List of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest glitches
These are the glitches found in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
Glitches
Castle Crush Glitch
WARNING: The following glitch can erase files or corrupt game cartridges if performed.
The Castle Crush glitch has become infamous among fans as the series' most fatal glitch. For players brave enough to try it, enter Castle Crush with Diddy Kong as the lead character (Dixie is optional but cannot be the lead character). Pick up the first DK Barrel and hold it against a wall. Drop the barrel and quickly pick it up again; if done correctly, the barrel will break but Diddy will act as if he's still holding it. Upon throwing the "invisible barrel", various things could happen. Commonly the Rambi Barrel will appear and cause Diddy to transform into various things, including a solid black sprite of Kleever or a multi-colored Klubba, to name a few. The effects are short lived though as any attempts to move will result in the game crashing.
The aftermath of the glitch varies. Though some have been lucky to escape with no ill effects, others have reported save data being erased, or the game becoming corrupted to the point of being near unplayable. Therefore, it is wise to avoid this glitch at all cost.
Note: This glitch only works in the Super Nintendo version. It was fixed for the Game Boy Advance and Virtual Console versions.
Honey Glitch
In hive levels, such as Hornet Hole and Rambi Rumble, the Kongs are unable to walk through the sticky honey without getting stuck. However, if the player uses the Team Up move to pick up a monkey, they can walk strait through the honey, without having to jump their way through.
This glitch was also removed in the Virtual Console and Game Boy Advance versions.
