Personally, I found Dixie and Kiddy to be wonderful and unique fill-ins that have a special place in fans’ hearts.įollowing up on the very clear pirate theme from the second game, fans were left wondering what exactly was the subject matter behind this concluding title. Not having the ability to play as Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong in any capacity made for some disinterest in the playable apes. The themes of the game and the character choices were what caused confusion. It was still considered a great platform game, though, one which stayed true to the formula perfected in the first two outings. The title that completed the beloved trifecta is remembered with a mixed reputation (and is often considered the forgotten child of the trilogy, perhaps owing to its arrival so late in the SNES lifecycle). Nintendo released Donkey Kong Country 3 onto their Switch Online platform at the end of 2020, allowing gamers to complete the DKC trilogy on their new hardware.
