It's no mess at all. It didn't start as DKR, Diddy came into it much later at Nintendo's request. So only Diddy is in Nintendo's pocket. Banjo and Conker now fall under Microsoft so were removed to avoid license issues. They could have possibly been in the game but it would be bad business, just how releasing a Halo game on the Wii would be.
