Starfield is a 7/10. Get over it.
Tropical Freeze > 2 > 3 > 1

Replaying Returns now, so not sure where I'd place it.

This is a signature.
Tropical Freeze is probably an objectively better game, but I will always prefer the original trilogy, of which DKC2 is my favorite.

This is probably my ranking, though I still enjoy 1.
I'll tell you where the real road lies: Between your ears, behind your eyes. That is the path to Paradise, and, likewise, the road to ruin.
1 tbh

2 is some still competition, but I think if you strip away the graphics and music, 1 is the better-designed game.

It is what it is, man.

Haven't played the more recent ones.

The first game is still my favorite

2 > 1 > 3

2 is a masterpiece; 1's degree of difficulty remains welcome; 3 vanished the rhythmic gameplay, yet gave us fresh environments.
People really sleep on 3. Theres some things it does better than 2.

Tropical Freeze is probably the best.

DKC2. Also lol at 0 Returns

2 and it isn't close

PS4 looks great
2 by a wide margin, but the original 3 in general. Returns and TF are just too damn zoomed out for my tastes.

Out of the first three, DKC2.
It's amazing how people hang around message boards of games they don't like

Oh yea, I think they're all enjoyable games. Even Returns.

3 is one of my all time favorite games. I usually play through it at least once a year.

DKC2

TF is good, but I just hate the art style. It has that overly bright and clean plastic aesthetic that plagues so many Nintendo games. The SNES titles had this gritty look that perfectly captured the raw look of nature and weathered environments.

I think people forget how brutal / unfair DKC2 gets

It's nothing compared to Returns or Tropical Freeze difficulty-wise.

Tropical Freeze isn't just the best DKC game, it's the best 2D platformer, period.
Ghosts are cool.

Im not even good at video games and Ive 102%ed it at least 5 times. Both SNES and GBA. Its not too difficult at all.

Eh, in terms of unfairness I felt DKC1 had more "Fuck you" moments.

The last Kremlin in Mine Cart Carnage or the klaptrap that jumps when you jump at the very end of Loopy Lights both come to mind.

2 was overall harder, but I don't remember any outright bullshit moments.

Which bits are you thinking of? The only one that occurs to me is the Squawks section of Animal Antics (with the wind and the brambles), and even that just takes practice (a lot of practice). Other levels like Toxic Tower are tough but I wouldn't call them unfair.
Re-open board 261.
3 is by far the best DK game

He might be thinking of the Lost World, but I remember the Lost World in 3 being harder than 2.

Tropical Freeze is the best 2D platformer period, so that one

OG Returns had waggle controls for rolling... game was still pretty solid but it was not great for the time trial shit to have random delay on rolls.
Tah-rah-rah-boom-dee-aaay, did you get yours todaaay? I got mine yesterdaaay, that's why I walk this way.

I was disappointed when Returns came out, and the DK Country series was my favorite growing up. Bananza was the first game to really live up to that hype for me.

It's a wonderful game, TF is just better in every possible way.

i dont like either returns or TF

neither really captured the feeling of the DKC games for me

TF is probably the better game, but it still doesnt match the vibes, aesthetics, music and even controls of the og trilogy. specially 2.
SEXY SEXY!
Returns was eh

I think it might be a me problem, because I find myself enjoying Nintendo sidescrollers less and less over time, with little relation to when they actually released.

I like 3 the most, but 2 is probably "better"
Fact: Nintendo is the best, there is no point denying it.

I recently just replayed the classic trilogy for the first time in ~20 years and DKC2 really was not particularly bad. Toxic Tower was annoying, but that's really the only level that stands out to me as being even a bit challenging.

2, but TF is close, which is impressive considering how good 2 is. Also, I feel like 3 is super underrated these days.
The answer to the question nobody asked.
3 is great. It was my favorite as a kid, just because it was the easiest to blast through a full playthrough on. But even if it's the weakest of the three, upon reexamination, it's still a marvelous game.
