For sure. Unfortunately, I think Tropical Freeze was the spiritual successor of the N64 era DKC’s. I say unfortunately because I found TF to be too linear and not all that fun. What we really need is a Breath of the Wild type Donkey Kong. I think they need to rethink just giving us a traditional side-scroller. C’mon Nintendo, you’re good at thinking outside the box!
Ryu, when an exclamation mark appears in the level's name, that means you got all the bonuses from that level. You skipped some bonuses. I'm pretty sure you need all of them, and the DK coins, to get the true ending.
You don’t need the DK coins for the true ending in DKC2, in DKC3 you do. You do need all the kremcoins tho. And it’s fkn worth it. This game is a DREAM to 100%, every so often I just fire it up and 100% it in one sitting 🥰🦍🍌
For 102% completion on your save file, you need to complete all the bonus rooms (also because you need to get all the Kremkoins to unlock all the levels in The Lost World). You'll see '!' after the level name if you got all the bonus rooms in a level. In The Lost World, each level has only 1 bonus room and it contains the DK coin for that level, so only those DK coins are required (because technically the requirement is to complete the bonus room). Aside from that you need to finish all levels and bosses and also need to visit all the Kongs at least once (Cranky, Funky, Swanky and Wrinkly). EDIT: Corrected error about DK coins because some confusion between true ending and 102% requirements.
@@patrick3876 Of course you need all of them for 102% completion. You however do not in order to get the 2nd fight against K.Rool. Anyway to me, you aren't getting the true ending unless Mario is 2nd place.
Getting all the DK coin just make you number 1 on the podium instead of Mario Only n the bonus games coin are needed to beat the final boss But that the ! at the end of level names indicate that all bonus have been completed
Once the man himself reply a comment of mine on a UA-cam video about him, seems pretty chill on top of being a very gifted composer, his band 009SYSTEM is cool as well
I don't care how long you spread the videos apart, but I want to see more battle kid, dkc2, and starfox 64. Once again, if you read this, you can take as much time as you need between each video for yourself. Thanks for all the things you've done and I hope you can do more retro gaming in the future.
Definitely one of the best games on SNES. The Kongs country games are golden. Some of the best music direction that still stands high above most games made since.
5:55 DKC2 "expert" here: Beating Jungle Jinx does do something valuable for you: beating that level, and getting the DK Coin from the bonus, gets you closer to the 102% clear rate. You also need to beat each level in the Lost World (but not necessarily collect the bonus DK coin) in order to fight the boss of Lost World. Each Lost World level only has one bonus, and the prize is a DK coin. In the original SNES version of the game, when you save and quit, yes, your lives and banana coins reset. They reset anytime you reload a save: this includes beating the final boss, sitting through the credits, and then going back into the save game. Experienced players plan accordingly. However, saving the game does cause some things to persist: your lives and coins won't persist, but the levels you've beaten will persist. As well, any Kong college you've saved at, and any Funky's Flights you've purchased a flight ticket at, do persist when you save. To get out of a world, you have to use Funky's Flights, or beat the world boss again. Protip: You can go back to a previous world to save the game, when you beat a boss for the first time. Before moving on to the next new world, go back to a previous world, save, then catch a Funky's Flight out of there to the new world. If you need banana coins, it's easy to farm them in world 1. You will need to pay 2 banana coins for a Funky's Flight ticket in **each** world, but you only need to pay once per world, assuming you save the game afterwards. Saving the game will almost always be free during your first save in that particular world, but will always cost 2 banana coins thereafter, in that particular world. Plan accordingly, and play smart. Or farm for coins. You can play smart by holding off on saving until you unlocked the world boss, or you're down to your last life, whichever happens first. Yes, I'm a try-hard, oh well. You can use this information as you wish, or disregard it; how you play is up to you. I'm just trying to help.
Hi Ryu, just a tip with the snake. You can "walk off" or fall from a platform with the small bounce the snake does when it walks and then press the jump button to do a midair jump. Will be useful in harder levels with the snake
As a kid, in that dark water level, I remember pausing the game at the exact moment while the fish is turning the light towards the screen, and it makes the screen superbright while paused. Useless but fun 😅😅
Each level has a minimum of one and a maximum of three bonus rooms. Enjoying the series. This was one of my favorites as a kid. I think it holds up, but I'll grant it has so much nostalgia for me that it's possible I can't be objective. Also, shout outs to Wise's soundtrack!
DKC2 is obviously the best DKC game. It has an amazing soundtrack, amazing gameplay. Completing the game is actually useful since it unlocked levels. It is a very satisfying game. For me, it is clearly in the top 5 SNES games.
Very nice! Yes, more Donkey Kong Country 2, Battle Kid, Star Fox 64 and more retro games in general! I was actually nervous this whole video that he wasn't going to save and he would have to do everything all over! I grew up when this game was released so it holds a special place in my gamer's heart and I think it still holds up really well (though, I might be biased due to nostalgia). So in the GBA version of this game, the KONG letters actually _do_ count towards completion, which makes it slightly more challenging. I think the good thing about that version is that I believe it does save your lives and coins if you power down the game, though.
24:22 Some have two, some have three bonuses. Lost World levels only have one. You can tell if you got all the bonuses in a level if its name on the world map has an exclamation point after it.
Enguarde is a blue swordfish and an Animal Friend who appears mostly in the Donkey Kong Country series. As an aquatic creature, Enguarde appears in many underwater areas. With his sharp, pointed bill, he can defeat many underwater enemies, which the Kongs cannot do by themselves.
@@itserico my little kid logic, from watching movies and cartoons, taught me you say enguarde while sword fighting. and he's a sword fish so it makes sense :3
Every single level I'm like "God damn DKC2 really is the best OST in gaming history" and then POW. Stickerbrush Symphony, idiot, you ain't heard NOTHIN yet.
I played this game to death as a kid back in 95. Then when Nintendo E-Shop was a thing, I bought the DKC trilogy again, and they've become a bi-annual tradition for me. So will I watch someone play this game that has no surprises for me now? Yes. Yes I will :)
One of my favorite games ever! Prob my favorite 2D platformer. Godly music, still looks great, and just so atmospheric. Would love for you to complete it all, including all of the bonus world!
By all means, continue until the end! The reason why you couldn't figure out how to leave Krazy Kremland is that there actually was no way back. It was part of the challenge of the DKC games that you had to fight your way to Kong Kollege or Funky's Flights first, or all your progress would be lost. That's why we had farmed Balloons in world 1 every time before we entered a new world in the Olde Times... (BTW just loved how you first-tried Black Ice Battle only to die multiple times because of the bonus 😂)
When you threw Dixie and she sits crying you can go back to her and she'll join you again. And that death you couldn't remember where it was was for sure a glitch.
This game has aged so well, still one of my absolute favorites, would absolutely love for you to continue and beat this game, it definitely gets more difficult!
How much Cranky charges in his museum is usually an indicator of how good the secret is. Anything worth 2 or 3 is worth buying. All the secrets in the Lost World are worth buying as they lead you to the DK coin in that level.
I spent an embarrassing amount of time mastering Star Fox 64. The mechanics, AND the music was totally worth it!! to watch you play through my favorite [...Abandoned...] Nintendo IP would be an absolute treat, and I very much look forward to it!!
Okay Ryu, so a little tip regarding Rattly the Snake's movement You know when you press right or left in your controller and Rattly will do a small bounce? Well, after said small bounce, Rattly can still jump in the air with the B button. Its useful for reaching higher areas without having to do the super jump; 1: like in the bonus where you have to collect stars, Or 2: if you do it over a pit you can do something similar to Diddy's Cartwheel jump to get the DK coin; both examples in the Rattle Battle stage This movement tip shall be useful in the later, and harder stages with Rattly. Hope it helps.
Rattle Battle was a gaming moment for me as a kid. Jumping from barrel to barrel to barrel to get across that last gap took me absolutely ages to get right. Way harder than Kudgel for a world boss!
I love this game and I'll certainly watch every piece of content you bring out featuring it. To me it's one of the best 2D platformers ever made and a strong contender for one of the best games overall (although nostalgia certainly plays a role in that assessment). Despite the brilliant level design and perfect OST, I love all the little details (e.g. in the honeycomb levels if you're stuck to a wall and idle a little, the monkeys start eating the honey). It's clearly made with so much love and inspiration, it's hard not to adore it. In terms of completion, I would strongly suggest that you prioritize finding the bonus levels and getting the Krem coins because those unlock additional stages and eventually the true ending. The secret levels are amazing and very creative, they often feature gimmicks not seen anywhere else in the game and should be experienced. The DK coins are nice secrets to find, but they only count towards percentage completion and don't unlock anything.
30:08 Just take a look at the graphics of DKC2, the game looks crazy good, especially when you realize this game was released in 1995, almost 30 years ago. I played all the DKC games on the SNES when I was young (I was 9 years old). About 2 weeks ago I played DKC1+2+3 again. Nostalgic game. Being young was great.
This is my all-time favorite version of donkey Kong country and I used to play this on my game boy advance in the early 2000s and still to this day play it from time to time
This is the best 2D platformer ever made and in a very large amount of people's opinion, it's the greatest video game ever made. David Wise is a genius, classic Rare at their best. Defining Donkey Kong experience that ups the greatness from the first game in every way. Hope to see you get all the DK Coins and get through Kluba's island.
One of my favorite games and series of all time. I consistently listen to the beautiful tracks composed by David Wise while working, programming, or whatever.
It holds incredibly well, dkc2 is as good as I remember, intruduced the most famous (and best in my humble opinion) music track of the series, stickerbrush symphony, great level design and visuals for the era all around and reasonably difficulty. I would love to see the entire DKC SNES trilogy on this channel.
This game is definitely a masterpiece not only for its soundtrack, but for the visuals which still look amazing considering they're on a 30+ year old hardware. It's definitely a tough one, though. I look forward to seeing you go further with this and Battle Kid, no matter how often you get to upload new vids.
I got stuck on one of the later honey levels for years as a kid! I like the atmosphere of the original DKC much more. There was a great sense of wonder in the natural environment. This is still fun. It also feels really slippery and the resolution is very small. The characters take up so much of the screen. The amount of space you can see in the level feels very limited. Still love it!
Mischief Makers on the N64 is a super-underrated platformer that’s a ton of fun to play and features some pretty unique mechanics. I found it by accident as a kid, and loved it ever since. I feel like it would be hella fun to watch you play. Loving the DKC2 content either way, though.
I am waiting for the day that Ryukahr plays the greatest SNES platformer of all time: PLOK! Criminally underappreciated. So much fun. And eventually the game gets to be an absolute beast.
This trilogy has aged pretty well IMO. The only thing I wish could be changed is resetting your lives and Banana Coins whenever you save and quit, potentially leaving you in a dangerous world with just 5 lives and no money. it's interesting seeing someone new try to get through such an acclaimed yet difficult game- Krazy Kremland/World 4 is where things get truly intense.
This game definitely holds it own. In fact, all DKC games are instant classics and will always be appreciated in my opinion. It certainly reminds me when I used to play them growing up.
Starfox 64 is like top 3 games for the 64. I got 100 games in my colletion now and its always a go to! Play a full single player run taking all the bonus routes. Maybe try deathless or 3 life campaign because your so crazy!!! Good Luck sir! Cant wait to see it! loving the retro games series atm!
If it hasn’t been mentioned, yes the game did reset your lives and banana coins. This happens every time you reload your save file for some reason. If playing on Switch Online use save states to avoid this
If there's one legitimate criticism about "Slime Climb", it's that the background cloud layer should have been synced with the water level (aka. the water's not rising so much as the _ship is sinking)._
"This reminds me of, uh, Donkey Kong Country 1"
- Ryu, on Donkey Kong Country 2
the funny thing is I always say the same thing. Its the only level in the game with a vibe of the first DKC
I do not want this series to end. Would live to see DKC 3 too
Yes, please! DKC 3!!
For sure. Unfortunately, I think Tropical Freeze was the spiritual successor of the N64 era DKC’s. I say unfortunately because I found TF to be too linear and not all that fun.

David Wise is a genius in music department in video game history.Awesome soundtrack in DKC2.

Once the man himself reply a comment of mine on a UA-cam video about him, seems pretty chill on top of being a very gifted composer, his band 009SYSTEM is cool as well
Wizards & Warriors on NES is sooo good, also by David Wise and RARE
Best game soundtrack of all time
I think it’s aged perfectly, graphics and music are some of the best also
Ryu at every level: "Wow I love this song"

Or 2: if you do it over a pit you can do something similar to Diddy's Cartwheel jump to get the DK coin; both examples in the Rattle Battle stage
This movement tip shall be useful in the later, and harder stages with Rattly.
Hope it helps.

Starfox 64 is one of my all-time favorites! Can't wait to watch you play it
Always follow the bananas and head to where you think you can't go for secrets and DK coins.
except in the maze bonus levels underwater in the swamp - where the bananas literally are only in dead ends
This game 100% holds up. Right up there with SMW, and I love that you're playing through it!
DKC2 is very nostalgic for me. I love it

This game blew my mind when I was a child. One of my top 5 games of all time
Definitely wanna see Battle Kid.
Also would love to see some SNES games like Final Fight 2 and Jurassic Park.
This game definitely holds it own. In fact, all DKC games are instant classics and will always be appreciated in my opinion. It certainly reminds me when I used to play them growing up.
Say it with me everyone, more F-Zero GX!

Starfox 64 is like top 3 games for the 64. I got 100 games in my colletion now and its always a go to!
Play a full single player run taking all the bonus routes. Maybe try deathless or 3 life campaign because your so crazy!!!
Good Luck sir! Cant wait to see it! loving the retro games series atm!
The way kudgel jumps look like Randy Orton posin
If it hasn’t been mentioned, yes the game did reset your lives and banana coins. This happens every time you reload your save file for some reason. If playing on Switch Online use save states to avoid this
Ryu: “I have no lives”
Also Ryu: “I don’t want Kong Letters”
LaterRyu: "I need these Kong letters after all"
Ohh nooooo that glitch right at the beginning of the video haha
The fish in the dark level used to flash the screen white, and I'm so happy they fixed that.
DK COUNTRY! I would live to see you do this whole game, especially that stupid wasp level near the end! Was my nemesis as a kid.
If there's one legitimate criticism about "Slime Climb", it's that the background cloud layer should have been synced with the water level (aka. the water's not rising so much as the _ship is sinking)._
I just want regular uploads on this channel. This stuff is my favorite content from ryu.
I'm here for the retro! Love seeing you take on the DKC2
This game absolutely stands the test of time .a true classic 👌🏻
DKC2 Always holds up, it is a timeless side scrolling classic. BEST DKC game imo, let alone SNES sidescroller.
34:13 F**k yeah! Enemies take longer to despawn offscreen than items do.
I've missed it, I'm really glad to see how well the last dkc2 performed. Hope you eventually get into 3
3:53 WHAT WAS THAT MR KAHR LMAOOO
Never played starfox64 so I’ll enjoy that video. It’s nice to mix it up and come back to previous game, but up to you. Thanks for your videos!
