Why wasn't David Wise hired to do the music?
Why did they only have Rambi as an animal buddy?
Why did K Rool take so long to return?
This review discussion between Reece (Kiwi Talks) and former Retro Studios devs is enlightening. Must watch/listen for DK fans.

They needed to do this before they announced Rayman coming back
Ubisoft just postponed its earnings report and halted the trading of its shares. Unclear why at this point but could indicate a major announcement related to the company.

All the gratuitous violence in Bananza had me thinking... Wouldn't be MONDO COOL if I combined a 90's Capcom style fighting game with Donkey Kong?! Let's call it "Donkey Kong: Jungle Rumble"! A girl can dream...

This is an incredible video. I’m not super familiar with the greater Rare output, and this video introduced me to all the fun ways they tied their games together.
Everyone is discussing Donkey Kong and the notion of “Donkey Kong lore” lately. Don’t be afraid. You’ve taken your first step into a larger world. Yes, Donkey Kong has a wonderfully rich mythology. Allow us to guide you.
First, Diddy Kong Racing and how DK is (still) part of Rare’s shared universe!
