It's very difficult in a very frustrating way. After playing Super Mario 3D World, Donkey Kong just feels really subpar.

That's a bummer to hear. Although its kind of just the nature of the Franchise right? I mean past DK games have been similar to this. I just played through Rayman Legends on PS3 and many of the levels in it are similar...its some skill but also a lot of trial and error, especially the on rails levels. (or levels where you have a time limit or fire wall chasing you forcing you to run through the level at a quick pace) That being said the trial and error doesn't really bother me too much so im going to pick up DKC Tropical Freeze at some point. May pick up Super Mario 3d world first, not sure yet.
In other news, I just got my Refurbished Deluxe Wii U today! I think a steal for $217 total (that's total, after taxes and shipping) So far I have only hooked it up installed the system update and played around with some of the features. Havent even tried Nintendoland yet. Vamp im going to add you as a Friend. I ordered the Refurbished Wii U directly from Nintendo and besides there being no system stand and Gamepad charger / cradle thingy, there is NO indication WHATSOEVER that its refurbished. System and gamepad were spotless. Everything seemed to be in the original shrink wrap, NintendoLand was fully shrink-wrapped. Only thing I noticed that seemed a bit odd was that the descriptions on the box were in Spanish 1st, English 2nd. Some if the loose packaging that was packaged in with the manual were all in Spanish (the sheet of paper that would normally tell you in big letters to call the help line before you return the product to the store, ect) Im thinking the box (and possibly the system and gamepad itself?) were originally packaged as a Mexican or South American model or something. Nintendo is one company I would buy refurbished with complete confidence. And they must be selling a lot of these refurbs because you can still buy one today from their website, plus the box looks just like what I expected the Deluxe WiiU box to look like, but they printed on the box itself (not a sticker someone slapped on) it says in Spanish / English in big letters Refurbished Product. So they are actually printing a separate box for these Refurbs.
Anyone long story short anyone on the fence about buying a Wii U go buy one:
