*''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'': The title 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''.
