Yoshi's Island DS: Baby Donkey Kong

Post by VikingBoyBilly »

You'd expect it to be the same Donkey Kong Mario fought in his first adventure that escaped from the zoo, right (i.e. Cranky Kong)? But he looks more like Donkey Kong Jr. (Donkey Kong from the Country games).

Does this make any sense? Do you think the original Donkey Kong is so much older than Mario that he had a baby and still isn't an old man by the time Mario encounters him? But wait... that should mean Donkey Kong Jr. would be an adult relative to Mario as well, but he isn't. He's still a baby while he tries to rescue his dad from Mario.

So maybe they just got the design wrong in Yoshi's Island DS, or this makes no chronological sense whatsoever :crazy :foot

PS: Are Diddy and Dixie chimpanzees or young gorillas? The fact Kiddy is related to Dixie suggests the latter.

Mario and its affiliations make as much sense as an 8-year old boy with an IQ of 314 :crazy

Wasn't there some sort of time warp involved, so that both Baby Bowser and Adult Bowser could both be in it?

Yeah, there's that too. But the baby donkey kong is in his natural time period. Wait, now that I think about it, it's possible that he's not.... epic paradox :crazy

CONCLUSION: Play the original, or Tetris Attack. Damn that game is addictive. I beat the super-hard mode yesterday and I am proud of myself because that is INSANE.
