|The second installment in the ''Donkey Kong Land'' series is ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', released for the Game Boy in 1996. It was considerably closer in design to its 16-bit counterpart than ''Donkey Kong Land'' had been, featuring the same level names, enemies, music, and characters as ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and is commonly mistaken for a handheld port of the 16-bit game in consequence (however, this is untrue). Although the two games run on the same engine and have the same areas, the layouts on each of the levels are new. Further, the consequences of the technical limitations of the Game Boy meant that some of the more complex enemies, such as [[Kackle]]s, did not appear, and the [[team up]] move introduced in ''Donkey Kong Country 2'' is absent. | |The second installment in the ''Donkey Kong Land'' series is ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', released for the Game Boy in 1996.
