Defeating K. Rool

    After collecting the Rare Ware coin, Nintendo coin, and 100 golden bananas; freeing K. Lumsy; and completed Hideout Helm, you will get access to the final battle with K. Rool. You have to fight in a boxing ring and hit K. Rool four times with each Kong, with round times of three minutes. If you lose any of these rounds, you have to start over at Donkey.
  • Donkey: With Donkey, K. Rool will jump up and slam the ground, causing shock waves, like Kasplat. Four barrels will appear. Jump into one of them and fire at K. Rool when he lifts his arm and yells “Thank You” to the audience. Do this four times.
  • Diddy: With Diddy, K. Rool will throw his boxing glove. This is hard to avoid on the ground, but easy once you have got into the Rocket Barrel. Once in the Rocket Barrel, fire peanuts at the targets on the four lights at the top of the ring. Hit him with all four lights.
  • Lanky: With Lanky, K. Rool will have a light fixture stuck on his head. All he can do is run around the ring. Four numbered switches will appear outside the ring. Run to where you can get a clear shot, then press B to push in the number. A barrel will appear next to Lanky outside the ring. Press B to pick it up, then throw it into the middle of the ring. A giant banana peel will appear out of the barrel. Four trombone pads will appear on the ground in the ring. Stand on a trombone, then wait until K. Rool is a straight line away from you. Play the trombone, then K. Rool will run at you from where he is standing. If your timing is good, he will trip on the banana peel. Do this four times.
  • Tiny: With Tiny, K. Rool will pound the ground as he did with Donkey. Wait until he pounds the ground a few times, then he will start yelling in pain. A barrel will appear. Turn small, then run into the hole in his left shoe. Inside, you will have your feather bow. His toes will attack in patterns. Watch them and when one wiggles, it is going to attack. When a toe rises, fire the crossbow at it. Once you hit it enough times, it will turn red. Get into his shoe and make all four toes red.
  • Chunky: This is the last battle and is a little more complicated than the rest. K. Rool will turn invisible and bounce from rope to rope, but you will still see his shadow. Hit the switch and four Chunky pads will appear. Press Z on one to become invisible, then jump into the barrel to become big Chunky. You have to have very good timing to do this. The first two times K. Rool will just run at you. Primate Punch him (hold Z and press B) just as he approaches, and you will hit him. The third time, he will be invisible. Primate Punch him again. The fourth time, he will be invisible and swerve back and forth. If you hit him, you win.
