'''Bongos''' appear in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] as musical instruments, and often also a weapon for attacking enemies.
'''Bongos''' are drum-like instruments first encountered in the game ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''; however, they have become much more used in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] since then.

Bongos appear in ''[[Donkey Konga]]'', where they are first found by Donkey Kong and [[Diddy Kong]] half-buried in the sand at a beach. The bongos are taken by them, with plans on becoming expert players and holding concerts to make lots of money and purchase lots of [[banana]]s. During gameplay, Donkey Kong has to beat the bongos to the rhythm of the music. The bongos are used in the same way in ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]'' and ''[[Donkey Konga 3 JP]]''.
