Did I enjoy myself? Read on, and you might find out! Well, Donkey Kong Country 3 got added to the SNES emulator just in time for Christmas, so I sat down over the holiday period and finally worked my way to the main boss for the first time ever. However, Nintendo has recently been adding each of the DKC games to its Super Nintendo emulator on the Switch, so I made the decision that if Donkey Kong Country 3 was ever added that I’d sit down and take the time to give it a proper playthrough to see if Young Mike had been out to lunch all those years ago when he decided to give the game a miss. For whatever reason the game just never captured my imagination, and as this was back when I was still in school and didn’t have a job, I decided not to pester my parents for it and save that pestering power for other games I liked the look of. However, despite my love for the first two games in the series, I never really took the time to play Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong’s Double Trouble! back in the day.

I’ve gone into detail in the past here on Gaming Respawn for my love of the first two Donkey Kong Country games, with Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Quest still currently holding the mantle of being my favourite video game ever.
