How do I save my game?

I was playing Donkey Kong Land for the first time last night and it saved after the first level. I figured it would save after every level, but after I completed the second level and went to the third, it didn't save. I ended up getting a Game Over in level 3, and when I went back to my file, it had just saved when I beat the first level, not the second.

How do I tell the game I want to save? Is that an option, or does it only save every few levels?

I know I can work around this somewhat by abusing the restore point feature on the 3DS Virtual Console games, but I'd like to save the game properly if I can.
