Donkey Kong retconed it so is was Cranky Kong who was doing the kidnapping and (new) Donkey Kong has never been bad.

Then that would mean that Donkey Kong is actually Donkey Kong Jr.

Donkey Kong Jr is DK's dad, Cranky is the original and grandpa

Actually, Cranky Kong is Donkey Kong's grandfather, so Donkey Kong Jr. would be Donkey Kong's dad.

Nope. Theres like all kinds of evidence or whatever that apparently proves otherwise. I cant remember much. But I definitely remember hearing about this. I want to say it was like years ago...

It's not something that ambiguous, Cranky Kong straight says he's Donkey Kong's grandfather and was the one who did the kidnapping in Donkey Kong Country.

When they switched Donkey Kong from antagonist to protagonist they wanted to wipe all villainy from his record.

Bonus factoid: Donkey Kong Jr. is dead, he was killed by Popeye (of all people)

I think it was just a throwaway gag in Nintendo Power when Donkey Kong 3 came out, though

edit: I guess it would have had to been a gag, since he would later be in the first Mario Kart

A gorilla's lifespan isn't that long. They could easily have 3 generations before Mario has to retire.

Mario can hold a grudge for much longer than the lifetime of the typical Gamer. Unlike the typical Gamer, he is able to see the future, as well as the vast array of dreams the individual possesses.

Is Bowsette even real, like in a game, or is she just a mushroom induced hallucination? I'm not quite sure tbh.

I guess I assumed that, after the events of Donkey Kong Jr., they realized that they were at a stalemate and that neither of them was completely innocent, and slowly got over their hatred for each other to become at least acquaintances, if not friends. I know that since then, Donkey Kong has caused problems for Mario in at least the Mario vs. Donkey Kong games, but I assume that's just because Donkey Kong is a wild animal and can't always control himself. I think they've always made up at the end of those games.

Okay, after searching a little more, I see that at least one game suggests that if you ever see Donkey Kong with a tie, that's the Donkey Kong of the Donkey Kong Country games. If you see Donkey Kong without a tie, that's the Donkey Kong that will eventually become Cranky Kong. ("[Donkey Kong's] ancestor, the original Donkey Kong, wore no necktie.")

I think you also have to take into account neither Mario or Donkey Kong's stories or lore is serious, Bowser has destroyed the universe before and is still frenemies with Mario and Peach.

So if they were to put even new DK in a retro inspired game they don't really care.

Diddy is a monkey (I think he was based off a spider monkey). His girlfriend Dixie is a chimp. Chimps don't have tails.

Donkey Kong originally stole Pauline because Mario abused him. Mario proceeded to kidnap him and it was up to DK Junior to save him from Mario. Now DK Junior had a son and that's the Donkey Kong we're used to now. I think, officially, they basically just try their best to go their separate ways in ignorance of each other. After all they're both heroes and on the side of good even if they have history.
