This is a list of profiles and statistics for Funky Kong.

Donkey Kong series

Donkey Kong Country instruction booklet

• Page 26: "Funky Kong, Donkey Kong's bronze tanned, sunglasses wearin' surf punk friend, usually hands out at Donkey Kong Country's many beaches. However, he also operates a special Barrel Flight service which will allow Donkey and Diddy to travel back to any level in the game that they have already finished. Although Funky hates to go on adventures himself (he's too laid back) he keeps up on the island scene and may have useful information at times."

German Donkey Kong 64 website

"The coolest ape in the world has once again changed his occupation. Some time ago he discovered his predilection for weapons technology. He has succeeded in transforming harmless tropical fruit and colorful feathers into effective projectiles. Switches that are located outside the range of the Kongs or that cannot be activated even using all of one's body strength no longer pose a problem due to the use of these special weapons. The integrated target functions and the add-on target-searching-ammunition make the weapons an indispensable aid in the search for the golden bananas. Funky also offers, as a further service, refilling of the ammunition supply. The weapons and their extensions, however, cannot be had for nothing. But Funky always has especially low prices for his friends."

Name	3DS Image	Wii U Image	Appears in	NTSC-U Description	PAL Description
Funky Kong			SNES Donkey Kong Country (11/1994) N64 Donkey Kong 64 (11/1999)	Has he remodeled his personal jet into a shop? Maybe he thinks it will encourage his items to "fly off the shelves." He claims he ran an airport once... Maybe that's true. Much like his style of conversation, I'm sure it was a pretty funky experience.	Funky Kong's turned his private plane into a shop, all in some kind of effort to make stuff "fly off the shelves".. Classic jokes like that and the way he says things like "tubular" might make you think you're back in the 80s, but that's all part of his charm, right?
Funky Kong + Offroader	N/A		Wii Mario Kart Wii (04/2008)	You may wonder why this kart is called the Offroader when its off-road ability is so average. But a true off-roader is a kart that can take on the world and survive--and this kart fits that description to a tee. It handles like a king, and if other karts try to ram into it, they'll be the ones crying. It has just one big weakness...drifting.
