He is fought in the level [[Mad Mole Holes]] of [[Monkey Mountains & Chimpanzee Clouds]]. Similarly to a game of {{wp|Whac-A-Mole}}, Hard Hat pops out from one of three holes and tries throwing his hat at [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]]. The active [[Kong]] must jump over his hat and jump on Hard Hat's head before he regains his hat. Hard Hat throws his hat quicker after a couple of hits, and after taking eight hits, Hard Hat is defeated. | '''Hard Hat''', also known as '''Buroughs''',<ref>{{cite|title=''[[Nintendo Power]]'' Volume 69|page=92|date=February 1995|quote=Don't rile Buroughs!

In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' [[Super Mario-kun Volume 15|volume 15]], Hard Hat is the only boss from ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'' to appear, but not the sole enemy, as the [[Hogwash the Flying Pig|Hogwashes]] appeared in the previous chapter. In chapter 6, [[Mario]] is turned into a [[Baby Mario|baby]] by a de-aging gas. A [[Message Block]] states that the moles have a potion to remedy that when Hard Hat appears. When he refuses to give his potion, [[Yoshi]] and the [[Kong]]s chase him with the [[Mole Tank]], but he uses the potion on himself, becoming big and trapping DK and Diddy Kong under his helmet. While going after Yoshi, he trips and Baby Mario is sent towards a [[POW Block]] which he hits, turning Hard Hat into a series of [[Star (Yoshi's Island series)|Stars]], defeating him. With what is left of the potion, Mario is turned back to his normal age. | In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' [[Super Mario-kun Volume 15|volume 15]], Hard Hat is the only boss from ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'' to appear, but not the sole enemy, as the [[Hogwash the Flying Pig|Hogwashes]] appeared in the previous chapter.
