Yawn. It's just another Microsoft event at E3, and, after the crap they just pulled with Rare, why the hell should we care about what they have to offer? It turns out Team Dakota, developers of Project Spark, gave us one reason.

What do Donkey Kong Universe fans look like on the eve of E3 one year AFTER they got a new Donkey Kong Country game at E3, trying to push away the sinking feeling they're getting nothing this year? Chad, Hyle, and Matt Cornah are the focus of this scientific study. One is unrelenting in his abrasive negativity, one is deluded by a misplaced and foolish sense of optimism and the other is Matt! Can you guess who's who? It's the first of three daily Kongversations!

As Donkey Kong fandom gets ready for yet another E3, we close the book on formal Tropical Freeze discussion by giving our final thoughts on the game. How does it rank in the grand lineage of the Donkey Kong Country franchise? Hyle is joined by special guest Joe Mudd (who was there when we first learned about the game last year) before Chad and his wife Janell join the proceedings to give their perspective on co-op.

Just as fans were yet again letting themselves get optimistic about Rare's situation under Microsoft, Microsoft has made fools of us all by letting a large number of employees go. Needless to say, Chad and Hyle are not terribly pleased by this turn of events.

Wolfpack rejoice! Chad and Hyle check back in with Tom Bennett and James Guy from Left Handed Studios to see how development has been going on the indie 3D platformer Lobodestroyo! The interview touches on the financial realities of receiving a lump sum of money, the development process thus far, and philosophical waxings about game design in general. We touch on a lot, including each other!

We've made it! Hyle and Chad finish off discussing World 6, and what lies beyond, in Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze! What do they think of the final boss? Will a continuity debate about the origins and meaning of a particular in-game landmass end their friendship? Will the episode start with a pointless political debate that ultimately goes nowhere? What's the meaning of life? Can you believe we've milked Tropical Freeze discussion for as long as we have?

We take a one week interlude from our Tropical Freeze World 6 discussion to tackle this week's final Mario Kart 8 reveals and the delightful outrage it's causing. Mmm, there's nothing like a good old-fashioned bitch fest!

As they get closer to discussing the finale of Tropical Freeze, Chad and Hyle cover the first eight stages of World 6 in part one of a two-parter that will take them to the very end of the game!

Recorded on April 20th, this episode saw a convergence of Easter, 4/20, and, of course, Hitler's birthday. Really, a perfect day to resume discussion of Tropical Freeze, no?

The return of Kremlings! Hyle and Jeff discuss Kritters (and Tiki Buzzes) appearing in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, as well as the other Donkey Kong-centric Smash news revealed in the latest Nintendo Direct. Also, Jeff has a fit over Pokémon or something.
