I still love Donkey Kong in general but I will grab the game at a later date once I get my express card first.
It’s really good and well worth a purchase. Only on the second stage and can tell it’s a winner.
EXACTLY!
Noone knows why they had to use EX Cards. But after they are so expensive, this is the main reason why I haven‘t bought any games. I‘m waiting for EX cards to get cheaper. especially here in Europe. I don‘t wanna buy multiplay 256 GB cards. At least a 512 card should do, but its so hard to get one.
It is what it is, but the message needs to get out there. Ppl tested for instance Yakuza 0 on a Steamdeck with a „regular“ micro SD card and I believe it loads even faster than on S2. at least there‘s just no need to force these heavy pricetags onto us.
I really want to like this game — if that makes sense. Maybe it’s just too many years with Rare’s style stuck in my head. it just feels so close to Odyssey that it doesn’t feel fresh enough for me. I can’t quite put my finger on it. People and journalist seems happy with the gameplay, so good for them. Maybe I’ll give it a shot later.
That’s awesome news! I just updated Donkey Kong Bananza to Version 1.1.0 and tried out the new co-op GameShare and GameChat features. When I first dug into the game, I loved how vivid the levels and characters were, which added to the excitement of playing with a friend. Plus, knowing the update includes tidying up bugs gives me confidence to dive deeper without interruption. I’ve used buybackworld before when selling older games, so having a smooth experience with new ones feels even better.
