Trivia
- Prior to the 1.1.0 update, Dixie Kong (as well as the Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong spirit) was ordered before Swanky Kong and Wrinkly Kong.
- The Donkey Kong & Bongos' game of origin is listed as "Donkey Kong Jungle Beat", despite the artwork and specific pairing actually coming from the Donkey Konga series.
- Kiddy is the only member of the Kong Family who doesn't have his own Spirit.
