Appearances

Donkey Kong Country

Though Winky's only playable appearance was in Donkey Kong Country, he was very helpful then. He, being a frog, had a great jumping ability, far surpassing the Kong's, and higher than any other Animal Buddy's jump. Winky also had the notable ability to be able to jump on a Zinger's head and defeat it. His jumping ability is usually used to reach bonus areas or to grab some bananas. He would later be replaced with Rattly the Rattlesnake in DKC2.

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest

His latest appearance was in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest's Monkey Museum. Here Winky was a background Easter Egg, though appears to be put to rest judging by how he does not move, and is on sale for $5. In the GBA remake he makes a cameo hopping around in the fight with Kudgel. Oddly, he is smaller than the Kongs.
