WTMG’s Leo Faria: “It’s still a good game. It did not wow me, and I honestly think there are much better games in a similar vein out there (and for a fraction of the price), but Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is a decent remaster of a well-put platformer. I just don’t think that, just like many other recent Switch outings, it justifies its really steep pricetag. You are able to purchase a used copy of Tropical Freeze, a discounted digital copy of Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, and even a month of Nintendo’s Online service in order to play the SNES originals, for the same asking fee. It’s a bit lackluster in terms of polish and additional content. With that being said, if you are a big fan of Donkey Kong, or just want to play a well-crafted 2.5D platformer on-the-go, you could do a lot worse.”
