Mirror Mode
Beat every "-K" level (get K O N G on every level in a world) and beat the game. When you do, a golden temple will show up on the world map. Beat the level there and you'll unlock "Mirror mode," a very difficult way to play through each level, in which Diddy can't be used, you only get one life, the level is reversed, and you can't use items.

Unlock the Banana Temple
Beating the game unlocks the Banana Temple, but it won't be accessible unless you do a few things first. To gain access into the temple, collect the K-O-N-G letters in every world and get the orb in each of the world's temples. Once you've collected all the orbs, the door to the Banana Temple will open.

Feeding Mugly And Thugly
Note that this trick requires co-op multiplayer to work. There is an hidden method to beating Mugly and Thugly, the first and sixth bosses respectively. As Diddy Kong, fire peanuts into their mouths when they're open. Once they've eaten enough peanuts, Mugly and Thugly will stop to chew, and leave their weak spots exposed.

Infinite Lives and Banana Coins at Five Monkey Trial a.k.a Kong Temple 8
Just like with grinding at Damp Dungeon for infinite Banana Coins and Lives, Five Monkey Trial / Kong Temple 8 is a Banana Coin Grind Fest, simply because you LITERALLY get Banana Coins for completing each trial. Trial #3 is a vertical section with Squid Shots, using Diddy, jump up and continuously jump on each squid, this will in turn, grant you not only indefinite amounts if lives, but this also grants Banana Coins up to a max of seven before you start gaining lives. To stop gaining lives and just Banana Coins, land on the spring pad and continue chaining for coins, have fun!

Easy Lives and Banana Coins at Damp Dungeon
Go to Damp Dungeon in the Ruins world and get around halfway through the level. At this point you should see a bunch of Red Awks as the game calls them, from here you can jump on all eight of these Awks and get one free life plus seven banana coins easily, in addition to the five or so that already exist in that small area, if you want to respawn the Awks, back track to the waterwheel area where two Screaming Pillars were at ( presumably toppled or smashed by this point if you collected the puzzle pieces from them ), then turn around and return to the area where the Red Awks should be, have fun grinding.

The Golden Temple
After you've beaten the game, a new area called the Golden Temple will appear on the map. However, you can't enter it immediately; in order to open the door, you need to collect eight Rare Orbs.
