I only now discovered where Rare got the line "He has no style, he has no grace." It's from a song that's literally called "Master Race Rock." Skip to 0:56 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHRy6_nFyPs&ab_channel=TheDictators-Topic The song is obviously ironic, but it's still funny to think that line in a children's game came from a song with that title.

>>1595040 Ocarina of Time is incredibly explicit with its time travel. The game has a very explicit story in general. You don't go to The Dark World because The Dark World doesn't even exist in that time. It's a key plot point in both Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time that The Dark World is created when Ganon goes to the Golden Realm, which doesn't happen until the very end of Ocarina of Time. The game is so full of time travel that not only do characters age and die and remember things that you did in the past, but you can even plant beans and then go to the future to see how they sprout. Breath of the Wild takes place in the distant future, but isn't that futuristic. Spirit Tracks is the most futuristic, since it has steam power. It's practically industrial. But Breath of the Wild is over ten thousand years after that. Society has restarted, maybe multiple times.

>>1594990 MARK, I LOVE YOU!!!

>>1592067 >A previous Zelda is mentioned as early as Zelda II. The Zelda in Zelda II isn't the same one from Zelda I, but a previous version that was sleeping for generations. It's all there in the manual, and in the NES era, you were expected to read the manual for the story. Very few people bring up how weird this is. This means by the end of the game there's two Zeldas alive and active at the same time and in the same incarnation of Hyrule.

>>1595209 >Master Race Rock Fitting for the side game.

>>1595850 The weird part is that they say she's the original Princess Zelda, which doesn't work perfectly with the lore. Later official materials (but not the games themselves) say she was just an earlier Zelda but not the first. Later Zeldas were named after her, but there were also previous Zeldas, and apparently that was just fate. Zelda isn't even a princess in Skyward Sword, since Hyrule doesn't exist yet. But to be fair, this is pretty much the biggest contradiction in the series' lore. Unless you say that Zelda II Zelda IS Skyward Sword Zelda.

>>1595368 The ancient civilization from Skyward Sword was super futuristic and advanced. Probably the most of anything in the whole franchise.

Why did this turn into a Zelda thread all of a sudden? Donkey Kong? Bananaza? Anyone play it? What are your thoughts on the game?

>>1601693 It's okay. Just feels like another 5/10 Nintendo game, IMO. People overhype it, but I guess there's nothing wrong with it. Real problems lie in the lack of challenge, the bananas feeling too much like koroks and Odyssey moons, Pauline is a constant annoyance, and the "destroy the terrain" gimmick feels a little shallow. Like they just slapped it onto the game without really incorporating it. Same issue that TOTK had with the vehicles feeling like they were slapped on, thus completely ruining the idea of traversal.

>>1601817 Haven't played it yet but that's in line with my impressions of it going by the gameplay I've seen. It looks very gimmicky. Also very ugly. Guess there's no point trying to make a location that looks good if you expect players to tear giant holes in the terrain first chance they get.

>>1603765 It's actually really good. 9e3d3e is just being a faggot

>>1604551 If you like it, more power to you. but I hate games that ask you to "make your own fun", and I despise Pauline as a character down to her concept. Sidekicks are just maximum cringe, especially if they love to talk.

>>1604551 Could you at least explain what you like about it?

>>1604575 It's a Donkey Kong 3D Platformer done right. There's a good balance of movement and punching shit, on top of being able to actively shape the terrain of each level, additionally it's not super easy either. Basically it feels like a mix of Odyssey and Hulks Ultimate Destruction with a bit of Memecraft thrown in.

>>1604661 Sounds good to hear that you enjoy it, even if I ultimately disagree.

>>1604661 You're not really selling me on it if "not super easy" is one of your points of praise. Sounds like a 7/10 game; something good, maybe great in a few areas, that falls short of the complete package.

>>1601527 Mark Mann, this is fundamentally NOT a spoiler. It was revealed publicly to millions in a Nintendo Direct. You might as well say that Pauline being in the game is a spoiler.

I got all bananas. It took me 45 hours. It was fun, but not very challenging outside a few end and post game challenges.

>>1605322 Would you describe it as monkey business?

>>1605489 No, it's ape business!

>>1604715 Yeah, to each their own. I personally had a ton of fun with it. >>1604833 It's absolutely a must buy for a Switch 2 since the only real games for the platform right now are DK and Mario Kart World which they gimped due to people having too much fun in the online with randos.

>>1606319 > It's absolutely a must buy for a Switch 2 That’s a weird way of saying “It’s absolutely a must pirate for a Switch 2 emulator”.

>>1618421 There's a Switch 2 emulator already? I can't find anything about it. What's it called?

>>1618626 Its called "Diddy and Dixie appear in Rambie's Racing in Donkey Kong Bananza, which is not a spoiler because Nintendo put it in the ads".

>>1585440 Can we do double vaginal while we French kiss?

Why is he called Donkey Kong if he's a monkey?

>>1907686 HE

>>1907967 HAS

>>1908153 노동 >>1907726 "Donkey" in the sense of foolish or unreasonable or jackass. "Kong" because of King Kong or if you believe Nintendo's lawyers Sun Wukong.

>>1907686 wonder if tiny will be included, & if so, what form
