Miyamoto decided on Donkey Kong Bananza’s dig button placement


Wondering why Nintendo decided to chose the B button as the dig button in Donkey Kong Bananza when it is typically used as a jump button in the company’s platform games? Well, it is all thanks to the legend that is Shigeru Miyamoto. The game’s director, Kazuya Takahashi, revealed to Nintendo Dream that Miyamoto was the one who suggested that B should be the dig button rather than the jump button. Mr. Miyamoto told Mr. Takahashi that it felt more intuitive to use B as Donkey Kong is digging downwards.
