Under the influence of a group of evil Tikis, the animals of Donkey Kong Island have raided Donkey Kong's banana hoard and stolen his stash of bananas - and being an ape of large appetites he understandably wants them back.

Review FrogBard 4/5 · Oct 22, 2020

a short review of donkey kong wii game

this is a really cool and impressive platformer and i would personally argue that its only real glaring fault is the wii remote waggle controls. i think that was fixed in the 3ds version but the graphics in that one are not as good.
