Extended music:
Press L, R, A, B, X, Y
at the game over screen when the small cubes appear after the song is done to
play different notes. Press Start to quit.
Lost World Of Krematoa:
Locate the four rocks that are placed in a circle. Jet ski around
the rocks in a counter-clockwise circle until a noise is heard. The Lost World
will appear in the light blue circle in the water between the rocks.
Hint: Easy final K. Rool battle:
To defeat the final K. Rool (in the sub) easier, pause the game when
he starts firing the lower sparks from his generator. Normally it will diffuse
on the metal barrel, but you can dodge it completely by pausing the game when
the lower spark appears. If done correctly, the end pieces will remain on screen,
but the middle will be still moving. Wait until it completely crosses the screen
before resuming the game. Proper timing is important, as mistiming will result
in a long spark that fills the screen.
Hint: Find the Mother Banana Bird:
When you get the Gyrocopter, fly to the clouds. Search in the clouds
until you go to another area. The Mother Banana Bird will be there. She is trapped
and you will need all of the Banana Birds to free her. There are thirteen of
them. She tells a great story of how she and her children (the Banana Birds)
got trapped. Note: To find three Banana Birds, get the Gyrocopter. There is
a cave at the top right of the screen as well as at the bottom, close to where
you jumped into the water to begin your journey. The last one is up on the island
by the clouds.
Hint: DK coins:
If you forgot if you got a DK coin in a past level, just check what
kind of flag it has. If the flag is striped (yellow and blue or red), it indicates
that you have already have the DK coin. If it is a solid color (blue or red)
it indicates that you have not gotten the DK coin. Before you enter a world,
check what kind of flag it has. If the flag is black and has a white K, it that
means that you have not defeated either the Boss, all of the stages, or both.
If it is one solid color (blue or red), there are one or more stages that you
have not gotten the DK coin. If it is striped, you have gotten all of the DK
coins in the world. Note: There are 41 DK coins in all, including the Lost World.
You get a DK coin from the Nautilus boss. Exchange these coins with Funky to
get his best creation, the Gyrocopter.
Hint: Barrel-shield Bust-up: Shortcut:
When you get into a tree with hole in the bottom, go through the
hole and hold Left.
Hint: Bobbing Barrel Brawl: Shortcut:
Team up above the Red Bee at the beginning
Hint: Murkey Mill: Shortcut:
When you are at the top of the wooden elevator, stack up on each
other and throw Dixie near the top of the left side edge. This is a shortcut
to the end of the level.
Hint: Skidda's Row: Unlimited silver coins:
Get to the "B" box to kill the enemies. When it takes you
out of it, you can return and go back in it. Run in to an enemy and when you
come out it will give you a silver coin so you can buy items. Repeat this to
get as many coins as needed.
Hint: Defeating Belcha:
Belcha will spit barrels out of his mouth. Jump on the barrels and
a bug will appear. Jump on the bug and pick it up. Throw it back in Belcha's
mouth. Belcha will jump backwards into a hole on the right.
Glitch: Lose items:
When you get the present from the snow bear, take it to Blue's Beach
Hut and give it to him. When he opens it, he will give you it. Immediately before
the bowling ball gets into your item box, run out of the cabin. If done correctly
you should not have gotten the bowling ball. Do not save or else you will not
be able to get the bowling ball back. You need the bowling ball to get a Banana
Bird. If you go back into the beach hut, Blue will not have the ball and neither
will you.
