If an older Donkey Kong game were to be remade, would they go back and change the older DK design to reflect his current look? Would they have us running around in DK64 and DK Jungle Beat with the Switch 2-era look for DK?
>>748982545>remadeYes>portNo, see DKCRHD
>>748982545I am excited to see new design in Mario Party and Smash Bros within a few years. I like all these new character designs, including Fox McCloud.

Peach got a special cover in Showtime! to match the movies but her in-game model is still the usual design. Even in Bananza Cranky, Diddy, & Dixie looked like themselves. Only DK substantially changed.

>>748984576Apart from the Sonic-Sin of dividing their eyes which I might chalk up to developer oversight, I'm not seeing it.

>>748982545> the monkeys do nigger rapwhat did rare mean by this
I'm surprised they didn't use DK's new design for Universal. Interestingly for USJ and Epic he has different designs for his old look.
I wish they didn't fuck with his brow. It could had worked with his new design.
>>748987204It was that simple.
>>748988550So much better than the racoon gaze they ended up giving him.
>>748985649>>748986180Definitely not an oversight because Diddy got all new promo renders and even merch that reflects his new look
>>748989671nuDiddy looks like a soifacing redditor
