I never thought we'd see Donkey Kong fans have their "Sonic's arms AREN'T BLUE" moment

Wokey Kong

Unfunny, forced... Yep its a discord raid.

top

DK looks he was caught offguard, but not particularly shook by it. The firm fist against the ground solidifies his resolve. He could get up again at any moment.

bottom

DK, fully feminized and kiddified, looks like he just stubbed his toe in the morning. He cannot handle the pain and wants to end it at all lest the ugly rock creature get any uncomfortably closer.

God Wokey Kong looks so awful

Top if a goofy retard expression.
Donkey Kong was literally always a goofy retard, the difference is that you're an adult now and can't let go of your childhood.

Ah yes, a wonderful Donkey Kong Bananza thread.

donkey kong fans have always been just as unhinged as chris chan. people forget the other half of sonichu is nintendo.

You'll survive

You mean I'll not buy

Look at the eyebrows. Rare DK is angry and pissed off. Wokey looks like like he's about to cry and pee pee in his toddler overalls

aren't you the nintendo sjw

That's fine

DK had better looking fur ten years ago.

You'll survive

I believe making DK look like a pussy-ass bitch is a bit different than a recolor.

I think that's you

Donkey Kong Bananza is going to break the internet.

That looks like shit dumb raresnoy

It’s one guy with a severe case of mental illness

posts a picture of a man reacting very appropriately to certain death in close approximation to a container of gunpowder, its sheer size containing such quantity whereas the resulting explosion has a very real chance of scattering his limbs across the jungle if not worse

Wokey Kong fags really are addicted to getting BTFO and it shows.

"DK isn't an ugly nigger" moment?

He looks like a fruitcake now

I am a donkey kong fan, but I mean that in a hotsauce merchant kind of way, I always hated the rare games and when people lost their minds over the far superior country returns games I realized that the only real donkey kong fans are me, the hotsauce merchant, and his rival, everyone else is just a nostalgic rarewarebabby.

it looks infinitely better than
-smash ultimate
-MKW
-Bananza

they forgot how to do fur effects. they can't even texture it right.

neotendo fans inventing strawmen to cope with fisher price fur in 2025

This is pathetic

You'll survive

Wokey Kong will flop, yet another nintendo ip shelved

You'll survive

You won't survive

I liked old DK and I like new DK. He looks like a goofy monkey now, which I like, although I think the new design looks better in Bananza than in MK9. Something about the latter's model looks off for some reason.
The only redesign I don't like is Diddy's where they gave him this nasty flesh strip between his Sonic eyes. It's barely noticeable but still off putting.

It's just painfully fucking garbage. Literally no one asked for a calarts kong with bird feathers for fur

You won't survive

You'll survive

You won't survive

retard that's DK breaking model to emphasis something.

nuDK is doing this shit every frame. because the devs are retards and don't understand subtly or balance.

You’ll survive

Posted it again I see, Robert. You really need to let this one go. You don't want to end up like Erica

Forced outrage

You won't survive

Cucky Kong

Why are you guys focusing on DK's face, and not the imminent reveal of new Mario and Pauline lore?

You'll survive

Right has been trapped and betrayed in the hyperbolic time chamber

You'll survive

The new one looks like it was designed by a furfag that wants to fuck him, that is my main complaint

The old one looks like a proper cartoon animal that's just thinking about animal stuff most of the time instead of acting goofy for the camera

Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
oh no, not I, I will survive.

Where did this anti-Rare DK sentiment come from? I knew Nintendo fanboys from the 2000's were harping on Rare for going to Microsoft, but all the arguments against Rare's DK as of late came out of nowhere.

I will survive.

Where did this anti-Rare DK sentiment come from?

Nintendo changed X to Y, therefor X must have been bad

This kong lookin' ZESTY, this kong lookin' MOIST, he's got sugar in his tank, he's light on his feet, he's a lil bit fruity, he plays for the other team, he does slap attacks at the other end of the ballroom, this kong theatrical, this kong good with animal friends, this kong gonna coordinate yo bananas with your barrels and that shit gonna look good! This kong lifts ties, this kong on the down low, this kong be an outhouse trader, this kong dashes uphill, this kong packs banana fudge, he's a friend of Dorothy, he feels the love that dare not speak its name, he loves to sing, he's of the Uranian brotherhood, he indulges in the Kremling vice, he has an antipathic sexual Instinct, he's fluent in Polari, he's a refugee from Sodom, he's on the wrong mine cart, he bats for the other team, he's temperamental, he's 'one of them' if you catch my drift.

look at these new colors, the game look like utter shit
it's not even for nintenbabies anymore, you guys are nintendownies

lmao now retards are mad because diddy got 2 eyes instead of that weird one eye with 2 pupils like sonic
why are autistic people like this? serious question

this anti-Rare DK sentiment

Link to these posts.

rarekong wasnt designed by furfags

anon, try to remember

his face looks retarded as fuck. his arms look like a mammoth not a gorilla. stop baiting for no reason. also sonic's arms were never blue in any of his designs.
it's just one retard trying to force a meme.

Why is DK so different, when every other character is relatively unchanged (give Diddy his Nintendo on his hat back!).
Is it just because of the movie?
I still hate that this new design besides being ugly reminds me of fucking Seth Rogan.

I'm not anti rare I'm anti "anything Nintendo ever does proves they hate Rare"

I can't say for sure because I wasn't there but I feel like furfaggotry in the 90s meant shit like Lola Bunny and Berri from Conker, not diaper bara vore daddies or whatever the fuck kind of degeneracy we have today that the new DK feels born out of

I just don't get a fetish vibe from OG Kong, and the only fetish I get from Krystal, Lola, Berri etc is an adult woman fetish

-Nintendo changed it to the illumination design
-Consoomers need to defend the latest slop, so new thing amazing, old thing bad now
-until the next thing is released than new thing actually dog shit, NEW NEW thing good now.

Rare was never good. I for one am glad they're redesigning the Kongs. Ideally we'd get rid of the OCs that Rare made, but Rarefags will go absolutely nuclear otherwise.

Rare was never good
captcha somehow related i guess

samefagging this hard

you will never make people hate rare you will always be a pathetic spammer

For the people who think New DK "looks the same" do you literally not have eyes

He looks different and I think he looks fine.

Why is the thread slowing to a crawl?

not in mario tennis aces

not in mario golf rush

not in super mario party

not in jamboree

not in mario and sonic tokyo olympic games

not in dr. mario world

not in mario strikers battle league

not in mario kart tour

not in mk8dx booster course pass

not in any of the theme parks

no sign of being in mario kart world or bananza

What does Nintendo have against K. Rool? Smash brought him back after high fan-demand but now they're pretending he doesn't exist again.

Forced thread.

And I never thought we'd see an ugly retard looking DK, but here we are

Don't care, game looks fun

It was only fast because of the >you will survive retard

He will be in Donkey Kong Bananza.

You'll survive.

Yes, I will. I don't see what that has to do with my statement though?

I've always hated donkey kong, and i hate this new design the most

Look at his mario golf model. They don't try or care about him.

it's one schizo calling all pre-switch fans snoys
he also calls people melee/gamecube/OoT snoys

they're going pretty hard on the crocodile imagery in bananza, I think it's foolish to count him out already

I'm more concerned with the gameplay. It just kinda looks boring.

You might survive

You might survive

Sometimes, you just have to power through it to get the reward.

Difference is Sonic's blue arms were a downgrade, nukong is an improvement

Right above you.

HURR THEIR TROLLING

Anyone pretending to be retarded, etc.

You won't survive

And now you'll be called a rare snoy by him because you are just a troll.

I like this new DK design, it's far more fuckable than the bog-standard just-a-tie look. It's far more "wreck it ralph", which helps with cultivating his character and personality.

I didn't get the complaints about Odyssey that the collectibles are meaningless and unrewarding because of how they were strewn about seemingly without any intent. I suddenly get that here where you just punch down a wall bro instead of play through any actual level design.

I don't get it. Why does that pedo Brazilian that spams Famitsu threads call people snoys.

You were talking about a post that didn't happen until after yours? That's silly. Why are you lying to me?

Because you're just a troll.

classic deek is more "iconic", but nu-deek has more personality and expressiveness, which is something you need if you're going to have a real story and plot and if you want the players to be invested in him as a character rather than just as a gameplay tool. Literally my only real complaint about DK64 is that the kongs have no dialog and no ability to emote, unlike the very rudimentary forms of that in BK and BT, where at least Banjo and Kazooie could talk, which might not have been much but at least it gave a sense of who they were. I think this is a good move, but there's definitely going to be a million alternate costumes, just like in Odyssey.

Donkey Kong is meant to kind of mean "Stupid Ape."
DK looking like an utter retard is pretty fitting

K.Rool is stated to be small time to Void Corporation

How would the fans react

K. Rool is obviously small-time, he's only the king of the Kremlings, and he's never been seen or heard from in anybody else's games that are set in the same "universe". He's not being invited to Bowser's parties, and he's definitely sore about it.

"K. ROOL AAAAGH IT'S K. ROOL AHAHAAA YES YES YES WOOOOOOO K. ROOL YEAAAAA IT'S K. ROOL"

Unless it's Pauline but she looks that way because being Odd Rock somehow de-aged her.
OR she looks small because DK is 8 feet tall ffs

I'll be honest, he was cute in SSBU, but in a vacuum I just do not give a single shit about King K Rool and I don't care if they never bring him up again

They didn't even try to commit to his eyes being separate. You can see them curving in like his old eyes and it looks extremely off putting and you're retarded if you think that looks good

Mareach will be retired.
Accept it.

It would have been so, so easy to just make a hair's breadth distance between his eyes so it looks like one eye from afar, but in profile images it looks like two seperate eyes, that's a simple, obvious solution and I don't know why they don't do that.

Bro someone pointed out his fur now looks like a Viva Pinata character and I can't unsee this DK being a dumb pinata.

Actually I like that diddy's design but I think nu donkey it's a downgrade.

Sure hope Rare fans are ready for this design to stick around for the next god knows how many years lol.

I will get the first Nu-DK plushie that releases.

It's not just the flesh strip, but the fact that his eyes aren't fully rounded like how eyes usually are. They just stop right before both eyes connect and go straight down. I would've preferred if they made it obvious that his eyes were separate instead of this weird pseudo mono eye

... you will cum on it, won't you?

You'll survive

You'll thrive

No.
Absolutely not.
That would be disrespecting Donkey Kong, Mario, Pauline, their daughter, and Nintendo.

I will hug it, pet it, squeeze it, and sleep with it.
I will have it sit with me and watch me play the next 3D Mario.

I used to play the first DKC with my dad and then he died the next year, I was very young. Donkey Kong will always be important to me.

Rare fans

The last 23 years have done more to them than any attempt to redesign DK ever will.

don't worry, I'll break into your house at night and cum on it for you, bros have to have each others' backs.

I am very sorry for your loss of your dad.

anti-Rare DK sentiment

the fuck are you talking about

you say that like it's a thing but I don't think it's a thing

Look at this woke shit.

My take on new DK is that the Mario team and Nintendo by extension saw the Mario movie, saw how the facial expressions worked with those models and they decided to give their take on it, and DK was the test subject for it, sadly.

That Krystal is Nintendo's Krystal. This was Rare's Krystal.

I cannot wait for the June Direct.

Hugs sent

His hair curl is completely separate from the rest of his fur.

I dislike how Bananza specifically does it, a lot of DK's design language, which was kept in mind on his first redesign, is lost here. In MKWorld and specially the movie it looks just fine. Even is a good example, just separate his eyes and give him retractable teeth

Old Donkey Kong looks like Texas Avery shit, while Nu Kong looks like CalArts shit.

I like the new DK but Diddy and Cranky look so out of place next to him, even with the tweaks

Objective: SURVIVE

So how does this work, because Cranky is in the game and canonically Cranky is the one who kidnapped Pauline in the past.

Pretty sure Miyamoto demanded to make Krystal more fuckable.

Stupid humiliation ritual with a side of foot fetishism.

None of us will survive

Rare still made the 2nd design at nintendo's request

The Sonic Boom design was never meant to replace his previous design.

Unless I'm mistaken, it was Takaya Imamura who did the redesigns, they were just going to cut her completely.

i don't understand where the artist of that gets those vibes from, is it literally just that they made DK more expressive? How is any of this "woke"? Is it just woke because he doesn't like it?

I don't know, but I am certain that Nintendo will unveil Mario and Pauline's daughter.

nintendo's supervisor to rare is what i can find for his credit

Admit you're autistic and don't understand expressions

Only the strong survive

nuDK is what a man looks like after getting the covid vaccine + boosters, drinking fluoride water and eating nothing but s o.y for several years

You first

You'll survive

That’s not equivalent to what’s happening, but okay retard (I’m a Sonic fan)

Proof?

not needed

Autistic DK fans are making threads non-stop sperging out. The new designs look good, and DKC 2 is my favorite game/

I'm not an expert but I suspect you may have some kind of mental illness

survive [1 of 25] matches *now including 26

keep it up, survivors.

why are you bothered by people not liking the design

I'm not the schizo retard

Yeah but Hiro gets more engagement if I bait you.

I just like saying that phrase

It's like LE SONIC ARMS

Why don't you faggots just admit that you have no counterarguments to his shitty design instead of using fallacies?

his design is fine actually
Also:

tranime

I actually like the new Donkey Kong.
The pants make him look more professional.

When Miyamoto-San announces that Mario and Pauline have a daughter, we must all as a board, show our support, and be there for Mario.
That means we must save Mario and Pauline's daughter from King K. Rool and his VoidCo monkeys.

He looked so good before fr fr

If that were the situation and you weren't a disingenous faggot, DK's tie would just be lacking his initials or something. The retro era design is more akin to what you're describing, and that was fine. This is more like Donkey Kong Boom.

generally I think the new design is fine, just wish the eyes were a bit more spaced out, and that Nintendo wasn't so obviously scrubbing all of Rare DK from stuff like player icons and such. no reason why old and new DK can't exist in regards to shit like profile icons and such

That means we must save Mario and Pauline's daughter from King K. Rool and his VoidCo monkeys.

Who's saying it's not the other way around?

only times I really was a bit sad he and his faction of baddies never came back was both returns and tropical freeze. TF at least is better than the tiki fuckers but you really can't beat THIS youtube.com/watch?v=KWQ34SGBtVU

found an interview he says he showed them ketches later he says he designed it but also calls her his favourite rare design maybe something was lost ins translation

Rare's DK is just british.

people loved the Country + Returns games, there's plenty of people who main DK in Smash/Kart, and Anon Babble spammed DK64 memes for like a decade

That wouldn't make any sense.
This collage I made outlines the story.

If you don't like redesign... le autism! It doesnt matter!

Le more expressive is more gooder

Everyone who engages with the subject of character design this way should be beaten with a yardstick and have their hands and feet pinned to a cross with pens and pencils.

I wish there was a term for people like this, it's like some bizarre reverse autism where they have to defend less appealing designs because "lol people don't like it so I have to."

I bet there's some old build of Bonanza where the DK design looks way more like the Rare/Retro games but then some retard came in (maybe Miyamoto) and was like

NOOOO! HE HAS TO BE DIFFERENT! CHANGE IT NOW!!!

Tex Avery shit

Oxymoron.

What Miyamoto says, goes.

You'll survive

I'm convinced this is lil Pualine through some time travel shenanigans to put a twist on the long standing bad relationship between her and DK. If they can make it work for Mario and Luigi partners in time, anything is fair game.

How is it time travel?
Who keeps peddling that nonsense theory?

People know.
They know that Mareach is coming to an end.
And they are scared.

you don't understand a few retards were annoying about sonic 4 having green eyes a decade and a half ago so now you can't ever criticise any redesign

he looks more vulnerable

Slutty Ape Feet

someone spent the time to draw this

Yeah I know I will, I don't know why you seem to think that will irritate me. So will you. It isn't a matter of life and death, but that's moving the goalposts in a conversation of preference.
Very unfortunately true. It's sad how much of a bad influence the worse elements of the Sonic fandom has been overall for the gaming discourse.

It couldn't have taken them very long though.
They must not respect Nintendo as much as the next guy.

My theory is that this game is the "missing link" between Country/Returns and the original Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong saves a young Pauline, and then years later because of a misunderstanding he "kidnaps" her and Mario beats him up.
(in this scenario the bit about Cranky being the original Donkey Kong is a non-canon joke)
The timeline would be Country/Returns -> Bananza -> Donkey Kong (original/etc) -> Super Mario Bros series -> Mario vs Donkey Kong

They did it before, they can come up with some wacky reason for it to happen again. Hell, timelines mean jack fuck all to nintendo. Look at how quickly Zelda fell apart. Especially Botw with the Age of Calamity atlernate timeline. Hell, there's another example of time travel non-sense, that one and tears of the kingdom. They're on a time travel kick. I'd sooner believe time travel than them announcing romances with romantic relations beyond a kiss. Vanilla Nintendo would never admit mario got laid.

NuDonkey Kong is shit

It irritates you. You can't handle people dismissing your opinions. See

710274665

it irritates you

you can't handle

Lol. Lmao. As if, I know what your goal is, any emotional investment I could have in what your faggy ass has to say was automatically shut off the moment I wrote the first post. Sorry friend, no soup for you today. Now please, enough with the projection, this is getting embarrassing. (For you.)

also yeah this would make Donkey Kong really old by gorilla standards but I don't think Nintendo cares about that
the fact that both characters from Country (Cranky etc) AND a girl that looks like Pauline are both in the game is very suspicious, Nintendo are not nuanced storytellers

They don't have to say he got laid, people can figure that out for themselves.
I just need some progress in my Mario stories.
I was awaiting something spectacular from Odyssey, that I didn't get.

I try not to think to much into "what game in order does this occur out of the dozens of others?" Unless it's an obvious sequel like Majoras mask or Tears of the Kingdom. Cause then you start to factor in DK 64 and wii donkey kong, it's all a big mess. It's a DK game and I think that's lil paulina through time travel nonsense. Plus it's fucking cute. He kidnapped her as an adult, but now he's a big baby sitter. De-villification I guess you'd call it.

Anon what I posted was super simple and misses out on a lot of the games.
If anything it's a very vibes-based timeline that requires you to ignore a lot of small details. It's just Nintendo rectifying Rare/Retro Donkey Kong with classic arcade Donkey Kong. A pseudo-fanservice story that ignores a lot of existing lore is EXACTLY the kind of storytelling Nintendo loves.

i hate chuds so god damn much

tfw recognized artist from calligraphy

I should just blow the top off, since the image keeps getting spammed.

Face it lad. Mario has been saving the princess since the 80s and we'll all be long dead before that relationship advances beyond a kiss on the nose or cheek. Man though, it's really been almost 8 years since the last open world Super Mario title. I fucking miss traditional collect-a-thons like Galaxy, 64, and sunshine. The breadth over depth approach was lame.

wokey kong

now that's the epitome of forced hate

I can't take you contrarians seriously because not once did you retards complain about pretendo's kong until now.

Classic Kong was massacred in the fucking 90s.

RARE'S DONKEYKONG NEVER SHOW ITS TEETH

Mario will move on from Peach.

I am convinced that everyone calling it wokey kong are either shartyfags or false flaggers trying to make DK fans come off more autistic than the are. Who the fuck would call it that. Retarded label and not even remotely accurate to what woke means. (commie oppression retardation)

He's not locking down pauline either. He's a savior of many, husband of none.

Fair, whichever way explains it, time travel, timeline finaggling. That's lil pauline to me.

ZESTY kong

"Sonic's arms AREN'T BLUE"

This is so much worse than that, they fuckin butchered him. Doesn't even seem like the same character.

Then why does Odd Rock look like Pauline?
Why has Nintendo been hyping up Pauline?
Why did Nintendo show Peach acting how she did in Odyssey's end cutscene?

You will be deceased

Sure.

My rationalization is that Banananza DK is Rare DK's son.

I never really care about redesigns but this one is real fucking shitty. Like I actually hate it. I won't buy the game ever.

I won't buy it because it is a 3d platformer, an inherently inferior genre.

Where did this anti-Rare DK sentiment come from?

Nu-Nintendo did a thing so now old Nintendo is shit and must be trashed so nu-Nintendo can continue to do the thing without being criticized. Exact same shit happened with Zelda or any time Nintendo butchers or takes something out back to shoot in the head and skin.

I don't mind Diddy, but DK is total fucking trash.

You should buy it.
Nintendo will convince you that you should save Mario and Pauline's daughter.

Let's be real there won't be fucking anything we remember fondly aside from like Rambi maybe and one or two other nods to DKC. K Rool won't be in the game, they're going to wholly gloss over him or set up that little retard as his new rival and use him forever and ever for no reason. The entire point of the game will to take the DK we've known since 1994 out back behind the shed. They took away the world he existed in, now theyre getting rid of him, and the re-jappification will be complete. THEN they'll shit games out the wazoo with him.

hmm
what happened to moe at the end of this episode?

Donkey Kong fans

The people complaining about this definitely aren't DK fans

Because that is pauline, through time travel nonsense, not her daughter. That's my opinion and I stand by it. I completely agree that it's pauline one way or another, but I think it actually is her and not her spawn.

this thread is funny as fuck. I just want both sides to have fun.

kys falseflagger

He made the 3DS.

OH MY SCIENCE

He dumped her? Chad.

Mario realizes he's never locking it down with Peach so he goes back to his old flame.

ngl nukong lookin kinda zesty.... id slide it in no homo

i think it looks nice and i am going to play it :)

based and hererosexual

I wouldn't be so pissed over this design if Nintendo didn't shove it down my throat by replacing my fucking profile icon.

Also I really hate how massive his teeth are

They just screencap the post they made and then post it on r/gamingcirclejerk. They're owning no one.

I already replayed DK94, DK Jr, DKC 1 and 2, and watched some videos about 64, all because I want to play Bananza already. Cant wait

are we seriously gonna have to destroy everything in this game? i like the level design a bit, so it sucks that we would have to destroy it all for 100%
does it regenerate after leaving the area? or stay destroyed forever?

i dont see how you can deny that this is the work of dei, they took a masculine role model and made him into a "haha munkee :DD" joke. its no secret that nintendos been going down the weak man strong woman bog standard family friendly wokeness route, you need look no further than the mario movie.

you can reset it yourself.

Anon, that's been his characterization since returns. This is what nintendo itself wants him to be. This is what Miyamoto sees when he thinks of DK. I don't want it, you don't want it, but it isn't DEI. Although if they picked it solely because of the mario movie, THEN you can say it's DEI because illumination is obviously infested with that kind of thing.

DK was a bitch in the og DKC games but no one mentions it.

they will reverse this.

Nobody says this.

really? is there confirmation? does resetting keep all the unlocked collectibles?

implying

Young (i.e. not baby )mario would make all these knuckleheads shit their pants

Why does he wear Mario-style overalls

Mining Island, it's the tutorial island and DK is working there for some reason. He loses his clothes later.

I don't know why you seem to think that will irritate me

Because you're so angry you're calling for people to be beaten with a yardstick you moron lmao. You'll survive bitch tits
