I personally really liked the music for Haunted Woods, Star City, Greeenwood Village, Crescent Island, and Frosty Village.

Uh...wrong? If you can't appreciate how incredible the character select music is, particularly the unique instrumentation for each character, then you've no right to pass judgement on any of songs in the soundtrack.

I hope Kiddy Kong and the 3 from DK64 burn in the pits of hell. We don't need to see any of them again. The Kong characters they were creating were god awful.

They should simply stick to Donkey, Diddy, Dixie, Cranky and Funky and forget the rest.

I am not gonna lie, I love Lanky Kong, I think he has more to offer in gameplay, than Dixie and Funky. He should be pushed as a playable character in the next DK returns.

Not much of a fan of Kiddy or Chunky or Tiny tho.

Kiddy Kong is called Dinky Kong in Japan.

Every Kong after Dixie has been horrible. They should have just stuck to that trio.

Dixie was acceptable because she's a female Kong and works well with Diddy. Once they started going with overgrown babies (Kiddy), redneck hillbillies (Lanky), clones (Tiny), and whatever the hell Chunky is supposed to be, it went downhill.

Thank god Nintendo got rid of all those other awful Kongs and only brought back Dixie.

Meh, I still like the fact they have families. That's why I don't mind the other Kongs so much.

Indeed. How many other game evidences such care put into the character selection music? That's attention to detail.

Since this rumor is already a couple years running, I really doubt there's a DKR2 coming soon. However, I would be greatly excited if it did. I maybe in the minority, but on the Wii U, I prefer Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed to the more warmly received Mario Kart 8, mostly because the implementation of water and air racing modes reminder me of the uniqueness of Diddy Kong Racing.

The problem was, they wanted Dixie to be the main kong of DKC 3, and they couldn't have DK ( the main star) play second fiddle to Dixie, so a clone was created.

It was ok for the most part. I don't hate Kiddy, Chunky or tiny, but they are not on the level of the trio and Lanky.

I do hate all those swanky kongs and other characters like him tho.
