Description

Jump, roll, and stomp through Donkey Kong Island in 2D platforming action

Help Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong recover their precious banana hoard from the villainous Tiki Tak Tribe!

Stomp enemies, blast through barrels, and ride rockets and mine carts (and even Rambi the rhino) in 80 levels across nine worlds.
Play the game as it was first designed for the Wii™ system, or reduce the difficulty for extra hearts and other goodies to make your journey a little easier. This barrel-blasting adventure is visually enhanced in HD for the Nintendo Switch™ system and includes the extra levels from the Nintendo 3DS™ version!

Team up with a friend and take on the whole game as Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong

Pass a Joy-Con™ controller to a buddy and take on the Tiki Tak Tribe as DK and Diddy in two-player local play. Pelt foes with Diddy’s Peanut Popgun and hover using his Barrel Jet, and slam bad guys into submission with DK’s Ground Pound—or just Barrel Roll right through them. Work together to reclaim those bananas by the bunch!

Sent a Used Game

I was sent a game that had already been played and finished. There was a file already on the game completed at 101%. This was not labeled as refurbished so this was assumed to be brand new, so this is unacceptable.

Totally awesome, played it with my 9 year old son

Very fun game, one of the best on Switch. My son and I have had an absolute blast playing this. We shared so many laughs and it's been awesome. The music, graphics, levels, and challenges are great. It's hard on certain levels but never too hard to want to stop playing. Highly recommended to any DK fans, especially ones like us who haven't played Dkc Returns before Switch. Well worth it even at full price.

Definitive version at an unfortunate premium

Classic game. Overpriced for what it is but its nice to play on a big screen TV without blurriness and without the mandatory waggle controls of the original Wii version.
