Roller Coasters appear in three levels of ''Donkey Kong Country 2''. [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] ride on Roller Coasters in the [[Krazy Kremland]] level, [[Target Terror (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Target Terror]]. Here, they must frequently hop between Roller Coasters before it collapses down a pit. Roller Coasters also appear in [[Rickety Race (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Rickety Race]], where the [[Kong]]s must race and defeat several Klanks. Their final appearance is in [[Haunted Hall]], where the Kongs race on a Roller Coaster during a pursuit from the [[Kackle]]s.

{{Multilang profile
Roller Coasters have an entirely different role in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', and only appear in [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[Mine Cart Ride]] in [[Creepy Castle]]. Unlike their previous appearance, Roller Coasters act as stage hazards. They are summoned by [[Resident Demon]] and carry [[TNT Barrel]]s. Roller Coasters explode upon hitting Donkey Kong, who then loses three [[DK Coin#Donkey Kong 64|coins]].
