Trivia[]
- In the past, Cranky was the original Donkey Kong from the 1981 arcade game, and his son was Donkey Kong Jr.. However, when they both aged into being Cranky Kong and the current Donkey Kong, respectively, Mario has remained the same age as he was in the past. Especially jarring when compared to Yoshi's Island DS, where Baby Donkey Kong was presumably Cranky Kong, having worked alongside Baby Mario.
