'''''Donkey Kong IV''''' is a rumored final title in the original ''Donkey Kong'' series. The game is stated to have only been test-marketed in arcades, never getting a full release. It was only ever reported in issue #13 of {{wp|Mean Machines}} magazine (October 1991), and was possibly the result of a misconception or confusion for another game (a likely candidate being Ocean's ''{{wp|Kong Strikes Back!}}'').<ref>"Finally, in 1984 came Donkey Kong IV, a return to the traditional platform and ladders action of the original [...] During its testing period is wasn't deemed sophisticated enough to wow punters and the machine never made mass circulation." https://twitter.com/retrogamegeeks/status/859415398772596736</ref> | '''''Donkey Kong IV''''' is a rumored final title in the original ''Donkey Kong'' series.

According to Rare employee Paul Rahme, it was internally suggested at Rare to make a new ''Donkey Kong Country'' game for the [[Nintendo DS]], tentatively named '''''Donkey Kong Country 4''''', as remaking the trilogy for the [[Game Boy Advance]] gave the developers experience and a good basis for making a sequel. The pitch ended up not getting much traction internally and was dropped.<ref>[http://www.dkvine.com/?p=1654 DK Vine: Donkey Kong Country 4: Here Comes [REDACTED PUN<nowiki>]</nowiki>!]</ref><ref>[http://www.dkvine.com/features/stamped_dkcgba.html DK Vine: The Donkey Kong Country GBA Trilogy]</ref> | According to Rare employee Paul Rahme, it was internally suggested at Rare to make a new ''Donkey Kong Country'' game for the [[Nintendo DS]], tentatively named '''''Donkey Kong Country 4''''', as remaking the trilogy for the [[Game Boy Advance]] gave the developers experience and a good basis for making a sequel.
