Players who bought the Nintendo Switch 2 with the laser focus of playing Nintendo’s exclusive titles may have been disappointed that the sole first-party experience available at launch was Mario Kart World.

Just like Super Mario Odyssey's Power Moons, Donkey Kong Bananza has lots of collectibles, mainly Golden Bananas. Although, the best part about DK Bananza's take on this is that the collectible marathon is given a bit of a backseat, no longer essential for reaching new levels.

Confirmation of Donkey Kong Bananza’s developer is something of a deviation from Nintendo. In recent years, the company has sidestepped questions about which teams and studios are behind its unreleased games.
