'''Bazukas''' are red [[Kremling]] enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They carry around a large bazooka cannon, which they are named after. They are the successor to [[Kannon]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. | |||
Bazukas have spiky crests on their head and their tail, which give them a dragon-like appearance, and a yellow belly. Bazukas shoot out either [[Barrel]]s, [[Steel Barrel]]s, or [[TNT Barrel]]s from their cannon. A red laser sight is on the top of their cannon, and it is used for aiming. | |||
==History== | |||
===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''=== | |||
In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Bazukas shoot out an indefinite number of either Barrels, Steel Barrels, and TNT Barrels. [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] often have to bounce on their profiles to get across gaps or to reach hidden areas and [[Bonus Barrel]]s. | |||
Bazukas first appear in the level [[Blazing Bazukas]], and they are the main enemy and feature of the level. In the [[Krematoa]] level [[Criss Kross Cliffs]], a Bazuka at the very bottom of the continuously blasts Steel Barrels upward. Dixie and Kiddy must bounce on the Steel Barrels to progress up into the level. Bazukas can only be defeated if Diddy or Dixie throw a TNT Barrel at them, as Bazukas' large cannon protects them from other attacks. | |||
In several levels, a Bazuka is required to defeat [[Koin]] for its [[DK Coin]]; as the Bazuka fires Steel Barrel at the Koin, the Kongs must go behind Koin for it to be hit from behind. | |||
In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], a Bazuka is categorized under the [[Kremling Kreeps]] category. | |||
In ''Donkey Kong Land III'', Bazukas | ===''Donkey Kong Land III''=== | ||
In ''Donkey Kong Land III'', Bazukas appear in all four factory levels: [[Karbine Kaos]], [[Bazuka Bombard]], [[Kuchuka Karnage]], and [[Barrel Boulevard]]. Like the previous game, Bazukas have another level named after them, Bazuka Bombard, despite only a few appearing in the level. Bazukas also appear in two jungle levels, [[Jungle Jeopardy]] and [[Tropical Tightropes]]. Unlike the previous game, Bazukas cannot be defeated because none of the levels have a nearby TNT Barrel for the Kongs to use on Bazuka. | |||
