Donkey Kong Bananza has tons of bananas to collect throughout its many layers, but one players has done what most probably haven’t – which is obtaining zero of them.
Akfamilyhome shared the feat on social media. At this point this is the first time we’re hearing about a player beating Donkey Kong Bananza with 0 bananas collected (at least in terms of sharing that accomplishment online and having it be widely recognized).

How to farm Banandium Chips in Donkey Kong Bananza
Posted on 4 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch 2 | 0 comments
For those playing Donkey Kong Bananza, we’ve got a new guide that serves as a helpful way to farm Banandium Chips.
As you might expect from a collect-a-thon platformer, Donkey Kong Bananza takes quite a while to 100 percent complete. Even if you grab all static Banandium Gems, you won’t have enough Skill Points to max out your Skill Tree. For that, you’ll need to trade in Banandium Chips for extra Banandium Gems. You’ll earn a fair number of these just by playing through the game, but inevitably you’ll get to the point where you need to collect more.
We’ve tested several different methods and have settled on the fastest one – shout-out to Relative_Barber_1921 on Reddit for figuring this one out. The location of this method is one of the later layers in the game, so if you’re looking to avoid spoilers of all kinds, you might want to bookmark or remember this post and come back later.

Posted on 4 months ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
One of the best parts of the Kirby franchise is how flexible it is. If you so choose, you can romp right through the main campaign of whichever game you please while paying little attention to the story. For those who do want to delve into Kirby lore, though, there are plenty of tidbits to uncover here and there. Kirby and the Forgotten Land was absolutely bursting to the brim with new lore details, and you can read all about them here. Now, Kirby and the Forgotten Land is receiving a new DLC story called Star-Crossed World. As you might expect, this will probably contain at least a few new lore drops. And today, we’re here to make a few predictions about what those might be! We’ll be discussing spoilers from a few major Kirby games, so keep that in mind before you continue.
