Clearly part of what makes this funny is that Donkey Kong lore is one of the most absurd types of things to even know about. But I started to wonder if it really was a thing.

Did you know that Cranky Kong is actually the original arcade Donkey Kong? Donkey Kong Jr. is his son, and then the current Donkey Kong we all know is the son of Donkey Kong Jr., making him Donkey Kong III.

holy moly

Uh, yeah, I thought that was all common knowledge. It's explained in the Donkey Kong Country games. Cranky is all the time talking about the "good old days" and he's referring to the original arcade game starring him.

I don't remember that at all. I must have been ignoring it as old senile rambling.

I believe it is pretty common. Even I know it and I don't know hardly anything of his lore/backstory.
