So the actual 2D art barely looks different, then why does the new 3D model have this weird looking donut in his face? The new brow ridge is too round and protrudes too much on the sides
The 2D art also still has the perma scowl AND the two brow folds in the corners, so why doesn't the new 3D model?
even the new 2d looks onions'd. old 2d > new 2d > old 3d >>> shit >>> new 3d
It's the expressions that make it cringe.
He literally looks like an extra chromosome retard now
ok wtf
I imagine his eyes rotating and cycling like a loading symbol
the two brow folds in the corners
That's a big part of what makes DK's design so brilliant and so much more memorable than most other cartoon monkeys. The completely round ridge looks like shit.
lowbrow vs highbrow
Did they forget Monkey Kong is literally Mario's oldest enemy? He is a bad guy that kidnaps women.
Too much of New Kong's eye space (that brown part, whatever it's called) is showing. The eyes being together and way less round makes it look like they're not really inside his head, which gets highlighted by how flexible the new brow is.
this is what you will get and you will like it, heugh heugh heugh
I refuse to believe grown men are acting like Chrischan over Donkeykong.
no you can't have standards and criticize a huge random change of a 30 year old mascot whose games you care about
2 cents
Unironically what were they thinking?
What the fuck bottom is almost the same, did they outsource Bananza?
looks like a cheep cheep
just more cultural graffiti and vandalization of our childhood
and the stutters, the game stutters a lot
he's just like me
same energy
I'm not gonna lie, I feel like the Donkey Kong Country games are really, really good but they don't feel like Donkey Kong.
He's a gigantic ape who punches with the force of a literal freight train when he's just doing lovetaps, him being unable to punch on command seems like a move they really missed out on for a long time
Gorillas don't actually punch, they are some of the most chill animals too
The point I'm making is that having this giant ape do precision platforming where he dies in 2 hits and primarily jumps on enemies, rolls into them, or throws barrels at them feels kinda... Unfitting
He's a gigantic ape who punches with the force of a literal freight train
zoomer revisionism
DK rolls and jumps.
And from the very beginning that felt like a very odd design choice.
Why wouldn't you do some kind of pseudo-beat em up with him? Feels more fitting to such a brutish character
Why do people insist on having K.Rool back?
The name "Donkey Kong" Came as a variation on "King Kong." They chose the word Donkey specifically because it related to ugliness, stupidity and stubbornness. He SHOULD be a little ugly.
Jungle Beat is a great little gem that has a lot of punching. The new DKC games as well in short cathartic bursts.
Why wouldn't you do some kind of pseudo-beat em up with him?
Because beat em ups are the most boring video game genre there is maybe.
This is the single biggest fucking nothing burger I have ever seen in my entire fucking life
What an absolute fucking nontroversy.
It's so fucking stupid I'm half convinced it's just an act orchestrated by discord niggers from some third world shithole addicted to their own cortisol.
Snort raw lye you stupid fucking niggers.
I think we should be more focused on the new lore that Donkey Kong Bananza will give us.
We should buy the game so we can help return Odd Rock to Mario and Pauline.
Why not just let people use both designs?
I don't care if my favorite characters are being raped and if you care then I will screech
OK cool
Because it's a game for toddlers and they don't give a shit.
You get what I mean right?
I think we should be more focused on the new lore that Donkey Kong Bananza will give us.
Maybe if you have autism
Don't we all?
No only you. Nintendo just casually raped the entire Zelda timeline with TotK and you think they give a shit about the """"""""""""""""""""Donkey Kong lore"""""""""""""""""" if such a thing was ever even a concept. Kill yourself
only the most autistic manchildren imaginable give a fuck about the zelda timeline
Oh this isn't about the Donkey Kong lore, I have reason to believe that the Mini-Pauline character is actually Mario and Pauline's daughter.
And everyone else is making up theories involving time-travel or de-aging magic because they don't think Mario may have actually moved on from Peach.
raped the entire Zelda timeline with TotK
Fake Zelda lore fan.
All the real loreheads know Wind Waker did that.
All the real loreheads know Wind Waker did that.
How?
I can't believe Mario's a fucking deadbeat dad
We'll just have to find out what happens by playing Donkey Kong Bananza, that's why I'm getting a Switch 2.
Nintendo doesnt care much about coherent lore, but I still see the possibility of little girl being Mario's daughter
OOT's future was supposed to lead into the Imprisoning War and then LTTP.
Wind Waker hijacked the timeline by taking LTTP's place, causing it devolve into its infamously retarded state. Specifically, the first four games (and the Oracle games) were effectively severed from continuity because of this change.
This would later lead to the retarded third timeline being created just to shove the loose games back in so they could sell the Hyrule Historia.
Wow thank you anon now I'm definitely getting the Switch 2™© from Nintendo ™© now only 700 dollars at your nearest Walmart™©.
I am really hoping that Donkey Kong Bananza will segue into the next 3D Mario where we get commentary on Mario and Peach's relationship.
You should actually be excited though, you are getting a Switch 2 because you want to experience brand new Mario lore.
American Donkey Kong is SOUL, Japanese Donkey Kong is SOULLESS
OOT's future was supposed to lead into the Imprisoning War and then LTTP.
Who says this? Doesn't look like it destroyed anything and more like it simply isn't what you want it to be
it's over
Donkey Kong if he dropped on his head as a baby
Who says this?
Your mother.
Why are you so mean?
I TURNED MYSELF INTO A GORILLA MORTY
There have been near hourly threads for the past month about Donkey Kong's eyebrows, you do not have the right to call anybody else autistic.
It is NOT over.
We are about to get the best Mario lore drop in its 44-year history.
if it's so unimportant maybe they shouldn't change it
If you truly cared about this you would kill yourself in protest over it.
Its the eyes
Does anybody want to discuss anything other than DK's eyes?
We already agreed that the new nose, the new tumor mouth and the tongue focus suck too. what's even left
His smile looks weird in MKW.
Well we can come up with theories about lore implications.
the eyes are the worst part because they make no sense. it's the only thing that looks completely different from the concept art
The black void around his eyes gives him actual horror game vibes.
I don't really care about that.
The B-Dasher is in the game, so I'm going to buy it.
But it will suck again and you won't use it
I don't really care about that. The B-Dasher is in the game, so I'm going to buy it.
I've always used the B-Dasher in all of the Mario Kart games.
It's my main for DS, 7, and 8 Deluxe.
Since this is a Mario Kart thread now why do all the new World tracks look like tutorial shit that plays itself?
Wish they’d bring back literally any of the other karts from DS. I want my light-tripper back, simple yet sick design
Who else is excited to see Mario and Pauline get back together?
Who wants to see the Mario timeline get explained by Nintendo?
ironically the donkey kong one looks the most boring, so we are back to topic again
when candy kong lets you watch
Give it some time, they're probably going to introduce a bunch of DLC like they did with Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U.
WW is the one that destroyed the timeline
how?
it wasn't what I wanted it to be!
Your shit falls apart the second someone looks at it sideways, maybe don't phrase it like ti's facts
do people really believe this character is anything other than kid pauline?
calling his mom's headcanon shit
on mother's day
What the FUCK, anon............
They probably don't because they are afraid...
It's your headcanon
Errrrrm, but I literally got it from your mom?
He literally looks like an extra chromosome retard now
With the dungarees they gave him this might be on purpose. Someone edit his face on Lennie
Thanks for reminding me average Anon Babble age is 20 tops and I shouldn't be here
The demo had smart steering on and Demeech, a relatively small channel who's been nothing but an honest critic of MKW giving both praise and criticism when deserved, has said that the new and more complex mechanics take practice to master so don't expect the average person playing to be competent enough to make it look fun or even have the freedom to do so.
what face should be the skinny guy who shoots him?
Your marketer drivel versus my two healthy eyes
diddy
Do we want to help save Mario's daughter from King K. Rool?
Sure why not.
8’s DLC kart selection mostly of crossover karts with the only returning kart being the b-dasher, and 8DX didn’t even get any new karts. MKW has the best chance for it to return given how many other karts are returning but i’m not putting money on any others from DS (aside from the b-dasher since it’s one of the most iconic), much less the light-tripper
Awesome.
I am really looking forward to the next Nintendo Direct.
I think they are going to replace the boxart, so the final boxart will have Mini-Pauline instead of Odd Rock.
The B-Dasher is in.
I posted a screenshot of it.
How do you think Twitter will react to Mario having a daughter with Pauline?
kek doubt I will buy the game but the memes always cracking me up at least
if i didn't know better i'd say this was the loathed character kiddie kong's face. What's with the eyes touching
You should buy the game.
You must save Mario's daughter from King K. Rool and his VoidCo monkeys.
Gameplay looks boring and many people who played it have mixed feelings. It's like Mario Odyssey with moons everywhere, 90% of them no fun or effort to get, the repetitive cutscene every time and instead of fun platforming you get some gimmick
I bought Odyssey so I could watch Mario and Peach get married and watch the lore progress, but I didn't exactly get that. But this time, I will surely watch Mario and Pauline get back together. That will be my reward for defeating King K. Rool.
old
how you goin'
new
u gonna get raped
Me saying Nintendo has bad marketing makes me a marketer?
I just think RoganKong looks like a pathetic bitch is all
MUH EDGY MONKEY
small channel who's been nothing but an honest critic of MKW giving both praise and criticism when deserved,
Whats the name and why is your channel?
The name is right there, it's not my channel, and why is "my" channel what?
Aight, keep your little secrets
I don't know if this makes me come across as hyper autistic but almost no kart in MKW looks appealing to me. The only things that l like are the Dolphin Dasher, the Funky Dorrie, and maybe that new lobster ATV.
I dont want to watch any more footage of MKW to not "spoil" myself. How does the roads between tracks actually work? Under that mode you can only link tracks that are next together? Or you can link amy tracks you want? The reason Im saying this is because after every race, the transition isnt seamless, it cuts after everyone finished and everyone starts the road to the next track at the same time. So maybe I linked 2 tracks far apart, but as soon as I finish the first one it just cuts to the road that leads to the second one (and since every track has multiple roads, it puts you in the one that matches the direction of the first track)
The rare design is better
Not spoonfeeding you, just watch a video fag.
The shills are running out of arguments against DKC, not looking good.
AND the two brow folds in the corners
I really don't understand why they would get rid of them. We don't need Donkey Kong to make retarded sad faces
don't insult Shiggy Kong, soul compared to the shit in Bananza.
Tropical Freeze is so goated, still can't believe journos gave it 7/10s back then (with the main criticism that you have to redo levels when you're game over)
and today platformers no longer even have lives, see odyssey or crash bandicoot 4. tf was an industry changing casual filter
Tinfoil time: DK's retractable teeth garnering attention and becoming a joke is what triggered someone at Nintendo and made them Yezhov the design to replace it with one with permanent teeth. The face change is a diversion tactic to make you ignore the real change
The permanent teeth isn't a problem.
His entire mouth is massive now. It makes him look fatter.
thsi is actual mushmouth retard face. almost makes me think the bananza design is pandering for esg points
pandering for esg points
?????
?????
?????????
?????????
What does this have to do with Donkey Kong?
that conditions like that count as diversity and net you esg points and the new dk looks like a mushmouth retard with a mental condition
the average tendie
It sounds more like you're a mushmouth retard with a mental condition.
being triggered isn't an argument
MK World literally has auto steer and rewind
DK bananza is about tard rage
this
They did it specifically to personally attack you and the rest of the shrieking bitchbabies here on Anon Babble, because it's incredibly amusing watching you all tear off your own dicks and balls in retard rage over absolutely anything and everything.
Actually looks like Nukey Kong
most of the thread is having good time laughing about how shitty the design is
REEEEEE YOU ARE ALL SHRIEKING AND CRYING, I KNOW IT DON'T LIE! REEEEEEEE!
lmaoooooooo
You sound angry
So, Donkey Kong.
So, you.
no no no, we're enjoying our seething rage we've been shrieking ever since the game was announced, we constantly make these threads all day every day because it makes us happy to be forever furious!
You people need some goddamned mental help.
I am the leader of the bunch, yes.
Sorry boys, there was a little too much discussion going on in this thread. Please focus all your replies on the site engagement bots - remember, Anon Babble isn't for discussion, it's for ragebaiting!
They trooned him out
Why does Anon Babble worship trannies so much?
I think it's because trannies generally have no life due to crippling self esteem issues so they all come here
It's the expressions that make it cringe.
The redesign is specifically so he can emote more, which desu sucks and is just another hit against subtlety. OG Donkey Kong had the perfect emotional range for a primitive animal, look closer and you can tell he shows different emotions even by merely moving his monobrow an inch.
DK should've stayed a Retro Studios IP and Nintendo should help them out a lot more
sucks this got canceled, actually looks like exactly the type of game we need more of today - made by real developers and not indie fags
you haven't been paying attention, look around each picture, you're looking at the retard baby paths and not the advanced areas full of wall-jumping, grinding, non-stop combo tricky ramp spots. The people they got for the Treehouse are too casual to do them.
soulless:soul
Doubt facial mobility was the only reason given even the fucking low budget meme TV show figured out how to make him a faux sitcom character without completely changing the design. It's just a flashy new thing Nintendo knows people will be talking about online.
this filthy seth rogan rapeface
the new one can't look authentically angry without something looking off
sexual predator before and after therapy
wall-jumping, grinding, non-stop combo tricky ramp spots.
Those things aren't Mario Kart and they also won't be hard to do
His cheeks and chin are too big. Basically the entire lower half of his face is the problem. He doesn't have this in the 2D renders where they draw his proportions over DK's actual facial proportions but not what he looks like in game.
Here you can see even though he's fatter he still has same eyebrows and lower half of his face. He doesn't look like this at all in Mario Kart or Bananza.
forced outrage
His snout needs to be like 20% smaller
and they also won't be hard to do
But they will be fun though.
Doesn't look like it to me as someone who is good at TH games. Maybe for a few hours but you play MK tracks over and over again. Sharp corners is what's fun in MK
cute cherrypick artworks but he looks like dumb faggot ingame
Reddit comparisons like this that get spammed on social media are pretty cringe. Using models from games that are 20 years old or didn't have 10% the budget isn't fair, whatever you prefer.
In general, the "Rare design" was hardly refined to its full potential, like it never got a big-budget 3D game. It's just conceptually the more charming and unique design that doesn't look like yet another cartoon character. Same goes for Cranky and the others, which is why they won't even touch them. They just changed DK for viral marketing.
New looks better in 3D. Then again, the whole fucking Mario cast looks better in 2D. I wish Nintendo would make a highly stylized 2D game.
soul
New looks better in 3D.
Compared to what? We never saw the OG in an AAA game. I would bet everything that it would look better than this creatura .
New looks better
That middle render isn't even a good or fair comparison. Here's one where he's even in a similar pose and he looks just as inquisitive despite the angry eyebrows.
damn switch 2 graphics are mid
shills know whatt hey are doing
That's literally what nu DK looks like. Someone should draw him over that.
his fur looks so fucking bad now, like feathers... the fuck were they thinking with this
And even what you posted is just a cheap render some rookies slapped together compared to the Bananza budget. The comparisons really should be more about concepts. Though I actually have a soft sport for a lot of the older renders. Something funny about rare DK that he has a lot of unwritten variety, like sometimes they make his mouth all black inside, sometimes they make it look flat and almost Pacman like (picrel) and other times detailed with teeth just like the new one.
Well, his name was meant to mean Dumb Ape, soooooo
People were seriously claiming that Downey kong is the return of the miyamoto design
What was their mental illness?
I will screech
He is definitely the one screeching, as opposed to the past month of threads like this
Soi Kong
Looks so neutered...
Donkey Kong? No, his name is Onions Kong
Mario got cucked.... Twice.
The new design looks better in every way.
Demeech
Don't advertise your channel here, faggot.
this you?
rewind doesn't help you in races and auto steer was an 8dx addition.
It's the stupid japanese styled eyes with the small pupils, they're too close together and their shape makes him look retarded
Is that a heckin' Bananerino?
He has no style, he has no grace
This Kong has a funny face
Eww why is that smile so ugly
kek
your brain is cooked, man, modern politics really did a number of you kids huh
The new design looks bet-ACK
