John Nelson+FollowDonkey Kong’s Redesign: Game or Movie First?So, Nintendo just confirmed the new Donkey Kong look in Bananza actually inspired the movie version—not the other way around. As someone who’s tracked every pixel of DK since the arcade days, I’m fascinated by how design choices ripple across games and film. Does this mean game-first design is finally getting its due, or is Nintendo just rewriting the narrative? What do you think: should movies follow games, or vice versa? #Games #VideoGames #DonkeyKong10Share
sabrinawhitaker+FollowDonkey Kong’s Double Take: 2D vs 3D Era?Nintendo’s splitting Donkey Kong into two distinct branches—2D and 3D—just like Mario. With Bananza on Switch 2, the debate heats up: will 3D DK finally get the spotlight it missed since Donkey Kong 64, or will hardcore fans stick to the classic 2D platforming roots? And with Nintendo touting 60 frames per second as essential, are we witnessing a true next-gen leap for the Kong? Which side are you on? #Games #VideoGames #DonkeyKong10Share

Would you actually use a pillow with a hole, or is this just Nintendo’s latest viral oddity? Let’s debate! #Nintendo #DonkeyKong #TechDebate #Games #VideoGames50Share
Eric Stevens+FollowIs Donkey Kong Delaying 3D Mario?So, Donkey Kong Bananza is shaping up to be a must-play for Switch 2, but here’s the twist: if the Super Mario Odyssey team is behind it, we might not see a new 3D Mario for years. Does Nintendo risk losing momentum by holding back its flagship plumber, or is it smart to let DK take the spotlight? Would you wait five years for a Mario masterpiece? #NintendoSwitch2 #DonkeyKong #3DMario #Games #VideoGames20Share
Amanda Short+FollowSwitch 2 GameShare: Nostalgia or Nuisance?Nintendo’s new GameShare feature for Donkey Kong Bananza is giving me major déjà vu.

Would you ask a friend to share, or wait for your own console? Let’s debate: is GameShare a win for players, or just FOMO in disguise? #NintendoSwitch2 #GameShare #DonkeyKong #Games #VideoGames00Share

After two decades, Nintendo swapped out Takashi Nagasako, and fans are buzzing about Koji Takeda—straight from the Mario movie—possibly taking over. Does this fresh voice add new energy, or does it mess with nostalgia? And with other classic voices missing, is Nintendo risking its legacy for reinvention?
