'''''Donkey Kong Land III''''' (also formatted as '''''Donkey Kong Land 3'''''<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/19980704233323/http://www.rare.co.uk:80/retro/backcat/gamepages/dkl3.html ''Donkey Kong Land 3'' on Rareware's official website (Wayback Machine)]</ref>) is a [[Genre#Platform|platformer]] video game for the [[Game Boy]] developed by [[Rare Ltd.|Rareware]] and published by [[Nintendo]] in 1997. It is loosely based on the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] game, ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', as it features the same characters, enemies, and level environments. It also stars [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]]. ''Donkey Kong Land III'' is the third and final entry of the [[Donkey Kong Land (series)|''Donkey Kong Land'']] series. Like its two predecessors, ''Donkey Kong Land III'' is housed on a yellow cartridge and it has specific [[Super Game Boy]] enhancements, including a unique border of pocket watches.

The original Game Boy version was never released in Japan, which instead received a [[Game Boy Color]] [[Reissue#Ports|port]] in 2000, titled, '''''Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong''''' (ドンキーコングGB ディンキーコング&ディクシーコング). It is not dual compatibile with original Game Boy units, as evident from the transparent cartridge it is contained in. The Game Boy Color port was never released outside of Japan.
