'''Mecha Donkey Kong''' is a giant robot of [[Donkey Kong]] that appears in chapter 5 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' [[Super Mario-kun Volume 12|volume 12]]. Due to its size, it might be a nod to the [[Giant Donkey Kong]] fight from ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]''.

The [[Ghost (Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3)|ghost]] reveals to [[Mario]] and [[Yoshi]] that the access for [[Syrup Castle]] can be unlocked by collecting three numbered crystal balls. The first crystal ball is guarded by Donkey Kong, but while fighting it, the gorilla is revealed to be a robot in disguise that can use propulsion jets, retractable horns, and a fire breath. After Mario notices that Yoshi has recovered some of [[Wario]]'s (who has gone missing) [[Pauline's lost items|stuff]], he uses them to access the slot machine to earn [[San Mario|three extra Marios]], with whom defeat the Mecha Donkey Kong with hammer pounds. The Marios destroy the robot, revealing Wario inside the control panel: he was previously kidnapped by the ghost and forced to operate the robot, and Mario discovered it by noticing how Mecha Donkey Kong's gadgets gave the same powers each [[Power Up Pot]] gives. With Mecha Donkey Kong defeated, the first crystal ball is collected, but Wario takes it and flees.
