Rare talk Donkey Kong, and the DS
News - Developer focussing on Natal for now
Speaking to their community this week, developer Rare have said that they aren't sure why Nintendo have yet to release Donkey Kong 64 on the Virtual Console, while at the same time refusing to rule out a return to the DS.
Rare said that they are too busy crafting motion control games for Natal at present, but that this doesn't mean an end to DS titles.
"I have no idea why DK64 hasn't shown up yet. Who knows? Not us, obviously, or we wouldn't be sitting here pitching clueless alternatives," offers word from the firm.
"If DK64 is being made for DS, this is the first we've heard about it Similarly, there was never any solid word on [Jet Force Gemini] being lined up for XBLA release."
"Natal is a pretty big deal and needs a lot of attention," Rare conclude on the prospect of new DS titles. Thanks Eurogamer.
