Although "Dong Qigang: All-Opening" designed a new image for Dong Qigang, Nintendo still expressed his respect for the classic image of the Rare Studio version.

When Nintendo released "Dong Qigang: All-in-one", it was obviously trying to get rid of the shadow of Rare's "Super Dong Qigang" era and start a new chapter.Even though Dong Qigang's appearance is completely refreshed, this work seems to be full of deep feelings for the classic series of Rare Studios.

Since the recent face-to-face meeting, foreign media have discovered a large number of elements of "Super Dong Qigang", and a large number of old characters have returned one after another, and even the elders are wearing classic sports shoes with coffee cans on their feet.But that's not all. The latest discovery of Easter eggs officially incorporates Rare Studio's most iconic creativity into the official history of Donkey Kong.
As shown in the tweet, Old King Kong called Donkey Kong the "so-called boss", which obviously paid tribute to the classic rap "DK Rap" of "Dong Qigang 64".This Easter egg means that this rap song and its MV have officially become an official historical part of the Donkey Kong Universe - this setting is really confusing.

Although Nintendo has made it clear that official history is not the focus of this work and that Easter eggs may be designed only for fun, it does imply that the story of "The Legend of the Bounty" takes place after "Dong Qigang 64".Of course, Pauline's young image makes the timeline more confusing, but at least it completely ruled out that this game is a prequel.
