'''Kannonballs''' are large, black steel balls that have appeared as items throughout the Donkey Kong series of games.

Kannonballs first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' throughout the game's many levels. A Kannonball could be grabbed by [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] or [[Dixie Kong]] and used as a weapon against enemies; though the main purpose of Kannonballs is to bring them to a [[Kannon (cannon)|Kannons]]. Once a Kannoball is thrown into a Kannon, it will activate it and allow Diddy and Dixie Kong to be blasted to a [[Bonus Barrel]].

Kannonballs also appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', where they serve the same basic purpose as in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', being used as a weapon and the key to activating Kannons.

In ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' a single, extremely large Kannonball can be found near the entrance to [[Gloomy Galleon]]. Players must have [[Chunky Kong]] lift this Kannonball and bring it to a nearby Kannon; once the Kannonball is brought to this Kannon, it will activate it. Using the Kannon, players must use it to shoot several moving targets in the room their in in, with a limited amount of time and Kannonballs for ammunition. If players hit all the targets with Kannonballs, they will gain a [[Golden Banana]].

== Trivia ==

Unlike the Kannonballs of ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', the Kannonballs in ''Donkey Kong 64'' explode when they hit something, instead of simply bouncing off them.
Also during the boss battles agaisnt the final boss,He shots [[spiked kannonballs]] mostly.
