The Green Balloon is an item exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS version of Donkey Kong Country Returns, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. It is identical to an Extra Life Balloon, except, as its name indicates, it is colored green. It can be obtained at Cranky Kong's Shop for three Banana Coins.
If Donkey Kong (or Diddy Kong in multiplayer mode) equips a Green Balloon, it brings him back to the stage after falling into a bottomless pit. However, Green Balloons cannot be used in stages which require Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong to keep moving, or when falling into pits is impossible (such as when riding a Minecart or a Rocket Barrel).
