DK: What are we gonna to do?
Eddie: Go for a Snowcone?
DK:

[aggames]

The yeti one could also be based off of the autoplay form when you fail a level too many times in donkey Kong country returns

[milknyte]

Purple DK reminds me of Bonzi Buddy lol

[Skynetbear]

Pretty sure the white variant is supposed to be the player helping White Donkey Kong from DK Returns

[KDAWG_TheGreat]

I'm gonna be honest the Donkey Kong show was amazing

[SpookyBoiGaming]

The white DK could probably be a nod to the computer Donkey Kong in Donkey Kong Country Returns, where if you die enough times, the game will ask if you want it to play the level for you and the white DK would be there instead of normal DK.

finally peace has been restored eddie the mean old yetie is REAL

[donkeykong]

the black alt is also a reference to Donkey Kong 94

[deionpehowdy]

Eddie The Mean Old Yeti's Design Was Also Used For Super Kong In Donkey Kong Country Returns. Which is what the costume could also resemble.

[TheFrenchFryGod]

I keep forgetting about the Donkey Kong county cartoon and I think that’s a good thing

[DOGBOUND]

Poor Donkey has to dye his whole fur before matches

[ToppSpeed]

So many obscure and neat references for smash's alternate costumes. Love these videos

[RStaRaptoR]

They should have made him more blue and more red. Dk64 had really cool colors. I remember.

[JakeJobs-zvug]

I called him broccoli DK and when ever I won with him I said *eat your vegetables*

[PUZZLER]

The yellow fur could also be a reference to Funky

[SlyFrye]

Odd that one of his costume colors could be based off of a character from a TV show as opposed to a character from one of the games. But interesting references for sure

[GojiBoiEarth]

For those saying that DK’s white fur is a reference to Super Kong, Brawl (which is where the costume debuted) came out in 2008 while DKCR came out 2 years late, meaning the yeti costume predates Super DK.

[StealthFNF]

Bro can make 80 shorts on costume references.

[JordanDS]

I find it highly unlikely that they referenced the DKC cartoon 😂

[surfingraichu]

Green is definitely based on the Grinch, my version of smash even comes with Jim Carrey voice lines.
