[edit] Appearances
[edit] Donkey Kong Country
Though Winky's only playable appearance was in Donkey Kong Country, he was very helpful then. He, being a frog, had a great jumping ability, far surpassing the Kong's, and higher than any other Animal Buddie's jump. Winky also had the notable ability to be able to jump on a Zinger's head and defeat it. His jumping ability is usually used to reach bonus areas or to grab some bananas. He would later be replaced with Rattly the Rattlesnake in DKC2.
[edit] Donkey Kong Country 2
His latest appearance was in Donkey Kong Country 2's Monkey Museum, but only in the SNES version. Here Winky was a background Easter Egg, though appears to be put to rest judging by how he does not move, and is on sale for $5.
