How do they want Donkey Kong? With or without suspenders?

Remember that controversy about Donkey Kong wearing pants in "Donkey Kong Bananza"? The funny thing is, it all started with an interview with Seth Rogen (the voice of the gorilla in the Super Mario movie) where he jokingly stated that Donkey Kong would be funnier in pants, and that's how Nintendo created the gorilla with pants.

But in the end it was all an exaggeration of the design, and in fact, you can take the character's pants off, so it's not entirely permanent.

•To be honest, I think I like Donkey Kong in pants aesthetically and in terms of design; he reminds me of a classic character from the 1940s, in addition to the facial redesign they gave him for this game.

And (and some of you might notice this) the relationship that Donkey Kong has with child Pauline reminds me a lot of Wreck-It Ralph with Panelope

That's not to mention that Donkey Kong's outfit and destructive abilities make him look even more like him.

Fragmentone in the Ingot Isle layer

Do any of you geniuses have any tips for getting the fragmentones back together? I always have so much trouble with it.
I’ve gotten a lot of great advice that has really improved my game play here and hope maybe you can help with this too 😁
Thanks!

Photo Bananza

I’m having so much fun with making these photos with the statues I’ve gathered so far. 😁✨

In DKC2, what happens to Screech if it loses?

I believe Screech has not death animation, so what happens to it if it’s defeated on-screen?

Does it flashes out? Vaporizes? Stops? Bypasses the end of the stage?

Made some artwork of the Bananza forms!

It was my first true attempt using these materials but I think it turned out pretty nice!

Golden kannon in black ice battle?

I've seen this glitch happen in hot head hop with the boombox/guitar but never with a kannon

Not only have Bananza events returned for a full month each, we can now change our console clocks to access particular ones

I noticed people in Australia/New Zealand and Japan could access the rerun event before others, and now it's got a 00:00-23:59 timer rather than a specific time zone for each country (where I am, events would end at 17:30 previously). So I ran a little test just now and changed my console clock a couple of times... boom, other events. If you've missed a particular statue of a Bananza transformation, or Funky, or the Jungle Beat guys, you can get them right now! Just pick the relevant month for the characters.

I did start up the Resort Layer event because I was curious if DK and Pauline would get their Mario/Luigi clothes like what happened during that run, but they were just in their regular clothes. The Mario anniversary stuff seems to be the only stuff we're truly locked out of at any given moment.
