I still like DKC and DKC2. Played both earlier this year.

For the record, I still like Gex too and I just played it two or three days ago. :(

...I know the answer is that the "old-school gameplay" pass is a double standard reserved only for first party Nintendo games, but I still wanted to get that out there.

*NSMB didn't shit on Mario's character design/art style. Furthermore, the game is not as ugly as a rhino's armpit.

*NSMB hit in the middle of a side-scroller drought.


*NSMB took plenty of flack for not pushing the genre anyway.


*Bouncing goombas.

I never got around to playing DK94, I always wanted to though.

Just one of those games that kinda slipped through the cracks.
