Donkey Kong Country (video game)/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The Donkey Kong Country series has a few moments:
    • DK and Diddy falling out and beating each other up at the end of Donkey Kong Country. An example: Diddy bites DK's finger, after DK dropped a merciless punch on the top of the monkey's head.
    • "Rattle Battle" in Donkey Kong Country 2, in which the player spends the level as a giant bouncing coiled snake with buckteeth, bouncing on enemies' heads while the most insane Benny Hill-esque music plays.
    • In Donkey Kong Country 3, after beating KAOS for the second time, K. Rool appears and says "Oh no! My wife is going to kill me! I used all her best pots and pans to build him!"
    • Donkey Kong Country Returns: The intro cinematic. After hypnotizing the rest of the animals to steal DK's banana hoard, one of the Tikis tries to put the ape under his thrall. Cue the beginning of the first stage, where DK promptly sends the Tiki enemy flying.
    • Donkey Kong Country Returns has a rocket barrel level where you end up being attacked by bats. At the end of the level, a giant bat bursts through the floor and roars at you. In response, DK just gives him an annoyed wave off and gets back to flying. When it starts chasing him at the end, he face palms. It's a little touch that's completely hilarious.
  • This troper always gets a chuckle out of hearing the enemy Kremling death screams in DKC2 and DKC3. "AUGH!"
  • Believe it or not, Diddy gets his own ending if you beat the final boss as him in DKCR. But you ask, how can little Diddy send the Moon into Tiki Tong's Tower? Well, he uses his head, meaning he sees the moon, panics, and activates his jetpack while trying to run in the air. Only for his jetpack to malfunction, sending him headfirst into the moon.
  • Anything that comes out of Cranky Kong's elderly mouth on the Instruction Books. Some examples...

"Look at the fancy box. Look at the size of this instruction manual. You don't think they would have gone to all this trouble if the game was any good, do you?!"
