      Any theories on Mii Party's timeline while we're at it? But if there was a timeline, Wumpa League would have to be the first game in the series with Tawna's Timeline.
      Ah, a videogame designed by Coco Bandicoot! In CTR: Nitro Fueled canon, it fits.

    That could be possible as to why Coco Bandicoot is a gamer in the first place. Maybe N. Gin has introduced Coco to video games in the first place while doing some testings in Cortex’s laboratory?

Even through they exist, I remembered that Crash and Coco only knew they beat Cortex only 3 times.. it’s possible that Spyro eventually visit them eventually and started doing this collab but that’s all I can think of from this.

  • @midas3324
    @midas3324 Před 9 měsíci +6

    Great video! However, there are a few things I think you are missing. First of all, remember that Aku Aku and Uka Uka were also once supposedly natives long before Papu Papu was around. So while it does make sense to say that the tribe created the games, it does not necessarily mean Papu Papu was around for the origins of the games. (Also he could still be added later for all we know, so his absence does not necessarily mean anything yet, even though it is weird that none of the natives are there besides the masks)
    Secondly, there is a loading screen tip in Rumble that specifically says that Wumpa Fruit grow in crates, but you are right that a harvest season does imply that it can only take place at certain times of the year. That said, the Wumpa Games may be more symbolic now and may have evolved over time (evidenced by the relic stations existence as the OG natives were unlikely to have that kind of tech) becoming less traditional over time. Similarly, just like with real life agriculture, perhaps they have developed a way to grow Wumpa year round, negating the necessity for a particular "harvest season" I do agree that the Tawna and N.Tropy thing makes no sense at all though.
    None of this debunks your theory, if anything , I also see this being a game created by Coco but based on a "real" sport in their world, similar to how the Madden games are, and the lore explanation may be an explanation of the origin of this "real" in universe sport, even though we are just playing a simulation of it. Overall, I agree, just figured I'd add a few additions and corrections.

  • @Twillek1019_
    @Twillek1019_ Před 9 měsíci +2

    Here’s what I think. The Wampa Harvest started out in the main dimension we know about, but Coco was like, “hey you know what would be cool? How about we make this a team battle across the multiverse? Get our friends and rivals from other Dimensions to join in the harvest” and then Coco started to set up everything, even getting a commentator. Either that or Coco just created a game based off the wampa harvest but on a grander scale. Or could simply be a classic case of breaking the 4th wall and meta humour

  • @CocoTeamRacing

    I agree that Rumble can be a game created by Coco, but not that the events of Rumble didn't take place. The existence of the comics is evidence that the events in Rumble are taking place, unlike Crash Team Racing we just don't know what started this event between the characters. If it were all just a game why would the devs bother with using the comics to explain Catbat and the Spyro characters? If it were all just a game then they would just be dumped in there with no explanation. I think Toys For Bob is just holding off on the story premise and are focusing more on the seasons and bug fixes for now. Now this doesn't necessarily mean that Coco can't have developed a game based on the Events taking place in Rumble, which is where most of this evidence points towards.

    That conversation between Tawna and Femtropy cracked me up. I can definitely see your point though.

Your theory certainly fits well with that type of narrative.

  • @nightshadowx3502
    @nightshadowx3502 Před 9 měsíci +2

    Honestly, I'm not a fan of the idea that Crash Team Rumble is an in-universe videogame. Why? Because Crash Team Racing isn't. Crash Team Racing and the PS2 games are now alternate dimensions after Crash 4 brought back the multiverse setting to the series. The Bermugula's Orbit dimension in Crash 4 has references to Nitro Kart and Nitro Fueled, implying that this is the Racing dimension. I think Rumble is more interesting as an alternate dimension and deserves to be one.
    To explain your points about the teams and wumpa collecting, it already happened in Crash Team Racing. Characters that should hate each other were competing in harmless races before Oxide showed up, and items that belong to a specific character like Brio's beakers are used by everyone as a game mechanic. The wumpa collecting in Rumble is half being a game mechanic and half being a harvest season tradition turned into a competitive sport played in other places, at any time of the year.
    The videogame that we see them playing at the end of Crash 4 could be a parody of Rumble, while the real Rumble that we play is the story given by Toys for Bob in that Q&A. I think as an alternate dimension, Rumble has more space to grow since Toys for Bob don't have to worry about adding characters that haven't appeared in the main timeline (Crash 1 to 4) yet or Rumble being the debut of other guest characters in the Crash franchise, as it could eventually be Banjo-Kazooie now that Toys for Bob is an Xbox studio.
