The '''Nintendo Coin''' is a silver [[coin]] with the [[Nintendo 64]] logo on it in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. It resembles the [[Silver Coin]]s from ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. To obtain the Nintendo Coin, [[Donkey Kong]] must play the original [[Donkey Kong (game)|''Donkey Kong'']] arcade game in [[Frantic Factory]]. After completing it once, Donkey Kong earns a [[Golden Banana]], and [[Squawks]] appears in the room. When talked to, Squawks informs Donkey Kong that he can win a special prize by playing it again for two [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]]s. The second playthrough is more difficult, requiring the second level to be completed with only one life (though an [[extra life]] can be earned by getting 10,000 [[point]]s like in the actual arcade game); the reward is the Nintendo Coin, which replaces [[Pauline]] at the top of the stage.


After the player beats the old [[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong arcade machine]] in [[Frantic Factory]], [[Squawks the Parrot]] will appear and tell Donkey Kong to play the game again to win a special prize. After paying to coins the player can use the arcade machine again, this time though instead of rescuing [[Pauline]] the player will humorously have to rescue the Nintendo Coin. The games difficulty also increases, so player must be extra careful.
The Nintendo Coin and the [[Rareware Coin]] are required to retrieve the final [[Boss Key]] located behind a door in [[Hideout Helm]].
