The Switch version of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze launches today. To celebrate, Nintendo has put together a launch trailer – give it a watch:

Cranky Kong

Nintendo has a new trailer up for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze that introduces one of the game’s playable characters. View the video for Cranky Kong below.

The boxart for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is mostly the same in North America and Europe. There are a couple of differences though, and both are pretty random.

The first difference concerns the positioning one Donkey Kong’s foot. Nintendo also went with a slightly different approach to the text pointing out the new Funky Kong mode. We have a look at both boxart versions above.

Fun fact: the foot positioning was actually the same for the original Wii U release. Fans seem to be noticing it more on Switch, however.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

Four years after it originally debuted on Wii U, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze now makes the jump to Switch this week. Reviews for this version of the game are now starting to appear. We’ve rounded up some of the early verdicts below.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze has been up on the Wii U eShop since it launched in 2014. However, with the new Switch version just on the horizon, it has now gone missing.

Attempting to search for the game on the Wii U eShop won’t return you with any results for the actual game. Likewise, there isn’t an option for the digital on Nintendo’s own North American website.

This week’s episode of Nintendo Minute has gone live. In today’s video, Kit and Krysta show off Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze in some pretty incredible costumes. Check out the full episode below.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze - reversible cover

Nintendo has seemingly included an extra goodie with physical copies of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Copies are starting to circulate, and it appears that a reversible cover is included featuring Funky Kong.

This isn’t the first time Nintendo has offered a reversible cover. Bayonetta 2 received the same treatment earlier in the year.
