====European====
*King K. Rool instantly throws his crown after the cannonball attack. In the other two versions, this is no longer the case.

====Japanese====
=====Title screen=====
In the North American and PAL versions of Donkey Kong Country, the title screen shows Donkey and Diddy swinging on a rope.
