This is a list of profiles and statistics for Donkey Kong.

Donkey Kong series

Donkey Kong Country

  • Instruction booklet bio: The king of swing, the thrilla gorilla, the prime primate; it's Donkey Kong! But this is not your father's Donkey Kong! Although he is a relative of the classic arcade character, Country's Donkey Kong is a totally new character, with a new look, new moves, and a new attitude.

Donkey Kong 64

He's the leader of the bunch, you know him well
He's finally back to kick some tail
His Coconut Gun can fire in spurts
If he shoots ya, it's gonna hurt
He's bigger, faster, and stronger too
He's the first member of the DK crew!

  • Instruction booklet bio from Professor Cranky Kong: "About time that lazy good-for-nothing went adventuring again. He's the leader of this mangy bunch and tells me he has learned a whole new bunch of "mean, reptile-stomping" moves. I doubt that they will be any better than his old ones, but we shall see, shan't we?

  • Name: Donkey Kong
  • Occupation: Professional ape
  • Hobbies: Drumming the bongos
    Bodybuilding
  • Favorite dish: Coconut Souffle
  • Favorite movie: The Konginator 2
  • Greatest hero: Jean-Claude Van Kong

Sometimes the apple falls far from the tree. Donkey's father, Cranky, was extraordinarily successful in his younger years as a video game wrongdoer. Since the end of his career he has been trying to make Donkey his successor. But he had no desire to kidnap innocent girls as an notorious fiend just to have them rescued by another hero. Donkey preferred to be the hero himself, and has long since made a name for himself in this respect. Proudly he wears the highest medal of the DK Islands that is awarded for exceptional service in the name of the Kong clan: the red necktie. Thanks to his muscular strength, Donkey is the most important defender when the Kremlings once again have nothing better to do than to steal the entire banana supply of the Kongs.

DK: King of Swing

# Name Image First Game / Move Description
4 Donkey Kong
(Classic)
Donkey Kong Donkey Kong
Arcade 1981
While he now prefers the laid-back jungle lifestyle to construction site mischief, DK is often forced back into action by the Kremling Krew. The great ape is quite fast despite his burly physique, and he keeps his strength up with a steady diet of his favorite food: bananas. His one extravagance (and only piece of clothing) is a monogrammed necktie.
5 Donkey Kong [Smash]
(Adventure)
Donkey Kong B Button: Giant Punch
Smash B Button: Headbutt
Donkey Kong is a huge target in a fight, so he hates crowds. When he's in the fray, his Giant Punch deals serious damage to multiple opponents. The big ape's Headbutt hits so hard that it temporarily buries opponent's in the ground. DK is a lot faster than he looks, and he's lethal in the hands of a master.
6 Donkey Kong [Smash]
(All-Star)
Donkey Kong Up & B Button: Spinning Kong
Down & B Button: Hand Slap
Being the strongest simian around, DK has the upper hand once he grabs an opponent. He can even lift his foe up and make him or her an unwilling traveling companion; if DK grabs you, shake your Control Stick as fast as you can to break his grip. His Spinning Kong covers more lateral distance than vertical, so use it quickly to recover.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

  • Website bio: "It’s Donkey Kong, ruler of the jungle. The original giant powerhouse makes a triumphant return! Looks like his giant punch is still the haymaker you remember. Don’t doubt his strength or you’ll end up with the ultimate headache!"
  • Instruction Booklet bio: "The large king of the jungle. He moves with surprising agility."

Snake's Codec

  • Snake: Otacon, there's a gorilla wearing a tie here. He's huge.
  • Otacon: That's Donkey Kong. As you can tell, he's got strength to spare. He may be king of the jungle, but he lives in a house just like you or me. And he seems pretty smart--well, for an ape, anyway. The Donkey Kong who fought that epic battle with Mario was this guy's grandfather.
  • Snake: That was a long time ago. What about this Donkey Kong? Does he get along with Mario?
  • Otacon: Nope, they're still at it. Seems like they're always competing in something--kart racing, sports, you name it.
  • Snake: A chip off the old block....

A carefree jungle dweller with the charisma of a natural leader. He keeps busy by foiling the plans of the Kremlings and their boss, King K. Rool. As his physique suggests, this ape is a powerhouse. He's got speed to match too, and his love for bananas is second to none. His famous necktie is adorned with his initials, DK.

Press the buttons in time to the music, and the sound waves may grow stronger. DK's invulnerable when launching this attack, but he's also immobile, so be careful using it on scrolling stages.

Wii Donkey Kong Country Returns (11/2010)
This king of the jungle really, really loves bananas. His adventures start with people stealing his hoard of them. In Smash Bros., he's known for his incredible strength and long reach. Despite his size, he's still pretty quick. He can even jump carrying heavy items! Use this knowledge well. With help from Diddy Kong and his Animal Friends, this banana-loving king of the jungle will take on anyone causing trouble on his turf. The best things about him in this game are his colossal strength, his speed, his long reach and the fact that he can jump while holding heavy items. Make sure you use all that to your advantage!
Donkey Kong (Alt.) Donkey Kong All-Star Trophy.png Donkey Kong trophy from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U SNES Donkey Kong Country (11/1994)
Wii Donkey Kong Country Returns (11/2010)
Donkey Kong pulls no punches when it comes to fighting. Or headbutts, as it turns out. His Headbutt special move will bury anyone on the ground who gets hit, leaving them open to serious damage. If Donkey Kong strikes an airborne foe with this move, they'll go crashing downward. Donkey Kong's always been one to use his head. Anyone who's been on the receiving end of his Headbutt special will tell you that. If they're on the ground when it hits them, they'll get buried, leaving them open to a serious walloping. If they're in the air, though, they might find themselves being knocked down. Either way, it's going to hurt.
Konga Beat N/A Konga Beat trophy from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U In this Final Smash, DK drums on a set of bongos, just like in the Donkey Konga games. Press the attack button in rhythm with the circles to boost the attack's range and power. Enemy attacks won't affect you, but you can't move, either. Auto-scrolling stages will slow down but won't stop - don't get too carried away in the beat! In this Final Smash, DK drums on a set of bongos, just like in the Donkey Konga games. Press the attack button in rhythm with the circles to boost the attack's range and power. Enemy attacks won't affect you, but you can't move, either.

Donkey Kong + Barrel Train BarrelTrainTrophy3DS.png N/A N/A This mean machine may look like it was meant for the tracks, but really it was made to soar. That fine wood finish isn't so great in the water, though. I bet more than a few players have fond memories of the Barrel Train and its first driver, Diddy Kong. This kart might look like it needs to be on rails, but it's actually great in mid-air. Like any barrel, though, it has a tendency to float. In a race that comes down to speed in water, it'll get left behind. The name "Barrel Train" might ring a bell for Mario Kart veterans—it was Diddy Kong's kart!

Palutena's Guidance

  • Pit: Looks like it's me versus DK.
  • Palutena: His arms are like tree trunks, so his attacks are incredibly powerful. Given his size, he also moves quite quickly. Combine that speed and power with his long reach, and you've got an opponent who's good at almost everything!
  • Pit: Yeah...except for dressing himself. That necktie really doesn't leave much to the imagination.
  • Palutena: True, but it is his signature look. It's probably best not to mention it.
  • Viridi: Yeah, you wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of one of his Giant Punches or smash attacks! When he attacks you, don't use your shield. Just get out of the way, and then counterattack.
  • Palutena: And watch where you come in for a landing!

Donkey Kong
"Although this mild-mannered king of the jungle isn’t the brightest banana in the bunch, he boasts exceptional strength with which he hopes to dominate the Olympic Games. Since DK and his friends normally live in the jungle, these Olympic Games are perfect for his training regimen. "

Miis' Dialogues (Wii U version)

  • Donkey Kong always wears the same red tie with his initials on it. I had no idea apes had such fashion sense! Still, a set of cufflinks might be nice...
  • Donkey Kong's favorite food is bananas, hands down. Despite being tasty, bananas are quite nutritious, which might explain why he's so big and strong. Maybe if you eat a whole lot of bananas, you could grow up to be as strong as DK himself!
  • Donkey Kong has an easygoing pal named Diddy Kong. They go on lots of adventures together, backing each other up in areas where one or the other excels.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020

  • Website description: "King of the jungle and superstar of the Kong Family. He's so strong, it isn't funny. He'd do anything for a banana or ten."

    • Yellow: "The Dr. Donkey Kong Pack is available for purchase for a limited time. His stage mode skill lands with a boom and then pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop! It eliminates nine objects. The pack comes with 260 diamonds too."[2]

「ドンキーコング
ジャングルの王者で、コングファミリーのスーパースター!
大きな体で、すごい怪力の持ち主!巨大なタルもかるがると投げとばすし、地面をたたいて大きくゆらすことだってできちゃう!
でも、ふだんはやさしくて、ちょっとボンヤリしてるかも?
相棒のディディーコングや、おじいちゃんのクランキーコング、ほかの仲間たちとも協力して、ジャングルの平和をみだす悪をこらしめているよ。
バナナが大大大好物!!家にはいつもたくさんのバナナが置いてあるよ。取ろうとすると、すごく怒るから気をつけて!」

Donkey Kong
The king of the jungle, and the Kong family's superstar!
He possesses a large body and extraordinary strength! He can also easily hurl massive barrels, and can smash the ground, causing huge tremors as a result!
But, he's usually easy-going, though maybe a bit absentminded.
By working together with his partner Diddy Kong, his grandpa Cranky Kong, and other similar friends, they punish anyone who disturbs the peace of the jungle.
Bananas are DK's greatest, most favourite food ever! He keeps lots of Bananas in his house all the time. If you try to take them, watch out, because he'll get awfully angry!

  • This king of the jungle is superstrong, a little scatterbrained, and absolutely nuts about bananas. His adventures usually start with people stealing his hoard of them. As his physique suggests, this Kong is a powerhouse, but he's got speed to match too! His famous red necktie is adorned with his initials, DK.
