Donkey Kong Land 3 added to Nintendo Switch Online

Yet another Donkey Kong game has been added to Nintendo Switch Online, and this time it’s Donkey Kong Land 3.

Donkey Kong Land 3 first released in 1997 on the Game Boy in North America and Europe. It later debuted on the Game Boy Color in 2000, but only in Japan. The version on Nintendo Switch Online depends on which app you use – Japan has the Game Boy Color version while the west has the Game Boy original.

Here’s an overview of the classic title:

Fame-and-fortune seekers have journeyed far and wide in search of the fabled Lost World. Eager to find it first, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong set off to discover its entrance, unaware that Baron K. Roolenstein and his Kremling Krew are hot in their tail! Meanwhile, Dixie Kong is left behind to babysit her younger cousin, Kiddy Kong. But that won’t stop her from answering the call of adventure! Help Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong through 36 Kremling-infested levels, each containing their own secret areas and bonus levels! While Dixie Kong’s Helicopter Spin is useful for hovering away from obstacles, Kiddy Kong’s Somersault allows you to roll over land and jump farther after rolling off ledges! Animal friends are back to help, and there are plenty of collectibles and items to find along the way. Help the adventuring duo be the first to uncover the entrance to the secret Lost World!
