History[edit]
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat[edit]
It has been requested that this section be rewritten and expanded to include more information. Reason: gameplay details on Ninja Kong's battle
Ninja Kong is the ruler of the Durian Kingdom, which is the twelfth kingdom Donkey Kong ventures through. He is one of the most physically powerful of all Donkey Kong's enemies, making the battle against him more difficult than usual. Nevertheless, Donkey Kong still manages to defeat him and goes on to battle the evil Cactus King.
Ninja Kong later appears at the game's ending ceremony where he, along with the other Kong bosses, honors Donkey Kong's victory over the Ghastly King.
The in-game files refer to the character as "Miyamoto," in reference to Miyamoto Musashi, a wandering samurai warrior during the era of Japan's warring states.[1]
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Ninja Kong appears as a Novice-class primary spirit.
