Okay fuck this game. I've been savestating my way through this piece of shit just to see what was in there (it has far too many shitty poorly designed bits with terrible collision detection to play through normally - if it wasn't one-hit kills with no Diddy and no rolling attack i might be able to forgive that), but I've come up against a boss that apparently can't be defeated due to a glitch - you can only jump on it once, then it just kills you instantly. theres a barrel on the previous screen which was probably supposed to appear on the boss screen, but it doesn't, and you can't go back and get it.

so, what i'm saying is if anyone could possibly come up with a cheat code to get round this (say, just kill the thing instantly, or always give DK a barrel or something) you'd be as awesome as this game isn't.

I thought noone could stop mr domino? I guess the rumors were untrue after all.

I don't know if this will doo, cause I didn't test it on all the bosses, just the first 2.

Kill boss in one hit:
FF00D0:0001

For retro codes I suggest posting requests on gshi.org foorums. There's a few hackers there that still like to make codes for old platforms.

there's only one thing that can stop me, and that's shoddy pirate programming.

but the code works! (on that particular boss you have to change :0001 to :0000, but it still works!) thanks!!

edit: and this is what the ending looks like.

seriously that's it. there's a tune in the background. nothing else. you'd think it could at least say "the end" above them, or "presented by super new monkey game, all rights reserved" or something.

edit2: from looking through the rom it seems like there was supposed to be a conversation between the two of them, goes something like this:

*: WOW!!.... IT'S ALL OVER NOW!

*: AND WHAT SHOULD WE DO NOW DONKEY?

*: OH..... LET ME THINK

*: OH! YA!

*: WHAT!? DONKEY

*: SEE YOU AGAIN!!

*: SEE YOU!

...but that doesn't show up. whether its an emulation issue, or a bug in the actual game (it obviously wasn't tested to the end, after all) or it was omitted intentionally, i dunno.

I wanted to see that ending for myself but got stuck on a snow level. Theres a barrel that looks like its gonna shoot you to the next platform but instead you miss it by maybe a pixel. You should post that epic ending, complete with boss battle (unless its the broken one) on youtube.

i would, but i really don't have the patience to beat the final boss without cheating (it's king k. rool, he throws his crown at you, but it seems to be impossible to jump over it without dying, so.)

if you want to see it for yourself, though, have some savestates:

gs8 is after defeating the final boss, gs9 is the start of the battle.
