ack, plz ignore the text overlay I have at a couple of points. I forgot to update them after I got them backwards in a previous video. Everything else is accurate
@@GameXplain how dare UA-cam remove annotations
@@knuclear200x RIGHT?!?!
Makes sense.
Just humans being human. Mistakes happen. No biggie.
bro, no one cares about this dumb fur effect.
We thought you were going to address the multiplayer problem that prevents playing it entirely.
Maybe they should focus on fixing multiplayer.
or just making a new DK game. Oh wait Nintendo doesn’t care about DK anymore.
This. Shipping a busted game is cringe. Worse since it's Nintendo.
@@masterfarr8265 says this while they give him his own extension as part of the Mario theme park
@@cyxcevenIt’s based on the 3DS version, so its not technically busted. The Diddy player can just ride DK the entire level and then it’s beatable. Not as fun, but not busted. Just a bad change. One I do hope they’ll fix, but it is what it is
I actually saw a pretty good video on the remakes multiplayer
If they do release a patch for DK, I hope it also fixes the sensitivity issue with the motion controls.
I really have to shake hard to get DK to do anything. Whereas in the original Wii version as well as Tropical Freeze, I always do a light thrust to slam and roll. I know I'm prolly the only one who likes the motion controls in DK, but I thought I should bring this up regardless.
I’ve noticed that as well. I always played it with a nunchuck on Wii, and I’ll say with 2 joy-con the sensitivity seems good.
But I did notice with 1 it requires a heavy shake.
@Sky1Eagle1 I usually play with the joycons in the grip, maybe it's trying to sense motion from one at a time? But again, I didn't have this problem in Tropical Freeze Switch.
I always played the Wii version with the remote on its side like an NES controller and it worked perfectly.
i loved the motion roll in the original game too! maybe it is stockholm from time trials tho... haha
I remember doing a DKCR HD post launch survey recently and I did mention about the missing effects on this new version. Maybe just maybe they read these comments along the ones in social media and we'll get a small fix for these?
Right as i pressed the closr video button he said "Don't close the video!" And it scared the shit out of me
ahahaha I see EVERYTHING :D But did you come back?! (I'm guessing so since you made this comment lol)
@@GameXplain I did and I made sure to finish the video
Bros obsessed with DKs arm hair
what is this title man...
I own Forever Entertainment’s PANZER DRAGOON REMAKE for Switch. It had the same type of problems as DKC Returns HD at launch, but after several patches, it’s currently at V3.0 and is perfect now!
That's definitely encouraging! Let's hope that bodes well for DKCR HD's future!
Huh, maybe there is still some hope...
First a DKC Returns themed challenge for Tetris 99 and now a demo. So much promotion for basically the exact same game on Switch. Really makes me wish they took the SM3DW port approach and gave an entirely new mode. Since it never happened, I'm gonna share my idea on a possible post-game mode that could have been or could be depending on if the very slim chance of DLC becomes a reality.
For me personally, I have the Tiki Tak tribe retreat to Crocodile Isle where they hypnotize the Kremlings into overthrowing King K Rool. Their plan would be to use K.Rool's giant laser as a last-ditch effort against the kongs and to retrieve their bananas. King K.Rool, obviously not happy at being overthrown takes his revenge against the tribe and sets off to stop them.
You would play as King K.Rool, traversing Crocodile Isle like in DKC2 with some of the levels of the that game making a return like Gangplank Galleon and Krazy Kremland. The enemies would be your fellow Kremlings under control of the Tiki Tak Tribe. King K.Rool can throw his crown attacking far away enemies and obtaining collectables normally inaccessible. Later on, you can buy upgrades to special abilities such as the blunderbuss and the propeller pack. These can help in traversing hidden areas of the map and making gameplay easier.
That's a great idea!!
0:04 Jump the shark, wow I see what you did there 👏
so... why is this whole fur thing an issue? this is the most nothing burger of a "controversy" I've ever seen
The fact that you're defending that the highest-selling console had issues with a wii game
@@knuclear200xNo one is defending it, but...
The game has bigger issues (broken multiplayer) than... something almost no one would notice without UA-cam videos looking at all pixels
@@knuclear200xit’s the fact that anyone sees this as an issue.
@@knuclear200x the game has bigger problems than missing fur textures, yet this is the thing everyones throwing their arms in the air about... why?
@pikaknight_ now you're defending it further by mentioning the 2nd problem that the highest-selling console also hasn't fixed yet
Fun fact: “Kalimba” is the name of the Tiki Tak Tribe member that DK beats up in the game’s opening,
It would be better if they fixed multiplayer
Right? I couldn’t care less about the graphics and I don’t get why it is SUCH a big deal
THIS! I cant play with my bro, so I'm not getting it.
That Link in the stained glass...looks like Twilight Princess Link.
It indeed is Link from Twilight Princess, AKA the best design Link ever had in my opinion.
@@kevinkite3418 I think OoT Link is myself.
@ I also love OoT Link design and Twilight Princess Link has much of it. The reason I prefer Twilight Princess is just because I think Link looks more detailed, but overall, both designs are really fantastic.
The ongoing mystery of DK fur-gate has single-handedly made this release entertaining for me.
Maybe I'm a bit late, but in 5-B, in the cutscene, the Tiki doesn't move in a circle.
0:30 Wait, your explanation at this point is confusing & you messed up the proof.
He got it backwards before too.
@@ItApproaches😂
I think he just reused footage from an earlier video,
in which he messed up the text there and didn't think to fix it here.
Did you know in sonic generations the 2011 demo in the games files it had a werehog life image
Yes because unleashed and generations both use the hedgehog engine
@@TimDespairBear11 true but also not the case because intentionally the game was gonna have adventure era gameplay and werehog levels
@ I wish it had adventure sonic it would have been like spiderman no way home
I played the demo and I really love the game because it was my first Donkey Kong country game back on the Nintendo Wii
Fur saga part 7 (I think. I lost count lol) is by far the wildest episode so far lmao. At this point if they do patch it I expect all the fur effects to be gone except for DKs arm at the start of the game XD
2026 is the 40th anniversary of the Zelda franchise so wouldn't be too far off if they annouce the next expansion for the Super Mario World Parks next year.
When did the Zelda franchise started if 2026 is the 40th anniversary?
@JustMehere9832 21. February 1986 for FDS
@@RedMonkeyification So that’s the release of the first Zelda game from the NES wasn’t it? Also, what’s FDS?
@@JustMehere9832 FDS = Famicom Disk System, later The game was released for NES again
@@RedMonkeyification Oh thanks
What would the Zelda ride be? Well that's quite obvious isn't it. Link got to ride it in Twilight Princess. That giant carnival canon thing that shoots Link up into the sky. That's what people would get, but you only get one go, as you don't survive the fall, unless you got a chicken with you to hold on to so you can float down.
I'd like to see the Zelda ride be either Linebeck's ship from Phantom Hourglass, or Link's Train from Spirit Tracks.
I want to say that the demo for Sonic 06 had some animations/features/polish missing from the final release.
There's so many possibilities for a Zelda ride. One thing that came to mind was the Rickety Coaster in the Shipyard of Skyward Sword. There could be a Wind Waker themed water ride involving the King of Red Lions as well, or something like the Boat Cruise in Majora's Mask. But BoTW and ToTK are the most popular Zelda games of all time, so you have to think they'll draw from those two. I think a dark ride would maybe be the best option? Like have you going through a temple or dungeon in a similar experience to the Mario Kart ride, but maybe instead of shooting shells there's some kind of puzzle that you need to solve. Given temples are so iconic to the Zelda experience I have to think they recreate a temple and let you do some puzzles, maybe activities like with the Power Band for the Mario area. One of those vertical lift rides would be interesting too, like to simulate the Skyview Towers.
I have completed two recent surveys for Nintendo about this game, including lots of questions about my thoughts on this game and Donkey Kong more generally, and what I hope to see from the series in future. I think it’s clear they don’t see this game as a cheap late release, but a dip-in-the toe to see what people want from the character. So I do think there is a chance they will respond to the feedback and fix things.
The graphic "detail" that have staggered me the most are the completely broken backgrounds in most of the cave levels, with these weird and really offputting demarcation lines and ugly textures, you can even see the normaly invisible black blocks that hold the stalagtites.
I can't understand how such a eye-burning visual can make into the final game...
There's also a fun one in the level where the squid breaks the ship in the background, the spaces between the cordages is filled with a brown color instead of being transparent.
Castlevania - Aura of Holy Might (New Content Out Weekly)
This album features 8-bit and 16-bit remixes from the franchise. (I hope you find something you like. Cheers!)
In summary the “DK missing fur” saga in Donkey Kong Country Returns HD has taken a bizarre turn, with the demo featuring enhanced fur effects that are missing in the full game. This inconsistency raises hopes for a future patch, but the demo’s release date suggests it might be based on an earlier, unbroken version of the game. Additionally, a Zelda reference in the upcoming Epic Universe theme park hints at potential future Zelda-themed attractions.
That means a Zelda theme park is confirmed to come.
@@JustMehere9832 Yes, pretty much.
@@cultoosk But very likely not til close to to end of the decade or after that.
@@JustMehere9832 Yeah (I'm still hoping for a Kirby themed land).
@@cultoosk They’re probably gonna focus on Mario, Zelda and Pokemon first since those franchises are most popular. Kirby may have to come after that because I think Kirby is not popular here in the US/UK, while in Japan it is. There’s a Kirby cafe over there still.
“A demo fixes a key issue with the game.”
It’s the Sonic 06 Xbox Live Demo all over again.
You guys have nothing else to talk about dont you?
I played the demo of the game and it made me so happy. Its my first time playing Donkey Kong Country Returns again after 7 years of missing it. I do hope I get the full game soon.
Bro found infinite content glitch 😭
If we do someday get a Zelda Land expansion of Super Nintendo World that has a real life size Hyrule Castle from BOTW, that would be a dream come true for me and substantially more exciting than all the DK arm hair imaginable. Cinderella's castle can get dunked on.
They should’ve been done that before they release the full version of donkey Kong country returns HD
This won't fix the physical release. It is a shame. Fix first and release later, Nintendo! Especially those crappy errors. There were time, where a release was the finished product.
Zelda Park needs to be real!
The demo for Final Fantasy XV is completely different than the game
That title better be a placeholder
This has to be the biggest Nintendo controversy I’ve seen In years. Now with a new generation of fanboys to defend the setbacks made by Nintendo.
I still don’t have the game so playing the demo is awesome
It’s very odd that they would choose to fix something with a demo rather than fixing it in the full release of the game.
maybe they fix that problem in the one level where the bananas are not spinning. Yes they ported that bug from the Wii
FOR THE LOVE OF KONG! Nintendo, PLEASE FIX 2-PLAYER!
Even weirder than this so called issue is that the internet is going nuts about it.
bro, ofc its not a first worlds problem BUT its a "HD" port of a what 15 years old game? and its full price with 60$. for that price and for the fact we saw this game 3 times now it should have been a perfect port and actually new content.
but its a really cheap port with no extra content at all. and no, the 8 new levels dont count as they were introduced on the 3ds for the first time. and this port has a few flaws not only the fur...
can yall pls stop making like its not a problem? those videos discussing bout those flaws are pretty much justified...
I didn't even know that there was a demo.
The saga never ends
I know you can't change the difficulty on the demo.
Does the fur effect glitch happen on all difficulties on the full game
The co op bug is a bigger issue imo
Wait, since when does a demo launch weeks after the full release?!
Probably means the game sold badly
@@jesusramirezromo2037 Imagine the demo download is higher than the $60 game sold.
In yesterday there came an information of DK Country Returns HD free demo on Nintendo Switch. Should I try that demo and think will I or not get this game. Is it worth it if I have this already on Wii and I can get a cheaper version on 3DS? 😮
Try it, but I don't think it's that worth of you already played it before
@Gamexplain Andre? Have you gotten your tickets for Epic Universe yet?? If so when are you doing??? I really hope that you can make it there sometime this year!
Did they fix the coop bug in the demo ?
They did not
@GameXplain I was gonna make a joke about Nintendo having weird priorities when fixing bugs, but I guess it is easier to simply apply a texture to a model than rewriting part of the code than handles defeated enemies
Oof
@@knuclear200xhey! We must like the same stuff.
@@knuclear200xWhy you gotta bother then?
No way a demo has a newer patch than the full release.
I just got the demo and it looks good to me and I didn't notice anything wrong with the demo. Granted I haven't played the Nintendo Switch version of the game.
Not a "fix" but in the Little Nightmares II demo (for Switch) you can excess the dlc room, which is impossible in the full game without having bought the dlc. So noy really fixed in the full game, but still interesting that the dlc was available in the demo (through glitched collision I believe)
Im loving how this issue keep going. It hilarious. 😅
Let me know when they fix the framerate issues and broken multiplayer and then I'll think about buying it.
I bet Nintendo won't fix anything else in that damn DK HD game. Those 🤬.
It still boggles my mind that they went with DK next for SNW instead of things like Zelda, or Kirby, or Pokemon. I feel like the whole thing is just Miyamoto celebrating himself lol
Ya know what? If Miyamoto wants to celebrate himself? I'd say he's earned it. He may literally be the most influential person in all of gaming history.
Helps that DK and his world just had a massive presence in a billion dollar movie.
@Lakitu1134 which came first though?
@ Donkey Kong came first. Originally released in 1981.
Zelda was first released in 1986. Kirby was first released in 1992. Pokemon was first released in 1996.
@@Lostmymind1 I meant, did they give DK presence at SMW to hype him up for the movie or did the movie influence them to make him a big deal. Arguably this thing has been in development longer than the movie
I clicked on this video thinking they fixed the LITERALLY BROKEN Multiplayer. no...
It's just about some dumb fur effect.
Crazy that Metroid Prime Remastered was 40, and this is 60.
I am playing the original on an old crtv
Someone should test the coop issue where Diddy can't bounce off an enemy that player one bounced off of.
DK's arm still looks odd like it's stretched out longer then his arms really are :v
SADX seriously traumatized these dudes.
2:22
No, Bonkers isn’t in this game.
DK's fur effect controversy reminds me of the blue arms sonic issue. Talk about the damn multiplayer issues
We made a whole video about that!
ua-cam.com/video/zVFif-PCwQw/v-deo.html
@GameXplain did it get fixed in the demo?
@@Swampert_Tube Sadly not
Dear Andre. Please. Enough of this dk game nonsense. It’s getting old. And boring. Fill the time with greater ideas like more in depth switch 2 mouse talk.
Don't worry, I have a couple of fun video ideas about the mouse coming soon!
@ ok! Please get into Pikmin and now that can be controlled. I think and in depth microcosmic analysis video of precisely what the mouse can do in deep specifics would be cool. I so love Nintendo getting creative like this. Imagine. Just imagine. Nintendo. Fortnite. Mouse. Splatoon like Battle royale at mushroom kingdom. They would sell a billion switch 2!
Some serious mislabelling in this video 😂
I don’t care much for donkey Kong for issue. but it’ll be awesome when the time comes for the legend of Zelda expansion to be at Universal Studios super Nintendo world. The biggest landmark they should have obviously is Hyrule castle and Ganondorf’s Tower. so the attractions for Zelda expansions can be puzzle solving ones like an escape room to put you in the shoes of link.
I just want a new DKC game…
At least a DK64 remake
For me that is not a thing , they should fix the double jump on the enemy when you playing in coop .
I hope they fix the multiplayer because it's unplayable.
I have it on Wii and 3ds so I was set in not buying this, however, I may have to... playing this demo I felt nostalgia from playing on the Wii coming home from school in my first year of secondary (high school).
Hmmm, a potentially earlier build of a game having been better then the released one? Sounds awfully familiar....
So we’re still on the fur? Call me when they fix the multiplayer double hit on enemies. I don’t even play co-op but I also didn’t buy this game so none of it matters to me.
0:58 that's the opposite, like you said Dk & Diddy have the fur, but not DK only. The name is just wrong
I wish they would just permanently fix the fur issue. Someone must know a simple fix or know the program well enough to correct it. Little things like this are markers of bigger issues. Regardless, I was expecting and hoping it was the multiplayer issue that got fixed.
The sound is so low on the game.
Hope that a Zelda land could be made, there's a rumor of the next sixth land at Epic Universe, rumors appoint to Lord of The Rings, Wicked, monsterverse (king kong and godzilla), even videogames based. Time will tell, but on the zelda stained glass, it will be in the shop, maybe there could be Zelda merch to buy, in none of the other Super Nintendo World parks (japan and california) sell Zelda merchandise, this could be the first one
Andre you made the same mistake twice. You flipped the truth about loading with Diddy and DK or just DK. Just DK is the better fur, where as with Diddy you get the worse fur. You said it the other way around.
Wat the demo is better the main game?! But how
Still not worth $60
That's some highway robbery right there
Then don’t buy it. Why are you still pissed?
@@JustMehere9832the same complains about Zelda Skyward Sword "a 15 year old game at full price" even Super Mario 3D All Stars was criticized for being "a 60$ emulator" Nintendo fans tend to complain for small details, DONT GET ME WRONG!! I am a Nintendo fan but not that kind
@@mattdkfan92 I only bought Mario 3D All Stars cause having 3 Mario games in one package was worth it. But damn. People are really hating on remakes/remasters? They did this back in the 3ds. But with Nintendo as of today, yeah the only reasons that are $60 is because of IP popularity compared as to Prime remastered which was only $40.
ok now give me back the sun in the third level
Sadly that level isn't playable in the demo, as I wanted to check if they had fixed it!
This vid is a bit much don’t u think
Oh thank god I was worried!
I was hoping for a multiplayer fix...
I wish you weren’t spending so much of your creative bandwidth on this.
If it helps, this video didn't take too much time, and I assure you it hasn't much affected my more creative projects
a hint to a zelda movie likely
Has anyone had the pause screen creep in from the left while playing?
wait what?! Do you have a pic or video?
@ Here’s a clip where the pause screen takes forever to load.
ua-cam.com/video/zHEzJfS9akQ/v-deo.htmlsi=Awdtcj3hRGghbC8D
Later in the game the sound effects stopped playing and the pause screen slowly crept in overtop of gameplay
ua-cam.com/video/hdFADcE2W6Q/v-deo.htmlsi=p4O_HV6YG72nfLdm
oh wow, thanks for uploading these! Those are both wild! Just to make sure, are you playing on an actual Nintendo Switch? Because that definitely shouldn't be happening!
@ no prob! Yup this is a legit switch. Incoming video link!
@ Here's the clip. Playing from the Switch captured on. It’s not hacked or anything. I’m playing the version of DK that downloaded before release and unlocked on release day. ua-cam.com/video/si774KZhD70/v-deo.htmlsi=exMU_WxTn2BCF12Y
Jesus fucking christ i am so sick & tired of seeing these videos. Is there really nothing else going on in the gaming world right now that we have to constantly talk about this 🤣🤣🤣
GameXplain desperate to find out more about Switch 2, otherwise making content about anything (even nonsense) Nintendo stuff...
[🖤]Remmever that if gane didn existed ad far as tbevgay direct, *THE ENTIRE MARIOVERSE AND SONICVERSE WOULD HAVE BEEN UNPLAYABLE UNTIL THE SWITCH 2 REVEAL AND THE GAME AWARDS* because of the cringe ded battle that features explicit refs to genuinely awful games of respective franchises
Sony got problems
Xbox got problems
& Nin got fur problems
This industry is not cooking well as they forgot their ingredient books.
I want a refund until it tastes good...
Heck, we might see another complete version get released again like what they did with MK8D+DLC physical 💀.
It’s only Sony and Xbox having problems. Xbox being the next Sega, and Sony losing tons of money and most games are heading to PC and Nintendo.
idk why this matters but ok
Booked to go in Oct 25 👍🏻
Why the hell does anyone care
Tbf, had you seen what your subreddit got up to before the reveal? This is child's play! 😅 (Kidding! You've done a fine job)
@@GameXplain Yeah I understand. Maybe I should've worded my comment better. It's a genuine question. Why do people care so much about these minute details?
This isn't a problem. This is a minor nitpick at best...
