At one point, Donkey Kong Country was given a seat on the Global Economic Development committee, where it proposed a world currency based on bananas. The measure failed 8-2.[3][4]

During another hearing, the fictional country was praised by Mario and Luigi, performers initially thought to be members of Italy's delegation. The duo sang a rendition of "Do the Mario!" before being escorted out of the chamber.[5]

Somehow people were psyched af for a platformer with fake 3D graphics. Aladdin or Earthworm Jim were fundamentally similar in their approach to graphics and arguably more impressive graphically, but the gaming industry rarely makes sense ime. 5 million units shipped, champ.

Wing Commander for the PC used this approach too. Pre-render 3d models at different angles into bitmaps and then just switch them and scale them as needed. Looked much better than the polygon-based alternatives like X-Wing.

To be fair, a lot of African countries were getting renamed, and a bunch of new countries popped up at that point given the USSR's fall.

Hard to blame them for trusting a list of countries they found online on Nintendo's world wide web page. The Internet had mostly been run by universities up until then, so the default assumption was that you could believe the sources you came across.

It's not too late for some breakaway African province to actually do this to boost tourism.

jfc I had no idea they changed names. Well if they're willing to be Eswatini whatever the fuck that means they should have no problem being Donkey Kong Country and redoing their monarchy to have a banana theme. Think of the tourism dollars.
