Bachelor introduces himself to the Kongs.

Bachelor Pad is the home of Bachelor, who appears only in the Game Boy Advance version of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. It is located on an island in the middle of Lake Orangatanga.

Appearance

A few things appear in the background of his home, Bachelor Pad. Bachelor stands at a desk resembling one of a receptionist's. He has two white tables, one in front of him and another on the opposite end of the room. The former desk has a drink on it. He has a pair of blue weights lying on the floor, which suggests that he works out, and a mirror on the left side. Bachelor Pad has a clear view of Lake Orangatanga from its entrance. Despite the front door's location, the Kongs walk into his residence from the left side of the screen.

History

When Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong first stop in at Bachelor Pad, the Brothers Bear informs them that he has a hot date coming up, and needs both a Rose and a Box of Chocolates. He also gives the Kongs a Flupperius Petallus Pongus, which can be exchanged for a Rose at Bramble's Bungalow. The Box of Chocolates can be purchased at Bazaar's General Store. By bringing both of these items to Bachelor, he reward the Kongs with a Banana Bird.

In the Super Nintendo version of the game, the island in the center of Lake Orangatanga is Barnacle's Island. In the Game Boy Advance remake of the game, Barnacle and his island were relocated to the new area of Pacifica.
