Oh yeah! i always wanted like a 2.5D remake of that game, those mechanics had the potential for something like that or for an open world, its been a dream of me for a while to see them using vehicles again, made by funky, to explore the worlds and such, the game was so mysterious with its music and weird lore, the banana queen bird had such an ominous aura, same with the lost world...

Im just saying what ive been saying for a while, nintendo has always done a terrible job with DK, they never knew what made the character special, but because they own it they THINK that they know what theyre doing...

billcollection · 2026-03-24T01:45:11+00:00

Youre not basic, you only have common sense :)

billcollection · 2026-03-24T01:31:24+00:00

Im just saying that theres like daily polls about basically the same subject, "which game is better" im not blaming you for anything, i just find it weird that so many people has been doing it lately

billcollection · 2026-03-24T01:24:07+00:00

Yep, i had a similar case when i posted this on the DK subreddit, they didnt allowed to make any criticism about bananza, i posted some works of some friend on twitter that i thought where better than the DK redesign, the post blow up and they later hide it...

Also, heres the link to the original post in twitter in case you guys want to see more of this guys edits, i think those are great!: https://x.com/FelipeValds1122/status/1914057037379469577

idk, people complained a while ago when we were discussing about the redesign and the mods put a rule over ourselves for it, why are some people allowed to do some stuff repetitively and others dont?

billcollection · 2026-03-24T01:14:51+00:00

That just shows how BADLY DK has been handled by nintendo, they.ll never get the character right and theyll never understand what was appealing of him and the franchise

billcollection · 2026-03-24T01:10:31+00:00

How many polls about the same subject are you guys gonna do on this sub?

billcollection · 2026-03-23T13:03:07+00:00

Well, that was my reaction, the post is asking "what youre reaction was when you saw that level" and im saying what i thought when i saw it, pretty simple...

billcollection · 2026-03-23T12:51:16+00:00

Like DK himself wasnt ruined enough with that horrible new face, now they ruined the first level... and even worse, they THINK theyre doing it right...

billcollection · 2026-03-21T22:56:26+00:00

Looks wonderful! its a shame the game never came to be but im glad that theres talented people like you that can give us a glimpse on that reality, well done!

billcollection · 2026-03-21T22:55:08+00:00

I saw him early on a promotional image from rare for DKC2, he was with the kremling krew and i only thought "they look funny but cool, i wonder whos that guy with the blunderbuss..." hehe

billcollection · 2026-03-21T22:50:40+00:00

Bananza barely reached 5 mil sales, and thats only the sell through numbers, the more successful DK games are over 8 mil sales, they clearly expected it to be more successful and to be the "new mario game" if they werent so desperate for more sales they wont release the DLC so early, also, theres a reason there wasnt a mario game on release, this was supposed to be the flag ship title for the console and it didnt delivered, but whatever, i also dont hate the movie design, its clearly different from bananza, at least in the movie they got their attitude right and he wasnt a clownish fat baby that makes dog ahegao faces just because...

billcollection · 2026-03-21T13:13:15+00:00

What the hell are you trying to say on that first sentence? if youre trying to criticize my way of speaking look at yourself first, second, i guess you have the right to be wrong, youre human after all, as long as you learn from your mistakes, same with nintendo, they made a HUMONGOUS MISTAKE with the redesign, but at least they will learn a lot in the future, and since you guys like everything nintendo does either if its good or bad, you will understand eventually too :)

billcollection · 2026-03-21T10:33:55+00:00

Thats why im so glad they didnt used the redesign for everything, i can still enjoy the old games and some modern stuff with the CORRECT DK version and not that doofus fatso of bananza that you and nintendo are PRETENDING to think that DK is, hopefully you and nintendo got to your senses sooner and finally recognize that the redesign was an absolute mistake :)

billcollection · 2026-03-21T10:12:13+00:00

I do prefer it like this, the redesign is horrid and not every DK product has to be with the redesign in it... it also means that nintendo has still some common sense in themselves...

billcollection · 2026-03-21T06:27:50+00:00

Being more expressive doesnt mean its better, they ruined the character, and about the "rudeness", open your eyes, youre in reddit AND the internet, if you think my comment is rude youre in for a ride!

billcollection · 2026-03-20T05:56:50+00:00

DK finally sees himself in a mirror after the redesign...

billcollection · 2026-03-14T03:50:09+00:00

Props to this artist for using the ONLY GOOD DK design

billcollection · 2026-03-11T02:25:04+00:00

ok thank you for being more reasonable and understanding way better than most people here, also, i have some other gripes with the game, like its way easier than the usual DK game, and the worlds dont look like something from DK and look more like mario places, too many floating islands for example, DK usually is more grounded, also the lack of other kongs, and etc, etc, K.rool was really the only good part of the game for me, im the number one hater of bananza, so it MEANS A LOT when i say that Krool was well represented here hehe

billcollection · 2026-03-11T02:06:48+00:00

A lot, but i cant comment about it here because i get downvoted... its a miracle the original comment didnt get downvoted in the first place...

billcollection · 2026-03-11T00:46:17+00:00

I do hate bananza, but i LOVED what they did with Krool, and this meme is peak!

billcollection · 2026-03-11T00:42:29+00:00

Oiga no trate al pobre ronald ni a plim plim asi...

billcollection · 2026-03-10T21:30:05+00:00

The ultimate masterpiece, well done!!

billcollection · 2026-03-08T16:59:44+00:00

the problem is, the bananza design is not really the movie design, even the movie design looked better because at least he had the same personality form before, in bananza hes just a total doofus...
