Freeze the camera temporarily

Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go through the level Slipside Ride. At the very end, after all obstacles and the two ropes you have to jump back and forth on, there's a downwards rope that I think has the G at top. Climb the rope, either by holding up or jumping off of it and then back on higher up. This is not part of the glitch, but something sorta glitchy to note - once you reach the top and try jumping up further, you won't hold on to the rope and fall through the other side. So, that means that the rope is just hovering there - there is no rope in the upper area off the screen. Anyways, when you get to the top, jump off of the rope to the right as far as you can. The camera will stay on the rope for a long time and then slowly move so that it focuses back on you... pretty unusual.

The camera's stuck looking at this rope for a while... this is the rope you use right before the exit



Freeze the camera freakishly

Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go through the level Oil Drum Alley. Get Rambi who's in a hole by the middle gate... you can spot the hole by a single banana that you jump to. Then, go backwards a bit before the middle gate and you'll find a blast barrel below you resting on some ground. Jump over the barrel area and drop Rambi with the A button. Make sure you land back on the higher land with that jump. Then, jump down and after some tries, you'll land on Rambi at the same time as you land in the barrel. This will freeze the camera, most of the time on the area where you land, but some of the time by the barrel. You can now run off the screen to the right and the camera won't follow you. The oil drums that exist in that area don't block your way and you keep on running until you fall into the ditch where I think you found Rambi. To bring the camera back to you and see a nice view of all the land you covered, push A to get off Rambi. The camera will zoom over to you.

Where'd Donkey and Diddy go? This is the higher platform where you can freeze the camera


The camera's zooming over to where Diddy and Donkey actually are


You can also sometimes get the camera stuck like this

Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go through the level Oil Drum Alley. Get Rambi who's in a hole by the middle gate... you can spot the hole by a single banana that you jump to. Then, go backwards a bit before the middle gate and you'll find a blast barrel below you resting on some ground. Leave Rambi behind and as Donkey Kong, try jumping down next to the barrel. It may take a couple of tries for you to get next to the barrel without going inside of it. If Diddy is still on the ledge above, just jump. Now, this is difficult... it takes many tries. Hit select twice in a row, but don't keep on jamming on the button. If done correctly, you will switch twice and there will be two little bursts in the barrel. Land on the area to the right. If done right, you'll be able to control both Diddy and Donkey Kong. If you do this with Diddy in the beginning, the game will freeze. When you are controlling them both, each can get injured. If one falls into a hole, then you will lose a life. Often Diddy will go farther than Donkey, so to even it out, you can push down and then roll diddy in different directions by pushing Y and left or right (while pushing down).

Now, make Diddy jump onto Rambi. Then, make Donkey jump onto Rambi. The colors will glitch up - Rambi will double, or there may be two Donkeys or Diddys, or one of them may be floating in thin air. Try pressing A or injuring one of the characters and you'll get all sorts of weird outcomes. Sometimes you will even have a badguy attached to you... Diddy once made a badguy appear out of nowhere and hit Diddy. Try experimenting!

Note how both characters are being controlled. And, Diddy's going through the oil drum.

Go to the first level that has carts that ride on the rails. If you don't have both Diddy and DK, bust the barrel to get them. Right at the beginning of the level, there is a barrel that you have to jump into to get shot into the cart. Have Diddy jump right beside the left of the barrel right at the ledge. Turn him so he is facing left, and then switch to DK. if done correctly, one of the two will go onto the barrel and the game will freeze.

Float in the air

Exciting-ness scale: 5? out of 10
Does it work? --> Unconfirmed. We'll check soon.

Go to the first level that has carts that ride on the rails. If you don't have both Diddy and DK, bust the barrel to get them. Jump into the barrel and ride the cart until you get the save point barrel. Once you get the barrel, get hit by anything that will cause one of your characters to die. They will both jump into the air and as soon as they do that, push B and Y together as many times and as fast as you can. You should start floating in the air. As long as you continue to push B and Y over and over again, you will continue to float. It looks like you are jumping in the air. You can jump through the air back and forth through the level, but if you go to the very beginning where you initially start off with the cart, you will fall and die.
