In 2005, a [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]] of the game was released for [[Game Boy Advance]], and in 2007/2008, the original version was ported to the [[Wii]]'s [[Virtual Console#Wii|Virtual Console]]. On November 25, 2012, for reasons unknown, ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' and its predecessors were delisted from the Wii Virtual Console,<ref>[http://gimmegimmegames.com/2012/11/nintendo-removing-all-donkey-kong-country-games-from-virtual-console/ Nintendo removing all ''Donkey Kong Country'' games from Virtual Console - Gimme Gimme Games]</ref> but on October 30, 2014, the games were relisted in Europe and Australia. Around the same time, the games were released for the [[Wii U]]'s [[Virtual Console#Wii U|Virtual Console]] in Europe and Australia, in Japan on November 26, 2014, and in the United States and Canada on February 26, 2015. For handhelds, ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' was ported exclusively to the [[Nintendo 3DS#New Nintendo 3DS/New Nintendo 3DS XL|New Nintendo 3DS]]'s [[Virtual Console#Nintendo 3DS|Virtual Console]] in May/June 2016. It was made available on [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online]] for the [[Nintendo Switch]] on December 18, 2020.

{{footnote|note|1|At the very start of the game itself, Dixie goes to Wrinkly's Save Cave. During the start of the game, neither Wrinkly nor Funky mention Donkey Kong and Diddy. During the first interaction with Funky, he does not mention for Dixie to be on the lookout for random items, nor does he mention the Brothers Bears. This information is found in the instruction booklet only.}}

|Cranky Kong is the original Donkey Kong from the arcade games. Unlike the previous two games, Cranky is not a supporting character but instead rivals Dixie or Kiddy in Swanky's Sideshow.

|Swanky runs a ball-throwing minigame at Swanky's Sideshow, where the Kongs' opponent is Cranky Kong.

|Wrinkly resides in a cave, titled Wrinkly's Save Cave, where she saves the Kongs' adventure progress and provides refuge for the rescued Banana Birds.

Throughout their adventure, Dixie and Kiddy come across several cabins, each having a [[Brothers Bear]]. Each world has a Brothers Bear, usually no more than one. Most Brothers Bears either are facing an issue, and ask the Kongs for their help, or they help them access a [[Banana Bird Cave]].

|Barnacle is a shell collector who lives in Lake Orangatanga. The Kongs can trade him a Shell for his Banana Bird.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Barter DKC3 alt.png]] [[File:Barter DKC3 sprite.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Björn's Chairlift]]s

|Bramble is a botanist found on the main Northern Kremisphere map, near Cotton-Top Cove. He is not happy about the air pollution caused from Mekanos' factories, but after defeating KAOS the first time, the factories are shut down. If the Kongs give Bramble a Flupperius Petallus Pongus, he gives them a Banana Bird.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Bristles DKC3.png]] [[File:DKC3 Bristles roll.png]]

|A spiky hedgehog enemy that appears in many levels. If Dixie or Kiddy touch a Bristles's spikes, they get injured. Because of this, the Kongs can only defeat Bristles by either using a barrel or a frontal roll attack, as doing one from behind injures the Kongs instead. Some Bristles roll, and as such are invulnerable to all non-barrel attacks.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Knik Knak DKC3 red.png]] [[File:Knik Knak DKC3 yellow.png]] [[File:DKC3 Knik-Knak red walk.png]]

|Knik-Knaks are common beetle-like enemies which are featured in two variations: red and yellow. The red Knik-Knaks are the most common, and are almost always found in midair, usually staying in a single position. The rarer yellow variety are only encountered on the ground.

|These are monkey enemies who poke their head out of the sides within hollow trees. Minkeys attack by trying to throw acorns at the Kongs. Along the way, the Kongs can hide behind [[Barrel Shield]]s, which protect them from the acorns. Minkeys cannot be defeated.

|colspan=2 style="text-align:center"|[[Barrel Shield Bust-Up]]

|Nids are spider-like creatures with a plank of wood on their back. They either jump up and down in place or in an arc formation. The Kongs can stand on a Nid's plank to reach higher areas. Unlike most enemies, Nids cannot hurt the Kongs, although they can sometimes bounce them into Buzzes in the air. Nids have two variations: purple and yellow; the yellow ones hop constantly, but the purple ones only start hopping when the Kongs are on their plank.  

|Underwater fish enemies who move between holes in the coral reef in unlimited numbers.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:DKC3 KAOS 1 attack.png]] [[File:DKC3 KAOS 1.5 attack.png]]

|KAOS is fought in a factory at the end of Mekanos. He attacks by exhausting flames to scorch the Kongs. Eventually, KAOS stops and spins blades around him. Dixie and Kiddy can use them as platforms to jump up them and onto KAOS's head. KAOS punches out his robotic arms to try and stop them from reaching his head. After enough hits, KAOS's head floats off his body, and he fights against the Kongs separately. Meanwhile, his head tries to blast the Kongs with a quick laser.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Barbos DKC3 sprite.png]] [[File:DKC3 Barbos squished.png]]

|Barbos is a giant Lurchin and the boss of Razor Ridge. The Kongs are transformed into Enguarde for the entire battle. Barbos attacks by sending out Lurchins at Enguarde. He must counterattack by stabbing the Lurchin into Barbos's shell, exposing its squished body, which Enguarde must then stab to deliver an attack. Barbos is also capable of firing [[missile shell]]s at Enguarde and shooting spikes in every direction.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:DKC3 KAOS 2 attack.png]] [[File:DKC3 KAOS 2.5 attack.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[KAOS|KAOS MK. II]]

|KAOS is fought a second time in Kastle Kaos, with different tactics and moves. KAOS no longer uses his blade attack, and he reveals a new head during this battle, which uses a bomb-launcher on the top. Instead of jumping on KAOS's head, Dixie and Kiddy must attack him by using barrels. Both phases go down after a single hit in this battle.

==Items==

''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' is filled with many different collectibles.

|These items replace the [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]]s from ''Donkey Kong Country 2''. Their main use is paying for items owned by the Brothers Bears and gaining access to Swanky's Sideshow.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Banana Bird DKC3.png]] [[File:DKC3 Banana Bird trapped.png]]

The game features several items that must be traded between the Brothers Bears in order for the Kongs to collect all of the [[Banana Bird]]s. They are required to trade if the Kongs want to complete their adventure completely. Note that some items are earned from defeating bosses and do not need to be traded with the bears. Below shows the items and descriptions on them, as well as what the Kongs should do with the objects.

!width=45%|Description

|A gift received by [[Blue]]. When Blue is given this gift, he decides he has no use for it and gives it to the Kongs to use. The bowling ball can be used as ammunition for [[Bazooka]]'s cannon, "[[Big Bessie]]," to get to the secret cave of [[Mekanos]].

|style="text-align:center"|[[Flupperius Petallus Pongus|Flower]]

|A specimen of "''Flupperius Petallus Pongus''," a rare flower wanted greatly by [[Bramble (character)|Bramble]]. After completing [[Razor Ridge]], this item appears near his cabin. The Kongs can take it and give it to the bear in exchange for a Banana Bird.

|This mirror, which was once owned by Cranky Kong's great grandfather, must be bought from [[Bazaar]] for fifty bear coins. Once the Kongs have it, they can to give it to [[Baffle]] to unscramble his message (which hints towards accessing Kaos Kore's secret cave), or [[Barter]] in exchange for a [[No.6 wrench]]. They can also take back the mirror from either bear for the other's use.

|The No.6 wrench is given to the Kongs by Barter in exchange for a mirror. It must be given to [[Björn]] so he can fix his chairlifts. Once they are fixed, a new secret cave is accessed.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:DKC3 Patch drop.png]] [[File:Patch DKC3.png]]

|The patch is earned after the Kongs defeat [[Arich]] in [[Kremwood Forest]]. Once obtained, it must be given to Funky Kong as he can make a [[Hover Craft]].

|A present for Blue. Blue's brother, [[Blizzard (character)|Blizzard]], who is unable to take the gift to him, gives the present for the Kongs to deliver. It contains a bowling ball.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:DKC3 ski.png]] [[File:Skis DKC3.png]]

|The pair of skis are earned once both [[KAOS]] and [[Squirt (boss)|Squirt]] are defeated. They must be given to Funky in order for him to make a [[Turbo Ski]].

 

 

|[[Squitter]] can create these as temporary platforms or projectiles.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:SteelKeg.png]] [[File:DKC3 Steel Barrel roll.png]] [[File:DKC3 Steel Barrel Knautilus.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]]

|Steel Barrels previously appeared in the original ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Unlike the regular barrels, Steel Barrels do not break if they hit a wall. The Kongs can ride a Steel Barrel if they jump on one as it is rolling. Steel Barrels are required to defeat Koins.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:TNT Barrel.png]] [[File:DKC2-3 TNT Barrel roll.png]]

|TNT Barrels are similar to normal barrels, however, they are explosive. If they are thrown into a sensitive wall, they can blast it away, creating an opening. They can also defeat powerful enemies like red Buzzes, Bazukas, and Kuff 'n' Klout.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Blast Barrel DKC2 sprite.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Blast Barrel|Auto-Fire Barrel]]

|These semi-common barrels shoot the Kongs in a particular direction after they jump inside.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Barrel Cannon DKC2 sprite.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Barrel Cannon]]s

|These barrels shoot the Kongs out after they jump inside and the player triggers it to fire.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Barrel Cannon.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Arrow Barrel|Blast Barrel]]

|These Auto-Fire Barrels shoot the Kongs upwards, or forwards if the barrel is turned. They are often found in levels taking place by a waterfall and are commonly needed to jump over Buzzes.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Bonus Barrel.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Bonus Barrel]]

|Two or three of these special barrels appear in every level, except for [[Rocket Rush (level)|Rocket Rush]], sending the Kongs to [[Bonus Level]]s. They are usually well hidden or hard to reach, due to the fact that their reward is so big. The Kongs also break out of these barrels once they exit the bonus.

|These barrels are similar to the arrowed Barrel Cannons, except that they disappear and reappear at various occasions. Sometimes, they appear in different positions, so if the Kongs jump in them at the wrong time, they can be shot into an enemy. These barrels only appear in the level [[Creepy Caverns]].

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Banana Bird Cave.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Secret cave]]s

|Each of these caves contain a Banana Bird. However, the only way to get the bird is to hit a series of crystals in the right order.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Bazaar's General Store DKC3.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Brothers Bear]] cabins

|There are several cabins in the game, one for each of the Brothers Bears. In them, the Kongs can talk to the bears and help them complete a trade to earn [[Banana Bird]]s.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Funky's Rentals DKC3.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Funky's Rentals]]

|This is where the Kongs can rent vehicles made by Funky Kong to travel through the Northern Kremisphere. He allows them to use his [[Motor Boat]] at the beginning of the game, but after the Kongs gather up special items for him, he is able to make a Hover Craft, a Turbo Ski, and a Gyrocopter for them to ride in.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Swanky's Sideshow DKC3.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Swanky's Sideshow]]

|This is where the Kongs can play a special ball tossing Bonus Game against Cranky for a few bear coins.

|style="text-align:center"|[[File:Wrinkly's Save Cave DKC3.png]]

|style="text-align:center"|[[Wrinkly's Save Cave]]

|This area is where the Kongs' game can be saved. One appears in each world, as well as in the overworld. Wrinkly is always found here, and she is either exercising, playing her [[Nintendo 64]], or sleeping.

The game features many levels in which the Kongs must travel through to complete the game. The Kongs have to get to the end of each level, excluding the secret levels in Krematoa, in order to meet Baron K. Roolenstein at Kastle Kaos and rescue [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]]. Every level, excluding boss stages and Rocket Rush, have at least two or three Bonus Levels in them, which are hidden throughout the levels.

*''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'': This is one of the games to which ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' is a sequel. It has many similar gameplay elements and items. Enguarde and Squawks are the only Animal Friends reappearing from this game. Steel Barrels and hidden item caches also return. The main theme music is an arrangement of this game's bonus stage theme.

*''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'': The alarm sound effect from [[Krack Shot Kroc|Krack-Shot Kroc]] is reused for [[Crocodile Isle (Donkey Kong 64)|Crocodile Isle]], the conveyor belts in the [[Jungle Japes]] mine when they are set to "low," and in the minigame [[Krazy Kong Klamor]] when the light is on. [[Kroc]] from that level also reappears in certain situations. Mill areas are also a part of [[Fungi Forest]]. [[Green banana]]s also return.

For the SNES version, [[David Wise]] composed the tracks "Dixie Beat", "Crazy Calypso", "Wrinkly's Save Cave", "Get Fit A-Go-Go", "Wrinkly 64", "Brothers Bear", "Bonus Time", "Bonus Win", and "Bonus Lose", while [[Eveline Novakovic]] did the rest.<ref>[[Leigh Loveday]], [http://web.archive.org/web/20060213091526/www.rareware.com/extra/scribes/scribes_content.html February 06, 2006 edition of Scribes].
