Where have all the good kongs gone And where’s the DK Crew Where’s the leader of the bunch To kick some tail for you Isn’t there a monkey Upon a rhino steed Late at night I skip and I hop And I dream of what I need He- he- here we go I need a DK I’m holding out for a DK ‘till the end of the run He’s got to be strong and he’s got to be fast And he’s got to be second to none I need a DK I’m holding out for a DK ‘till the morning sun He’s got to have style and he’s got to have grace And he’s got to have coconut guns Coconut guns Somewhere in the jungle In my wildest fantasies Somewhere just beyond the fridge Is someone crushing rocks with ease Put your hands together And join us in the rap It’s gonna take a Donkey Kong to Make me want to clap Up where the jetpacks reach the treetops above And where the monkey plays his tune Kremlings better beware because he’s after you Through the walnuts and peanuts and grapes And the pineapple smells I can feel his approach like he’s firing his shells Like he’s firing his shells (x3) Like he’s firing his Huh! (x2) DK I need a DK I’m holding out for a DK ‘till the morning sun He’s got to have style and he’s got to have grace And he’s got to have coconut guns Huh!(x6) DK Oh, he’s got to be strong and he’s got to be fast And he’s got to be second to none I need a DK

Don’t you need the puzzle pieces?

[@manupm9161]

It doesn't matter what the game says, it isn't a 100% if you don't get everything (including the puzzle pieces)

[@LU_Speedruns]

It doesn't matter what they or you think here. By the game's definition 100% or 200% means just beating every level (and collecting all the KONG letters for the K-Levels). Puzzle pieces and everything else, such as doing additional exits, won't increase the percentage. Due to this, there are even two separate speedrun categories that either collect them all or just get 100% by the game's definition.

[@blueblazeflame]

As someone who 100%’d the game years ago on the Wii U version, this was an insanely hard game but also a VERY satisfying achievement

[@ori9128]

[@tyrantent8271]

Now you GOTTA do Yooka Laylee & The Impossible Lair!

[@King-K-Club]

I'm very impressed how quickly they pulled off Bopopolis. That is universally known as one of the hardest levels, and many think it's the hardest. There's a few bounces you have to do differently than the others and you can't explain it. When get to them you just know it. I've never played it two player so that might make it easier, but personally I'd assume it would be harder that way. On a side note, I love that level and when I play the game I go to that level to farm balloon lives.

[@grunkleg.3110]

Bopopolis is one of the easier K-Levels IMO. All you need to know for that level is that you'll always get a high bounce if you hold the jump button and that the game pretty much autopilots you into each enemy. 5-K and even 3-K were nightmares in comparison.

[@dioonthebeat1119]

Finally the game i was waiting for thx choc

[@stevenmattrell3448]

I remember Nintendo posting a video about this game years ago where it was two employees playing their favourite levels. For context it was two people, a guy and a woman. The guy picks a one level and blazes through it in his first attempt. Was impressive because it wasn't exactly an easy looking level (I believe it was in the savannah world). The woman on the other hand picks her favourite level and repeatedly dies. The editor then cuts to black with something along the lines of "40 attempts later" on the screen where they then show the woman's one attempt where she beats the level. I don't remember if it was ever acknowledged why she liked that particular level if it took her many attempts to beat it.
