Dixie Kong: Difference between revisions

Dixie Kong is Diddy Kong's girlfriend and one of the more popular Kongs. Though she first appeared in '

''Donkey Kong Country 2'' as Diddy Kong's sidekick, she later made the starring role of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', as well as the [[Game Boy]] versions ''Donkey Kong Land 2'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 3''. While she didn't return, as expected, in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', her sister, [[Tiny Kong]], served as her replacement, to the displeasure of many fans. Dixie did not appear again (not counting her [[trophy]] in ''Melee'' until ''[[Donkey Konga]] 2'' on the [[GameCube]], a bongo rhythm game. She appeared once again in the Japan only ''Donkey Konga 3''. She is also a playable character in ''Diddy Kong Racing DS'', ''Mario Hoops 3-On- 3'',  ''Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast'', and ''Mario Super Sluggers'' for [[Wii]]. Dixie's only appearance in a true ''Donkey Kong'' game since ''DKL3'', aside from the [[Game Boy Advance]] remakes of ''DKC2'' and ''DKC3'' has been as a multiplayer option in ''DK: King of Swing'' for the GBA, and then again in ''Donkey Kong Jungle Climber'' for the [[Nintendo DS]]. Dixie is remembered by her ability to twirl her hair to slowly float downwards, an ability that made her often the preferred choice over Diddy in "DKC2,,and Kiddy Kong in ''DKC3'', because it made it much easier to access hard-to-reach-places and bonus games. Dixie Kong has secured her place as one of the main Donkey Kong characters and appears 3rd only to Donkey and Diddy.
