PEGI 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.
