I just got back from the Nintendo World store in New York and the DKC Tropical Freeze event was pretty cool. They gave away free DK ties and some banana pudding to the costumers in the store. There were also some DKC:TF decorations but most of the store still has some of the decorations from the Super Mario 3D World event I went to last November. There was even a bubble gum bubble blowing contest where someone has to blow a bubble gum bubble to win a prize, which is a free keychain(this contest is based Dixie Kong's waiting animation from DKC 1 & 2 and her bubble gum gun in DKC:TF). There was also a big Donkey Kong statue on display at the stairs area as well. And finally..... Donkey Kong was in the store for photos. Yay! I got to meet DK! He was just walking around the store and acting a bit like....well, a monkey.
I got to wear my DK hat and brought my big DK plush backpack in the store. Some people in the store actually likes my DK plush backpack, especially DK.
I didn't buy too much stuff with the game. I got:
-Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze(Wii U)
-Small DK plush(to match the size of my Diddy Kong plush since my old DK plush from the N64 era is very small compare to it)
-Free DK tie(it also has the DKC:TF logo on the back)
I'll be uploading the photos very soon.
As for the game......I think it's AWESOME! I've been playing it nonstop. It's just as difficult as DKC Returns(possibly harder but not sure since I haven't unlock every level yet....) and the boss fights are a little longer than the ones in Returns. It also has AMAZING HD visuals and an EPIC soundtrack done by the original DKC 1 & 2 composer, David Wise.
How far I'm at the game right now? Well......
I've already beaten the final boss. But I still got to get all of the collectibles and find all of the secret exits though.
10 Years at DeviantArt
Today marks my 10th DeviantArt Anniversary!:party: Wow! I can't believe it's been THAT long now!:wow: Time really flies when you're making art and wait for upcoming Nintendo stuff.
I still remember when I first discovered this site back at 2010. It was my "Shy Gal" sister(~EMMYtheK (https://www.deviantart.com/emmythek)) who actually introduced this site to me in the first place. After I made my account and eventually uploaded some drawings, I met several awesome online friends over the years.:D
I'll admit this site is not perfect. There were times where I had to deal with some drama, rude\annoying comments, and even blocking users.:X But hey, not every site is perfect. :t

Today marks my 9th DA Anniversary! :party: Can't believe next year is going to be the big 1-0!:faints: Where did the years go?!:lmao:
I'll try to draw more but I've been busy with work nowadays.:blush: However I am drawing a little bit more now(already did two Donkey Kong artworks and a Shy Guy comic for one of DA friends' birthday this year.

Especially since I'm actually doing my artworks on Colors 3D on my New

The speed at which you beat the game is amazing XD How many hours did it take you? XD
Just curious, but do you not have school/work that'd prevent you from putting so many hours in gaming? Or do you just manage time uber-well? XD
I'm glad you had fun!!! Any other events you'll be going to soon?
