While the graphics are beautiful and some of the gameplay new, there isn't much here that you haven't already seen. Some of the levels were quite innovative and fun, yet others were just more of what was in the second game in the series. While this game is great, the second is vastly superior in quality and originality, and I would recomend you play that first.

After playing the first two games, I was actually disapointed with this game. At first it was good. But some of the levels and secrets that you unlock were just too much. I like that there are more things to do, but there is too much. You have to collect all the Banana Birds, and to do that you need all the DK coins, and to do that you need to complete the lost world, and to do that you need all the bonus coins! There is so much to do in this game, I was almost shocked that it wasn't an RPG after I'd gotten 103% rating. So much to do, and you need a large effort to do it. They say DKC2 is the longest, well that's not true. Everything you do in this game connects. I was also feeling like I was playing through DKC2 all over again. It was the same basic thing. Only rescuing Diddy and Donkey this time around. Kiddy Kong wasn't a great character to add onto this to me. He couldn't do anything, and I found myself always needing Dixie to get things. It had changed so much from the first two with all the stuff you needed to do to beat the game entirely. There were two different endings, but they were both kinda sad. The music was also pretty bad. I found myself anxious to finish the level. Not the best of games, and not the worst. Though at some points I was kinda bored. But it was more difficult than the first two. I'll grant it that. If you enjoyed the first two, get this one. If not....then don't waste your time.

I think they could of made this way better. I definitly like the other two better. I think the game itself is fine, but it gets rather dull. You have to collect all the gold coins; every single one!! Boring!! But It is not as bad as some...
Not as good as I thought

They should've made this game like the 2 before it. They just made it too complex and un donkey kong ya know what i mean?
Its ok at first, but it gets boring too fast.
( at least it's not nearly as bad as DK64 )
it would be better If Nintendo Rerelease this Game for GBA!

Since Nintendo already rereleased the Other DKC Games It would be better if nintendo Put this in a GBA Port. Plus I do have this game for the SNES along with the other ones but The Super NES is Getting old and I would prefer if Nintendo Rerelease this game for the GBA!

There's nothing technically wrong with DKC3:DK'sDT. I mean, it's a great platformer, but it has a tendancy to seem more like a chore than actual fun. Dixie Kong returns front-and-center from her co-starring role in Diddy's Kong Quest, and nothing's changed about her. That's good news because she can still whack enemies with her hair and glide like a helicopter. That's bad news because she can't take-out some bigger enemies, so she needs the help of her overweight brat, Kiddy Kong.
First Donkey, Then Diddy now Dixie & A baby....

Now it's up to dixie kong to save the Kongs and taging along is her baby Brother. Well you would think alot of bad stuff but having him around actually helps he makes up in strenght but not speed. I think he is a pretty good character/. This was just as good as the first two and the animal friends are pretty sweet. And if you really want to beat the game you have to collect all of the bananna birds. This game still rocks
if you liked this game Check out DKC DKC 2 and the DKC 1, 2, 3 Version of the games for GBA.
My Favorite SNES Game

I love the DKC series and this is one of my favorite games for the SNES.
Pros:
Eight new worlds to make your way through
Fun mini games
Outstanding graphics
New challenges such as 85 bonus coins and 41 DK coins to collect
Interesting game play as well as an array of new villains
Cons:
The only con I can think of is that they replaced Rambi with Ellie (an annoying elephant).
This game is great and it is definitely worth picking up.
