Donkey Kong's character design was created by [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] for the ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' arcade game, in which Donkey Kong kidnaps [[Mario]]'s original girlfriend, [[Pauline|Lady]]. Miyamoto says that he chose the name "Donkey" to reflect the character's stupidity,<ref name="Wired">{{cite|author=Kohler, Chris|date=October 14, 2016|url=www.wired.com/2016/10/miyamoto-donkey-kong-secrets|title=Miyamoto Spills Donkey Kong’s Darkest Secrets, 35 Years Later|publisher=Wired|accessdate=June 20, 2024}}</ref> while "Kong" was considered a generic term for large apes in Japan.<ref>{{cite|url=www.snopes.com/fact-check/donkey-kong-mistranslation|title=Was the Name 'Donkey Kong' the Result of a Mistranslation?|publisher=Snopes|date=February 24, 2001|author=Mikkelson, David|accessdate=June 20, 2024}}</ref> Miyamoto was later informed by [[Nintendo]] of America staff that the word "donkey" is not a synonym for "idiot" in English, but he decided to ignore this because he liked the name "Donkey Kong".<ref name="Wired"/> However, this is contradicted by the deposition he gave during ''{{wp|Universal City Studios, Inc. v. Nintendo Co., Ltd.}}'' He stated that his proposals for Kong's first name were rejected and that he was unaware of who came up with it. Export manager Shinichi Todori's deposition revealed that he came up with the first name after trying to translate「頓馬」(''tonma'') into English. It was either [[Gunpei Yokoi]] or [[Hiroshi Yamauchi]] who gave the final approval for the name.<ref>{{cite|author=GamingHistorian|date=January 22, 2020|url=x.com/GamingHistorian/status/1220101899455692801?s=20|title=Gunpei Yokoi deposition, 1983|publisher=Twitter|accessdate=November 27, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite|author=Gaming Historian|date=September 29, 2021|url=youtu.be/aTyxQfpOEbE?t=749|timestamp=12:29|title=How the Mario Characters Got Their Names|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=June 20, 2024}}</ref> Excluding the title, the Japanese arcade instructions and flyer refer to him simply as「コング」(Kong). Prior to settling on "Donkey Kong," a variety of other names were considered; court documents for the Universal lawsuit list "Funny Kong," "Kong the Kong," "Jack Kong," "Funky Kong," "Bill Kong," "Steel Kong," "Giant Kong," "Big Kong," "Kong Down," "Kong Dong," "Mr. Kong," "Custom Kong," "Kong Chase," "Kong Boy," "Kong Man," "Kong Fighter," "Wild Kong," "Rookie Kong," and "Kong Holiday."<ref>{{cite|author=Norman Caruso|date=January 30, 2020|url=x.com/GamingHistorian/status/1222939644217757697|title=Before settling on the name "Donkey Kong," Nintendo considered a ton of other ideas. ....not sure who suggested "Kong Dong" 😳|publisher=X (formerly Twitter)|language=en|archive=web.archive.org/web/20200205024112/https://twitter.com/GamingHistorian/status/1222939644217757697|accessdate=June 29, 2024}}</ref> The name "Funky Kong" would later be reused for [[Funky Kong|a separate character]] in the ''Donkey Kong'' franchise who resembles Donkey Kong.

Donkey Kong is the main antagonist in the game ''[[Donkey Kong (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong]]''. Similarly to the original, Donkey Kong tries to prevent Mario from releasing Pauline by throwing barrels at him. Donkey Kong falls down when the four wires supporting his platform are loosened.  

Donkey Kong is an opponent in single-player mode and the second player's character in ''[[Donkey Kong Hockey]]''. In both cases, the gameplay involves both Donkey Kong and Mario competing in field hockey.

Donkey Kong is a non-playable character in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. The events begin with Donkey Kong relaxing on the beach.<ref>{{cite|date=1995|title=''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' manual|page=4|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en}}</ref> [[Cranky Kong]] shows up, arguing that Donkey Kong should not take a rest because he is a video game hero, to which Donkey Kong asks Cranky to leave after some discussion and naps on the beach.<ref>{{cite|author=Donkey Kong|location=Introduction scene|quote=Why don't you go pester Diddy or something!?

Donkey Kong is discovered much later on, tied up in [[Stronghold Showdown]] but is shortly carried up into The Flying Krock while Diddy and Dixie are in the middle of celebrating. The two make to make their way up to [[K. Rool Duel]] for a final showdown. In their first visit, Diddy and Dixie witness in shock as Kaptain K. Rool angrily beats Donkey Kong with his blunderbuss. Donkey Kong falls into view in parts of the battle when K. Rool is knocked down, still attempting to break free from his ropes and providing a [[DK Barrel]]. At the end of the battle, before K. Rool wakes up and attempts to harm Diddy and Dixie once more, Donkey Kong manages to break free from his ropes and lands a powerful punch, sending K. Rool out of his own airship into his own swamp. Donkey Kong is seen in the [[Completion|102% ending]] with Diddy and Dixie, watching as Crocodile Isle sinks underwater. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]], Donkey Kong does not appear in Stronghold Showdown, featuring a boss fight against [[Kerozene]] instead.

====''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' / ''Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D'' / ''Donkey Kong Country Returns HD''====

Donkey Kong is a playable character and the main protagonist of ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns HD]]''. The story similarly centers around the theft of the banana hoard, only this time by the [[Tiki Tak Tribe]]. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong witness from [[DK's Tree House|their treehouse]] as the banana hoard gets taken away, and [[Tiki Tak Tribe#Kalimba|Kalimba]] suddenly appears and knocks Donkey Kong back into his treehouse. Kalimba tries to hypnotize Donkey Kong, who is somehow unaffected by it, and the [[Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|first level]] begins directly after, starting with Donkey Kong beating Kalimba until kicking it out of his tree house. While journeying, Donkey Kong can [[roll]] and [[Hand Slap|Ground Pound]], similarly to ''Donkey Kong Country'', but when paired with Diddy Kong, he can roll indefinitely and briefly hover when Diddy uses his [[Barrel Jet]]. The two Kongs travel throughout the [[Donkey Kong Island|island]], being assisted by [[Cranky Kong]] and the [[Professor Chops|Tutorial Pig]]s along the way, before eventually entering the [[Volcano (world)|Volcano]] and battling [[Tiki Tong]]. Donkey Kong and Diddy reclaim their banana hoard after defeating him.

Donkey Kong is the main protagonist in the 1996 TV series ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]''. In it, Donkey Kong, due to finding the Crystal Coconut in [[Inka Dinka Doo]]'s temple, is predicted to be the future ruler of [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]]. Ever since, it has been made Donkey Kong's duty to guard the Crystal Coconut until the day it officially proclaims him ruler of the island. However, [[King K. Rool]] wants to steal the Crystal Coconut so that he can rule the island, and DK and his pals have to stop him and the [[Kremling Krew|lizards]], as well as another villain, [[Kaptain Skurvy]]. On this show, Donkey Kong is depicted as somewhat of a slacker who loves bananas above all else, much like his portrayal in recent games. On this show, he is also bipedal as opposed to walking on all fours like he normally does, although he sometimes goes on all fours when running. This would carry over to ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', though in that game, he stands on all fours when idle.

Donkey Kong appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. He has was given another personal course, [[Wii DK Summit|DK Summit]], in addition to both {{classic link|N64|DK's Jungle Parkway}} and {{classic link|GCN|DK Mountain}} returning. Donkey Kong receives a small boost of weight, acceleration, and handling, along with a small mini-turbo boost. Additionally, Donkey Kong has a similar in-game model to [[Funky Kong]] in the game, with them also using many similar animations due to the developers using Donkey Kong’s model as a base to create Funky Kong.<ref>{{cite|url=tcrf.net/Mario_Kart_Wii/Unused_Bones_%26_Animations|title=''Mario Kart Wii''|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=March 13, 2024}}</ref>

Donkey Kong is playable ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. His fur has a similar texture as in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''. While the official website states that he is a heavyweight, Donkey Kong is actually a lighter heavyweight, sacrificing some speed and weight to boost acceleration, handling, and traction. He shares this trait with [[Waluigi]], [[Rosalina]], [[Roy|Roy Koopa]] and [[Link]] in the original game but only Waluigi and Roy in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. Donkey Kong is the Staff Ghost for [[Thwomp Ruins]] and {{classic link|3DS|DK Jungle}}. Donkey Kong also owns a brand of sports drink which appears as a sponsor in the game, called [[Burning DK]].

Donkey Kong is also playable in ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', marking his first appearance as an unlockable playable character (not counting Super Duel Mode in ''Mario Party 5'') and his second appearance as an unlockable playable character in the series since ''Mario Party 5''. He can be unlocked if players earn enough party points to reach level 8 or if they scan a Donkey Kong [[amiibo]]. In Toad Scramble, he can break barrels to earn coins. His [[Brawny Dice Block]] has a 1 out of 3 chance to roll a 10, but other than that it will return a 0.

Donkey Kong returns as a playable character once again in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''. This time, he can also appear as a possible Jamboree Buddy (as long as he is not being used by a player or CPU) and can be recruited by beating his Showdown minigame, [[DK's Konga Line]]. His Jamboree Buddy ability allows the player to move to a random space before moving; the player has the option to decline to do so.

[[Bowser]] and [[Bowser's Minions|his minions]] steal Donkey Kong's banana hoard. As a [[Hammer Bro]] drives a car which contains all the bananas of Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong watches it from a cliff. Hammer Bro and the [[Goomba]]s aboard the car spot Donkey Kong and shoot [[Bullet Bill]]s at him. However, Diddy Kong comes out from a bush, and, with his [[Peanut Popgun]]s, shoots the Bullet Bills. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong then follow the Hammer Bro to retrieve the banana hoard. After finding their bananas, Bowser appears from behind with a [[Dark Cannon]]. As Bowser charges the cannon, Donkey Kong, realizing the danger, charges his Giant Punch. He then launches Diddy to the sky and out of harm's way, sacrificing himself in the process as Bowser shoots him with the Dark Cannon and turns him into a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]]. Later, [[Diddy Kong]], who (forcefully) enlisted the help of {{iw|smashwiki|Fox (SSBB)|Fox}} and {{iw|smashwiki|Falco (SSBB)|Falco}} sees a ship carrying Donkey Kong's trophy form to a mysterious floating island. Falco then follows it with his Arwing and takes the little Kong with him. He then drops him, and Diddy gets on his [[Rocket Barrel]], takes out his Popguns, and shoots the ship. After seeing this, [[Captain Falcon]] and [[Captain Olimar]] decide to help him and jump to the ship. Diddy frees Donkey Kong, and all four fight the Primids and other enemies.

===''Donkey Kong 64''===

Donkey Kong is first seen in the intro of ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'', losing to Mario in a tournament. He is a playable character in the game. Donkey Kong is partnered with Yoshi in doubles matches, replaced with Donkey Kong Jr. upon unlocking him.

At E3 2001, three ''Donkey Kong'' series titles were unveiled: ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot (2001)|Diddy Kong Pilot]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers]]'', and ''[[Donkey Kong Racing]]''. All three of these games were eventually canceled due to Nintendo selling [[Rare]] to {{wp|Microsoft Corporation|Microsoft}}, causing them to lose the rights to the ''Donkey Kong'' franchise.

{{quote|She came to have lunch with DK! Big, tall with lots of muscles DK! Not the [[Baby Kong|half-pint version]]!|Diddy Kong|"[[Ape Foo Young]]"}}

Donkey Kong is a [[Kong]] resembling a gorilla who sports a burly physique; in addition to having particularly large pecs, biceps and triceps, he is noted to weigh 800 pounds (363 kg) according to the talking [[Microphone]] that serves as the announcer for the fight against King K. Rool in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', as well as having the traditional large feet of primates with opposable thumbs. Donkey Kong also has brown fur, with the fur on his head being distinctly shaped to the point of looking like a hairstyle. As of ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', his fur has also consistently sported a realistic texture. The shade of brown his fur is colored, however, has been inconsistent between games, being either a lighter shade or its original darker shade. Donkey Kong wears only a single item of clothing: a red necktie with the "DK" logo printed on it in yellow and tied in a Windsor knot<ref>{{cite|title=[[List of miscellaneous Play Nintendo opinion polls#Donkey Kong makeover poll|Donkey Kong makeover poll]]|publisher=[[Play Nintendo]]}}</ref> from ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' onwards. In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', he wears a costume on top of the tie in all boards other than [[Bowser Land]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', a variant of him wearing a gladiator outfit instead of his tie appears. In most 2D artwork and in 3D appearances beginning around the mid-2010's, Donkey Kong has a more defined snout, sporting pointed nostrils akin to those of a real gorilla, a design change that largely stems from the original Miyamoto design.

In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', Donkey Kong has a more realistic look than his previous appearances. According to Shigeru Miyamoto, his design takes inspiration from his depictions prior to ''Donkey Kong Country'' in order to give him a more comical personality and design;<ref>{{cite|url=youtu.be/ohJrpHUoZ10?t=293|timestamp=4:53|title=The Super Mario Bros. Movie Direct – 11.29.2022 (Second Trailer)|author=Nintendo of America|date=November 29, 2022|publisher=YouTube|language=en-us|accessdate=June 20, 2024}}</ref> this can be particularly seen in the width and roundness of his face, which resemble the original Donkey Kong sprite and artwork more than the Rare-based design. His body is also more detailed, similar to his appearance from the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games.

In the ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' arcade game, the original Donkey Kong only spoke in growls as he took Lady (or [[Pauline]]) on top of a construction site, as well as when ascending further up the structure upon Mario completing a level (except for [[100m]]). ''[[Saturday Supercade]]'' depicted him with the ability to speak broken English in contrast to [[Donkey Kong Jr.]], his son. While he mainly verbalized realistic ape noises in-game provided by Mark Betteridge, the instruction manuals for the ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' showed that the current Donkey Kong has the ability to speak rather intelligently, which was also seen during the ending of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. Donkey Kong later spoke intelligibly in a few ''[[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' comics as well as ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]''. Donkey Kong first received voice acting in the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|1998 computer-animated ''Donkey Kong Country'' television series]], where he was portrayed by [[Richard Yearwood]]. Donkey Kong next received voice acting in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', where he was portrayed by [[Grant Kirkhope]], a composer for [[Rare]] and the ''Donkey Kong'' franchise. Here, Donkey Kong had a few lines where he spoke broken English while referring to himself in the third person. Grant Kirkhope would provide a mixture of cartoonish gorilla noises and actual words, including "Yeah!", "Cool", "Hey!", and "OK!". After 2006, [[Takashi Nagasako]] took over as Donkey Kong's voice actor, first heard in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', though he mainly provided him with cartoonish gorilla noises, although he is able to say his name, "Let's go!", and "Yeah, hey!" In current games where Donkey Kong is intended to speak in full sentences, there is in-game text to signify what he is saying. In the early ''Mario Party'' games, ''Mario Kart 64'', ''Mario Kart Super Circuit'', ''Mario Tennis'', ''Mario Golf'', as well as the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Donkey Kong is instead given chimpanzee screams and realistic gorilla roars, respectively, instead of a voice actor; Donkey Kong's voice clips from the N64 era use the Chimpanzee Screeches and Vocalizes from The Hollywood Edge Sound Effects Library.<ref>{{cite|url=www.whosampled.com/sample/515022/Nintendo-Character-Sound-Effects-The-Hollywood-Edge-Sound-Effects-Library-Chimpanzee-Screeches-and-Vocalizes|title=Nintendo's 'Character Sound Effects' sample of The Hollywood Edge Sound Effects Library's 'Chimpanzee Screeches and Vocalizes'|publisher=WhoSampled|accessdate=June 20, 2024|language=en}}</ref> In ''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'', Donkey Kong, as all other Kongs, is fully capable of speech and can normally talk to non-Kong characters, where he is portrayed by [[Seth Rogen]].

Donkey Kong is inconsistently depicted as somewhat dim-witted; in ''[[Fortune Street]]'', [[Toad]] remarks that Donkey Kong is the brawn while Diddy Kong is the brains, and he speaks in broken, third-person English for his few lines in ''Donkey Kong 64''; however, in other appearances, particularly during the ''Donkey Kong Country'' series, DK speaks fluent English much like the other [[Kong]]s. In [[The Subspace Emissary]], Donkey Kong is shown to be more cautious, sensing the danger of the Dark Cannon Bowser wielded and electing to get the impulsive Diddy Kong to safety. In [[Solid Snake|Snake]]'s codec conversation on Donkey Kong in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Otacon claims that Donkey Kong seems "pretty smart" for an ape. In a promotional video for the [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Banana Mania Contest|''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' Banana Mania Contest]], Donkey Kong inputs numbers on a calculator to make it display "BANANAS" when held upside down. This was in response to a request to the viewers to guess a number of bananas, which indicates Donkey Kong understands the prompt and chose to respond with a joke.<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=Feb 7, 2014|title=Canada's Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Banana Mania Contest|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgEy88I5WpQ|timestamp="1:10"|publisher=Youtube|accessdate=Feb 3, 2025}}</ref>

In the TV series, Donkey Kong's personality is largely the same, albeit depicting him as lazy instead of carefree. Donkey Kong is shown to have a somewhat stronger moral back bone, as shown in [[I Spy With My Hairy Eye]] with his reluctance to use the [[Crystal Coconut]] to wish for more bananas until Diddy manipulated him into doing it. Donkey Kong also seems easier to startle and more sensitive overall, but maintains an aggressive wariness of King K. Rool, Kaptain Skurvy and their goons.

:''Main articles: [[Cranky Kong#Identity confusion|Cranky Kong § Identity confusion]] and [[Donkey Kong Jr.]]''

Donkey Kong and [[Mario]] have had a rivalry for some time. The rivalry is witnessed in the ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series. However the rivalry is friendlier in spin-off games, as implied in ''Super Smash Bros.'', and in [[Solid Snake]]'s codec conversation from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Aside from their rivalry, Donkey Kong is good friends with Mario and gets along with him and his friends in some games such as the ''Mario Party'' series. Though the current Donkey Kong is large, he is actually quite a bit younger than Mario. Although Mario did fight Donkey Kong's grandfather in the original Donkey Kong game, [[Cranky Kong]] admits that Mario is a true [[Cranky's Video Game Heroes|video game hero]] and even looks back at his nostalgic antics with a fond respect. Donkey Kong and Mario do not seem to hold grudges against one another in spite of their occasional conflicts. One of the evident facts about this is whenever a player lands on a DK Space in the ''Mario Party'' series, Donkey Kong will reward them with coins and stars. Another sign of Mario and Donkey Kong's friendship is how quickly Mario forgives a remorseful DK in the ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series by giving him the toys, and in ''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'' where they quickly become friends despite their [[Great Ring of Kong|initial rivalry]], and ultimately work together against [[Bowser's Minions]].

*[[Sterling Jarvis]] (1997-2000, singing voice)

*"''"What do you know about adventuring, you [[Cranky Kong|flee-bitten old ape]]?" yelled Donkey Kong, edging closer and closer, braving Cranky's cane, until he was totally in his face. "I'm sick and tired of hearing about your boring, single screen adventures! Diddy's in trouble, my banana horde{{sic}} is gone, and I'm going to get them all back!"''"

*"''Arr, you got me confused with someone else. I'm Donkey Croc the pirate, arr, and I'm looking for Donkey Kong the ''(mimics monkey)'' ape.''"
