Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest Cheats For Super Nintendo

  1. Unlimited Lives

    After you've beaten Hot-Head Hop, return there with both Diddy and Dixie. When you first enter the stage, throw your partner on top of the entrance and go up. You'll find a treasure chest sitting there, hidden in plain sight due to a darker color palette. It contains a Green Balloon, worth 2 lives. After collecting it, press Start and then Select. You'll instantly get out of the level, but you'll retain the lives you got. Reenter the level and repeat the process as many times as you want. This method only takes a few minutes and will grant you an endless supply of lives.

  4. Honey is kinda funny

    Normally walking on honey will slow you down. But if you’re in team-up mode, you walk at normal speed.

  5. Squawks's Shaft Warp

    At the start of the level, walk forward until you reach the right edge of the starting platform. You'll find a Banana Coin floating underneath the next platform, but there's an invisible warp barrel further to right of it. It's aligned with the center of the blue-rimmed hole in the background. To reach it, use either Diddy's cartwheel or Dixie's spinning glide with a jump. You'll get launched to a hidden area that will warp you to the end of the level.

There's an invisible warp barrel directly over it. To reach it, have the balloon float over the vent as high as possible, jump up, and throw your partner straight up. You'll get launched to a hidden area that will warp you to the end of the level.

  7. Lava Lagoon Warp

    When you reach Clapper the Seal and use him to cool off the water for the first time, don't start swimming. Instead, keep platforming on the boxes floating on top of the water. Keep going until you reach the row of boxes with a Klampon walking on it. Kill the Klampon and stand at the edge of the box on the far right. There's an invisible warp barrel directly above it. Jump up, and then throw your partner straight up. You'll get launched to a hidden area that will warp you to the end of the level.

To reach it, jump off the platform and use Dixie's gliding ability to float backwards to the right towards the bucket. You'll get launched to a hidden area that will warp you to the end of the level.

  14. 75 Kremcoins

    Enter the game's first stage, "Pirate Panic"-it doesn't matter if you do this in a new game or a saved game. Walk to the right until you see the entrance to K. Rool's Cabin. Watch out for the two bananas on the ground right in front of the door; you must avoid these two bananas throughout the entire sequence or else the trick will not work. Walk inside the cabin, but do NOT touch the red 1-UP balloon; just walk out immediately. Back outside, you must carefully jump over the two bananas without touching them. Now go to the right and grab the first bunch of bananas you see on top of a set of barrels. Next, get back into the cabin without touching the two bananas in front of the door. This time, grab the red balloon and exit. Finally, go back to the barrels again and grab that same bunch of bananas, returning to the cabin without touching the two bananas in front of the door. When you enter, you'll find a spinning coin that gives you an incredible 75 Kremcoins. Now you can access the Lost World through Klubba's Kiosks on any part of the island.

  15. Rickety Race - Boost Barrel

    In Rickety Race, when you jump into the minecart, hold left. When the light turns green you will go backwards and hit a hidden "+" barrel which will cause your cart to drastically speed up -- even allowing you to plow through the first three racers instead of having to jump over them.

  16. Beat Screech's Sprint Without Racing

    Once you get half way through "Screech's Sprint" you will transform into the bird, and, normally, you will fly up to Screech and the race will start. If you come up right behind Screech to where the race will not start yet, and you fly upwards (you must have both characters at this point for this to work), you will then hit the the ceiling and hurt yourself causeing yourself to blink. Quickly, while you are still blinking, pass Screech and head off to the rest of the level without having to worry about doing it in good time.

  17. Gangplank Galley Warp

    At the very start of the level, you'll find a stack of barrels in the background. If you climb to the top, you'll see a barrel that will launch you to a bonus game. However, there is a hidden warp barrel directly above it off-screen. To reach it, you need to jump to the right off the top of the stack, turn in midair, and then throw your partner into the upper lefthand corner of the screen. If done correctly, your partner will be caught in the warp barrel. You'll get launched to a hidden area that will warp you to the end of the level.

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest Cheats For Game Boy Advance

  1. Cranky's Video Game Heroes

    Whenever you are walking between levels (not when you are on the Gyrocopter) Press L and R at the same time, the screen should star wipe, and you will be at Cranky's Video Game Heroes hall of fame. This is where you can see your ranking with medals, against all time Nintendo heroes.

  2. ''Invincible'' in Funky's ''Kongstruction''

    During Funky's Challenge "Kongstruction" there are annoying Flitters everywhere that hurt you if you bump into them. At the start bump into them until you explode. When the screen says "give up?" say no and continue. Now when you bump into Flitters you won't get hurt. The only way you can get hurt is by bumping into walls. This will make the event easier.

  3. Gangplank Galley Level Warp

    In the level Gangplank Galley, jump up the first barrels at the start, up where the first Bonus Barrel is. Instead of jumping inside the Bonus Barrel, jump up to the right of it, where the sun is in the background. You'll disappear and hear a sound effect, then you are taken to a "Level Warp!"-Screen. Just go into the right door. You are now directly before the end of this level!
