*<u>'''Instruction booklet bio from Cranky Kong'''</u> (page 9): ''Yep, you read it right, sonny! It’s Professor Cranky now, and you’d better show your elders some respect, as I’m your only hope in defeating those rancid reptiles. My powerful potions will give you abilities you’ve never dreamed of and certainly don’t deserve, assuming of course you can afford my modest asking fee. Now don’t you go asking me for a potion of gameplay, as even my genius can’t rescue this game from its rightful destiny in the bargain bin.'' | |||
*<u>'''Nintendo Player's Guide '''</u> (page 6): ''If you looked up the word "curmudgeon" in the dictionary, it would show a picture of Cranky Kong. The old geezer is just as rude and abusive as ever. He's willing to help his five Kong relations with special potions that give them the moves they'll need to complete the game, but he will do so only if he can make a profit, which he does. Cranky's Lab pops up in every world just when you think you won't have to see him ever again. If you collect 15 Banana Medals and give them to Cranky, he'll give you a chance to win a Rareware Coin.'' | |||
*<u>'''Prima Official Game Guide'''</u> (page 13): ''Cranky is Donkey kong's dad, and he's not too happy about it. Although he complains almost constantly, Cranky also help the Kongs by providing potions-for a price, of course. Each potion gives the Kong who drinks it an ability that ape needs. Visit Cranky when you find his Lab. It shows up on every level, so suffer through his gruff abuse and see it he has a new potion to offer:'' | |||
*<u>'''German website'''</u>: ''A sharp tongue, lots of hair and loose teeth characterize the video game veteran Cranky Kong. Even if he seldom has anything good to say about his "good for nothing" [[Donkey Kong|son]], as he calls him, he still supports Donkey and his friends in their exciting adventures with various potions from his laboratory. These wonders from the research lab help the Kongs to turn into true super apes! Whether it's a rocket back-pack, invulnerability, increased speed or becoming the size of a dwarf or a giant - Cranky is just the right one for the purposes of the ape clan. Since one has to pay a price for these helpful abilities, however, it is necessary to have sufficient banana coins on hand when calling on the brightest scientist of the primate world.''" | |||
*<u>'''Japanese website'''</u>: {{hover|業務用『ドンキーコング』にてデビューしたカレは、マリオにペットとして買われていたゴリラという設定。その愛敬のある、どこか間の抜けたルックスがみんなに愛され、その後いろんなゲームに主役、あるいはゲストとして出演した。1994年に発売された『ドンキーコング』(ゲームボーイ)を最後に、孫に“ドンキーコング”の名を譲り渡す。その後はクランキーという名前で、コングファミリーの長老として慕われている。小言が多いとのウワサ……。|The king of the Kremling army, who is always the enemy of Donkey Kong and his friends.
