Donkey Kong Country
The current Donkey Kong (introduced in "Donkey Kong Country") was initially described as his grandson, with Cranky having relinquished his name to him. However, in "Donkey Kong 64", Cranky directly refers to the current Donkey Kong as his son in their first conversation. This was reverted to the original grandson relationship in subsequent games such as the Game Boy Advance versions of "Donkey Kong Country" and "", "Super Smash Bros. Brawl" and "Donkey Kong Country Returns".
