I've been playing this, and I dislike how Cranky Kong will just say his own name as if he's a Pokemon. It's weird AF. The classic mode has definitely been a fun challenge though. The levels you unlock after you get all the KONG letters in every stage in a world are particularly tough.
Also in classic mode the way the health works in single player is you start with 2 hearts while playing as Donkey Kong, and if you pick up another Kong from a barrel then they upgrade you to 4. If you get hit twice then you lose your other character, and downgrade back to 2 hearts.
I think bringing this to the Switch was a really good idea, and if you've never played it then it's worth picking up. Even at the $60 price point.
