Donkey Kong, also known as Ambassador Kong is a space invader from the planet Nintenduu 64. He invades Earth with Lrrr and other characters. His loincloth is filthy. He fights Mario after he attacks Richard M. Nixon's Head using his trademark barrel throwing move.

[edit] Trivia

• He is based on the Nintendo character, Donkey Kong, and some of his appearances show him in this more standard Nintendo form.
  • However, his fight with Mario in Anthology of Interest II may suggest that he is more based on Cranky Kong, Donkey's grandfather as he was the one who had the fight with Mario in the games.
• Monkey Fracas Jr., a game seen being played by Fry in Panucci's Pizza, has a character very similar to DK in.
• In A Bicyclops Built for Two, there is a DK lookalike seen.
• In Bender's Game, Bender pounds his chest in a very similar way to DK.

• Space Pilot 3000 (lookalike in game Monkey Fracas Jr.)
• Anthology Of Interest II (First appearance)
• A Bicyclops Built for Two (lookalike)
