*Unlike in most ''Donkey Kong'' games and ''Mario'' spin-offs, where Donkey Kong has a cartoonish voice, voiced by {{s|mariowiki|Takashi Nagasako}}, the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series does not give him a voice actor, and has him using more realistic gorilla grunts. This also applies to [[Bowser]], with realistic and monstrous roars instead of {{s|mariowiki|Kenneth W. James}}, Bowser's current voice actor in most ''Mario'' games, [[Diddy Kong]], who uses realistic chimpanzee screeches instead of using voice clips from his current voice actor {{s|mariowiki|Katsumi Suzuki}}, and [[King K. Rool]], who uses realistic crocodile grunts instead of his current voice actor in the ''Donkey Kong'' games, {{s|mariowiki|Toshihide Tsuchiya}}. | *Unlike in most ''Donkey Kong'' games and ''Mario'' spin-offs, where Donkey Kong has a cartoonish voice, voiced by {{s|mariowiki|Takashi Nagasako}}, the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series does not give him a voice actor, and has him using more realistic gorilla grunts.

**Not counting Samus, Donkey Kong is the only "Original 8" member to not have his voice actor voicing him. | |||
*Donkey Kong is the only character in the series who can walk at a normal speed when carrying a heavy item such as a [[Crate]] or [[Barrel]]; he also is the only character who can jump and fall while doing so. This originates from his ability to easily carry and throw barrels from ''{{s|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country}}''. | *Donkey Kong is the only character in the series who can walk at a normal speed when carrying a heavy item such as a [[Crate]] or [[Barrel]]; he also is the only character who can jump and fall while doing so.
