It seems weird, but it's just small scale Donkey Kong

We had Donkey Kong 64, then Donkey Kong Country Returns, now Super Mario Kart (which DK Jr was in).

I wouldn't be against them making their version of games in rapid succession like Donkey Kong Country 1 (1994), 2 (1995) & 3 (1996), or also making Banjo Kazooie (1998), Donkey Kong 64 (1999), Banjo Tooie (2000). But it's clear they just can't make as many games that fast, so we get just one every few years.
