{{ | {{rewrite-expand|section=y|specify which episodes the banana hoard appears in}} | ||
The banana hoard appears in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' animated series. Unlike in the games, it is a banana plantation that occupies a sprawling field close to Donkey Kong's house, and acts as one of his preferred hangout spots in episodes such as "[[Bad Hair Day]]" or "[[Buried Treasure (episode)|Buried Treasure]]". One notable difference from the games is that the banana hoard is not as important as it is in the games as King K. Rool hardly spares it a thought, and is far more interested in stealing the [[Crystal Coconut]]. Notably, this field also grows a rare dark blue-violet strain of banana known as Tim Banana Tu, which is the only cure for the Kong Bongo Gone Wrongo disease, as shown in "[[Speak No Evil, Dude]]". | The banana hoard appears in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' animated series.

Despite being the first explicit appearance of Golden Bananas in a game, the manual implies that they were part of the banana hoard previously.<ref>{{cite| quote = Hmm... well, I have to hand it to them. This time they’ve managed to come up with a decent storyline that doesn’t involve the usual golden bananas. Only joking kids! This one’s worse than all the previous efforts put together!

The banana hoard returns in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and | The banana hoard returns in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. In the opening sequence, [[Tiki]]s hypnotize the animals of [[Donkey Kong Island]] to steal them. In the first level, [[Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Jungle Hijinxs]], as the Kongs go through the level, the [[Tiki Pilot]] is shown in a ship with all of the bananas stolen from the hoard. | ||
During the seventh boss fight against [[Colonel Pluck]] and his Stompybot 3000, it is revealed that the bananas are used to reproduce the Tiki Tak Tribe. The bananas are also used to transform seven high-ranked tikis into the two giant hands of the main antagonist [[Tiki Tong]]. After defeating him, the [[Volcano (world)|Volcano]] erupts bananas, presumably the same ones from the banana hoard. Several of them even hit into a statue, activating the path to the [[Golden Temple]]. | |||

The banana hoard is stolen by [[Bowser]] and his minions during the events of {{iw|smashwiki|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He sends out a [[Hammer Bro]] and a [[Goomba]] to steal the bananas. An enraged Donkey Kong chases after them, but when he finally gets out of [[The Jungle]], they are driving too fast and are too far from him. The Goomba notices DK and jumps to two [[Bill Blaster]]s which fire three [[Bullet Bill]]s toward Donkey Kong. Diddy Kong then jumps out from the jungle and uses his [[Peanut Popgun]] to blast them out of the sky. They follow after the thieves and eventually reach the banana hoard, only to discover that they have walked into a trap. Bowser turns Donkey Kong into a trophy while Diddy Kong is sent flying by his friend to safety. | The banana hoard is stolen by [[Bowser]] and his minions during the events of {{iw|smashwiki|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary}} in ''[[Super Smash Bros.
