That kind of makes sense because why would the villain become the hero? It's kind of strange that their names are all Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong had a son and named him Donkey Kong Jr. When Donkey Kong Jr grew up, he had a son and named him, Donkey Kong. Let me guess if the current Donkey Kong has a son will he name him Donkey Kong?

    I don't feel like Wart was QUITE forgotten by Nintendo, even if he doesn't appear in games anymore. Nintendo had made a recruitment booklet forJapanese employees that featured brand new, completely unique hand-drawn artwork of various Mario characters working at Nintendo (such as Bowser Jr testing his Junior Clown Car on Spinies and Buzzy Beetles; a music session with Pauline singing, Luigi on a double bass, Spike on a bongo and Wiggler on Note Blocks; Peach and some Toads painting concept art; Thwomps smashing on Switch systems to test durability, overseen by a Boo; etc). One of these artworks is Daisy and Donkey Kong communicating via telephones at an office... and Daisy just so happens to be calling Wart, of all people! Wart is even surrounded by a bunch of Shy Guys! It's a neat little nod to a character that we haven't really seen all too often beyond remakes.

    That, and Diddy Kong has essentially replaced Donkey Kong Jr. for good once Microsoft acquired Rare. Beforehand, Nintendo wasn't allowed to have DKC characters appearing in any Mario game as Rare owned the rights to almost all DKC content and therefore wanted no cross contamination or crossovers with the Mario series, barring the Mario cameos in DKC2. Nintendo was allowed to have Donkey Kong in their games, but they had to get permission from Rare in order to use him. The last game to have that restriction was Mario Kart Double Dash!!, which is somewhat redundant in the end as the acquisition was completed during development. Until then, Donkey Kong Jr. has made a few appearances even after the release of Donkey Kong Country, with his latest appearance being Mario Tennis as an unlockable character.

    I'm happy Daisy avoided this fate. Azalea stole Daisy's intended face because her earlier designs looked like a simple recolor of Peach. That was what caused Daisy to obfuscate and suffer an identity crisis for one decade. I'm glad Nintendo realized that making Azalea was a big mistake because she stole everything what Daisy wanted in the latter's earlier appearances. It's not going to matter if Daisy is a reskin of Peach, Daisy was a tomboyish doppelganger of Peach anyway, so it's all good. These characters Nintendo wanted to erase happened for good reason. Diddy Kong was a much better looking character than Donkey Kong Jr. anyway. And also, Bowser Jr. was the real Koopa Kid even if he is a simple reskin of Baby Bowser.

    Just to share some stuff about K. Rool, the reason K. Rool exists in the form that he does is actually because him as well as the rest of the Kremlings were going to be villains in another Rare game that was being made, it was a space themed text adventure game inspired by Monkey Island, but their designs in that game were very radically different from what we got in DKC, so in order to make them fit the DKC setting better, they made the designs more cartoony and so from there is how we got the designs we see Rool and the Kremlings with today and that text adventure game ended up getting scrapped at some point, don’t remember if that was before or after this decision though. As far as we know, the biggest connection to anything related to Mario early in DKC’s development is that at one point it was going to be a game where DK and Mario teamed up with Wario being the main antagonist.

    Yamauchi caused the downfall of SMRPG; he really ruined Square's (SquareSoft at the time) relationship with them along with potential future SMRPG games. After Square merged with Enix, it made things more complicated and worse. If the SMRPG characters were owned or bought out by Nintendo, we probably would've gotten a lot of SMRPG games, Geno and Mallow being in Mario spin-offs or even as playable characters in Smash (with Geno probably being as early as Brawl since Sakurai wanted Geno as a playable character in Brawl). I think this is also the case with the M&L RPG characters like Cackletta, Prince Peasley, Midbus, etc., we only see them in those games because they were likely made and owned by AlphaDream, and Nintendo doesn't want to bother getting the rights to them.

    ND Cube is comprised of mostly former Hudson Soft employees so the original devs of Mario Party never really left per se. I'm not too sure it's a copyright issue in this case considering this isn't what happened with Mario RPG characters like Geno or Mallow, but more along the lines of what happened with the characters made for Donkey Kong. Nintendo fully owns the Kremlings and K. Rool and have used them in non-Rare games, they just decide not to use them very often for whatever reason. While Hudson Soft did originally develop the games and have since been acquired by Konami, Koopa Kid is probably in a very similar boat to the Kremlings, but unfortunately gets phased out due to functioning as a similar role to Jr. which sucks.

    I’d really love to see Wart and even Tatanga come back, since Mario games are so attached to using either Bowser or a one-time villain, heck the only time I can think of that wasn’t the case was with Fawful, and people fell in LOVE with him. I kinda get why Koopa Kid and the Koopa Kids were cut, since people already have trouble with Bowser Jr. vs Baby Bowser, and with those two and the Koopalings, throwing in another scenario like Toad and Yoshi where there’s “character that’s named after their species” on TOP of that would get way too confusing, but it’d still be nice to see him playable in some spin-offs or as generic NPCs/background characters every now and then. Same with Donkey Kong Jr., and don’t say him being DK’s dad makes the timeline not work, because you and I both know that half the Mario Kart roster is babies anyways.

    The doing away with Paper Mario's "good individuals of normally enemy species" is a tremendous loss imo. Not only did it make the cast of those games more interesting, but it reflects how irl, there's both kind people and assholes alike in every population. Nintendo taking this uniform stance on the enemy character designs after getting that before just feels wrong in more ways than one.

Seeing Diddy Kong now, it makes sense why Nintendo chose him over Diddy Kong Jr. Speaking about cynical, remember what happened to Daisy back in the 1990s? Daisy looked too similar to Peach in Mario Land that many people forgot she was a different character. Too similar to Peach, Daisy suffered an identity crisis for one decade and had no playable appearances prior to the new millennium with Mario Tennis on the Nintendo 64. As it turns out, Wario plotted Daisy's kidnapping so he can take the spotlight away from Daisy. Most people didn't care about Daisy back in the 90s because they thought that Daisy was Peach's tomboyish doppelganger in her earlier gaming appearances. This is because Daisy and Peach's earlier designs didn't look much different from each other. I'll admit it, Princess Daisy is more of Peach's tomboyish semi-clone rather then her doppelganger.

    For Wart, I'd love to see some sort of character development similar to Bowser. Over the years, Bowser has gone from -just- the king of the Koopa Kingdom. He's reached galactic overlord levels. He's become a major threat to more than just the Mushroom Kingdom. Maybe Wart has been in hiding to become some sort of dark wizard of the dreamscape (that still manages to choke on vegetables). Maybe he's been learning and practicing the dark magic to invade people's dreams and trap them in a never-ending nightmare. It could even have references to Antasma. For DKJR I always kept forgetting the tidbit of information relating that Cranky is the GRANDFATHER of Donkey Donk and not a father, believing that Konkey Dong is actually DKJR grown up. With that information, it's a little more believable to say that Donkey Bonkey is the son of DK JR.

    The modern DK is Donkey Kong Jr. and the original DK is Cranky Kong which why Rare made Diddy Kong to be his nephew and part of the DK family. King K. Rool was inspired by Wart in and Rare made an alligator type enemy instead of a frog.

    Great video. I wish Nintendo used their forgotten characters more like Geno and the ones you talked about one day in another game but that’s unlikely to happen. And I also kinda find it hard to be leave that we can’t get original Mario character again because there were a lot of new characters in Super Mario Odyssey, Luigis Mansion 3, and even Mario and Rabbids 1 and 2.

    Dope vid! Kinda surprised that you didn't bring up the canonical issues regarding DK Jr. though. Cranky Kong was already stated to be the original DK. That by proxy would make DK Jr. the more common DK's father as opposed to his son. So it wouldn't make sense for DK's dad to be tagging along in the form of a toddler. Rare would have to come up with a logical explanation on why.

    when DKC first came out, the vhs promo originally said that DK Jr was the DK we played as, only grown up. it wasnt confirmed by nintendo until 2017 that DK Jr was modern DK's father, making cranky the grandfather. which subsequently retconned playing as DK Jr in the original DKC games.

    I hope some forgotten characters come back in some form. Pauline managed to come back in a big way after recurring in the Mario VS Donkey Kong games and then blowing up in popularity with Odyssey. Foreman Spike will probably become more popular again after he appears in the movie. I really wish Nintendo would allow for a game with a more expanded cast. Maybe a new RPG series that's not afraid to draw from the deep well that is the franchise's cast of characters. Finally actually give characters like Waluigi something to do in a game's story, return past characters that have been forgotten, draw from different sub-franchises (main series, past RPGS like M&L, Paper Mario or even 7 Stars if they can work with Square, sports games, Mario Party, Doki Doki Panic/Super Mario Bros 2, Mario Land, Luigi's Mansion, Yoshi games, Donkey Kong games, Wario Land, WarioWare, Dr. Mario, etc.). But it seems they are mostly very protective and conservative with their IP for the most part nowadays...

    5:21 I think comparing a recurring character like Birdo and a character like Wart is an interesting one. I think the main difference between Wart and all of the other characters in Mario 2 is that Wart is one guy. Birdos, Shy Guys, Ninjis, etc, are all part of a species. Meanwhile, we only know of one Wart, and it happens that one Wart is in games about dreams. We know there are similar Bowser like characters like the Koopa Kids and Bowser Jr, but there's still only 1 Bowser, and he exists outside of the dreamscape.

    As a 15 year old Mario fan (also artist), I understand this demographic very well, the way you explained it to me. I think the old three Paper Mario games were WAY better than the modern ones we know now. It seems Nintendo is running out of ideas about making original PM characters, which is quite upsetting, and I think they should bring back the old PM partners as well (and the rest of the unique characters). Last year I got SPM for Christmas and it was a VERY good game, I loved it! I'm planning on getting Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, and Paper Mario. That's it from me, have a nice day! Also, one more thing, I'm sicken tired of these generic Toads they constantly put on Paper Mario! GAH!
