Well, this final video got nasty...but it was so worth it in the end! We're at 103%!
All maps by Tropicon.
What the heck am I doing back at K3 in the beginning of this video? Turns out, you're supposed to press Left on the Control Pad at Blizzard's Base Camp to access Glacial Grotto. This should allow you to get an easy-to-miss Banana Bird.
All right, back to Krematoa.
Swoopy Salvo
Bonus areas: Three (3)
Remember Swoopy from way back in Kremwood Forest? Well, Swoopy is back with a whole army, because why not? You'll be using Swoopys as platforms in some areas, but you'll also have to avoid some as well. You'll also be playing through the first half of the stage as Squawks, and just because you're able to fly around and spit eggs at enemies doesn't mean this is going to be easy.
The first bonus area is shortly after the K. When you grab it, go down. Here, you'll be Dixie and Kiddy. Bounce off the backs of the Swoops to get to the top and grab the first Bonus Coin.
Just before the "No Squawks" Sign, you will want to go up and to the left. A red Buzz will be flying around in a circle, and if you get in the center of that circle, you'll reach the second Bonus Area. Avoid the lone Swoopy as you grab fifteen bananas for the second Bonus Coin.
Shortly after the "No Squawks" Sign, Koin will be to the left. Grab the steel keg, then get above Koin to stand on Koin's shield and throw the steel keg to the left. You'll get the DK Coin. You can only get here by way of the second bonus area.
Just before the rope ladder that leads to the N, jump up and left and bounce off a Swoopy in the middle of the area where the Swoopys drop downto reach the final bonus area in the game. This one is dead simple for the very last one: tag throw Dixie to get all 20 stars. Congratulations, you now have every bonus area in the game completed.
Rocket Rush
Bonus areas: None
Once you have all the Bonus Coins in Krematoa grabbed, head back to Boomer's Bomb Shelter so you can access this level. There are no bonus areas here, amazingly, and you must complete every bonus area in the game if you want to get in here.
The stage starts with you getting into a rocket. From here, you will drop down, and you will gain quite a bit of speed. Use your retro rocket sparingly to slow down keep from using your fuel up, and pick up every fuel can on the way down or else you will not make it on the way back up. You can also use the retro rockets to torch the red Buzzes and turn them ash black on the way down
After you make your way down enough, you'll come across the Star Barrel. Once you hit it, it will be time to make your way up. You can hit the walls to slow yourself down, but if you do that, you will lose fuel. You can do it no more than twice without failing this part, and if you lose all your fuel, you will crash back down into the ground and lose a life regardless of whether you have both Kongs or not. You may have to hit the wall at least once on the final turn so you can get to the end safely.
Once you make it to the end, you'll see the goal, but grab the steel keg first and go left to meet Koin. Grab the steel keg, then stand underneath him, jump up and throw the steel keg over Koin at the top of your jump. You'll get the DK Coin.
Knautilus
Once you insert the last Gold Gear into the machine at Boomer's Bomb Shelter, you'll finally turn the water into lava and reveal the Knautilus, where you will face Baron K. Roolenstein again.
Avoid jumping into the air while avoiding the fireballs so you don't get zapped, then grab the steel keg into the vacuum in the ceiling. You will have to time it so that the steel keg hits the Baron's backpack copter on the way down. What that happens, run to the sides so he doesn't drop down on you. From there, you'll want to grab the steel keg, stand on the diodes on the side of the room and throw steel kegs into his back until he goes back into the background.
He'll eventually turn the conveyor belt on, and the direction it moves will switch back and forth every few seconds. Eventually, he'll be where you're at. Watch for the shock of electricity so it doesn't touch you and it hits the steel keg before disappearing (don't touch the keg while it is shocked, or you will lose a Kong). If you miss the Baron, just wait for the next shock - and avoid it - and throw steel kegs into that backpack copter a few more times. You'll finally get the last DK coin of the game.
If you go to Wrinkly's Save Cave immediately after this, Wrinkly will tell you that the Banana Birds are immediately getting restless and to go see Funky Kong.
Head back to Funky's Rentals with all 40 DK Coins. You'll get access to the Gyrocopter, which allows you to fly anywhere in the overworld that you want. It controls like the Turbo Ski, except you're in the air.
In the northwestern corner, you'll find Hill Top Hoard. Wait for the area name to appear on the bottom, then press A to go in. Complete the game of Simon to get a Banana Bird.
Just south of Wrinkly's Save Cave is Belcha's Burrow. Land when you see the location name and complete the game of Simon to get a Banana Bird.
K's Cache is the island to the west of Barter's Swap Shop. Land when you see the location name, complete the game of Simon, and get the Banana Bird...after nine button presses!
After this, land at Wrinkly's Save Cave and talk to Wrinkly. The birds will become restless and take you to the clouds on the northwest corner of the map. You'll meet the Banana Bird Queen, and since you've gotten all 13 Banana Birds, you will be able to free her from her prison so she can take care of Baron K. Roolenstein once and for all. And with that, you've done it! You've beaten Donkey Kong Country 3!
I should also mention that once you cause the Knautilus to rise up from the water in the center of Krematoa, the appearance of all the stages change to have a reddish hue.
