Boy, we see eye to eye on a lot of things. I hated the Wii version too. I did manage to beat it, but was frustrated pretty much the whole time playing it. Not only was it sadistically designed, but it didn't "feel" like a Donkey Kong Country game to me
Hope the sequel is better

I haven't yet, although I've been interested in this as well. I didn't have any issues or frustrations with the Wii version, but I do think I'd be more likely to play the 3DS version.
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.

The 3DS version is definitely superior except graphically (it's still nice though).
I beat the 3DS version a few days ago and thought it was great. Be sure to play it with headphones! Controls worked very well, although DK still has way more inertia than he did in the earlier games.

Assuming Nintendo is publishing it i'd bet on a physical release.

oh yeah I forgot Nintendo handles the Layton games in the west.
I still can't believe this fan pandering game was even made . Specially since back when it was announced it was our only hope for a future Phoenix game (which we are getting )

Yeah, as a new fan of both series I'm pretty excited too.
I for one will be buying AA:DD and PLVSAA as soon as they hit the eShop. Considering Shu Takumi himself was the main designer behind the latter I'm sure it will be great.
As for DKCR on Wii, the game is definitely a mixed bag. Lots of clever level ideas and nice graphics, but the inertia in the character movement causes landing problems not to mention the accidental waggle-roll deaths. The 3DS is probably the way to go for reliable controls.

I found the level design dull and repetetive. Didn't have any waggle-roll deaths. Quite the opposite in fact. Had many "did not register waggle attack so I end up running face first into the enemy" deaths.
