A new video has been released on the Play Nintendo channel exploring the personality of Donkey Kong, for the benefit of young players who may be new to the character.
The seven-minute special explores DK’s strength, style, bravery, mischievousness, sense of rhythm, and, of course, his intense love of bananas.
Gameplay footage from a variety of Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 games are used to demonstrate the simian superhero’s many characteristics, including Donkey Kong Bananza, Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, Mario Kart World, Super Mario Party Jamboree, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong.
Play Nintendo is an official Nintendo YouTube channel targeted at children and families. It features other character-focused videos like this one, as well as Let’s Plays, personality quizzes, DIY crafting videos, and more.
