After watching the DK Bananza Direct, I'm 💯 sold (www.youtube.com)

This game has been on my radar since its initial announcement, but I've been on the fence because I was worried it was just a Mario game without Mario.

But after watching the direct a little bit ago, I'm convinced this game is going to be a pinch of Mario, a pinch of Zelda, and just a whole bucket of fun.

REALLY excited to pick this up day of release.

It was the same for me! I thought it looked interesting from what we had seen before, but I wasn't convinced. It looked like the concept was fun, but there wouldn't be enough to keep you entertained for long.

After watching the Direct, I'm definitely getting this on release day too! I also got some Zelda vibes, like I could spend a lot of time exploring the different stages (as I do in BotW and TotK).

That Mario Artist like mini-game with the sculptures looks like a fun time sink!
