Hello and welcome back to my Donkey Kong 64 101% full game walkthrough! Today, we'll be playing Diddy Kong, tackling both some stuff on DK Isles and in Fungi Forest. We'll also be talking about a collectable so hidden it took 17 years to be found.

Yo guys, made an editing mistake around 20:10 and cut out a cutscene. I meant to just cut out my commentary track, umm whoops. I'll splice that little cutscene into the next episode, sorry about that gang.

[@the_shiny_wartortle_8913]

no problem that can happen sometimes.

[@ryanbrook8384]

I'm pretty sure I found that one, but didn't know it was unknown.

[@JJ24x7]

All good my dude! Great content, love it! Keep it up! We all make mistakes :)

[@AwesomeFelix94]

You're forgiven, Scykoh

[@SecretScubaSteve]

Yay! comments!

[@eerjoker]

Diddy's ability to T-Pose Double Backflip is beyond human comprehension

[@eerjoker]

Specially when he does the xtreme planking in the air

[@adamnakamura8003]

*D O R I M E*

[@hunteraxton450]

Agreed

[@mayro4803]

Chonky T pose spins.

[@jvpro2076]

I can half flip

[@chriscorey8481]

Man, this episode was totally made for me! Rolls everywhere! And, yes, Scykoh did cartwheel more than 100 times this episode. DK Roll Count: This Episode: 0 Total: 287 Diddy Cartwheel Count: This Episode: 144 Total: 333 Tiny Roll Count: This Episode: 0 Total: 220 Lanky Long Jump Count: This Episode: 0 Total: 143 Chunky Long Jump Count: This Episode: 0 Total: 101

Scykoh: *feels bad for Klaptraps getting hit by watermelons* Also Scykoh: *doesn't feel bad for fairies being eaten alive*

[@refi64]

To be fair, they're going out of their way to go in front of the Klaptraps...

[@Tuschi17]

Literally just finished episode 21. I'm thoroughly enjoying this series.

[@sirkredrum3406]

When I first heard about the secret 2017 rainbow coin, I was like "The dirt piles actually have something?!" Didn't know about rainbow coins as a kid, because you don't need them to get all the upgrades.

[@klinkskii]

"Geez I'm really running out of crystal coconuts" I mean it's not like you skipped them constantly

[@zacharyleloux4988]

I remember that dirt patch making history! I hope to never forget it and always go back to it on playthroughs. I was one of the ones that didn't know it was there. Thanks Scykoh! It feels like you had to cover that so thanks for doing so.

[@gyletre675]

honestly, if the fairies did not want to get eaten they would just fly over the crocodiles

[@samwilson2893]

Unless there was a bug zapper on the other side. Then I couldn’t really blame them lol.

[@gyletre675]

@@samwilson2893 true

[@GamingKingdom91]

Scykoh: *doesnt blame squaks for making him fall...* Also scykoh: *blames squaks for being half useful* Also i love scykohs little 'hehe' type giggles..they're so joyful dude

[@leviathan1173]

Owl: I don't speak to anyone without wings. That's wingcist...

[@Willy-tt6ez]

I was one of those kids that loved to bomb, shoot, whatever object in a game to see if there was a secret and so I knew the secrets of the dirt pads, but remember it being like an obvious thing (of course it wasn't). Was super surprised to find out it wasn't common knowledge. 10 year old me wasn't so stupid after all.

[@tylerreyes8225]

This has by far been my favorite series, thanks for letting me relive my childhood through these videos! Much love, keep up the awesome work!

[@leviathan1173]

Why does Scykoh like Fungi Forest? Because he's a *FUN GUY*

[@majinx2shorts]

stop.

[@TotalFreakZoid]

BA DUM TISH

[@hunteraxton450]

.................... oh okay

[@gawbe]

nice

[@diamondjub2318]

where is the roll counter person?

[@assassinblackop]

This series is going faster than expected. Such a huge game but I think there's less than 12 episodes left!

[@pick_nark]

It's so cool when a 20+ year old game has a new discovery. The devs were pretty sneaky hiding that patch there.

[@gregdubya1993]

When I did my externship for my UG computer science degree we snuck into our delivered program a hidden disabled label object with white text that said "Deez Nuts". I wonder if anyone ever found it.

[@ThoracJunaut]

9:20 "So anyways i started shooting mah peanuts and blasting"

[@chocolatekake]

There's some incredib-owl voice acting in this episode Scykoh, well done!

[@IamaPERSON]

Agreed, it was a real hoot!

[@brittanyr.7476]

I hope the payoff to the running joke of Tiny never getting a thumbnail is that she gets the thumbnail for the last episode. Loving this series, as always!

[@RiiViiMedia2424]

Or too tiny to be in a thumbnail.

[@tormentor91]

I have seen a human do a double backflip like Diddy Kong. Maybe not nearly as high (keep in mind, video game gravity is a joke compared to ours) but argubaly more impressive than what Diddy did.

[@mezium]

The backflips hit maximum matrix mode in the long fall! That's super funny!

[@samanosuke_the_oni]

I remember struggling so much as a kid with the dark ledge section. The camera angles made it so difficult!

[@frankymass]

This is hands down the best owl impression I've heard!

[@Fernandezrayg]

I actually found that little dirt spot in that fungi area when I was little. I noticed it while walking just as you did to show where it was. I remember assuming it was that dirty pile and just doing that slam attack and bam!! Rainbow coin! 😳😳Crazy to think no one knew that until a few years ago lol

[@Antimatter999]

Same here, lol. Never would've thought Thad it wasn't common knowledge.

[@kevinkaslana9060]

Same, I dunno how I found that as a kid! Looking back makes me realize how hidden this was and wish I knew about this back in the day.

[@GoGoSqueezeWorksToo]

During the first barrel mini game "PPP" made me think WAY back to Pokemon Crystal and "Togepipi"

[@scottdreemurrthegodofcreation]

Fun fact that dirt pile was easy to find if had the official game guide like i had back when the game was still relevant during the n64 era

[@goomba0522]

Dude, this took 17 years?! Epico!

[@thebigbean8783]

I love when instead of gold bananas there were mini games. Very fun to play almost all of them

[@Ryu_D]

Thank you for the episode.

[@gerardoperez3057]

The anxiety that I got when you were about to fall off while getting the fourth banana was HUMONGOUS 🤌🏽🤣

[@Jsuelieta]

22:20 Misheard dialogue: "We have to walk very carefully on these darn raptors". Imagining Diddy tip-toeing over the backs of a bunch of sleeping Jurassic Park raptors.

[@gemship]

A hint for the pitch black areas of the game when you shoot your weapon it creates light. Using that light in the dark areas can really help.

[@via3600]

Diddy kong is amazing I know I said it before, but I love the voices and sound effects in this game So good

[@tailtactics1681]

The first few notes of Fungi Forest (Day) sped up a bit is the same tone as when Link finds a treasure chest

[@Kinra_Jade]

16:02 I forgot to mention it sooner but i used to so the same with Diddy's wheels aka interrupting mid-animation with a jump. I liked how to it sped up to get him quickly on his feet. 18:51 Hm, i dunno. I used to shockwave from time to time just for the sake of it but i don't have a clear memory of finding this coin... I might have though since it sounds familiar to me and it wouldn't be crazy of me to shockwave on these high grasses by whim. I dunno...

[@botmaster9000]

I think that I might have actually found the dirt patch on my own long ago!

[@Skunginoggin345]

The homing peanuts remind me of flamin' hot Cheetos.

[@matthewcorrie3324]

I can't unsee this now thanks.

[@flameguy21]

Crazy that something like that can be found 17 years after release. Really makes me wonder what else we're missing in other games.

[@IamaPERSON]

Same

[@Leozcar]

6:03 "I don't speak to anyone without wings" Well, that's just heavy discrimination

[@HydroXYZ1]

It’s crazy how it look like snide has hair when in actuality it’s his welding helmet

[@dogryme6]

I feel like I did get that DK Dirt hidden in the grass! It seemed odd walking over a bump in the grass, and if it's on the ground all you can try is the shockwave or ground-pounds.

[@MagicRectangle60002]

I bet theres multiple other hidden dirt piles yet to be discovered.

[@nick0888]

The boss fight in this area is pretty good

[@Gilgwathir]

I always wondered what was up with the ground it that spot where the hidden dirt patch is. But I just figured it was a bug and moved on - lol.

[@pandorasangel2747]

18:50 I actually found that on my own years ago because I was a dumb kid who liked spamming that move xD

[@themossfederation]

133 - That's Eevee's dex number.

[@TheAlexAnimator1]

That Owl Is ALWAYS Watching...

[@Moonblushaphantomine]

Yay, my fav kong in one of the best levels ever! Also why the owl doing ring things and not pestering Link?

[@eerjoker]

The secret is finally revealed!! Imagine believing you completed a game 100% and, 17 years later, turns out you just didn't!

[@Sky77E4]

Crouch sliding reminds me of ground pounding in BK

[@connor_860]

I always fail the owl course the first time around because I forget to hold a or z.

[@nick0888]

U know doing a cartwheel and jumping twice u can do the triple jump with diddy quick

[@michaelfritz5816]

Yeah. Even as a kid, I had no idea about this. Until it was revealed.

[@raccoonpeddler6730]

i think i remember there being a lump under the grass there and i just thought it was a bug

[@Artemis-ey4lw]

i found the dirt pile specifically because i wanted to get everything and was too dumb to find all the bananas with every kong. i spent a very long time on this level

[@DavidWalker-mx4mx]

I accidentally found the hidden coin in this stage when I was a kid. I thought the coin fell out of the sky lol

[@steffenbruni8024]

Hey Scykoh, if Covid-19 ends someday do you think you will be visiting germany any time for events like "Gamescon"? It would be absolut awesome to finally meet the man behind the voice! 😄

[@ShackleYT]

i think my old prima strategy guide talked about that hidden secret... prima got something right that the internet got wrong for 17 years....wow...

[@NathanOfADown]

didddy go

[@TheSpudThing]

Do you think the DK dirt patches were made by Dirty Kong?

[@Cgeta4]

I wonder who the fun guy is in the Fun Guy Forest

[@PepeMetallero]

You lied to me you crud, i pressed F the last episode

[@PALGAMER630]

Ha. I had a feeling Donkey was going to be last played. :3

[@leviathan1173]

I honestly wonder if there's anyone who discovered the hidden dirt patch by randomly releasing a shockwave without noticing the slight rise in height.

[@gawbe]

I like to think that some kid just smashed every inch of that area, not knowing what to do yet.

[@fredrikorex]

I figured out the dirt patch was there as a kid but I never knew you could smash them for coins so I just thought it was a weird thing to hide.

[@hunteraxton450]

I doubt that you would ever play these games but i would love to see you 100% the kingdom hearts series

[@theninjaofmusic]

I doubt he would do the whole series. But one of the games is very possible

[@hunteraxton450]

Yeah but idiots can dream right

[@theninjaofmusic]

@@hunteraxton450 they can lol

[@hunteraxton450]

Yea

[@btf_flotsam478]

19:01 It would have been great if you discovered it during the playthrough though.

[@allystarla]

I made the same face as the guy in the thumbnail unintentionally when it was the first thing that popped up opening KZbin

[@Stairway2Devin]

Not sure what it is but I cannot beat the spider mini boss with Tiny or this stupid freaking owl with Diddy!

[@DetournementArc]

Wait... doesn't Donkey need it to be night to access his section of the barn?

[@nick0888]

yep, in that thorny area is a banana for DK.

[@ShinySwalot]

I think a part got cut out at like 20:13 ? Was that intentional because of a sneeze or something similar?

[@ScykohPlays]

That was an editing goof, whoops. :(

[@ShinySwalot]

@@ScykohPlays np man, it happens! Having a blast with this series ^^

[@Kagringames]

Sorry if someone mentioned this is a previous video, but aren't the guys holding the blueprints called Krushas?

[@kevinkaslana9060]

No, they're called Kasplats.

[@KornersquaredMike]

Double backflippers on Instagram on solid ground. Checkmate diddy . Aaronmichael Tannerwitt Lublub And nickfrytricking

[@Lopoi]

How was that dirt more hidden that the bananas out of bound?

[@jvpro2076]

Its called humanity

[@leviathan1173]

20:13 That was an odd cut, why didn't he show the cutscene?

[@ScykohPlays]

It was a super goof, I normally cut out my commentary track during cutscenes but it seems I somehow managed to just cut the entire scene and not notice, crud.

[@phoenixleague7821]

Little fun fact the mini games announcer does not say "bonus stage" he says "bonus stake"

[@RY01CH1]

B O N U S S T E A K

[@SuperWahoo17]

Who found that secret dirt mound?

[@leviathan1173]

Hey Scykoh, if you see this, I've been wondering: why is 15 the best number?

[@phoenixleague7821]

15 may be the best number but 23 is number 1

[@Lar_me]

I think it's his birthday, unless I'm remembering incorrectly.

[@Falkuzrules]

The story I've heard is that it somehow came from him constantly joking during ancient Twitch streams that only 15 people were watching at any given time.

[@arsiameinsohnio]

mhhhh .... bananus

[@TheOmegaDragon]

Never knew that the rainbow coin was in the grass. How was anybody supposed to know it's there when the patch of dirt was hidden from sight?

[@georgewalker3702]

Because Rare is like that.

[@michaelhaverbusch9142]

My pikachu has 277 speed

[@Spongeyknight6491]

I have asteroids on a TV plug in aatari. lava

[@bonjouravecuns]

why 15 is the best number?

[@WTFMANify]

First try, but not necessarily first shot

[@andrewshirley9240]

20:10 Uhhhh. Is there a clip missing here? Oops.

[@ScykohPlays]

Yeah, there's a clip missing, darn it me. :(

[@chauniqueogarro]

10:18 I can't tell if Scykoh just wanted to say "banana" funny or if that is a Bananya reference.

[@matthewk8448]

I knew about that dirt pile I'm surprised that I was one of a couple of people that knew of it

Same here.
