'''Blue''' is one of the [[Brothers Bear]]s in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. He lives in a hut that is the first location of [[Cotton-Top Cove]], Blue's Beach Hut. His main characteristic is how he often feels discouraged and sad.

Blue allows the [[Kong]]s to keep it, having no use for the bowling ball.
 
== Summary ==
Blue's name is derived from the word "blue". In his case, this refers to two things: Blue constantly "has the blues" and his fur color is blue. The former attribute is reflected in the original version from a slowed-down, downtrodden variant of the Brothers Bear theme playing as background music in his location.
 
His sadness stems from how nobody remembered his birthday. It is later revealed that [[Blizzard (character)|Blizzard]], the Brothers Bear of [[K3]], did remember Blue's birthday and even got him a [[Present (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Present]]. He cannot deliver it because they live too far away from each other, so he requests [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] to do it instead.
 
When the [[Kong]]s re-enter Blue's Beach Hut with the Present, Blue cheers up and happily unwraps it (and the background music speeds up and becomes more lively in the original version). The Present contains a [[Bowling Ball]], which Blue claims to have no use for. He gives the item to the Kongs and allows them to keep it.

==Trivia==
*Upon close inspection, the player can see a calendar in his beach hut, with the date of his alleged birthday marked, January 16th. This was removed from his redesigned location in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake.
*In the Game Boy Advance remake, like the other Brothers Bear locations, Blue's Beach Hut was also redesigned. The whole interior is decorated with party favors, including balloons, cards, birthday cake, and presents. His place also received a bookshelf and fireplace. The liveliness of the redesigned area directly contrasts with his sadness.

Blue is a member of the Brothers Bear who appears in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Besides his fur color, his name refers to how he "has the blues," because feeling discouraged and sad is his main characteristic. Blue holds a harmonica in his artwork and Dixie Kong's Photo Album picture, a further reflection of his personality. In the remake, Blue had his sprite redesigned, and he also wears a red-striped party hat. Blue lives inside his own beach house in Cotton Top Cove. He is sad because nobody remembered his birthday, though it is later revealed that Blizzard did remember Blue's birthday and had a present for him but cannot deliver it due to their long distance apart from one another. When the present is delivered, Blue cheers up and happily unwraps it to find a bowling ball. Blue allows the Kongs to keep it, having no use for the bowling ball.
