Former Nintendo staff share insight into the Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Cranky Kong reveal for VGX 2013
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
Some of you may recall that in 2013, former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime appeared at VGX to show off Cranky Kong in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. VGX was the new take on the Spike Video Game Awards that ran for a decade prior. It only took place that single year – Geoff Keighley then went on to form The Game Awards.
Kit Ellis and Krysta Yang, who worked for Nintendo for over a decade, reflected on the whole thing in an episode of Kit & Krysta Podcast. Ellis started out by sharing the following, which goes into why the Cranky Kong news was chosen in the first place:
[Let’s Talk] The Game Awards 2023 reactions

The Game Awards 2023 happened this week, and we want to know what you thought about the show.
If you’re a Switch-only owner, you may have been disappointed by the announcements. There was some news for the platform here and there such as Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, but many of the titles were for other platforms. Some have a good chance at ending up on Switch eventually such as World of Goo 2, but we’ll have to wait and see. Also, Nintendo itself has been at The Game Awards in the past with both big and small announcements, but this was one of those years in which it chose not to bring anything.
As for the actual awards, Nintendo did get some wins in that department. However, for Game of the Year, that went to Baldur’s Gate 3 rather than Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or Super Mario Bros. Wonder. You can catch up on all of the winners here.
How do you feel about The Game Awards this year? What did you think of the announcements and winners? Anything related to the event is fair game, so let us know in the comments.

Some Splatoon 3 players experiencing health issues from new Splattercolor Screen
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Splatoon 3 introduced the Splattercolor Screen as a new special weapon for Chill Season 2023, but things haven’t gone smoothly as controversy has started due to some players unfortunately saying that they’ve been experiencing health issues when it’s in use.
There have been various reports on social media about the situation, such as from X users NoodleArms16 and chrysan_s – plenty of others are chiming in as well. Both physical and mental-related issues are impacting players with migraines, dizziness, minor pain in the eyes, and panic among the different problems that have been mentioned. Some have even passed out due to the special being very disorienting and loud to the point that people with and without autism expressed a desire to see the special weapon changed. This is not only from players in the west, but in Japan as well.
