It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
Template:Infobox Donkey Kong Land was a video game developed by Rareware for the Game Boy. Released in 1995, it was a handheld follow-up of Donkey Kong Country. The game was also one of the few Game Boy games to feature a specially colored cartridge (yellow), which was also used on the sequels, Donkey Kong Land 2 and Donkey Kong Land III. It was also one of the first games to feature Super Game Boy special features, including a rendered jungle border across the television screen.
The game is a pseudo-sequel to Donkey Kong Country; after Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong defeat King K. Rool and get the Banana Hoard back, Cranky Kong makes a bet with the two Kongs that they couldn't do it on a handheld game. He demands that K. Rool steals the Banana Hoard again, and DK and Diddy are set out on another quest.
The game is often mistaken as a Game Boy 'port' of Donkey Kong Country. Although this is true in the manner that the two games play the same using the same engine - it is false because not only is the storyline different (if only a little), but Donkey Kong Land has different levels, enemies and bosses to Donkey Kong Country.
