The Green Fox Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Remember Donkey Kong Country? Donkey Kong's banana horde gets stolen by King K. Rool etc, but my question is WHY? Why did King K. Rool want Donkey Kong's banana horde? King K. Rool was a crocodile, crocodiles are meat eaters, I mean seriously what was Rareware smoking when they thought up that plot?

For the most part nothing's logical in videogames so stop making an ass of yourself pondering about it in the forums.Well sure, I know, but even most video games have a vague logic to them. Bowser wants to kidnap the princess so he can become ruler of the mushroom kingdom. That motivation makes sense. K. Rool's motivation to steal DK's bananas doesn't quite make sense to me. Rofl. I know. I'll ask him. K. Rool, why steal bananas?K. Rool: Banana milkshakes are good. And I'm a kremling, not quite a crocodile, and my species likes to eat bananas just as much as monkeys do. Plus, I want to convert them into Banana weapons so I can conquer DK island for myself.Me: Oh. How could I be so foolish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarFoxIII Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I concede that Rare is known for not making much sense, but that's why everyone enjoys their games. People deal with rhyme and reason so much in everyday life that sometimes they wish to get away from it all; it's escapism in otherwords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Fox Posted November 21, 2009 Author Share Posted November 21, 2009 I think I'll make a video game about a tribe of rabbits that guard over turnips, and there's this evil tiger that wants to steal all the turnips for himself.note: I'm not bashing Donkey kong, it's a fun game. The plot doesn't quite add up though. Lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 If you want to go technical, animals don't have the intelligence to fly arwings, command space armadas or simply talk in our language. Videogames are meant to be fun and fantasy related (sometimes), not to be real-life accurate, so anything is possible, even if it's silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcory Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Er well according to his Melee trophy, K. Rool is something of a lunatic so a lot of the things he does aren't going to make very much sense.If you want to go technical, animals don't have the intelligence to fly arwings, command space armadas or simply talk in our language. Videogames are meant to be fun and fantasy related (sometimes), not to be real-life accurate, so anything is possible, even if it's silly.That's a good point. Starfox along with many other game series have factors in them that just don't make sense because they're fantasy. Still, humans do have the tendency to try to get logic out of everything so I suppose that's why we're having this discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Fox Posted November 21, 2009 Author Share Posted November 21, 2009 Mario makes PERFECT sense. Two brothers live in a mushroom world, and have to save a princess from a turtle who breathes fire, it made PERFECT sense, in a fictional way, you follow?

The Mario series never really makes much sense to me. The Mario bros. are supposed to be plumbers so why are THEY saving the mushroom kingdom from Bowser? (Btw Bowser is a Kappa not a turtle even though they resemble each other.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePointingMan Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 See, Mario does make perfect sense though, not in the way of the characters, but both Mario and the villain have reason for what they are doing. See, the problem isn't whats the deal with that world, it's wheres the reason for doing what your doing. I coulda been explained better, but I'm sure everyone will get the point across with this.

Rool wanted to be a Jackass and take Donkey Kong's bananas, and Donkey Kong...well Donkey Kong just wants his dang bananas back. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Green Fox Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 I wrote a fanfic that explains it all. K. Rool got hit on the head by a coconut, went insane, and started believing he was a monkey in need of bananas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
