In Yoshi’s island DS, the babies were all already “born”. They were just stolen from their homes and the storks returned them to their homes at the end once the Yoshis rescued them. So they aren’t necessarily the same age. Maybe extremely close in age, but not necessarily the exact age.

Agreed. I feel like the girls (Peach and Daisy and Rosalina) must be a bit younger than the boys (Mario and Luigi.)

Then I remembered playing Partners in Time, and how baby Peach was always sitting in her pram or could crawl a bit and not talk, while little Mario and Luigi could walk, talk a few phrases ("thank you very much," "let's go") and do all their playable maneuvers jumping platforms and fighting enemies.

Cranky was not DK's grandfather in the DK Country games. He was always his father. Cranky was the DK of the original arcade game, and the DK of DK Country was DK Jr, from the DK Jr arcade game. In the original Super Mario Kart he was even called Kong Jr. Since apes age faster than humans, becoming mature adults at aroung age 8 (for gorillas), we can assume that the baby kong that was the same age as baby Mario was Cranky, and that DK Jr was born when Mario was in his teens. That would put him as a young adult now.

Well, the Mario Movie may just be it’s own continuity, in fact, it seems most likely imo, the story is supposedly Mario’s first adventure in the Mushroom Kingdom, yet Donkey Kong, Mario Bros., lots of other pre-SMB games, and even SMB itself, which is *also* supposed to be their first Mushroom Kingdom adventure aren’t taken into account in the movie’s story, and the characters have pretty different personalities, especially DK, Bowser, and Peach, so it’s either the games that started it all are canon, but the movie’s not, or the movie’s canon, but the early games aren’t. Take your pick! Also, I think I remember in an interview for Mario Wonder, the devs said they didn’t want the movie to influence the games very much, so the lore in it also probably wouldn’t affect the game’s lore either, so DK JR. probably still exists in the games, especially since he recently appeared in Mario Kart Tour, (though still pixelated,) so Nintendo hasn’t forgotten about him yet! Anyways, it’s always nice seeing someone else who likes Mario lore! Quick edit: “Mario’s first adventure in the Mushroom Kingdom” in this context specifically refers to as an adult, i.e., not including Partners in Time and other games featuring Baby Mario.

DK Jr is DKC DK they didn't erase him, they gave exponential growth to his character, in fact DK Jr. being DKC DK kind of makes Him the character with the most development

One detail. The change of Kranky Kong being from DK's grandfather to father was done first in Donkey Kong 64. In one of the first dialogues of the game Kranky calls Dk his "good for nothing son."

You do know that in English you can say "son" to just talk to someone younger right?

Correction: Cranky was always Dk's father.

I figured out DK Junior is the new Frankie Kong

iirc DK Jr would grow up to be the DK we know, so it makes sense to make Cranky (og DK) his father, right? Where exactly did people got that idea that he is his grandfather?
@Joker3180Z6 ай бұрын
Cranky likes flaunting his age and in the DKC games he calls himself the grandfather of DKC DK Despite being his father Fans wanting to Believe Cranky then came up with DK III This blew way out of proportion like the severe misunderstanding of a line that made many people believe Vivian is trans, despite Vivian being Female

To be fair the Mario movies DK could just be Jr. who long ditched being called junior

Cranky being DKs dad would mean that at least in the mario movie DK Junior is actually Donkey Kong

that's the case even in the games DK64

I always thought jump man Mario was thirty five years old and Wario was maybe two to five years older then that.

Remember when Mario unleased a massive black hole that consumed his entire world only for it to be reborn again as a new galaxy? Yeah, that's very important Mario lore.

I trust whatever the KZbinr Carlito says at this point since he has to do a bunch of wild research for videos on Donkey Kong and Mario. The dude is pretty much becoming "the Donkey Kong guy" at this point, if he isn't already.

Cranky is still dk’s grandfather in the games the movies are different also the first one wasn’t a retcon because nothing changed
@Joker3180Z6 ай бұрын
Cranky only refers to himself that way but He's the father of DKC DK not the Grandfather
@kiawegamer6 ай бұрын
In fact, wasn't Illumination's decision at all Nintendo themselves (or even Rare, who knows) called Cranky as DK' father since DK64, so... is just required to pay attention to dialogues and not just keep pressing A, at least is not the obnoxious owl from Ocarina of Time But in your favor, that retcon is always changing, the same happens with "who was the original DK, Cranky or our current DK" they just don't decide which version to take as the right one, and they switch to the most convenient when required

Fun fact: The very first idea for Mario name for his first game (DK arcade) was Ossan. It means "middle aged man" in japanese. Even tho it was abandonned i just thought it's worse mentioning

It's almost like the Mario Movie is a different continuity that has no bearing on the game lore.

Cranky Kong being donkey Kong's grandfather before is a bit confusing because what is it donkey Kong junior is cranky Kong's son and then donkey Kong is the son of donkey Kong Junior but then you see donkey Kong Junior as a child in Mario tennis alongside his grown-up son donkey kong. It's just too weird.

Cranky’s his GRANDFATHER?! I thought the DK we have now was the kid in JR, and cranky was the original?
