AtomPEGI reveals DKC3 coming to the Virtual Console, nobody is surprised
A recent update to the PEGI (Europe's ESRB equivalent) website has revealed that Donkey Kong Country 3 is heading to the Virtual Console…at some point. While this shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, seeing as how the first two games in the series are already out on the VC, it's still nice to have any confirmation at all of upcoming VC titles as Nintendo is pretty tight-lipped when it comes to the subject. While a good game in it's own right, DKC3 is still considered the weakest entry in the series by most. Contributing highly to this are both the introduction of Kiddy Kong (meaning that both original stars of the series are no longer present) and the fact that after the extremely challenging DKC2, the third entry in the series saw a dramatic drop in difficulty. And as always in situations like this, the game being posted on the PEGI website shouldn't be taken as 100% confirmation that the game is coming to the US, but it does make it extremely likely.

I really liked it for it’s time. Despite the fact that Kiddy Kong has to be one of the worst Donkey Kong characters ever. Of all the pairings in the world and poor Dixie gets stuck with a creepy deformed baby gorilla with the eye stare of death. And the crystal tapping thing got extremely frustrating near the end that I almost wrecked my SNES controller trying to beat it. Still, I found it to be an enjoyable platformer, and it was also the last decent Rare platformer before the DK64 thing came around, and crapped all over the Donkey Kong name with it’s awfulness.
