Nintendo Korea’s official website has corrected its slip, but has just uncovered a possible shared universe line.
As if replacing a 3D Mario with a 3D Donkey Kong as the Nintendo Switch 2 launch game wasn’t already enough of a media earthquake, now it’s time for crazy theories. only this time, with a very real basis.
Nintendo Korea’s official website shared an official art image of Donkey Kong Bananza (which you can read our first impressions of after testing it in Paris this week here) showing the gorilla protagonist with a dark-haired, familiar-faced girl hanging around his neck and looking funny. It doesn’t take a genius to deduce that this is the mayor of New Donk City herself, Pauline. Interestingly, here we see a much younger Pauline, which could mean that (and here the crazy and bizarre theories begin).
