Donkey Kong Land III

Donkey Kong Land III (or Donkey Kong Land 3) was the third and final entry in the Donkey Kong Land trilogy of games for the original Game Boy. Like its predecessors, it was a follow-up to the Donkey Kong Country games for the Super Nintendo, in this case Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Like the other games in the Donkey Kong Land series, Donkey Kong Land III was enhanced for the Super Game Boy and was packaged with a yellow cartridge.

Version Differences
When this game was ported to Game Boy Color in Japan, there were some changes made to the game, most of which are graphical changes. Unlike many other ports, such as the Game Boy Advance ports of the Donkey Kong Country games, there were very few changes made in comparison.
 * The game is now exclusively for the Game Boy Color (therefore, it isn't playable on a Game Boy or Super Game Boy; to make this further known the cartridge is a transparent Game Boy Color cartridge). As a result, it is now in full color, as opposed to the monochrome color that would be seen on a Super Game Boy.
 * The game is in Japanese instead of English.
 * The splash screen and title screen are slightly redesigned.
 * The world maps are no longer animated: water is now stagnant, Wrinkly Refuge and Sheepy Shop no longer have lights flashing inside, mills don't turn anymore, and smoke stays still.
 * When there is text on screen, the text shows up on the screen one character at a time like a typewriter, as opposed to the entire text showing up instantly.
 * In the Time Attack screen, your most recent time is no longer displayed.
 * Bear has only one frame now.
 * Due to the game being on a Game Boy Color, there is less lag, which is noticeable in a few cases, such as in Clifftop Critters. The lack of lag eliminates possibilities for unfair deaths where the screen couldn't keep up before if the player fell down with many sprites on the screen.

Trivia

 * A Game Boy Color version of the game was released in Japan as "Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong and Dixie Kong" (Dinky Kong is Kiddy Kong's name in Japan). For unknown reasons, it was not released outside of Japan.
 * Initially, Donkey Kong Land III had a subtitle called "The Race Against Time". Prior to release, the subtitle was removed, presumably to allow the game to fit in better with the other Donkey Kong Land games, which (unlike the SNES games) have no subtitles.
 * Donkey Kong Land III is the only Rare Donkey Kong game in which Donkey Kong does not appear.
 * The game's soundtrack consists of 8-bit re-orchestrations of the music from Donkey Kong Country 3. However, the tracks "Frosty Frolics" and "Pokey Pipes" do not appear; the snow and pipe levels use "Cascade Capers" and "Cavern Caprice" instead, respectively. In addition, "Rocket Run" is programmed into the game; however, it is unused and can only be accessed by ROM hacking.
 * Several elements from Donkey Kong Land III were later used for the Game Boy Advance port of Donkey Kong Country 3, such as the DK coin automatically being collected when defeating Koin.
 * In Wrinkly Kong's speech, "Kremlings" was misspelled as "Kremlins".
