rare divorced them and Retro has been exiled to the Phazon mines for the next 10 years so it's just kind of sat there while they figure something out. We'll presumably see what they arrived at within a year or two.
Companies have to file trademarks for things they aren't using but plan to use for merchandising etc or risk losing them.
And yes I know they specifically said Country. But I bet this is just Nintendo nostalgia milking so every game or product regardless is going to be called Donkey Kong Country now.

>Super Mario World >Donkey Kong Wor- errr Country! bit lazy innit
