Rare Donkey Kong Delights to Grace the Wii U and 3DS
Today's Nintendo Download Update news for Europe brought a few welcome surprises for Virtual Console fans, including confirmation that this week will bring us the Super NES classic Donkey Kong Country. The good news didn't stop there for DK fans, however.
As the detail was buried within promotion prices for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, some may have missed the fact that the next two updates will bring more retro DK platforming, in what's certainly a Rare treat. The following titles are on the way to the Wii U and 3DS.
Wii U
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest — 23rd October
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble — 30th October
The arrival of the Game Boy series of games on the 3DS is particularly welcome for those that missed out on them in the '90s — or weren't even born yet; they were Rare's portable entries that accompanied the better-known SNES titles.
