It may not seem like much, but trust me when I say that those extra hearts will definitely come in handy.
The new difficulty mode gives you a permanent extra health heart and some additional items to buy in Cranky Kong’s store, but nothing about the actual gameplay itself is changed. As a sidescrolling platformer, Donkey Kong Country Returns is an incredibly difficult game, regardless of your experience in the genre. So what’s different about the 3DS port as opposed to the original Wii version? Well for one thing, a new difficulty mode has been added to makes things just a little bit easier for newcomers to the series. In fact, they did such a great job with the reimagining of the old SNES greats, that many people in the gaming community have begun giving Retro the highly-honored designation of “the new Rare.” But while Retro is currently toiling away at their still yet-to-be-announced Wii U debut, it’s time to see how Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D manages the jump (or barrel blast) onto the handheld screen. The sights and sounds of Donkey Kong’s world were still as vibrant as ever in the Kongs’ latest banana-filled outing, and Retro did an amazing job of taking the reins of Rare’s legacy with the old Donkey Kong Country games on the Super Nintendo, and boosting the core concepts into what will undoubtedly be one of the most impressive platformers of the decade. If you have ever owned a Nintendo Wii in the last three years, then the odds are you’ve probably put that puppy to use and played Retro’s fantastic Donkey Kong Country Returns at some point in your gaming career.
