A '''Banana Bunch''' is a group of [[banana]]s usually worth ten bananas. They were first featured in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and reappeared in the the other games in the series. In ''Donkey Kong Country'', [[Donkey Kong]] could find Banana Bunches by pounding the ground. Later, in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', Banana Bunches were worth five bananas. Additionally, Banana Bunches could only be collected by a [[Kong]] whose color matched it. Three giant Banana Bunches appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' at the end of each level in the [[Banana Kingdom]]. When Donkey Kong bites one of these Banana Bunches, juice will pour out, and the level will end. In ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', the Banana Bunch consists of five Banana Peels that can be dropped on the track, since then Banana Bunches have been normal items in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart Series]]'', however in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and games after that, they only have three Bananas on them. In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' and the other ''Mario Party'' games after, Banana Bunches are worth five bananas. They were mainly found in [[Donkey Kong Mini-game]]s.
'''Banana Bunch''' is a [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Tennis (Game Boy Color)|Mario Tennis]]'' for the [[Game Boy Color]]. A variation of tennis, the premise is to hit [[Banana]] panels with a tennis ball as [[Donkey Kong]]. Points are scored for every Banana (or banana bunch) hit.
