Everyone hoped Donkey Kong’s arch nemesis King K. Rool would make a triumphant return in the new DK Bananza, and you go it. And, after the release of the new Donkey Kong and Pauline amiibo, Nintendo has decided to issue a re-release of the King K. Rool amiibo in celebration – you can pre-order it right now.
Originally released as part of the Super Smash Bros. Series, but since becoming very hard to get your hands on at anything less than an exorbitant price online – you can buy one on Amazon for $73 if you want – Nintendo is bringing the cruel king back for another round.
Pre-orders for the re-released King K. Rool amiibo (no longer designated as part of the Super Smash Bros. series) are now live at Best Buy for $19.99.
K. Rool made his first appearance way back in 1994’s Donkey Kong Country, only to make a return in what many are calling the real Switch 2 system-seller, Donkey Bananza.
If you’re looking to complete (or start) your Bananza amiibo collection, the next mini Nintendo figure is now up for grabs.
While it isn’t entirely clear what the new released version of the amiibo will actually do in Bananza, if anything new at all, the previously-released version spawns the same throwable and explosive gold KONG tiles other DK series amiibo deliver.
