Donkey Kong

I find it sad that a character that's technically OLDER THAN MARIO (Mario was Jumpman in the original Donkey Kong game, remember? caterpie;) has turned into such an abomination to gaming. Not only have his games sucked since DK64, which was just okay, really, he seems to be Nintendo's go-to character to test some stupid new peripheral or control scheme out. Nintendo doesn't even care about him anymore. He doesn't even talk now. You can't even play as him in Mario Party anymore.

I agree that Nintendo has completely degraded Donkey Kong into his own gravem but I still don't want him to die, I just want Ninty to stop absolutely butchering him.

They need to step up their game, for me the whole donkey konga thing killed the franchise. Get rid of konga drums and go back to the roots.

Just make it go away for awhile.

Also, Namco Museum must die. In the most excruciatingly painful way possible.

I played King of Swing a bit and enjoyed it. If I find it cheap, I'll definitely buy it.

If anything, Star Fox should be killed.

They don't need to kill the series off, just make better games for it. DKC1, 2, 3, and DK64 were all awesome as well as Diddy Kong Racing. Donkey Konga was alright, and Donkey Kong Jungle Beat kicked massive asses.
