Are all these DK videos driving you bananas? I'd like to ask now, what do you think of the format I've kinda been going for, that being, having a few videos on the same game out around the same time, Like how I had a bunch of PunchOut!! videos near one another, now a bunch of DK ones. I still throw in other ones in between, but still, I want to know what you guys think: Keep a theme for a while, or keep making various ones all over?

Those other things can be easily explained. 1. If gorillas live about 35 years that would put Cranky in the perfect time frame to be baby DK. 2. You said it yourself that would be his first starring role. 3. Donkey Kong Jr. picked a fight with Mario which makes picking another fight with him "back to his old tricks". There isn't any other reason why modern DK can't be in Mario versus Donkey Kong. The *_REAL CONTROVERSY_* is; is modern Donkey Kong Cranky's grandson, or son. In Donkey Kong Country it makes it seem like he's his grandson while Donkey Kong 64 is vice versa. I feel like it makes more sense for him to be his son since Donkey Kong Jr. raced in Mario Kart and now modern does, and it fills the whole of what happened to Donkey Kong Jr.

Carmen Herrera you do realize lore can change in a series, right? Look at Donkey Kong for the Gameboy. It shows "Mario's" first time entering the Mushroom Kingdom. His first time entering was during SMB1, which was just him coming out of the sewers. Two completely different first entries into the Kingdom, and Cranky Kong was there with him too. Nintendo doesn't care about the timeline, so they don't realize they created two different first time entries for Mario into the Mushroom Kingdom. And when was Yoshi's Island DS not canon, it happened after Yoshi's New Island. Donkey Kong Country stars Cranky's grandson modern DK, whom was in Yoshi's Island DS with baby Mario. You didn't even link proof that Yoshi's Island DS isn't canon, so stop speaking bullshit. Nintendo doesn't care about Mario's plot, so they never acknowledge any of the games that prove that Jumpman is Mario's father. Also Paper Mario TTYD takes place in a different universe.

So I question if it's really canon.

I’m surprised that pretty much nobody ever brings this up, but both "modern" Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr., unchanged, appeared at the same time in the first Mario Tennis game for the N64. There’s even a victory screen with Jr. where he gets held by DK. So that must mean an adult modern DK is holding, his… *father as a child?* I’m sorry but this theory just makes no sense to me. Manuals are not exactly the most reliable when it comes to lore, they couldn’t decide on who Birdo is after all. I think the most likely explanation is that Cranky Kong is someone else entirely who just *admired* the classics. Maybe he could be DK Sr.’s friend, or brother, or whatever, but he’s not *the* DK. I don’t believe he would’ve aged so rapidly from the 80’s to the 90’s that quickly either, I know these are apes and monkeys we’re talking about but "modern" DK hasn’t aged one bit since his debut 30+ years ago. Some people like to point out Tiny Kong for evidence of aging as well, but again people are only relying on specific manuals and fail to realize that maybe she’s just been aged slightly to change her proportions to differentiate her more from Dixie. Overall, there *is no canon* for Donkey Kong, they just decide what they like best for how everyone and everything looks. That’s it. The DK we have now may as well be the same from the arcades but with a different attitude embracing newer trends. I always thought Cranky was a parody to represent older fans anyways, with DK himself not giving a crap. They even used his modern design to represent the original Donkey Kong for Pac-Man’s Smash Bros. reveal trailer at the end, along with Mario. *They are the same character.* You can’t any more official than that. The Mario vs. Donkey Kong game series mentioned here should’ve been the indicator since day one, but people don’t want to accept that for some reason. This isn’t even to mention the fact that Diddy Kong at one point in development was also intended to be called DK Jr. even with his redesign as well, but only made him an entirely separate character because Nintendo thought he "looked way too different" in the end, hence him just being his friend or nephew. Why DK Jr. hasn’t been seen much after the GBA era is anyone’s guess though. Maybe Nintendo just doesn’t think he was worthy of being brought back for more games and didn’t want him to be confused more with Jr.? Or maybe he just eventually grew up a little bit and went on his own separate path? I have no idea. But regardless of the reason, they clearly do not want to give any sort of real attention towards him anymore outside of referencing older games before Donkey Kong Country. (The Donkey Kong Jr. arcade game itself and Super Mario Kart especially) Oh yeah, and if you’re still unconvinced, to top it all off there’s also Donkey Kong '94 for the GameBoy, which is also basically a direct prequel to the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series and Super Mario Bros. series. I’m not making anything up, this is all just official stuff. Donkey Kong today is the same Donkey Kong from the arcades, *confirmed.*

It is my theory that the Mario from the 1981 arcade game, also known as "Jumpman," is the father of Mario and Luigi. Thus, the Mario that we all know and love today is actually "Mario Jr." In my own version of Super Mario lore, Jumpman and Pauline married several years after the Donkey Kong incident and had Mario and Luigi. Donkey Kong Jr. was full grown around this time and had Donkey Kong III (the current Donkey Kong) with an unknown female Kong. I think this explains why Mario and the current Donkey Kong appear to be around the same age, having appeared together as babies in Yoshi's Island DS. As far as Pauline from the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series, she is not the same woman from the 1981 game but a cousin of Mario and Luigi who was named after the original Pauline. That's how I like to explain it all.

Jumpman is Mario's father, and Pauline, Mario's mother, could just be having a weird midlife crisis in Mario vs DK. Part of this is explained in Game Theory's Mario timeline video. As for modern DK capturing Pauline, maybe just seeing her stirred up some old feelings. You can expect that Cranky has told Donkey Kong about the stories of him and Jumpman, and how Jumpman abused Cranky, causing Cranky to capture Pauline, then about how Jumpman took Pauline back, kept Cranky in a cage, and terrorized DK Jr, Cranky's son, by beating animals with a whip to force them to go after DK Jr (explained in GT's Mario mental series). For those of u saying that Cranky once referred to DK as his son, grandfathers do that sometimes. Although I do wonder where DK Jr is while this is all happening.

There are some rather simple ways to explain those points: 1. Yes, there's a Baby DK alongside Baby Mario, but... that isn't the MARIO of the arcade games either! At least, according to MatPat, and he gives some pretty good reasons for this. Instead, THIS Mario is likely his SON, and depending on how you want to spin things, that could make Baby DK either DK Jr. or DK the 3rd. 2. The quote says (emphasis added) "I'm improving my skills for my NEXT big adventure in Cranky Kong Country!" This actually implies that he's been on at LEAST one other adventure in the past, thus invalidating the whole point. 3. Ah, my favorite bit of plot untangling... you know how in the arcade games, DK is antagonistic to Mario? Well, my theory is that the FIRST Mario Vs. DK game (technically the second, since the Game Boy's Donkey Kong ('94) plays a LOT like it after the original four levels of the arcade) is the FIRST DK and Mario, but that the act of kindness at the end REFORMS the big ape, leading to their prosperous career of translating their past escapades into game form. All OTHER games in that series are in-world promotional materials made by the CURRENT Mario and DK, and thus never happened "off-stage" as it were. As for why Pauline doesn't look any older... it's probably a combination of good genetics and excellent physical care, as would be expected of someone of her apparent importance.

I would go with the old sources first and dismiss what the new games say. I know this would be bad practice in something like real history or science, but this is the video game industry. If Nintendo originally said that Cranky Kong was THE Kong who fought Jumpman, then that's what I would stick to. I would guess to simplify the story, Nintendo changed the story that it was Donkey Kong all along.

DKC2 GBA Intro cutscene confirms this, and Cranky is DK's Grandfather. The original team that worked on DKC 1 and 2 did not work on DKC 3 or 64. They were working on Banjo-Kazooie and some other N64 games, while another Rare team worked on DKC 3 and 64. This explains the "son" error in DK 64, as the new team wasn't as knowledgeable on the series as the original team.

The first time that any DK has ever appeared with a tie was in the Game Boy game titled "Donkey Kong" that came out in June 1994 (a few months before Donkey Kong Country). This would mean that the DK from the barrel-throwing days was the first one to even wear a tie, so it would be ridiculous to assume that any DK wearing a tie is the one from Donkey Kong Country. It's probable that Cranky Kong picked up the tie sometime after his first encounters with Mario and later passed the tie down as family heirloom of sorts. The point that the barrel-throwing Donkey Kong was the first to wear a tie makes him the definitive tie-wearing Donkey Kong.

For Mario, Luigi and Pauline not aging, I like to pretend Mario And Luigi: Partners In Time was canon, and that the characters you play as are either the original Jumpman Mario and Luigi and that you're protecting the modern day Mario and Luigi. This could explain Pauline having blonde hair in the past but brown in the future, (when the current DK was abducting her). Or my other theory is that, by altering the past with baby forms of themselves, they've created some kind of Limbo where nothing really changes anymore, including age. I dunno, I'm overthinking it, Nintendo needs to either fix lore, or just stop altogether. It's too confusing.

There's also the theory that Jumpman is Mario's father, which rules out Yoshi's Island DS. But Nintendo has stated numerous times that Jumpman is Mario. That phrase, "old tricks", is a hole, but maybe it means DK is up to his old tricks that "his grandfather" did yet again, or we are seeing what happens when Nintendo give their icons to different companies.

His "old tricks" was causing mayhem with Mario's toyline again. The game was a sequel to the first (GBA) Mario vs DK game. And he DID do the barrel thing in THAT game. I assume that's a family thing, along with an interest to the humanoid female form (no surprise, he couldn't take his eyes off of Candy or at least was), and was compelled to follow Cranky's footsteps. As for the Pauline/Mario age thing. I have two theories. First, Nintendo has secretly committed their own revamped continuity where they can say Pauline has no ties to Mario despite the past games (and the koopalings are not Bowser's children). OR we tie in something like MatPat's theory of 'Jumpman' being 'Super' Mario's father. It didn't cover if this Pauline is unrelated to 'Lady' Pauline (Super Mario's mother in said theory) and their shared appearance is just a super weird coincidence. Of course the old Pauline only wore the sexy red dress in marketing in the marketing she wore a simple pink dress. Unless you count the old game boy...ohmygod IT MAKES SENSE NOW! Okay, assume the Gameboy DK '94 is the retelling of the complete story the arcade classic only started with. (the arcade was like one of those animes that stop 1/4 through the manga because it was a good stopping point) That game stars a young Cranky, DK jr, Jumpman Mario, and 'Lady' Pauline. At the end, the pair are in the MUSHROOM KINGDOM (Cranky had been running everywhere after all) and she gives Jumpman a magic mushroom to make him big. Suppose they take adavantage of their long journey and decide move there. At some point they cuddle up and a pair of baby boys are delievered to them via stork (after much difficulties and time travel whohaa). Enter the MatPat SMB timeline theory with my point there being an unrelated superstar actress who happens to look a lot like Super Mario's mother in her prime.

I pretty much assume that timelines are an alien concept to most Nintendo franchises, especially when Mario is concerned. As far as I can tell, Nintendo tends to make games apparently randomly and then later on try to force them into timelines to appease the fans or attempt to make some order from the chaos. At least, that's my impression.

In the 1994 Game Boy game, DK sports his modern design, and is seen with DK Junior. So perhaps Cranky had started wearing a tie at some point, and therefore might be the one in the Mario vs Donkey Kong games after all. Or maybe I'm overthinking video games again. Whichever.

You seem to have forgot Donkey Kong for the Game Boy, so I took a quick look at that..In it (specifically on the box art and the Super Game Boy), Cranky is portrayed as very similar to modern DK except the hair on his head is slicked back and the "DK" text on his tie is white. So Old DK has been portrayed with his own tie, but the Mario Vs. Donkey Kong DK is still obviously the modern one. On a side note, the ending of the game depicts Mario, literally in SMB's 1-1, getting his first mega mushroom, right as DK Jr. arrives to rescue his father. It segues into 2 games simultaneously.

Alright, so I have a theory about the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series. So, in the first game of the series, Mario opens this toy factory and Donkey Kong falls so in love with the toys that he steals them. Even after Mario confronts him, Donkey Kong just acts pitiful because he wanted a toy so badly, so Mario gives him a toy anyway. In the second one, Mario opens a theme park, and DK becomes infatuated with Pauline and offers her a Mini Donkey Kong toy, which she turns down in favor of the Mini Mario toy. This formula continues in the whole series... What if this is all just a marketing scheme? Think about it. Mario and DK have always been on good terms, and here Mario is trying to start a business. In order to garner popularity, he pulls this publicity stunt, reenacting the famous scenes from the original Donkey Kong and hiring an actor to play the role of Pauline, although the ultimate message of all of these is how great the product at hand is. DK, Mario, and "Pauline" are all just playing roles in an advertisement. Even the actual gameplay all revolves around the applications of the toys. This would mean that the MvDK series don't break the canon of the other games and the DK lineage is as we believe it to be. Food for thought, at least.
