People learning fantasy languages is nothing new; for example, there are more enthusiasts who can speak Star Trek's Klingon fluently than there are for some actual languages. And, well, there's no sign of it stopping: Ahead of the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 game, YouTuber 2Chrispy posted a video titled "I Decoded the Ancient Monkey Scrolls of Donkey Kong Bananza," in which they – surprisingly – decode the ancient monkey scrolls of Donkey Kong Bananza.
During the reveal trailer for the game during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, 2Chrispy noticed that some of its signs had some banana-based glyphs, and after poring through the Nintendo Treehouse, gameplay clips, and the Nintendo Today app, they managed to put some things together.
