Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Donkey Kong Country series goes out in style!
I love the DKC series and this is one of my favorite games for the SNES.

Pros:

Eight new worlds to make your way through
Fun mini games
Outstanding graphics
New challenges such as 85 bonus coins and 41 DK coins to collect
Interesting game play as well as an array of new villains

Cons:

The only con I can think of is that they replaced Rambi with Ellie (an annoying elephant).

This game is great and it is definitely worth picking up.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Still a thrill
DKC3 was the last installment of Rareware's monkey series for the SNES, and was basically the game to get your child for Christmas of '96 if you didn't plan on tracking down the then-newly-released Nintendo 64.

Overall, DCK3 is a solid platformer game. It suffers in reviews because it lacks the originality of the first and the huge gameplay leaps of the second, but nothing about this title is remotely buggy or broken. Lots of levels and environments to traverse, and Rare included some interesting scenarios this time around that mix up the normal 'run and jump' gameplay (reversed controls, riding a rocket that needs constant refueling, dodge lightning, etc). There are memorable boss fights and an overworld filled with secrets that is explored through upgradable vehicles. There's even a family of bears scattered across the world that will help you if locate the right items for them.

Graphics are as sharp as the first two installments, and the music has a catchy, laid back tropical flavour (also seen in the brighter design of the enemies). The only nitpicks are the lack of story (Rare poked fun at this in the first two games, here they just don't try) and the character selection. It's odd that the series is called "Donkey Kong Country" and Donkey and Diddy are reduced to mere cameos here. Kiddy Kong brings back the heavy/light dynamic of the first game, but overall Dixie is still more useful and maneuverable. In the end though, this is a wonderful platformer that holds up well by today's standards. If you've still got an SNES, it's worth tracking down a copy.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - First Donkey, Then Diddy now Dixie & A baby....
Now it's up to dixie kong to save the Kongs and taging along is her baby Brother. Well you would think alot of bad stuff but having him around actually helps he makes up in strenght but not speed. I think he is a pretty good character/. This was just as good as the first two and the animal friends are pretty sweet. And if you really want to beat the game you have to collect all of the bananna birds. This game still rocks


if you liked this game Check out DKC DKC 2 and the DKC 1, 2, 3 Version of the games for GBA.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Game of the Banana Bird
I remember playing this game back in the day... of course I started with the first two, which I own and unfortunately I cannot say I own this one, but my friends and I used to be half obsessed with saving these banana birds and going to see them all with (I forgot her name, the Grandma monkey). It was our motivation to play, I also remember getting a hovercraft from Funky, that was fun to use. If I'm recalling correctly, it was the easiest of the three games to beat, we did it by renting it successively instead of buying it, but that's my point, we rented it sooooo much we SHOULD have bought it and now I sincerely wish I had. I had fun playing this game and isn't that all anyone is really looking for?


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - it would be better If Nintendo Rerelease this Game for GBA!
Since Nintendo already rereleased the Other DKC Games It would be better if nintendo Put this in a GBA Port. Plus I do have this game for the SNES along with the other ones but The Super NES is Getting old and I would prefer if Nintendo Rerelease this game for the GBA!
