The game was re-released on the Wii Virtual Console in North America on July 14, 2008 and in Europe on January 9, 2009. Although it is a sequel, this title is a radical departure in gameplay from previous titles. Donkey Kong 3 was also the first game to bear the current Donkey Kong logo (although the logo in the game was green instead of red).
