It’d fix the weirdness of the inter-species romance element. So that’s good.

Wouldn’t fix her character though.
Honestly, I don’t think that’d fix anything substantial. Sure it’d make the whole romance thing less icky on a surface level but that doesn’t fix literally everything else about her character or her relationship with Sonic

She's still an awful character, so yeah.

It'd fix the ick, but she's still a nothing burger in terms of writing, lol.

I thought the only reason people hated their relationship was because of the species difference?

It’s the issue that gets the most attention as well as the most meme’d on, but she and their relationship is much worse when you get past that point

Ehhhhh Jungle Beat is a weird case.

It was made at a time when DK’s identity was all wonky because it’s main developer was gone, so they didn’t really know what they were doing when it came to character and feel. And it was made to fit the DK Bongoes. And I guarantee the people working on it grew up with arcade DK as their DK.

If the rumors to be believed, then the folks working at Nintendo EPD are a lot of people who played the country games as kids, and love it’s characters. You can see that in the New Donk City references. I don’t think they’d mistreat it’s characters and world this time. Not to mention it won’t be tethered to a weird controller anymore.

No, it won’t feel just like Rare or just like Retro. But that would be the case no matter who’s working on it.

I keep saying it, but I’m gonna say it again. If Nintendo EPD is working on this game, DK is in good hands. It’s not an obligation for a western studio to make a DK game for it to be good. That really shouldn’t need to be said.

Just wait and see, if it’s not to your liking then fine, but don’t write it off before we even know it exists.

And play the Galaxy games and Odyssey. They made those games, it could give you a feel for how it may (emphasis on MAY) turn out in some ways.
If you say so I certainly trust you.

That one blew my mind. IT LOOKS SO GOOD

HOW DID THEY PERFECTLY RENDER EACH GAME'S STYLE

WARIOWARE IS A TREASURE
Using a lot of pre-rendering. Look closely at the 3H microgame and it'll be obvious

I don't really remember much about Elise.

Except for running hand in hand with Sonic and me wondering how she could keep up with him.

I can’t even. So much is going through my head right now that I literally have the Apple spinning beach ball of death in my brain.

And the worst part is.

Spider-Man love interests that I shall claim as best out of pettiness
Felicia Hardy > Natasha Romanoff > Gwen Stacy > Mary Jane Watson = Michelle Jones > Liz Allen > Carlie Cooper >>>>>> Michele Gonzales
