Space In the AU the Kongs are a species of apes that age slower than humans. This will be vital to help solve some well-known continuity problems on the DK timeline. 'Donkey Kong' is kind of like a nobility title that is passed down from generation to generation, and those granted with this title act as protector of both the jungle and the Kong's Banana Hoard. DK III is the grandson of Cranky (the original DK from the arcade) and son of Funky Kong (aka: DK Junior going through a midlife crisis).
Nintendo, Microsoft/Rare Inspired by Domix's Mario AU. NOTE: I've decided to create an AU similar to the one Domix made, except for the Donkey Kong saga. I still haven't come up with a definitive name for this AU, but the one I've thought of so far is Donkey Kong: Continental Klash.
