Anyone wondering, this is the spiritual successor to the old DK Country titles on the SNES. An amazing game that lives up to its past. Bonus levels are tough and can take awhile to 100%, a must get if you love DK!

This is a replica of the Wii U version that came out years ago. This price is criminal for a repackaged game. Not even worth more than $20, folks.

Then don't buy the game.
What is it with SlickDealers wasting their time and everyone else' on complaining about Nintendo pricing. Nintendo games hold their prices and that's a good thing in the long run.

Your ignorance on the matter is certainly showing. Some people here may not know this exact game was released on the Wii U many years ago. It's not a new game and certainly doesn't deserve "new game" pricing.
in case you forgot, where also here to give advice and share knowledge on these subjects that others may be unaware of...

Sure, because if people knew it's also on the Wii U and it's cheaper there, they'll go buy a Wii U to play it. Do you guys here yourselves?

Donkey Kong Country for snes is still the best donkey kong game ever. I wouldn't mind the same game play with updated graphics and updated levels.

Is your argument the same on Breath of Wild? I rarely see that drop under $40 and it was initially released on the Wii U. Nintendo 1st party rarely drops under $40 on most of their IPs

I loved the heck out of that game. There was a halfway decent one on N64 as well. I should grab this for the kids, but don't think they will enjoy it as much as I did as a kid.

Thank you! Do people think that Wii U owner who now own a Switch don't know they already have the game? Most people who own a Wii U are Nintendo fanboys. Otherwise it's a new game to most people. Mari oKart 8 sold 8 million copies on the Wii U and another 40-50 million for the Switch. A good game is a good game.

There's a lot of complaints from WII U owners about Nintendo abandoning the WII U just to re-release the same exact game on the switch.
