I discovered this later in life too.  Hit-wise it didn't do well compared to Donkey Kong or Donkey Kong Jr.  Some consider it a shooter too, LOL: To compete with Galaga.  This is probably why it didn't do as well as Nintendo hoped.  It's kind of like what happened to Super Pac-man vs. Ms. Pac and Pac-man.  As Yots said it's underrated.  But still a great game.

But I love the game.  Reminds me of the Nintendo Game & Watch "Greenhouse" game which I had as a kid.

Donkey Kong 3 is a great game! I don't like it as much as the original but it's still a good game.

DK3 is a lot of fun.  If I ever go MAME vs my current ArcadeSD in my 4-way vert cabinet, I want to give this game a go.  Looks like a lot of fun.

We had this game in my house growing up, all my friends were super jealous.  :afro:

I love this game so much, and playing it again on arcade controls is the main motive for my mame cabinet.
