Donkey Kong Country Secrets (GameBoy Color)

Donkey Kong Country (Super Donkey Kong in Japan) is a video game developed by Rare and Nintendo, featuring the popular arcade character, Donkey Kong. It was released for the SNES and Super Famicom in 1994. In this game, Donkey Kong has to recover his stolen hoard of bananas from King K. Rool and the Kremlings. His banana hoard was located just in a cave underneath his house. He has the special help of his nephew and best buddy, Diddy Kong, who idolizes DK. Cranky Kong lends some advice along the way. Funky Kong and Candy Kong also lend a hand. It was also the first time Donkey Kong's home environment, Donkey Kong Island, was established.

The game was revolutionary in that it was one of the first games for a mainstream home video game console to use pre-rendered 3-D graphics. It was a technique that was also used in Rare's Killer Instinct. Many later 3-D video games would also use pre-rendered 3-D together with fully 3-D objects. Rare took significant financial risks in purchasing the expensive SGI equipment used to render the graphics. Both Nintendo and Rare refer to the technique for the creating the game's graphics as "ACM" (Advanced Computer Modeling)

Secrets

Play Hard Mode
After you get a perfect game (81%) by playing every bonus level, getting all the coins at Candy's and beating all levels, you can play hard mode by turning DK barrels off in options. This way you can get some more %.

Stop & Go Station Level Skip
Just as in Donkey Kong Country SNES, when you enter the level go back to the entrance. You will be warped to the end of the level.
