*''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'': The | *''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'': The "[[Opening (Donkey Kong)|Opening]]" theme of this game is arranged into the main theme. The introduction sequence when Donkey Kong climbs some ladders with Pauline is referenced at the end of each non-final boss battle through both music and action, as Donkey Kong similarly runs off with Pauline to another attraction. Objects such as [[Red Girder]]s and [[Blue Ladder]]s are reminiscent of stage elements from ''Donkey Kong'', as are the [[Hammer]]s which play their original jingle when in use. In fact, [[Area 5-2]], a level that contains all these elements and [[Fireball (Donkey Kong)|Fireball]] enemies, appears to be a direct homage to levels like [[25m]] and [[75m]] from ''Donkey Kong''. | ||
