DKC3 built on what DKC2 had made. This platformer has some of the most stunning graphics for the snes, and possibly for any 2D game. Gameplaywise, it is an almost complete rehash of DKC2, which still means it is a great game. Dixie Kong retains all her abilities from DKC2, while Kiddy Kong brings his weight to the fold.
