In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Buzzes are the most common enemy, especially the green variant. They cannot be defeated by [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] directly, but can be defeated by most other attacks, such as throwing a [[barrel]] at them or attacking them with an [[Animal Friend]]. Red Buzzes can usually only be defeated by a TNT Barrel or an [[Invincibility Barrel]], although in [[Krack Shot Kroc]], a red Buzz gets defeated if hit by one of [[Kroc]]'s [[fireball]]s. In the final level [[Rocket Rush (level)|Rocket Rush]], the [[Rocket Barrel]]'s exhaust flames can defeat Red Buzzes, which turn black when defeated, although in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, this does not defeat them.

In the canceled 2003 ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot (2003)|Diddy Kong Pilot]]'', both purple and blue Buzzes appear as homing weapons that racers can use. The original red and green Buzzes do not appear in the game.
In the 2003 iteration of ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot (2003)|Diddy Kong Pilot]]'', both purple and blue Buzzes appear as homing weapons that racers can use. The original red and green Buzzes do not appear in the game.


Purple Buzzes home in on the nearest opponent (similar to [[Red Shell]]s in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series). They appear in quantities of either one, two, or three. A Blue Buzz instead homes on the racer in first place (similar to the [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shells]] in the ''Mario Kart'' series), and it can only be obtained by racers in lower places. When either type crashes into a racer, they briefly fall down and bounce onto the ground. The player can dodge a Buzz by either using a [[Zinger]] or by performing a loop by pressing {{button|GBA|L}} and Up on the {{button|GBA|pad}}.
