History YMMV / DKVine

* MisBlamed: Shigeru Miyamoto was blamed for Rare not producing a new ''Donkey Kong Country'', due to his [[NeverLiveItDown infamously disparaging quote]]. Nevermind he later became a huge force in getting a new game made, he became the center of paranoid conspiracy theories wherein he was directly out to sabotage Rareware, in such ways as "forcing" ''[[VideoGame/StarFoxAdventures Star Fox on Dinosaur Planet]]'' and [[InvisibleAdvertising mispromoting]] ''VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay''.

* AssPull: Almost half the canon fixes in the fanon. From [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Master Hand]]'s Interdimensional Chest of Time to Diddy Kong' prosthetic [[VideoGame/MarioGolf golfing]] fingers, this site will throw anything at the wall to explain away inconsistencies.

** They also have this with non-Rare fans, considering the general perception of the company outside the site has't exactly been in their favor.

** ''Videogame/DonkeyKongJungleBeat'' is a surprising aversion. It ''is'' considered to be canon by the site, though a RunningGag is that it was [[AllJustADream just a great drug trip]]. Perhaps considering it part of the original canon is a TakeThat against its creators, who wished to avert that.

* FandomRivalry: While at least some members are ''VideoGame/FireEmblem'' fans, their disdain towards ''Fire Emblem'' characters being added into ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' has caused this with the larger ''Fire Emblem'' fanbase.
