Just what do Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong have in store for this revamped return to their classic adventure? Here’s a little taste:

Stomp enemies, blast out of barrels, ride mine carts and do so much more when Donkey Kong Country Returns HD launches early next year. This visually-enhanced version of the duo’s platforming adventure combines selected features from both Wii and Nintendo 3DS versions of the game – including the extra Nintendo 3DS levels!
With 80 levels across 9 different worlds – each featuring a dastardly boss battle at the end – the Kongs will have to be at their best to earn back their precious bananas. And of course, gathering every secret, collectible and Time Attack medal will require some serious platforming panache.
But you don’t have to do it alone! A friend or family member can lend a hand as Diddy Kong in local co-op. Diddy can use his jet pack to help land tough jumps and fend off enemies with his trusty peanut popgun. Playing in Modern Mode helps players out with additional hearts and items, and you can also select Original Mode for a tougher challenge.
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is now available for pre-order at select retailers, at Nintendo.com and on Nintendo eShop at a suggested retail price of $59.99.
