It's a modern online battle royale game on the Nintendo Switch based on the original F-Zero for the Super NES. 99 players race on the tracks simultaneously.

It can be downloaded for free if you have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription.

I personally don't like the game very much, but it's just fun enough for me to keep playing. Eventually, however, it will overstay its welcome, and then I'll leave.

[WesternTanager794]

Ok.

[Super Luigi!]

Thankfully, I won the Queen League earlier today, so now I don't need to worry about that, and I'll make sure to post a joke about it later. For now, here's another thought:

Dixie and Tiny are great sisters.

[WesternTanager794]

And Diddy and Timber are great brothers!

Just kidding.

[Super Luigi!]

I think they could be, especially since Timber was my brother's favorite character from Diddy Kong Racing DS. From what I remember, he is cool.

[Mattrizzle]

Diddy and Timber are also brothers in the sense that their father is Kevin Bayliss, since he created both of them.

[WesternTanager794]

I never thought about that!

[Super Luigi!]

That definitely makes him sound powerful, and I think he voices Tiny in DK64 too.

[WesternTanager794]

Random thought!
Grandparents are great.

[TimberTheTiger]

And Timber is very cool!

[Super Luigi!]

My brother liked him too, and I'm sure Diddy, Dixie, Tiny, and Timber would have many advetures together, such as with the friendly foxes.

[Sledgehammer44]

I'm glad I finally finished another week of school, especially since I have a 3 day weekend. Sometimes the work can be such a burden, especially in my government class, where I have to take an absurd amount of notes. I'm glad I'll have a couple days to rest at least.

[WesternTanager794]

Have a great weekend, Sledge!

[Flurryxvivo]

I wonder if we're ever gonna get new Kongs. We've had the same Kong family for decades now, so what's keeping Nintendo from adding new ones in the next DK game? Will we ever get to see Muddy Kong?

[Super Luigi!]

I doubt Nintendo cares very much for the Kongs, but we can hope. Many of them were in the Mario movie, after all, although that doesn't strike me as very accurate.

[Flurryxvivo]

I think Nintendo is at the very least aware of their existence, otherwise we wouldn't have seen Swanky in the Mario movie. Maybe they'll try to establish Chunky as part of the main "DK crew", since out of all the Kongs they could have chosen to sit in the audience with Diddy & Dixie they chose him, and he's gained a lot of popularity outside of the Donkey Kong community because of memes. I'd be pretty happy about that.

[WesternTanager794]

Interesting. All of it. Itll be interesting having you here, I thought I knew most DKC lore, but you have brought up some I don't.

[Super Luigi!]

Kiddy Kong may have been visible for two seconds in the movie when everyone was driving on Rainbow Road, so that's a start. Dixie's attitude towards Diddy didn't strike me as very accurate, however, and their outfits weren't right either. Regardless, I would like to see Chunky and many of the other Kongs again.

[WesternTanager794]

I'm going to be gone for a while from here. See you guys!

[Flurryxvivo]

They don't call me the biggest Donkey Kong fan for nothing! (no one has called me that before)

Ohh right I almost forgot about that! I remember being really hyped about it when the trailer released, but I'm not sure if he was visible in the actual movie. I saw the movie twice and I looked for him both times but I just didn't see him, and since Nintendo never said anything about his cameo I was left unsure if that was really him, but he definitely looks like Kiddy.

[Super Luigi!]

We will miss you, Tanager. Please take care.

I think Kiddy is on the left side of the screen when the crew is riding together before they run into Bowser's army.

Now here's another random thought: I feel like Winky would either fight Dixie or stare at her like he does with everything.

[WesternTanager794]

Thank you guys!

[Flurryxvivo]

Thank you guys!

See ya!

Now here's another random thought: I feel like Winky would either fight Dixie or stare at her like he does with everything.

I think it'd be really funny if Winky confuses Dixie for a fly and sticks his tongue out. Speaking of his tongue, if Winky ever returns it would be cool to have a tongue attack. Maybe this would be too similar to Yoshi though

[Super Luigi!]

Winky might just be Yoshi. Meanwhile, Rambi is Red Yoshi, Expresso is Blue Yoshi, and Enguarde is Yellow Yoshi. It doesn't quite make sense, but that's what I think. As for Squawks, he is the disco ball from Bowser's Castle. I also had cats that reminded me of the Animal Buddies, although besides Expresso, they've all left.

[Flurryxvivo]

although besides Expresso, they've all left.

Does that mean you have a blue Yoshi at home?

Phyreburnz created a sprite that did that by accident. I'll try to find it soon.

[WesternTanager794]

Of course he does!

[Cody]

Calling it now: Tropical Freeze WILL come out on Switch and it will have a playable Funky Kong!

I doubt it, but if it does happen, hopefully people will be happy.

Miiverse will always be great. Even now, I wish it was active. Nevertheless, it will always remain alive in our hearts.

I just randomly recalled the time I predicted DKCTF on Switch with playable Funky before it was even announced in the Direct and you know it wasn't edited because of Super Luigi's reply

[WesternTanager794]

I did see that at some point. Good job!

Had I known about the port craze, I would have agreed, although the idea of Retro Studios using more Kongs was certainly far-fetched, since they didn't seem to care much.

She doesn't fly, but like Expresso, she runs away and seems very afraid. It could just be how she sounds, however, and she's not afraid of me anymore.

Wouldn't it be cool if Nintendo announced a new DKC game in the next Direct? It will also feature tons of references to the original trilogy! Yeah, imagine that...

[WesternTanager794]

It's need to be with the typical "Rare flair"! That would be awesome. I wonder what the concept for dk games on the gamecube were. Probably improved a bit over DK64 from the criticism they received. We need to figure out what DKC4 was like, and Coconut Crackers, and release Donkey Kong Racing! Nintendo and Microsoft are on better terms now so maybe some collaboration?

[WesternTanager794]

I don't know if I ever shared this, but the red rambi I got on footage a while ago that no one ever explained. Any ideas?

Also if you go down to the bottom right as screen as far as you can without taking damage and go off screen, you lose a life and the game soft-locks.

Also, how is the Mario rom hack going RainbowSprinklez?

[Super Luigi!]

Here's another silly thought that I hope helps: The Banana Bird and Fairy queens could be mothers for the Kongs, and if they ever met, both women would likely recreate that Predator meme one way or another. I'll probably post what I mean on the server.

[WesternTanager794]

how exactly could they be mothers for the kongs?

[Super Luigi!]

The Kongs live off of bananas, and DK guards them tirelessly, so the Banana Queens are likely very important to them. Both ladies aren't exactly their mothers, but they are likely very important maternal figures. I wouldn't exactly call them goddesses, however, although they could be. Only one game with each doesn't give us much to go off of.

[WesternTanager794]

What about a story about them, though?

[Super Luigi!]

I could try to write something about them, although it would likely be short and involve much affection.

[WesternTanager794]

I don't care. If you would like to do it, I would enjoy it.

[Super Luigi!]

Alright. When the time is right, I'll do it, but not right now.

[WesternTanager794]

Ok.

[rainbowsprinklez]

Idk where to post this. Is this a good spot? I feel weird even posting it here xD

[Super Luigi!]

It's definitely a thought that few have likely chosen.

[Sledgehammer44]

I wonder where Tanager is. He said a while ago that he would be gone for a long time but didn't elaborate further than that. I anxiously await his return every day.

[Super Luigi!]

As do I, Sledge. I'm sure he's somewhere important, and he may even be at another chess tournament.

[Cody]

I'm glad this forum is still here. Obviously I don't post much anymore, but it sure is nice to have the site look and be as functional as it was in 2008

[Super Luigi!]

I also admire the Atlas to this day, even if I don't say much either.

[Chibisai Kong]

Sooooo.... I know this is likely something a lot of people here have seen, but I see no one's posted here since it was said, so I guess I'm gonna be the one to say it....

NEW DK GAME FRIENDS HOW WE FEELING

[Super Luigi!]

It may not be the Donkey Kong game I wanted, but it's certainly interesting.
