Donkey Kong Land
Donkey Kong Land features a heavily chiptune arrangement of "Aquatic Ambiance" due to the hardware limitations of the Game Boy. It plays in Reef Rampage and Nautilus Chase.
This arrangement is also included in the Game Boy Color port of Donkey Kong Country.
Donkey Kong Country series
Donkey Kong Country 3
In Donkey Kong Country 3 (the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!), an arrangement of "Aquatic Ambiance" is incorporated into the theme heard during the game's opening cutscene and title screen.

Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D feature an arrangement of "Aquatic Ambiance," titled "Aquatic Ambiance Returns" in the music gallery, that plays while riding the whale in Blowhole Bound.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch port feature five arrangements of "Aquatic Ambiance." The first arrangement, titled "Mangrove Cove Underwater" in the music menu, plays during the underwater section of Mangrove Cove.
A second arrangement, titled "Aquatic Ambiance Returns," plays in the deeper underwater section of Deep Keep, the entire underwater section of Current Capers, and the entirety of Shoal Atoll.
