cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 10/07/2026POV: You're working a 100% commission-based sales job and Nintendo tells you to sell monkey game Donkey Kong grossed $111 million in FY 1982, a big jump from $4.7 million from the year prior 010
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 09/07/2026In a deposition, Miyamoto described Donkey Kong's design as a human wearing a monkey suit lol Happy 45th Donkey Kong Thank you for uploading this treasure trove of entertainment @gaminghistorian.bsky.social 050
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 09/07/202645 Years of Donkey This game was Nintendo's canon event 1121
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Donkey Kong: Time to Monkey has officially been released 051
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Interesting- I wonder why Donkey Kong Bananza isn't taking off in Japan. 281
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Nintendo has completed the infinity gauntlet of going back to a game. We have now the perfect guide for if a game is a remaster, remake etc. I present the Starfox Scale. 6191101
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 27/03/2026So nice of Nintendo to greenlight my entire wish list for the Switch 2 lineup Starfox my beloved 030
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 17/03/2026Playing Mario 64 DS and listening to Childish Gambino at the same time hits different in 2026 041
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 27/02/2026This is what happens when you move into the building where they made Donkey Kong Bananza. They have flipped the Pokemon narrative 130
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 05/02/2026If we’ve learned anything today, we’ve learned the Switch 2 is the DEFINITIVE system to play games where a small girl perches on your shoulder while you commit acts of violence 0247
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 03/02/2026Zelda Breath of the Wild after 8 months: 4.7 million Donkey Kong Bananza after 5.5 months: 4.25 million DK had a holiday window in there but wow DK is so back gamers. We'll see if it's legs are more like Luigi's Mansion or BOTW, but it's looking nice so far TY @axelsaurus.bsky.social for the tip! 0102
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 03/02/2026Bananza is selling at about the same rate as Splatoon 2 did in 2017 DK: 4.25million from July 17th - December 31st Splatoon 2: 4.91million from July 21st - December 31st It will be interesting to see if it gets a second wind from the supposed 2028 movie release 192
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 25/01/2026Make Bowser playable = more sales. It's just that simple gamers 090
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 25/01/2026Gamers have you noticed that the best selling Mario RPGs of each kind- Rabbids, Paper Mario, and Mario & Luigi games have one thing in common? 392
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 21/01/2026THEY FIXED IT THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO ADVOCATED FOR THIS 833374
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 15/01/2026KOLLAB ALERT @snorcaorca.bsky.social does these cool videos figuring out what real creatures correspond to the Gnawties and Zingers we're bopping in the DKC series. I had to jump into one of them, check it out and sub if you like the content! 162
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 09/01/2026DIDDY IS BACK! I love his design 😭 You can tell he’s been touched up but he’s still our boy. 240
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 02/01/2026Nintendo ad campaigns are very sanitized these days.…. Perhaps its for the best 020
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 16/12/2025Sandfall: "We were funded by the French government and a publisher" The Gamers: 130
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 12/12/2025I love indie gaming #TheGameAwards You know it’s indie when they say “I want to thank our publisher” 071
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 07/11/2025I haven't seen people talking about the pace of DK Bananza's sales, so here's a comparison of the recent results up against the first few financial reports for the Switch 1: BOTW: 3.92mil / 4months MK8D: 3.54mil / 2.25mo Splatoon 2: 3.61mil / 2.5mo Bananza: 3.49mil / 2.5mo 2111
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 07/10/2025I’m gonna guess they had to limit scope immensely going from being the killer app of a home grown system to a multi plat releases 020
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 06/08/2025Nintendo could retcon the guy with the red hat to be grandpa Jumpman, but would they? 100
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 16/06/2025It's almost time to REALLY find out what this game is about. 140
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 14/06/2025I swear lightning in this game is like a reverse blue shell lol Also peep the net code issue 000
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 06/06/2025Why is the most lame way to drive through this the fastest 120
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 12/04/2025New Switch 2 games like Mario Kart and DK don't seem that crazy given inflation. The real issue is that wages don't keep up with inflation, but it's easier to yell at the Nintendo Treehouse than the government I guess lol The real scam is the upgrade packs. They want $90 for BOTW I can't 030
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 10/04/2025Why are we getting Donkey Kong instead of 3D Mario? youtu.be/bO0GfNnPrKU 042
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 10/04/2025The claim is that Tony Harman had to fly to Japan and convince Yamauchi to give him 3mil to create a good game outside of Japan 110
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 02/04/20253D Donkey Kong at launch or holiday to tie into the theme park. 3D Mario late this year or early next to tie into the movie New Zelda in 2027 to tie into that movie It just makes sense 000
cottrello.bsky.social @cottrello.bsky.social · 01/04/2025All stocked up on snacks for the Nintendo Direct. 140
