History[edit]
Donkey Kong Country series[edit]
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble![edit]
Green bananas are featured in certainBonus Levels, ofDonkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, where the goal is forDixie andKiddy Kong to collect fifteen of themon time for aBonus Coin. Only one green banana spawns at a time, as well as in random spots. After a few seconds, if the green banana is not collected, it disappears before respawning elsewhere on the map.
Through the use of the "MERRY"code, which gives the Bonus Levels of the game a Christmas theme, the green bananas are replaced with presents, which serve the same purpose.
Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)[edit]
Green bananas[1] in the form of Banana Bunches reappear in certain levels offirst remake ofDonkey Kong Country. They are the same as ordinaryBanana Bunches, being worth tenbananas when collected, but their purpose is to indicate that aDK Sticker Pack is hidden nearby. By re-entering a level where the DK Sticker Pack has been obtained, the green banana becomes a regular Banana Bunch.
Donkey Kong 64[edit]
Green bananas inDonkey Kong 64 can be collected by onlyChunky Kong, appearing semi-transparent and non-tangible otherwise. The first seven stages each have 100 green bananas, and like the other banana colors, green bananas are required to feedScoff. GreenBanana Bunches also debut, being worth five green bananas, and popping a greenBanana Balloon with thePineapple Launcher earns Chunky ten green bananas.
Donkey Kong Country television series[edit]
In theDonkey Kong Country animated series, green bananas of a different type appear in the episode "Watch the Skies". They are eaten by Diddy, who believes it would keep the aliens away. Later, when he seesGeneral Klump sleepwalking and mistakes him for an alien, Diddy shoots a green banana out of its skin at him, waking him up.
