Would it be strange to add other ''Donkey Kong'' games/series prominently featuring a good chunk of characters and settings originating from the ''Donkey Kong Country'' series into the "Related games" section? I'm talking about the [[DK (series)|''DK'' series]], the [[Donkey Konga (series)|''Donkey Konga'' series]], ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'', things like that where they're obviously meant to take place in the ''Country'' continuity. I am ''not'' referring to ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' (which only has [[Diddy]] and [[Krunch]] to tie it to the other games, and iirc wasn't even conceived as a Diddy Kong game originally), nor am I referring to the Mario sports games where they randomly featured a bunch of DKC characters for some reason.

===Potentially consider the Donkey Konga series and Barrel Blast as related to DKC.=== | |||
So the DK series is considered related to the DKC series, but there's others that could be considered related: Donkey Konga and Barrel Blast. 4/26/2024 EDIT: Ok, Hewer brought up Jungle Beat, so I'm adding that in too. Too all opposition. I'm not saying we should include the whole franchise as related, just the ones brought up 2 sections above this one. | |||

====The Donkey Konga series is related to DKC==== | |||
====Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast is related to DKC==== | |||
====Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat is related to DKC==== | |||
====Only BB & JB are related==== | |||
====Only BB & the Donkey Konga series are related==== | |||
====Only JB & the Donkey Konga series are related==== | |||
====All 3 are related==== | |||
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} Per proposal. | |||
#[[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) - I mean, I wanted to before, and I'm generally more lenient on this kind of thing. I think this is more reasonable than say, ''Diddy Kong Racing''. | |||
====Alternatively, spilt DKC(franchise) ==== | |||
#{{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} 2nd choice. | |||
====Do nothing==== | |||
#{{User|Hewer}} This is getting much too tenuous, we may as well include the whole Donkey Kong franchise as related at that point. And if we're not including Jungle Beat, including these games that aren't even the same genre makes no sense. | |||
#{{User|DrippingYellow}} The ''Donkey Kong'' franchise page lists mainly characters originating from the ''Donkey Kong Country'' series. It follows that characters from DKC are seen as representatives of DK's world in general, rather than merely the DKC games, so simply having these characters is not reason enough to be related to DKC. The best comparison I can think of would be if we were to add the ''[[Mario Kart]]'' series as related to the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series simply for featuring characters that originated from these games. | |||
#{{user|MegaBowser64}} Per all of yall (collectively) | |||
#{{User|Pizza Master}} Per Hewer. | |||
#{{User|Power Flotzo}} Per all. | |||
#{{User|Archivist Toadette}} This is really stretching it. | |||
====Comments==== | |||
{{@|Hewer}} You WANT me to have that as an option? Just making sure. [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 13:55, April 25, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:No, I was bringing it up as a bad thing that we shouldn't do. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 16:11, April 25, 2024 (EDT) | |||
::No, the Jungle Beat part. [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 17:01, April 25, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:::I don't feel that strongly about including Jungle Beat but I'm leaning towards no based on what was brought up last time about how the developers specifically wanted to differentiate it from DKC. My point in bringing it up was that, given we decided against including it in the previous proposal, it would make no sense to then include these other games that aren't even platformers. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 09:29, April 26, 2024 (EDT) | |||
::::Updated again. [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 10:01, April 26, 2024 (EDT) | |||
Look, you all want me to cancel this? [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 20:34, April 25, 2024 (EDT) | |||
Ok, I updated this, everyone please have a look at it. [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 08:18, April 26, 2024 (EDT) | |||
{{@|Doc von Schmeltwick}} I perfectly agree with you, plus adding Diddy Kong Racing would be stupid. [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 13:50, April 26, 2024 (EDT) | |||
Ok, can an admin please stop this proposal? The opposition clearly doesn't understand, and I can't deal with this anymore. [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 19:26, May 4, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:It's not that we don't understand, we just don't agree. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 07:42, May 6, 2024 (EDT) | |||
::?? Well, {{@|DrippingYellow}} DID suggest Donkey Konga and Barrel Blast, so... just please cancel this and let DrippingYellow deal with this himself. <small><small><small>Well, there goes me trying to help someone.</small></small></small> [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 08:32, May 6, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:::What? DrippingYellow was only considering if the games could potentially be added, people can change their minds. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 12:03, May 6, 2024 (EDT) | |||
::::Then end the proposal! I changed my mind about it! [[User:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)]] ([[User talk:SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)|talk]]) 08:37, May 7, 2024 (EDT) | |||
