'''Wrinkly's Save Cave''' (misspelled as '''Crinkly's Save Cave''' in a ''[[Official Nintendo Magazine|Nintendo Magazine System]]'' (UK) issue<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 51, page 15 ({{media link|NMS UK 51 page 15 snippet.jpg|snippet}}).</ref>) is a grotto where [[Wrinkly Kong]] resides in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' It is also where [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] visit to save their game progress.
'''Wrinkly's Save Caves''', later retitled '''Wrinkly Refuge''', are a series of supporting locations run by [[Wrinkly Kong]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. It is where the player saves their game progress. A single [[Wrinkly's Retreat]] appears on the main map in the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]] of the former game because saving is now done from the main menu.
==Overview==
Wrinkly's Save Cave is the successor to the [[Kong Kollege]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and [[Candy's Save Point]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. After the events of ''Donkey Kong Country 2'', Wrinkly retired from being a teacher and moved to the Northern Kremisphere, where she resided in several caves. Unlike Kong Kollege, Wrinkly does not provide any level hints to the [[Kong]]s.


A Wrinkly's Save Cave appears in every world of [[Northern Kremisphere]], including the main overworld itself, where it appears between [[Bazaar's General Store]] and [[Funky's Rentals]]. Wrinkly's Save Cave can be identified on the world map from a flashing white light.
==History==
===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''===
Some time before the game's events, Wrinkly retired from [[Kong Kollege]], her supporting location from {{a|DKC2DKQ|l}} and {{a|DKL2|l}}.<ref>{{cite|quote=I've found life too hectic at [[Kong Kollege|school]] with all those naughty [[Kremling]]s pestering me all the time!|author=Wrinkly Kong|date=1996|title=''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> A Wrinkly's Save Cave is stationed in the [[Northern Kremisphere]] map, between [[Bazaar's General Store]] and [[Funky's Rentals]], and in every world. Wrinkly does a variety of activities, such as exercising, sitting on her couch, sleeping, or playing a [[Nintendo 64]]; in the case of playing the Nintendo 64, the music is similar to the [[Peach's Castle (theme)|Peach's Castle]] theme from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Other than saving the game for free (unlike at Kong Kollege), Wrinkly looks after every [[Banana Bird]],<ref>{{cite|quote=Do keep a lookout for any banana birds - they're ever such nice company.|author=Wrinkly Kong|title=''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''}}</ref> until they return to the [[Banana Queen]].


Each time Dixie and Kiddy enter Wrinkly's Save Cave, she is doing a specific activity, which is either exercising, playing a [[Nintendo 64]], sitting on her couch, or sleeping. Even if Wrinkly is asleep, the Kongs still opt to save their game themselves. Wrinkly also looks after the [[Banana Bird]]s rescued by the Kongs; after rescuing every Banana Bird, they return to the [[Banana Queen]].
===''Donkey Kong Land III'' / ''Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong''===
 
Wrinkly Refuge retains a similar layout in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'' and the localized ''Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong''. Wrinkly no longer does a random activity, nor do any Banana Birds appear.
In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, Wrinkly's Save Cave is reduced to a single [[Wrinkly's Retreat]] on the main Northern Kremisphere map, as saving can be done from the overworld {{button|GBA|Start}} menu. The other Save Cave locations were replaced with [[Cranky's Dojo]]. At Wrinkly's Retreat, Wrinkly simply waits for the Kongs to rescue the missing Banana Birds.
 
==Wrinkly Refuge==
[[File:Wrinkly Refuge DKL3.png|thumb|Wrinkly Refuge in ''Donkey Kong Land III'']]
In ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', Wrinkly's Save Cave is changed to '''Wrinkly Refuge''', although it is still where the Kongs must go in order to save their game. The interior layout is similar to the one in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' Wrinkly no longer performs various activities, as she is always sitting on her couch.

==Trivia==
*An arrangement of the "[[Inside the Castle Walls]]" theme from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' can be heard if Wrinkly is playing her [[Nintendo 64]].
*While playing ''Super Mario 64'', Wrinkly sometimes asks "Why don't they make games about knitting?". There are two ''Super Mario''-themed knitting games, both of which were only released in Japan, ''[[I am a teacher: Super Mario Sweater]]'' and ''[[Mario Family]]''.

Wrinkly's Save Caves, later retitled Wrinkly Refuge, are a series of supporting locations run by Wrinkly Kong in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. It is where the player saves their game progress. A single Wrinkly's Retreat appears on the main map in the remake of the former game because saving is now done from the main menu.

History[edit]

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble![edit]

Some time before the game's events, Wrinkly retired from Kong Kollege, her supporting location from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2.[1] A Wrinkly's Save Cave is stationed in the Northern Kremisphere map, between Bazaar's General Store and Funky's Rentals, and in every world. Wrinkly does a variety of activities, such as exercising, sitting on her couch, sleeping, or playing a Nintendo 64; in the case of playing the Nintendo 64, the music is similar to the Peach's Castle theme from Super Mario 64. Other than saving the game for free (unlike at Kong Kollege), Wrinkly looks after every Banana Bird,[2] until they return to the Banana Queen.

Donkey Kong Land III / Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong[edit]

Wrinkly Refuge retains a similar layout in Donkey Kong Land III and the localized Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong. Wrinkly no longer does a random activity, nor do any Banana Birds appear.
