    Fun fact, as a former speed runner of DK 64 101% the secret to Beaver bother is actually mashing B as fast as possible. You gotta really freaking mash others wise you gonna be stuck awhile. Think of it as those Mario party mini games haha. I hope I helped some of you😅

    I love figuring out little tricks for some of the Bonus Barrel games. Some like Searchlight Seek and Big Bug Bash are interesting to me. All you would really need to do is keep your flyswatter/melon cannon focused near where you last hit your target, and it'll respawn close by and head in the same spot where the last target was killed.

    Krazy Kong Klamour is actually one of the worst bonus stages if you're on Wii U virtual console
    Because the game was designed with the slowdown of N64 hardware in mind, it's impossible when sped up without save states.

    My favorite bonus stage is one you didn't discuss: Speedy Swing Sortie. Fairly simple, but so fun to quickly swing through the vines and grabbing coins. Regrettably, it is only played twice, which is a shame since there is a dummied out third variant which requires you to not only swing on vines to collect coins, but also avoid zingers flying around too. It would have been a fun challenge if it remained in.

    Thanks to the "tag anywhere" mod, I tried Busy Barrel Barrage with Lanky and Tiny. Turns out, Lanky can't play it because his gun is too long and you have to be really good at shooting before the enemies get close. Tiny can't play because the arrows get stuck in the wall, and more objects create more lag.

    Minecart Mayhem with three minecarts would be impossible too often. Just imagine a situation where each cart is each of the three tracks, thus they're all aligned. An impenetrable wall you can't dodge around, because switching would still put you in the path of a bomb. That's it, you don't need any AI on the carts at all, just put them looped. That's all you need to make the game totally impossible, and it would come up enough that folk would totally refund the game if they could.

    Minecart Mayhem is mechanically similar to an old Atari 2600 game called Dodge 'Em, or a TI-99/4A game called Car Wars. The major gameplay differences were that you had to run over all the dots instead of surviving for a period of time, and you could change two lanes if you wanted.

    I was definitely excited when I saw this video pop up. If there’s one thing the game definitely delivers on is the wide variety of bonus stage minigames.
    I already know which ones will be on the worst list. So I won’t mention those here. Lol
    Busy barrel barrage and mad maze maul are probably my favorite minigames in the whole game. Not joking when I say I could replay both of them like 30 times and I wouldn’t get bored. Maybe MMM is a little too easy because your just taking out enemies. Who doesn’t love bashing some Kremlings though? Lol
    Stealthy snoop is definitely another good one. It’s a shame that one only got two in the whole game. Similar to Mad Maze Maul.
    Totally agree with you there. The Hideout Helm minigames games were actually super fun and a refreshing thing to see. Like using Rambi to demolish a bunch of Kritters just feel so damn fun. 😂

    I actually don't mind Beaver Bother too much. The two back-to-back in Creepy Castle kinda sucked though. It feels very gratifying when you get them to fall in, but I will say that 60 seconds for 15 beavers is pretty tough. I feel like you should've been given more time OR 12 should be the hard variant. Oh well.
    Also, I don't think Krazy Kong Klamour is too bad of a name- I don't know if I would've ever thought KKK until seeing people say it on the internet lmao But everyone mentions it, so maybe I'm just dumb.
    I love the Minecart bonus rooms! I have some very old memories of SUCKING at Chunky's in the first level lol But on my most recent playthrough, I had a lot of fun. Three TNT barrels would've been crazy hard, dude.

Growing up, I always wanted to know what it was like to do each of them, but I think one of my family members had taken those Bananas before I could even reach the minecart stage, and I couldn't quite reach the one for Diddy as a kid, so I just waited til I was an adult playing on emulator to see for myself.

Yes, that counts the Minecraft Mayhem and Splish-Splash Salvage. I remember how disappointed I was when none of those mini-games were unlocked by Snide.
