DK's identity is more intact than ever with the new redesign. He's now able to more easily express the emotions they tried forcing on his old design that just never worked before, if that makes sense. The new design can do cool, goofy, angry, gentle, etc, and do them well! He's our same old DK!

Love going through all my old reactions after recent Directs, and I don't think I'll ever be able to top this one. Almost didn't happen as I just moved into a new apartment and didn't know if any of my setup would work, but wow, worked out perfect, and my mind was blown by Donkey Kong Bananza!

I have played so much Bananza in the year it’s been out. I love this game so so much! It’s jumped up to my Top Ten Favorite games for sure, and it’s going anywhere!

It was 45 years ago today that the first Donkey Kong cabinets hit arcades! Happy four-and-a-half decades to Cranky Kong and the larger Donkey Kong series. May you continue your old man rants about how this was the best Donkey Kong game long after we've all joined your wife in the hereafter.

Never thought I'd actually ever be able to recreate this in a Donkey Kong game... but here they all are! Well, Void instead of Mario, haha

Pauline's wild side is breaking through! My latest moveset drawing is of Pauline from the Donkey Kong series! Wanted her action oriented so I heavily based her on Bananza, but wanted to keep her an adult to pair better side-by-side with the other iconic Nintendo ladies of Smash!

This is my happy place. Boot up the game, chill out in this world, just soak in the vibes. All of my special interests in one place, as perfect as they've ever been, it's become my favorite hub in gaming. The more statues added, the more in love with it I am.

Was recently gifted several items from Donkey Kong Country in Epic Universe and couldn't be more grateful! The jumbo chocolate bar is SO BANANA! The aroma immediately permeated the room when I opened it, and mmmm so delicious! Banana chips too! And hey, my favorite Kongs in the blind box! 🍌

If it couldn't have been more obvious what 2025 would be. There was no way anything could top Bananza for me this year! That big creative 3D DK from Nintendo that respects the entire franchise history, even co-starring Pauline?? My Banandium wish came true!
