Wow! Some people suddenly pretend to hate Donkey Kong's look and personality he's been having since Donkey Kong Country just to defend his new, modern, inferior redesign. 

Also Shigeru Miyamoto's excuse that they changed his look to make him more expressive sounds bullshit since his DKC was already quite expressive. While I often respect Miyamoto, sometimes he makes bullshit claims. Like when he claimed that he couldn't use his idea of Mario riding an animal at NES because of console's limitation while Hudson's Adventure Island games at NES managed to do that without an issue. 

I bet they've changed him because his DKC look and persona is "too masculine and outdated for the current year" since current Nintendo tries pleasing investors.

Nintendo would be more honest if they admitted that they changed him to make him more marketable for merchandise like other Nintendo's popular franchises that focus a lot at merchandise.

And yeah, I hate Donkey Kong's change both at his look and personality. Maybe I could tolerate and get used to his look's change. But drastically changing his personality too to the worse? I can't accept that.

They really jestermaxxed him with that one.

Also I've recently discovered that the HD port of the first Donkey Kong Country Returns is trash, especially since it was rushed made by a small shitty company that makes nothing but shitty low budget games. Probably because said company was the cheapest for Nintendo. Meanwhile the Switch port of Tropical Freeze was made by Retro Studio themselves, which is why it's a great, faithful port.

Donkey Kong has always looked kinda repulsive, before and after the change. I don't like monkeys, they give me uncanny valley vibes

Just like they did with him at Super Mario Bros movie where they've turned him into a daddy complex whining bitch. They could at least make him like at the gag manga where he's slightly cutesy designed and goofy while still keeping his cool attitude from the DKC games.

DKC Returns were the 3DS games, weren't they? I imagine that they'd need to take far more technical liberties to port something like that to the Switch than for something from a more recent and comparable platform like the Wii U.

DKC Returns was originally a Wii game, which was a great game except the gimmick motion controls that make it annoying. Fortunately that was fixed at the 3DS port (made by Retro Studio themselves) which not only was impressive for 3DS' standards and limitations but also replaced motion controls with traditional, proper controls. My complain is for the shitty Switch port that even has longer loading times than the fucking Wii version!
