Didn’t Kirby destroy entire planets or something just because he got woken up from a nap?

To be fair, Kirby is a literal eldritch god. So only destroying a few planets is still probably on the good side for him.

In Donkey Kong, he (Donkey Kong) kidnaps Pauline and Mario comes to save her. Then in Donkey Kong Jr. the old Donkey Kong (Cranky Kong in Donkey Kong Country) gets kidnapped my Mario and DKs son (Donkey Kong in Donkey Kong Country) has to save his father. Donkey Kong 3 looks like just some Donkey Kong (who knows which) rampaging and a dude saving his flowers.

In Country the Bananas get stolen, then in Country 2 K. Rool kidnaps DK, and Country 3 has some mind control or something, maybe kidnapping.

OG DK started it, but in Country it was all because of K. Rool.

Donkey and Diddy are kidnapped in DKC 3, that's why Dixie initially heads out alone before getting saddled with Kiddie by Funky.

I only played DKC 1 & 2, never played 3, so I just looked at the Wikipedia, and it said DK and Diddy were somehow "made" to fight Dixie and Kiddy. That's why I just assumed there was some kind of mind control going on.

I thought Country DK was the DK from Donkey Kong Jr. (so maybe Cranky's son) but who knows, maybe he's the son of DK Jr. or no relations at all.

Maybe Donkey Kong is just a title, and Country DK took it or won it from Cranky by finding more bananas or something.

Now that I think of it, in the DKC games, I don't recall anyone or anything being 'killed', enemies would just get knocked off the 2D plane you're on. They don't explode or vanish etc. like in SMB3 or ALttP.

Well the first boss of dkc2 definitely dies as he comes back as a ghost later. There's also tnt kremlins that explode on hit. And I think the snowman boss in dkc3 just straight up explodes. But yeah they definitely don't kill an army.
