1:11 That invention, called "adaptive music", was perhaps best utilized by Rare themselves. For example, in their hit N64 platformers (Banjo-Kazooie, Donkey Kong 64, Banjo-Tooie and Conker's Bad Fur Day), where there's a certain "main hub" music piece that is used throughout the game, but with varying instruments depending on where player is at the moment. That way the basically same music track never gets old no matter how much you hear it during your adventure. And all of these games (except Conker) also used this technique for boss themes as well, turning them into more intense versions of their worlds' theme, albeit using nearly identical instruments (kinda like the opposite effect😅). Too bad this "adaptive music" isn't used nearly as much nowadays, it just adds so much more personality to these games in a way not many other studios have been able to replicate!😉🎧🎶

This is used heavily but subtly in Zelda and Pikmin games. But Rare did it with tons of personality.

The idea of Timber being a time traveler in his planned solo game actually puts a lot of DKR's worlds into perspective. This video mentioned Dino Domain, but most of the worlds could represent different time periods. Sherbert Island has a pirate theme, Dragon Forest is a medieval fantasy kingdom, and Future Funland's obviously got the space age theme. Snowflake Mountain is the odd one out as a Christmasy winter wonderland, but it could easily be reskinned as an ice age themed world with a little tweaking, which would even fit with the original plans to make Taj a mammoth.

If Bumper is still alive and on parole, I want to race with him one last time. I miss him dearly and hope he get's his life back together

I wish they were still making games :(

I remember when I was pretty young, I was aware of the fact that Banjo and Conker got their own games, so I suspected that most of the characters in DKR got their own games later on. Then one day, I saw what was probably a Gex game and went "Woah, Crunch got his own game!?" I think it was pretty close to a copy of Conker's Bad Fur Day, so the idea of the cast getting their own games was already fresh in my mind when I saw a green lizard protagonist for N64 and immediately made that connection. I did not end up getting any game that day, but it was definitely a thought that occurred.

Krunch actually did make a second appearance (though renamed simply as "Kritter") in Diddy Kong Pilot, even if that game was also cancelled/redone as Banjo-Pilot. What was slated to be Timber's game, Dinosaur Planet, was shortly after retooled to instead star original characters Krystal and Sabre, before Nintendo stepped in and retooled _that_ game to be about Star Fox, being renamed Star Fox Adventures. As a bit of trivia, the engine for Dinosaur Planet was actually built off DKR's engine, and a couple of leftover models can still be found in the N64 build that surfaced back in 2021.

Maybe not all getting their own games, but I would be so down for them to appear in different games. Krunch in DK and Bumper in Conker (due to his felonious past). Timber getting his own game with Drumstick (who was already on the island). That just leaves Pipsy and T.T. I could see Pipsy in Conker due to her innocent design and seemingly polite personality. An innocent mouse in a rude world would fit perfectly. As for T.T., I don't know what he would be in. He would probably just be lost to DKR other than neat easter eggs. I suppose he could accomplish the same role as he does in DKR if Timber's hypothetical game in this scenario turned out to be a racing, like Pro AM 64 was. Other than that though, I'm out of ideas. Unfortunately, this probably will never happen, but I'd pop off to be proven wrong.

Probably something to mention, when Rare was brought by Microsoft; aside from the Kongs, Nintendo also kept Krunch. He's probably the only one who has a sliver of a chance in making a return appearance in a future DK game

Would’ve been cool to have TT in Nuts and Bolts instead. Could’ve had him as old and retired from racing. His first trial being super easy. He decides “I could make it harder”, as you progress in finishing them, you see he starts getting back to his former self, eventually he’s back in peak condition, his last trial being the hardest one and he thanks Banjo for bringing him back to their good ole racing days.

6:08 Actually, the story I remember hearing was a little different; presumably, the game was changed after Nintendo saw the protagonist, who was made into a fox (not a tiger), and they thought "Hey, that looks a lot like a fox character we have already created, so, let's just turn it into a new type of Star Fox game!"🤔🐯🦊🦕

The Entire DKR cast, excluding the Kongs, is owned by Rare. When booting up the DS game, the copyright info states, "Certain characters licensed by Rare". Perhaps Microsoft and Nintendo saw the other characters as nothing major, so they allowed it. As for Conker, he's tied to an M-Rated game now, so adding him would be troubling. Banjo had his next game coming to Xbox 360 at the time (Nuts & Bolts), so Nintendo decided to not include him as to not promote a competitor's upcoming game. Remember that at the time, Nintendo and Microsoft were still fierce rivals.

Conker had become too associated with BFD to include, which is understandable, but I think Banjo was removed purely because either Nintendo or Microsoft simply didn’t want to cross-promote or give up a big IP character like that to a competitor. Rare technically made a couple of Banjo games for the GBA without issue, but they couldn’t do Diddy Kong Pilot due to the very same licensing shenanigans. It’s odd, but it just comes down to what Nintendo and Microsoft want at any given moment. Rare owns Conker, though, so his cut was definitely just due to his M-rated image.

And hold them dear to our hearts.

Still don't get why they had to replace Roo, was it that much harder to animate her walking outside her vehicle?
