=>Exit Completed Levels: Pause and press [SELECT].
=>Sound Test: Go to the Game Select screen and highlight the Erase Game
option. Press D A [R] B Y D A Y. Press [SELECT] to change the music playing.
=>Practice Bonus Games: Turn on the SNES and before the Game Select screen
appears, press D Y D D Y.
=>DYDDY Continue: If you have but one life left, enter a level you have
previously beaten, then die. The Game Over screen will appear; press any
button to return to the opening screen (Cranky Kong). Now, press D Y D D Y
to enter the Bonus Game practice cave. Play Bonus Games until you have
earned as many lives as you wish, then press [START] to pause the game and
press [SELECT]. You will return to the area of the game in which you had
been killed.
=>50 Lives: To place 50 lives in any active file, highlight ERASE GAME on the
Game Select screen, then press B A [R] [R] A [L] (i.e. BARRAL). Now, begin
any game with 50 lives in reserve.
->Mario-Style 99 Lives: Enter the Maniac Mincers stage, then find a Krusha
who is stuck in a whole. Have Diddy bounce on him repeatedly to earn lives.
=>Bad Buddy A: Normally, while playing a Team game, the inactive character
cannot play until tagged by the other player. However, if you go to the
Game Select screen, highlight ERASE GAME, press B A D B U D D Y A, then
start a two-player game, the inactive character can press [SELECT] at any
time to take over.
=>Easy 1-Up: When you begin the game and boom out of DK's hut, reenter it to
collect a red 1-up balloon.
->Warp: While walking between Coral Capers and Funky's Flights in the Kongo
Jungle, tap B quickly and repeatedly to warp to Orang-Utan Gang in Vine
Valley. Keep trying until you get the code to work.
->Unverified Warps: Press B+Y+U+R when walking through the bends in the first
world map. A similar trick is noted above, so this MAY work.
->Oil Drum Alley Bonus: The second bonus area in Oil Drum Alley contains its
own bonus area, but reaching it is difficult. When inside the bonus game
containing the item barrels, stop all three on the single banana and a
barrel will appear. Using Diddy, pick up the barrel and jump up and right
so that the wall stops you from any further movement and you slide down it.
When you hit the ground, Diddy's barrel will automatically smash the wall
open and you will walk right into the hidden bonus area. You can't reach
this area by tossing the barrel at the wall, for that would end the current
bonus area before you could reach the door.
->Flights: In Mine Cart Madness, reach the half-way point and then die. When
you reenter the level, hold Y+B right after you fall from the barrel but
before you enter the cart. You will now be able to fly through the level,
but you can't complete it unless you land in the mine cart.
* Run Away Railroad Glitch: With both Kongs in a mine cart, crash into the
first broken cart. Quickly tap B and Y until Kong starts hopping in the air;
keep him hopping with the buttons.
->Rambi Bug: In Bouncy Bonanza, enter the cave where you find Winky. Hop onto
Winky and exit the cave, the reenter the cave without Winky. Inside, hop on
Winky, the hop off and exit the cave without him. You should find yourself
falling down the passage atop Rambi.
->Double Control: Enter Oil Drum Alley, hit the midway barrel, then exit the
stage. Reenter the level and proceed left until you reach the blast barrel
that would normally shoot you up to the tall platform. Choose Donkey as you
character, but make sure you have Diddy running behind you. Stand on the
edge of the platform but don't touch the barrel; turn left so that Diddy is
standing inside the barrel. Quickly switch your characters twice; if you
time the switching just right, both Kongs will blast out of the barrel with
about 1 second between them. Hold R so that they fly over the platform
without falling to their deaths. You will now be able to control both Kongs
simultaneously; that is, Diddy will perfectly mimic Donkey's actions. Diddy
can now kill enemies, yet remain invincible. If either Kong falls into a
pit, both will die. NOTE: Diddy is faster than Donkey, so if you need to
have Donkey catch up, make them squat, press B for a hand slap and hold
diagonally downwards; Donkey will stay still and Diddy will cartwheel
towards whatever direction you wish. Also, this code can be done in other
levels where such a barrel situation is possible. Finally, if you swap
characters or get hit, you will have to repeat the trick.
->Super-Rambi: After doing the Double Control trick listed above, continue
through the level until you find a Rambi crate. Try to keep Diddy up away
from the small pit where the crate is located, then have Donkey jump onto
Rambi, bounce out via the tire and move right. If Diddy gets trapped in the
pit, press A to send Rambi to him, then have Rambi jump and have Diddy leap
off of him at the height of the jump. Now one character has Rambi, and the
other doesn't. Hold down diagonally and Rambi will stay still while the
other character moves. You are now ready to take Rambi to other levels.
With Donkey on Rambi, let Diddy drop into a pit and die while Donkey
remains safe. You will lose one life and exit the level. Enter any level
with animal buddy crates inside, and you will start with Donkey on Rambi. If
you want to have Diddy ride Rambi, have Donkey fall into the pit instead
while Diddy rides on Rambi. Start in any animal buddy level, reach a bonus
area, and switch to Donkey before you enter. When you exit, Diddy will be
on Rambi.
For Diddy to ride Rambi in a water stage, first make sure you know what
animal medallion is in that stage, then collect two of the medallions before
you begin this entire trick. After getting Diddy on Rambi and having Donkey
die as normal, enter the water level. Find the 3rd medallion and switch to
Donkey right before you grab it. When you finish the bonus stage, hold D+R
until you reappear, lest you become stuck in the scenery.
Other neat tricks that can be done involve letting both Kongs leap onto
Rambi simultaneously - two Rambis. Or, try the cheat that lets you have
Diddy on Rambi. After killing Donkey and beginning a new level, press
[SELECT] to switch players rather than going to a bonus room - weird things
will happen.
