The caller will then say "Donk-Dwonk" in the same rhythm, but after it is called, the rhythm will switch to pressing A to the syllables of the caller's "Deet-Deet-Doh", which will be a triplet, until the caller yells out "Deet-Deet-Doot", and the rhythm returns to the "Donk-Donk" pattern.

Timing Notes
- Hit: The player figure follows the rhythm in right time with the other two. The ship they are flying also bounces by a small amount.
- Barely: The player figure shakes after following the rhythm incorrectly. A barely counts as a miss.
- Miss: The figures gulp and start to slightly sweat when the rhythm isn't followed.

Trivia
- Donk-Donk is considered one of the strangest games in the franchise, due to its absurd appearance and lack of explanation. This is commented on in the game's North American description, which is unable to describe it, stating that it is "hard to explain".
- The characters of Donk-Donk are referred to as "Uh... these guys?" in the North American version of the credits and "The donk-donkers" in the European version.
- The endless game Lady Cupid appears to take place in the same environment as the ending of Donk-Donk.
- Both the English and Japanese names are onomatopoaeas.
- In the Japanese version, the primary vocal cue is "kon-kon," while in the English version, it's "donk-donk." This is due to the minigame's name in each version.
