'''Kannonballs'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, page 17.</ref> are large, black steel balls that have appeared as items throughout the ''Donkey Kong'' series of games.

Kannonballs first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' throughout the game's many levels. A Kannonball can be grabbed by [[Diddy Kong]] or [[Dixie Kong]] and used as a weapon against enemies, even though the main purpose of Kannonballs is to bring them to a [[Kannon (cannon)|Kannon]]. Once a Kannonball is thrown into a Kannon, it will activate it and allow Diddy and Dixie Kong to be blasted to a [[Bonus Barrel]]. Kannonballs are also shot out of [[Kaptain K. Rool]]'s blunderbuss, which can be thrown when he uses it as a vacuum to backfire.
 
Kannonballs also appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', where they serve the same basic purpose as in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', being used as a weapon and the key to activating Kannons.
 
In ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', a single, extremely large Kannonball can be found near the entrance to [[Gloomy Galleon]]. Players must have [[Chunky Kong]] lift this Kannonball and bring it to a nearby Kannon; once the Kannonball is brought to this Kannon, it will activate it. Using the Kannon, players must use it to shoot several moving targets in the room their in, with a limited amount of time and Kannonballs for ammunition. If players hit all the targets with Kannonballs, they will gain a [[Golden Banana]].
 
==Trivia==
*Unlike the Kannonballs of ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', the Kannonballs in ''Donkey Kong 64'' explode when they hit something, instead of simply bouncing off them.
