Yo! I'm pretty sure Ganon's white alt is actually based on the ghost Darmani from Majora's Mask (https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/zelda/images/5/52/Darmani.png/revision/latest?cb=20110105235415) based on the white/blue coloration and purple jewelry. {{unsigned|Meeper12346|15:43, June 26, 2019 (EDT)}}

:I can see it, but at the same time, Darmani is definitely more white than purple and blue - Ganondorf is distinctly all three, instead of slightly colored white.

My apologies for reigniting this conversation, but I would also agree that the white color scheme resembles the Super Kong enough to warrant a mention. It's not uncommon for us to mention several potential inspirations for a costume (see: 2 for blue Bowser, 3 for white DK, and 5 for red Joker.) We shouldn't suddenly start shying away from convention now. --[[User:Pacack|Pacack]] ([[User talk:Pacack|talk]]) 11:26, October 29, 2019 (EDT)

== Donkey Kong's Black Costume ==
I was looking at the [[Alternate_costume_(SSB)#Donkey_Kong|alternate costume page for SSB64]], and I noticed that Donkey Kong's black costume had a plausible reference included that is inexplicably absent on this page. The costume closely resembles [https://www.mariowiki.com/File:DKGBDonkeyKongSprite.png DK's sprite] in Donkey Kong for the Game Boy.
I would recommend the following wording: "Donkey Kong's fur and skin resemble his in-game sprite from Donkey Kong for Game Boy, and the tie is reminiscent of his appearance in Donkey Kong Country's Two-Player Contest Mode. Also resembles a gorilla."
Alternatively, I would be fine with removing the line that the recolor resembles a gorilla entirely, as we have solid in-game references without looking to the real world for inspiration. --[[User:Pacack|Pacack]] ([[User talk:Pacack|talk]]) 12:16, October 29, 2019 (EDT)
