There's something so heartwarming about Miyamoto presenting these colorful real life worlds of his creations, and doing it with such a visible child-like joy at the same time
Yeah well Miyamoto didn’t really create the Donkey Kong Country sub series, Rare did. And I don’t like how he acted like he created all of it. He only created the original Donkey Kong’s design (Cranky Kong) and that’s it really.
@Mario87456 if I'm not mistaken, I think the only time he mentions creating something himself in the video is the original arcade game. Then he mentions the series evolving and he doesen't mention himself as a part of it
@@PrixtoTNT I guess he does, but the way he was acting about it before, someone uniformed would have probably assumed he created all of it and that really bothered me.
Miyamoto is such a fun, wholesome, and cheerful guy. I always love seeing the joy in this man’s eyes and hearing the excitement in his voice. He’s such an amazing and creative person
True. And according to DeathBattle, DK's punches can ignite the oxygen in the atmosphere. Since we can observe Miyamoto-San giving DK a full on fist bump with no damage to his skeletal structure whatsoever, we can therefore conclude that Miyamoto's fists can also hit with the same oxygen igniting force. Therefore we can at the very minimum conclude that Miyamoto is at least an equal to Donkey Kong when it comes to physical prowess.
I'm glad that they did, because it fits the spirit of DK so well, bringing Mine Cart Carnage and its ilk to life. I think if it had been just a generic mine cart coaster it wouldn't have been anywhere near as impressive.
I love that Miyamoto brought up the fact Donkey Kong came out 40 years ago and the irony of it all. Universal Studios sued Nintendo over Donkey Kong stating that it was too similar to King Kong. Jack Kirby, Nintendo's lawyer, proved however that King Kong was public domain. Just imagine going back in time during all that and tell Nintendo that in 40 years they and Universal will make a an attraction based on Donkey Kong Edit: I meant to say John Kirby, not Jack Kirby. My bad
@@Funhaable When you really think about it, it’s surprising Nintendo decided to go to Universal for this, you would think they would hold a grudge against them for that lawsuit but I guess not apparently.
@@Mario87456 Corporations don't "hold grudges against each other" lol, if it makes sense from a business standpoint then a collab is never out of the question.
I never thought I would live to see a Nintendo theme park. Hopefully, I will get a chance to visit Super Nintendo World within the next two years. I want to ride that DK roller coaster.
i'd love to see a zelda area with aspects from all(or at least most) zelda games! just one reference to vaati lol but more realistically, at least the big games that aren't just botw/totk, like oot, wind waker, twilight princess and all would be fun
I KNOW THERE IS A ROCKET BARREL LEVEL HIDING SOMEWHERE IN THERE!! The minecart ride is damm amazing, and hearing the mine menace motif play at the start gave me chills!
It's an ongoing thing that Miyamoto does. Super Nintendo World in Hollywood, California has a lot of Pikmin statues and figures tucked away around the Super Mario blocks and coins. Also when Miyamoto presented at a press release wearing a suit once, he had a green pocket square on his jacket. When he pulled it out, it turned out to be the top of a leaf of a Red Pikmin plush doll hidden in his pocket. Miyamoto is very proud of his Pikmin series, so he likes to stick them around as little references in pretty much every project or game he's involved with.
Man, I wanna see the rest of the Kongs in this park! Like Diddy, Funky, Swanky, Candy, Chunky, ALL of the Kongs that ever made an appearance! I think they deserve to be in the park!
It can be seen that all of this is very specifically inspired by Donkey Kong Country Returns; I see now why they're porting it to Switch in January next year.
I wonder if for Cranky's animatronic, they got either Takashi Nagasako (his VA in the games), Ryusei Nakao (his VA in the Japanese dub of the DKC cartoon), or Naomi Kusumi (his VA from the Japanese dub of the movie) to voice him. Either way, this is looking phenomenal so far!
I know that this is Super Nintendo World and based on the Retro Studios DKC games and that Rare's name is nowhere on it, but i would feel so excited if i was an original designer for DKC 1 and got to see things like the minecarts, banana horde, Diddy, Cranky, and Funky, etc. all brought to life. Stellar looking stuff!
@@Mario87456they never did that. Nintendo shaggy told them to make the characters from scratch Nintendo owns all rights as they were the one giving tips and advices like make a monkey with a banana size toy and make a girlfriend for him and his baby child. etc.
For those who are wondering where the King K.rool and Kremlings are: This park is based on the newer Donkey Kong Country games Returns and Tropical Freeze, which are essentially a soft reboot of the old Rare series, in which K.rool and the Kremlings do not appear. However, Nintendo has the rights to the characters as they have already appeared in post Rare DK games like King of Swing, Jungle Climber, Barrel Blast and even some Mario spin-offs like Sluggers. Its just that Nintendo apparently no longer wants to use them in favor of new ideas.

Cause while this is nice and all, nobody cares. Some of us are like you are giving us everything but what we actually want. Don't care about an Indie Direct, don't care about a Museum Direct, don't care about a Theme Park we are never going to go to. Just give us games in a normal Direct, or the initial teaser of Switch 2.
Dude, we're STILL getting people complaining over there being no Smash reveals...a game that is no longer receiving content. Live chats are never the brightest
In their defense, the announcement said "No game information will be announced here", not the boilerplate "there will be no information about the Nintendo Switch successor". It still wasn't the most likely hope, though.
Pros: -The animatronics look amazing -The Mine Cart Ride looks fun -The food looks delicious Cons -The land doesn’t quite feel like a jungle…it needs more trees. Maybe even giant fake trees to make it seem more like the games -No K Rool. I know Nintendo wants to push their latest entries in the DK series, but K Rool and the Kremlings are more iconic -Some of the buildings/waiting areas could’ve used some more detail/decoration…I know they want to make it look like the games, but they need to add a little more
Another pro that wasn't mentioned in this direct: Universal created a special kind of roller coaster cart that has enough space between the actual track and the main seating area so they can put a dummy track between the two to simulate track jumping.
The food is disgusting it's exploited animal products, I see this video I don't see my childhood or somehwere to gather energy I just see a franchise built for profits.
That might be tough logistically. It seems that there's only a few seconds between your car and the cars around you, I wouldn't be surprised if multiple trains are on the lift hill at the same time
Sad there's no Kremlings. I wasn't expecting it since they don't have Kremlings in anything nowadays and this park seems primarily based on returns, but some small cameos or something would have been nice.
@@andrewg.3281 Nintendo has an irrational hatred for King K. Rool and the Kremlings I am afraid. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate should have put an end to it but sadly not even that could end their irrational hatred toward King K Rool and The Kremlings
@SG002 Yes! The whole nintendo land, with mario and donkey kong included opens along with the rest of the new "Epic Universe" areas in Florida next may!
This looks amazing! Can't wait until Super Nintendo World opens in Orlando, the teams behind all of this have really put everything into making this an immersive experience. Keep it up!
This is really amazing. I’m so glad I was watching this. I hope that they opened up the donkey Kong land at Universal Studios in Hollywood who knows time will tell but either way I am happy that they’re opening up one in Japan.
I mean, going by the official and rumored stuff. The next land would be, of course Zelda. And after a while, we’re probably not gonna get anything new like the idea was that Nintendo was going to have universal 3 land specifically since that’s usually around the amount of Pacific IP areas are within 10 years
I didn't even know this Direct was scheduled for today! I wonder if the DK they interacted with was someone in costume, or an animatronic. Cranky seemed to be an Animatronic, right? Nice to see Rambi, Cranky, Squawks, Funky (sort of), & Dixie get acknolwedgement. Where was Diddy, though? Anyway, neat video! Thanks for uploading!
I wonder how it feels to know that your creations were so loved and so successful that they ended up spawning its own theme park? A sensation of success I'll never even feel a fraction of.
I’m so glad that I got to go to Universal Studios Japan back in July as well as experiencing Super Nintendo World. However, it’s unfortunate that I didn’t get to experience the Donkey Kong area because of the delay of the opening which was originally for the Spring of 2024. Thankfully I live in the southeast coast of the USA so I can be able to experience the new land area early at Epic Universe once the park opens.
6:52 "It looks kind of familiar..." I am an absolute sucker for seeing contemporary iterations of offer nostalgic references to its previous incarnations. It's kind of why I love Final Fantasy XIV. This right here is a perfect callback to the game that started it all for DK. I love seeing these sorts of things.

That might be tough logistically. It seems that there's only a few seconds between your car and the cars around you, I wouldn't be surprised if multiple trains are on the lift hill at the same time
I hope we do get to see King K Rool, It wouldnt be a Donkey Kong Country without the villian.
Looks Great! It just needs King K. Rool.
🏴☠️👑🐊
The Walt Disney of Nintendo..What a legend.
My only criticism is the lack of Kremlings. Doesnt feel like DK isle without King K Rool.
Maaan, I'm so excited for this! Coming to Orlando in May. 😍
Do you have your tickets yet?
Is it at the Orlando location? This is showing the one in Japan.
Regardless, have a nice trip.
@@lordphinix3yes it will at the new park opening in May
@@Zaakro Yup! Got tickets for opening weekend. 🙌🏼 Can’t wait! Going to be posting sooo much footage. 🤣
@@lordphinix3 The one in the video is Japan, but the same land is opening in Orlando. Already got my tickets! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I cannot fathom the amount of joy I have experienced watching this, I can't wait t visit once it opens in America!
Sad there's no Kremlings. I wasn't expecting it since they don't have Kremlings in anything nowadays and this park seems primarily based on returns, but some small cameos or something would have been nice.
I agree. Maybe have like a sign somewhere that says "K.Rool was here" or something. Maybe they'll add more to the DK area in the future.
Or maybe they could appear as mascots.
Hey if Pikmin made a cameo again then Im sure the Kremlings would. If there is one thing Nintendo likes to do, its reference themselves.
@@andrewg.3281 Nintendo has an irrational hatred for King K. Rool and the Kremlings I am afraid. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate should have put an end to it but sadly not even that could end their irrational hatred toward King K Rool and The Kremlings
The Kremling/K. Rool erasure needs to STOP 😤😡
Thanks for giving us this tour. Hope you can add this ride in California.
It’s coming to Florida!!
@@Pl_Neptune It is?
@@SG002yepp at the new theme park "Epic Universe!"
@SG002 Yes! The whole nintendo land, with mario and donkey kong included opens along with the rest of the new "Epic Universe" areas in Florida next may!
@SG002 yep, it's going to be there opening day of the new park. May 22nd 2025
Miyamoto is the Goat of nintendo, great presentation as always
This looks amazing! Can't wait until Super Nintendo World opens in Orlando, the teams behind all of this have really put everything into making this an immersive experience. Keep it up!
Me too. i can't wait it!
I love Universal Studios!!!!
I can already see Dashie going back to Japan and punch Donkey in the face in person. XD
He can probably do that in Florida too since it’s also going to be at Epic Universe as well.
Looks very impressive, but I’m very disappointed that they don’t acknowledge King K. Rool. He’s literally Donkey Kong’s archnemesis!
Can't wait for this in Florida next year 🤩
4:27 These are pretty cool bananas. AAAHHHHHH
HELP
Oh GrEaT hEaVeNs
*ÆEE*
Dashie is gonna have a Fun Day with this one, gonna meet up with his rival face to face XD.
DONKEY?!?!!!
The fight we have all been waiting for
This is really amazing. I’m so glad I was watching this. I hope that they opened up the donkey Kong land at Universal Studios in Hollywood who knows time will tell but either way I am happy that they’re opening up one in Japan.
Leave it to Japan to never change. Still that same old Nintendo feel. Love Miyamoto.
6:47 pikmin
I can see it!
the donkey kong country park has more pikmin references than k rool references..
I hope the next are is Zelda Themed, cant wait for my next japan trip/ first Nintendo World Visit ❤
I mean, going by the official and rumored stuff. The next land would be, of course Zelda.
And after a while, we’re probably not gonna get anything new like the idea was that Nintendo was going to have universal 3 land specifically since that’s usually around the amount of Pacific IP areas are within 10 years
so glad i lived long enough to see this even just thru a screen in half its imagined form.
I didn't even know this Direct was scheduled for today!
I wonder if the DK they interacted with was someone in costume, or an animatronic. Cranky seemed to be an Animatronic, right?
Nice to see Rambi, Cranky, Squawks, Funky (sort of), & Dixie get acknolwedgement. Where was Diddy, though?
Anyway, neat video! Thanks for uploading!
Pretty sure DK was a costume. And Diddy Kong was on the hot dog if that counts.
I’m so excited for this to come to America!!!!
Me too
So They're Finally Here.....Performing For You!
LMAO I KNEW they wouldn’t do K. Rool! There’s no way the Tikis are more marketable than him, even if this is based on DKC Returns.
We don't even see the Tikis anywhere, they're only mentioned by Miyamoto.
i hope king k rool is added somewhere in the park at some point!!! he's one of the most iconic OG Nintendo villains!! xoxo
I love the pikmin being murdered by the barrel at 06:57
Omg Dixie! I was weirdly overjoyed to see her on the mine cart ride.
3:08 When you just counted to J and know what's about to come next.
I feel like that was part of a Sesame Street skit.
I wonder how it feels to know that your creations were so loved and so successful that they ended up spawning its own theme park? A sensation of success I'll never even feel a fraction of.
I’m so glad that I got to go to Universal Studios Japan back in July as well as experiencing Super Nintendo World. However, it’s unfortunate that I didn’t get to experience the Donkey Kong area because of the delay of the opening which was originally for the Spring of 2024.
Thankfully I live in the southeast coast of the USA so I can be able to experience the new land area early at Epic Universe once the park opens.
As a DK fan, I can say that THIS IS DK APPROVED
6:52
"It looks kind of familiar..."
I am an absolute sucker for seeing contemporary iterations of offer nostalgic references to its previous incarnations. It's kind of why I love Final Fantasy XIV.
This right here is a perfect callback to the game that started it all for DK. I love seeing these sorts of things.
I will always love Nintendo.
38:42 That has clearly not been the case *Cries in Nintendo Switch*
The video it's now 11:02 long, what part did you put?
@@WERV2003 8:53 probably this where he says "[Donkey Kong]'s continued to evolve with each new system"
Where are King K. Rool and the Kremlings?
Would be mad funni if everyone in the park came with Kremling Krew related stuff when the DKC area opens, just saying lol-
Universal's Epic Universe needs a Kirby attraction of some kind
And also a Pikmin attraction and the Splatoon attraction!
At the very least, they could add a Kirby Cafe...
@@Mr.Feather130 ok I kind of doubt pikmin and splatoon are getting areas, especially since other attractions would need to be cleared out
@ I’ll be down for that!
@@justanothermollusk5829 if that's the only thing they would add Id be so satisfied with it
