Easy Lives

Here is a way to get lots of lives without cheating. Complete the first level, then go back in and get to the halfway barrel and press Start+Select. Go in to the level, and, making sure you have Donkey Kong out, run to the left and jump on to the big Kremling. When you are in the air after jumping, keep pressing jump and you will land on the tree where there will be a balloon. This can be hard to master. When you've got the balloon, roll off the tree to the right and press jump. You will land on another tree with a balloon. Then go back to the start of the level and get the balloon in the tree house. When you get out, hop from tree to tree by rolling off and jumping in mid-air. There are three trees with balloons (red, green and blue balloons), and once you get them, run back to the banana hoard. Go in and then out and the balloons in the trees will be back. You can do this as many times as needed.

Easy continue

With one life remaining, enter a level that was previously completed and lose your life. Press any button at the game over screen to return to the Cranky Kong opening screen. Enable the "Bonus games practice" code and play the bonus games to earn a surplus of lives. Then, press Start to pause game play, and press Select to return to the place where the last life was lost.

Long jumps

To make either character jump farther, run towards a gap. As you reach the edge, press Y to make them do their trademark move (Donkey King rolls and Diddy cartwheels) off the cliff. They will appear to walk on air slightly, but as soon as you see them start to fall press B to make them jump.

Getting Enguarde

There is a 1 up from where you start, a 2-up to the left, a 3-up to the right, and big fish downwards.

Getting Expresso

When you reach the dead end, go on the topmost part, jump, flap once, and go to the right. If done correctly, you will be in a room with the big ostrich.

Getting Rambi

Keep jumping on the top platforms until you get to the end.

Getting Winky

Go to the left. When you reach a dead end go up. Keep doing this until you get the big frog.

Jump back into treehouse on level 1 to find an extra life balloon.
Stay high in the tree tops in the first level to find some extra lives

Hidden underground banana bunches

With Kong, duck and press Y and a bunch of bananas may pop up from the ground. With Diddy or Kong, if you jump from a high place on to the ground, a bunch of bananas may pop up from the ground.

Jungle Hijinxs level: Extra lives

Get a ride on Rambi until you get to the cave where you go to exit the level. Jump on top of the cave and repeatedly press B, A until you get shot out of a barrel. If done correctly you can collect a 6-Up balloon.

Mine Cart Carnage: Shortcut

Jump over the edge on the right and hold Left until you hear a bang. Jump over one enemy to complete the level.
Jump Over the blast star barrel and press Left when you are falling

Ostrich bonus round

When you go into the Ostrich bonus round, go back over the top where you came out of to find a secret room full of small birds. Get them and then get the other birds to have more birds than you would originally had.
Go all the way to the right, up on the top to find a hidden room and a golden ostrich. Get it will to make all of the others small and get a 100 golden ostrich.

Platform Perils: Bonus round

There is an automatic barrel just below the entrance to the Platform Perils level in the Chimp Caverns. Pick up the barrel and knock off the Krusha. Then, jump on the first moving platform. Before it gets too far out, move in the direction of the entrance. You should land on a secret moving platform that will take you to a bonus round.

Rhinoceros bonus round

Go all the way to the right, up on the top to find a hidden room and a golden rhinoceros. Get it will to make all of the others small and get a 100 golden rhinoceros. To get there, go left and jump up on top of the door you used to enter. Then, hop along the stones at the top.

Ropey Rampage: Shortuct

Get to where the letter "O" is located. Then, fall straight down in-between the group of three trees and the single tree with the blue alligator. There is a barrel that will automatically shoot you into the side of a cliff. This will break open a secret door. Jump from rope to rope until you get to the other side of the large gap. You will find the letter "N" there. To exit, walk through the cave door or jump into the gap (this will not kill you). You will be shot forward into the level.

Ropey Rampage: Red balloon

Play the level until you get to the sign that points to the exit. Go back to the hole that is just before it. Jump into the hole. A barrel will blast you upwards. The goal is to find the red balloon. Watch the balloon and the last barrel it appears on -- jump up and hit it. The balloon will then flash on top of the correct barrel. If you were correct, you can collect the balloon.

Slip-Slide-Ride level: Shortcut

After you go up the rope at the entrance, there is a barrel that Donkey Kong can jump into up against the left wall, just out of sight. This will transport you much closer to the end of the level.

Stop & Go Station level: Shortcut

Walk back through the entrance of "Stop & Go Station" to get transported about three quarters of the way through the level.

Ninety-nine lives

Go to the first level and keep playing to get as many extra lives as possible. You will get a total of about ten extra lives every time you play that level. Just repeat this to collect up to ninety-nine lives.
Go to the Manic Mincers level. When you pass the halfway point, turn into Diddy. Allow the first blue muscle guy to fall into the hole. Just when he falls in the hole, hold Back then hold B. After you hit him nine times you will start gaining lives.
