While the name of this stage comes from the first world of ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong 64}}'', the stage combines elements from several games in the ''Donkey Kong'' series.
While the name of this stage comes from the first world of ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong 64}}'', the majority of the features in this stage are based on the various jungle themed levels of ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country}}''.  


In ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country}}'', {{s|mariowiki|Cranky's Cabin}} is where {{s|mariowiki|Cranky Kong}} gives advice to the player while sitting in his rocking chair. In ''Donkey Kong 64'', Cranky Kong no longer gives advice, but he is now a scientist who gives the Kongs potions granting powers to proceed through the game. In this stage, Cranky's Cabin is in the background of the middle platform and is based on its appearance in ''Donkey Kong Country''; however, the roof is made of wood instead of sheets of ribbed metal. Cranky Kong appeares as a silhouette inside his cabin, sometimes sitting in his rocking chair. An Erlenmeyer flask and test tubes filled with chemicals can also be seen in the window, alluding to Cranky's scientific instruments from ''Donkey Kong 64''.

The jungle sunset visual theming of the stage resembles both a piece of official artwork of Cranky's Cabin from ''Donkey Kong Country'', as well as one of that game's levels, {{s|mariowiki|Orang-utan Gang}}. A similar aesthetic had been previously used in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' for the ''Donkey Kong'' stage {{SSB|Kongo Jungle}}.

The stage's main element, the wooden walkway and the river, could've been inspired by the Stilt levels from ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble'', except the river flows a lot faster than it originally did in that game.

The stage's main foreground elements, the wooden walkway and the river, also share some resemblance to some levels from ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble'' which feature wooden platforms over bodies of water. The high speed of the flowing water in the ''Smash'' stage, however, is original.


One of the most common enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country'' are {{s|mariowiki|Klaptrap}}s, particularly blue ones with yellow stripes on their backs, such as the ones seen in this stage. Barrels are recurring objects in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' series,  with a building made out of a giant barrel seen on the west side of the stage. In the background near the sunset, a flock of [[mariowiki:Necky|Neckies]], a common enemy from ''Donkey Kong Country'', sometimes fly across the horizon.
