This week on Unskippable Dialogue, Pearse and Conor go full banana-mad as we review Donkey Kong Bananza, the brand-new Switch 2 adventure from Nintendo EPD Tokyo, the powerhouse team behind Mario Odyssey and the Galaxy series.
From Void Co.’s corporate villainy to Pauline’s musical awakening, molten-banana endgame chaos, and Donkey Kong’s most expressive makeover yet, we break down everything this jungle odyssey throws at you.
Expect discussion on DK’s new animations, modern Nintendo design philosophy, the “layered planet” level structure, unique power-ups (yes, including the emu/ostrich), sound design that absolutely slaps, and why every rumble, bongo and “OH BANANA!” feels so good in the hands.
We also get into:
The tonal balance between kid-friendly chaos and nostalgic DK weirdness
And yes, we absolutely discuss the DK timeline, why you need to “touch grass” if you care too much about it, and Nintendo fans collectively losing their minds at Poppy Kong’s design.
If you love gaming podcasts, Irish gaming podcasts, Nintendo reviews, retro-inspired platformers, or simply hearing two grown men lose it over potassium content… this episode is for you.
UD is a weekly Irish gaming podcast serving up honest game reviews, deep dives, retro throwbacks, and sharp commentary on the world of gaming.
