My Opinion: In SS the sapients are not animals at all, they’re People, just not Human People. They are -People- evolved from other “animals” just as we are from monkeys/apes/whatever. As they evolved, so did their lifespans until now, as People, they all age similarly. 🙂
Nintendo has also been inconsistent on whether Cranky is the present DK’s father or grandfather. And of course, while the original DK changed dramatically in 13 years, the newer one has been basically the same for 31 years.
Something always bugged me. Several characters from the games shown in the comics are obviously humans, including Mario and Pauline. Yet we don’t see Kade and co interact with any humans. What gives?
Elves are clearly derived from humans, tho. It’s a bigger jump to go from great ape to human than human to elf unless you have seen some *weird* elves. There’s gotta be some sort of old mythical creature in this universe that got morphed into humans in the present day, kind of like how almost all cultures have a ‘dragon’ in their mythos.
Okay so when does Donkey Kong qualify to be eligible for the Monsanto lawsuit?
Well considering Ape’s life spans it kinda of makes sense DK Sr would age faster into Kranky Kong.
In the SS-verse, seems like all animals age at the same rate.

Kade does know that apes age faster, right?
I’m pretty sure Cranky kong delt with Mario’s grandfather in the original Donky Kong game.

Humans are a thing made up for game purposes, I imagine. After all, ghosts aren’t real for most of the animals here, and they’re still around as boos.
interesting…
I’ve never interacted with an elf, but I’ve played one in many a video game.

Did not reply to the right thread.
Or, maybe humans are derived from elves? 🙂
