I find it interesting that they chose to give Pauline fully voiced lines in Bananza. I wonder if this is something they’ll keep doing in the future with other characters or if this is just a one time thing.

>Cranky is meant to be the original Donkey Kong who kidnapped Pauline
>Donkey Kong Bananza features a new younger version of a Pauline
>Can't be a retcon because Cranky still references the events of the arcade game
So is this a recton? Separate universe? Time travel stuff? Just like a daughter of Pauline?
