Are we sure this isn't an early version of Donkey Kong Country?[edit]

Could this be an early name for Donkey Kong Classics?[edit]

The game being covered in 1987 and early 1988 lines up pretty well with DK Classics' release date of September 1988, and it would also explain why no Japanese sources ever mentioned Return of Donkey Kong as DK Classics was never released in Japan. The blurbs somewhat implying you would play as DK could perhaps be the writers misunderstanding the description of the game given to them ("This is your chance to get a hold of that rascal Donkey Kong and take control!" could've been misinterpreted from something like "This is your chance to get the classic DK games if you missed them originally!") though given the vague and rather awkward language it's hard to tell. This might be a bit too speculatory (we only have two short blurbs to go off of after all) but I felt it'd be worth at least bringing up. --Snessy (talk) 13:05, February 3, 2025 (EST)
