** The fourth phase, K. Rool starts off by ground pounding the floor until his butt hurts. While he cringes, [[Incredible Shrinking Man|Tiny Kong]] enters through a hole in his shoe and [[Agony of the Feet|shoots feathers at his toes]] until he loses his balance and falls over.

* [[Anthropomorphic Shift]]: In this game, Donkey Kong tiptoes, walks, and runs like a human, but otherwise stands and acts like a gorilla.

* [[Artistic License Music]]: Two of the playable characters' instruments don't sound like their real life counterparts. Donkey Kong's bongos are much more melodic than real bongos, but it's particularly egregious with Chunky Kong's triangle. It actually makes the sound of a celesta, a completely different instrument!

* [[Convection Schmonvection]]: Several areas of this game have lava where they probably shouldn't. The "lobby" to Crystal Caves, an '''ice cave''', has lava at one end. The second battle against Dogadon takes place inside a lava-surrounded arena inside '''a tree'''. Also, it's unclear if that green stuff in Creepy Castle is [[Palette Swap|Palette Swapped]] lava, or acid. And the lava in one section of that temple in Angry Aztec with the llama acts just like the quicksand in the main level.

* [[Hello Nurse]]: Candy Kong. Even K. Rool goes nuts over her. The fact that her dialogue (sounds like it) contains a lot of innuendo contributes. Her [[Sexophone|theme song]] in her store supports this even more.
