Is she Pauline's daughter?

Is she Pauline's daughter?

bbUQZ4g.jpg - 884x663, 264.07K

no that's donkey kong

Donkey Kong is male
he will never be a woman

Why are people trying to act like this doesn't look like the best 3d platformer in over a decade?

It's either Pauline's origin story, or Mario's child support arch.

I haven't seen many videos, but from what I have seen, the idea is that the player has abilities to deform the terrain, and this is used as a central factor in exploration. It's like Minecraft, but without the building part.
I don't think platforming is the foundation of the game. Like Zelda TOTK, the point of the game is to explore the world, and DK's tools are the ability to destroy and shape the terrain, instead of building machines like Link does.

It's not Pauline's origin story because Cranky is there.
This and the next 3D Mario are going to be the best games on the Switch 2.

3d platformer

Is it really though? Seems like you just climb and smash through the world with no real platforming.

no silver backside

That's a female

its just the new kirby but dk now i understand why you are happy but best 3d platformer in a decade is pretty crazy to say without playing the game at all

the thing is, destroying stuff and picking shit up enhances your moveset with more jumps, surfboard, etc
aside from that, its a platformer like dk64 is

In September when we can look back in retrospect I'm curious if people will consider round eyes or blue arms the more autistic shitfit

Everyone seems to be jumping to the conclusion of a daughter. What if its her little sister?

Or they fuck with the timeline and Jumpman and "Lady" aren't actually Mario and Pauline

I can't wait for Mario and Pauline to get back together.

God she's so fucking hot

A lot of people seem to be ignoring that this is definitely Nintendo’s way of making an “origin story” of sorts for DK. It’s no coincidence that them forcing a design that harkens back to DK’s pre-Rare days is being headlined in a game that includes the guy’s first “lady crush” long before the Country games even existed. Nintendo truly wants to wipe the DK slate clean and only include the material THEY want to canonize.

feels more like an action adventure game with platform elements

How do you square that with the seeming implication that the Kremlings are back and Cranky considers King K Rool DK's rival?

and old enemies are fossils

That's because Cranky is a singularity, there is only one.

Mario and Pauline kinda look like siblings

I fucking hate prequels, I hope it's just a beam that makes you a small child

I swear, I'm seeing a lot of people on here, twitter, YouTube, reddit, doing some sort of mental gymnastics because they don't want to consider that Mario has moved on from Peach and started a family with Pauline.

God I would get so much use out of that beam.

But Pauline's age already doesn't make sense tho, Cranky is old as fuck while Pauline hasn't aged in Odyssey, and you're entering a schizo territory if you think Odyssey is set in the past, and canonically Cranky is young in Odyssey.
If you think in common sense, it's pretty clear Nintendo doesn't really care about matching timelines for Pauline and Cranky, while Cranky is the classic Donkey Kong, Pauline is Pauline, she might have not been the same person young Cranky kidnapped, the one Cranky kidnapped might have been someone else with the same name.
It's rumored that the final boss is K.Rool for the new game, and I have a feeling they have an intention to set the game as a prequel to show how his rivalry with Donkey Kong started, thus young Pauline.
It's also natural for them to make Pauline match timeline with Donkey Kong instead of Cranky if they have the intention to reboot her character as well.

Anon, the Mareacher's days are numbered.

What are the laws on if someone is an adult but you beam them back down into a child?

It’s Red Faction: Gorilla.

If it went to court it would be considered fine, there's no laws on "apparent age" or anything like that

she mogs peach pretty hard

This is an absolutely baffling twist with no conceivable context in line with how Nintendo would handle anything like this. All we can really do is wait until they deign to release a second trailer.

I don't give a fuck about that kid, just reveal if K. Rool is in the game or not and stop trying to build suspense or 'surprises'.

I believe that Nintendo will jump the shark.

There's no way it's pauline's daughter. she's probably Pauline being turned into a loli or a sibling.

This. Do you lads get more of a Barbossa or a Davy Jones vibe from Kaptain K. Rool?

Because I hate the game's design for donkeykong. I would prefer it if they stuck with the way he normally looks

filename

if there's anything more pathetic than shipping wars then it's a one-sided shipping war

They're just removing the "Cranky was original DK" aspect and people aren't clocking it yet

No, she's Diddy Kong's replacement

He mentions his old rivalry with Mario in his dialogue in this game.

Nintendo wants to BURY THE KONGS!!!

Then why is every Nintendo Store in Japan filled with Diddy merch

Apes have shorter lifespans than humans

Not that much shorter.

It's unlikely that this will be the first time meeting k rool.
Crankey in game already basically mentions him.

It'll be her niece, just like how Diddy Kong is DK's nephew.

If crankey was 30 when he kidnapped Pauline its totally possible. For him to be an only man in only 10 years

only man

Old man

Delete this.

Does he specifically mention Mario, or just Jumpman? Because the movie already made him a separate character

If she is, this would make Mareachers go nuclear, which I'm all for. Fuck those pedantic faggots, they really drag the fandom down with their incessant obsession.

that they are normal. the ones that deserve the rope are those bowser/peach cucks

WHERE
THE
FUCK
IS
DIDDY

Why do Nintendo games feature lolis so often?
Off the top of my head:

this game

splatoon series

zelda series (botw with purah, maybe twilight princess if you count midna)

tons of fire emblem characters

tons of pokemon characters

warioware

xenoblade has a few

Jailed for eating unripe bananas

it's her sister

it's in the past

The obvious answer is that since music is important, the little rock turned into someone DK knows who is musically inclined to help
And tiny rock = tiny Pauline

?Pauline having a daughter doesn't mean it's with mario

Yet;
- Diddy Kong isnt seen in Bananza
- Diddy Kong isn't seen in Mario Kart World
- Diddy Kong only appeared in MK8 in the absolute final DLC pack
- Even though Diddy and Banjo are playable in Smash, there is absolutely no mention of Diddy Kong Racing, not in music or spirits.

its just the new kirby but dk

Forgotten Land? The two don't look anything alike

Assumptions are daughter, niece, or some other relative of Pauline because of the freckles. It would be more likely to be de-aged Pauline if they also changed adult Pauline's look, but she doesn't have freckles in Mario Kart World.

dumped

(laughs)

I now picture a sad, drunken Pauline in a seedy bar quietly singing Jump Up Superstar in-between sobs.

Probably niece or little cousin since Nintendo still insists everyone in Mario is like 22 years old

some people lose their freckles when they age

in a word "snoys"
in two words "brown people"

Mario BLJs away from her

How big is DK? like 6'0?

if you want the actual answer it’s just because Japan likes cute things. if you want the based answer it’s because nintendo are cunny chads uooooooohhhh ToT ( | )

loli pauline is SEX

Make her parallel DK and Diddy by being Pauline's niece.

This. It's going to be something that will have no actual impact on or implications for the actual Pauline, a pristine, hermetically sealed Super Mario brand product.

where do you think you are? this landfill hates every new game and it especially hates nintendo games

Sex sells.

She does but I would stil dump my entire balls inside her easily.i like Daisy more too, but Peach is a classic

There is still the possibility that Odd Rock is actually Peach's daughter and that Odd Rock has musical talent because Mario told her about his visit to Pauline's concert.

Maybe it's just a cursed spell that turns regular Pauline into a child again

Why are you coping so hard with your mental gymnastics?

Pauline must have gotten dumped (laughs)

I am forever fascinated by the weird trend of Japanese game devs laughing at the misfortunes that their characters go through.

Who said Mario is involved? Loline is clearly the result of Pauline taking the BDC.

While it would be pretty fitting for it to be Pauline Jr. I doubt that they would do it. More likely is that it is just Pauline, but still partially sealed by that Void CO bracelet. Nintendo probably wanted to give her more lime light and a team up with Donkey Kong after Odyssey showed that she didn't have fond memories of when she was kidnapped.

How rude.
Also, that doesn't make sense.

Mario bred this?

9- Pauline.jpg - 2004x3097, 1.53M

Either her or Peach.

nintendo

touching mario's status quo

ever

That loli looks nothing like Peach, mom is definitely Pauline

I bet if there were a Bananza Direct, and the voiceover guy says "This is Mario's daughter." that everyone in the NYC Nintendo Store would lose their minds.

real platforming

that doesn't mean anything

But Mario has brown hair.

Riz has a bit of samebody going on, but fuck me if it isn't a good samebody

And it's not financially viable to just pull all the Diddy related merch or any merch that resembles DKC or has any ties with Rare's DK just to push this one game. They aren't that dumb to just go full scorched earth. That calendar shows that they'll keep him around in some form, just not in any recent games unfortunately.

He'll definitely be in Bananza considering all the monkeys that look like him

Gorillas have tiny microdicks though

are dkfags nintendo's equivalent of sonic fans? I don't think there's any comparable fanbase among tendies that has this kind of insufferable autism about shit no one cares about like the deep lore of a cartoon ape universe

There is no deep lore, it's all a bunch of memes.

Yes, Rare stuff is their equivalent of Archie stuff

Donkey Kong Bananza may begin a new shift in Mario lore.
That is why we are all so excited.

-All- excited? Dude most people are still flipping shit over the eyebrows if they do anything weird to Kremlings it'll be an autism shitstorm

Agreed, remember how insanely autistic they went during Wonder because they thought the prince looked similar to the boy Peach married in the old Mario movie? Genuinely what causes this behavior, and over Mario no less.

Sure but I don't that's an angle nintendo is working with

Well it's going to be an even bigger one when Nintendo reveals that Mario and Pauline have a daughter.

Being concerned about a questionable change in direction for a franchise that's been in limbo twice over is being autistic

These are the fans who want the best for DK and want to support the series, but at the same time are properly cautious that the work put in to bring DK back in the spotlight (AKA Smash) was all for nothing. They're not just going to say 10/10 TAKE MY MONEY.

Having standards is a good thing and shouting down those people only makes you look worse.

a questionable change in direction

there's nothing questionable it looks like a lot of fun and will easily become the best selling entry in the series, you're a middle aged sperg

Lmao if you think they are gunna do that shit

I will buy the game so I can help Mario and Pauline.
I think we all should adopt that perspective.
Who wants to help Mario and Pauline?

I believe they will.

are you retarded? have you zelda fags with the timeline shit or fire emblem fags? you're a retarded tranny.

the donkeykongkike recoils as he's found out

That's what I'm talking about; anything short of praise and you go on with insults and ad hominems.

Lmao

Would you guys be mad if Nintendo revealed that Mario has a daughter with Pauline?

newfaggot trying to fit in

dk fags aren't even as close to being as autistic as paper mario fags or zelda fags or fire emblem fags you stupid retard

I dunno try asking 4 more times

so mad he quoted twice

lmao

Not even close? That would be Pokefags

Do you not want to answer?

I don't really buy Mario and Peach's relationship anymore, so I am all for Mario having a daughter with Pauline.

Petch.png - 1280x705, 197.95K

We heard you the last 5 times

all you're gonna get from Nintendo is that "Pauline Jr" is actually Mini Pauline from a point past in time.
Enjoy!

Calling DK fans autistic when there are shippers bitching in this same thread

Nice try, took me a while to catch on.

snoys are seething at this

Why do you keep saying that?

Who is the father?
DK?

Crankey

Mario.

Me.

Japs laugh when they're nervous.

wtf i'm japanese?
