It could just be that Diddy's family was killed and he was adopted by the Kong family (or that Nintendo doesn't care about any of this making sense, like Mario and Baby Mario existing at the same time in the Mario Kart and Mario sports games).
That. :lol
I mean, let's face it, at times, Nintendo game plots are even more messed than the stuff that goes on in American comics. Even if we try and pass of the Mario Sports games as "non-canonical dream-matches", it's still quite messed up.
For example...
If the DK of today is truly DK Jr. all grown up...why was that not reflected in Yoshi's Island DS, where he basically just looks like a scaled down version of his adult form? Did they just completely forget about the Jr. design, or what? And if so, then where the hell IS DK Jr., provided that he's probably Current-day DK's father?
If Mario really does have his own Castle and island-territory that he owns (Mario Land 2), why is he often portrayed as living in a simplistic Mushroom Shack with Luigi in the RPG series and other stuff? He's obviously wealthy (collecting all those damn coins in various games gotta count for something!), and a hero at that, so why shouldn't he live more glamorously?
...and there's plenty more than that. But after awhile, it's kinda like the "shut up and eat your damn hotdog" argument. You may wonder what really goes on, but in the end, how concerned can you afford to be, when so many other things about the games don't make a lick of sense any way? :lol
