'''Cranky Kong's Shop''' is [[Cranky Kong]]'s business and possible residence in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. It appears to be the successor to [[Cranky's Cabin]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''.  
'''Cranky Kong's Shop''' is a shop run by [[Cranky Kong]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake, ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. It serves as the successor to [[Cranky's Cabin]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', and could be his possible residence.


There is a shop in each of the game's eight worlds, although they all carry the same selection of goods at the same prices. Many useful items can be purchased at these shops in exchange for [[Banana Coin]]s. Although most of what Cranky sells isn't mandatory, he does sell a [[key]] in each world, which will open up an alternate path on the map, allowing [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] to access an additional level or two. This is required for one-hundred percent completion.

This is required for completing the game by 100 percent.


As with previous games, Cranky will sometimes complain about his situation (Ex.: Needing Banana Coins, being stuck in a shack), or how the game is "too hard" for Donkey and Diddy. He'll also make (often snide) remarks about items the [[Kong]]s' purchases.

If the Kongs currently have a maximum number of 99 lives, Cranky refuses to sell an Extra Life Balloon to them. Likewise, if the Kongs buy a key, they cannot purchase it again.


On a side note, Cranky will not sell the Kongs Extra Life Balloons if they have 99 lives.  Likewise, if a key is bought, it can't be purchased again.
The shop was replaced by [[Funky's Fly 'n' Buy]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', in response to Cranky became a playable character.

Cranky Kong's Shop is a shop run by Cranky Kong in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS remake, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. It serves as the successor to Cranky's Cabin from Donkey Kong Country, and could be his possible residence.

There is a shop in each of the eight worlds, although they all carry the same selection of goods at the same prices. Many useful items can be purchased at these shops in exchange for Banana Coins. Although most of what Cranky sells is not mandatory, he does sell a key in each world, which will open up an alternate path on the map, allowing Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong to access an additional level or two. This is required for completing the game by 100 percent.

As with previous games, Cranky will sometimes complain about his situation (Ex.: Needing Banana Coins, being stuck in a shack), or how the game is "too hard" for Donkey and Diddy. He often makes snide remarks about the items purchased by the Kongs, and frequently alludes to the Golden Temple. If the Kongs currently have a maximum number of 99 lives, Cranky refuses to sell an Extra Life Balloon to them. Likewise, if the Kongs buy a key, they cannot purchase it again.

The shop was replaced by Funky's Fly 'n' Buy in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, in response to Cranky became a playable character.
