Rareware Coin - Used with the nintendo coin to unlock the final key to K. Lumsey's Cage. Won by accumulating 5,000 points in the old arcade.

Blueprints

Kasplut Colors

When you see a Kasplut, look at his hair color. The color will tell you what color Blueprint he is holding (Example: Green hair means he has a green Blueprint). If he has white hair, that means he doesn't have anything. Using this tip can help you save time exploring.

Quick and Easy Health Refill

When your low on health go to the nearest tag barrel and jump in and then come out as that same person and your health will be refreshed! I found that this is better then risking a piece of the melon killing somebody.

Play Classic Donkey Kong

To play the classic arcade game, Donkey Kong, go to the third level, the Factory, and find the pad with Donkey Kong's face on it (you will need to have the ability to go to DKs barrel level) and press Z. When you are in the barrel level, complete it, and a switch will come up by the #5 pad, go there, and use DK to hit the switch, and you will be brought into the Classic DK game, where you are Mario, trying to rescue the Princess, while DK is throwing barrels at you.

Change Outfits in Multiplayer Mode

This is in the instruction manual, but for those who rented the game, you can change your character's outfit by pressing up or down on the control stick after you have selected a character.



The blueprints are not as crucial to collect as the fairies, but if you collect 40 and return them to Snide, you will get access to eight bonus levels.

Batty Barrel Bash - Although it has an unusual name, this is an easy game. It's a slot machine. Use A to spin the wheels, and then press A each time you wish to stop one.

Beaver Bother - In this game, you must get all of the beavers into the hole in the center of the barrel.

Big Bug Bash - This is a simple bonus level where you just have to swat the fly in the barrel.

Krazy Kong Klamor - In this shooting gallery, aim and shoot at the large banana. Be sure to not hit the Kongs!

Kremling Kosh - Kremling Kosh is basically Whack-a-Mole, but instead of moles you are whacking Kremlings. The same rules apply, just shoot a melon when the Kremling pops up.

Peril Path Panic - This is another shooting gallery where you must shoot melons into the mouths of the crocs so that they will not eat the fairies.

Searchlight Seek - Use your searchlight to spot a Klaptrap, then shoot it with a melon.

Teetering Turtle Trouble - This is yet another shooting gallery. This time, you must shoot the snakes so that they will not drop the turtles.

Kong Trampoline
This isn't a code; but it's a glitch. Start a game in multi-player mode. Have player one be any small kong (Diddy or Tiny). Have player two be a large kong (Donkey or Chunkey). Now, make player one stay in place. Next, make player two slap (punch or whatever) player one. Immediatly, player two should jump on top of player one. Now, player two can jump endlessly on player one!

Banana Fairy Cheats

Once you have unlocked Tiny Kong, and her first move, you can enter the island off the coast of Kong Isle, the one which looks like a face. This is the Banana Fairy Island, and you can use it to access several interesting codes. Jump in the barrel with Tiny's face on it and enter the small hole in the front of the island. Inside, the Banana Fairy will tell you all her fairies have escaped and will give you the camera and a more powerful attack. The attack can be used by holding B then releasing the button when it's fully charged. The camera (used with Z + bottom C) is used to photograph the fairies hidden throughout the levels.

Here is a list of the codes that can be unlocked by photographing fairies, which can be accessed in the main menu under "Mystery:"

2 Fairies: DK Theatre. This can be used to watch any cut scene in the game, providing you have seen it before in the game.
6 Fairies: Bonus arenas. These are 4 minigames including the original Jetpac and Donkey Kong arcade games and a Rambi and Engaurde arena open for play at any time.
10 Fairies: Boss battles. Now you can revisit and play any boss at any time.
15 Fairies: Battle Krusha. Now you can be a Krusha in multiplayer!
20 Fairies: Cheats. You can turn on different unlimited items, like infinite ammo and coins.
