Cranky Kong Bounces into Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–During this weekend’s VGX event, a live demonstration of the upcoming Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze game for Wii U revealed some exciting details about the addition of Cranky Kong as a playable character. For the first time in the Donkey Kong Country series, players will be able to assume control of the fan-favorite Cranky Kong. Cranky joins Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong as one of Donkey Kong’s partners in the game. At VGX, an event celebrating video games, Nintendo also revealed that the game will launch in North America on Feb. 21 in stores and on the Nintendo eShop.
The bearded Cranky Kong is very spry for his age, using his cane to bounce on dangerous objects like spikes. This ability helps him access areas other characters can’t reach. During single-player mode, Cranky rides on Donkey Kong’s back. In co-op multiplayer, a second player can control Cranky, Diddy or Dixie directly (an additional controller is required for multiplayer play, and is sold separately).

XSEED doesn’t intend to localize Game Center CX 3
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
A little over a month ago, one fan asked XSEED on its Facebook page about the possibility of localizing Game Center CX 3. Unfortunately, the company ruled out the game for publishing in North America.
XSEED wrote:
Nobody would be happier than us to publish it, but our bank would cry…
XSEED did localize the first Game Center CX game as Retro Game Challenge several years. But sadly, the game bombed on the market.
Thanks to Arnell for the tip.
