- “GET OUT!”
- —Krosshair, Donkey Kong 64
Krosshair (also known as Krac-Shot Kroc) is a rare, unseen enemy first encountered in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!.
Krosshair appears only in one level in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! called "Krack Shot Kroc". In this level, an aiming cursor, manned by Krosshair will stalk Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong (who are transformed into Squitter the Spider) throughout a factory trying to blast them with large fireballs. Though Krosshair is quite precise in its firing, it can be tricked into blasting the various enemies found throughout the level.
The "Destroy Them All" minigame in "Krackshot Kroc" allows the player to control Krosshair's crosshair and use it to blast several Re-Koils and Buzzes to beat the minigame.
Krosshair reappears in Donkey Kong 64. In this game, Krosshair first appears in the area Angry Aztec in the Five Doored Temple. Whenever a Kong obtains a Golden Banana in the temple, Krosshair's cursor will appear and a menacing voice will yell "Get out!". If a Kong fails to get out of the temple in time, they will be blasted by Krosshair and either lose health or be defeated. Krosshair later appears in the Donkey Kong 64 areas Creepy Castle and Crystal Caves, inside several of the area's cabins and lodges.
Since Krosshair is never actually seen, it is unknown if it is one weapon-wielding character or several. It is also unknown if Krosshair is even a living being. However, a render of Krosshair's possible appearance appears in 89th issues of Nintendo Power. Here, it appears to be rotor blade-propelled robot with single, red glowing eye carrying a cannon which looks like the one wielded by Bazuka.
