Headscratchers / Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest

• King K. Rool kidnaps DK to ransom him back to the other kongs for the Bananas. But Diddy and Dixie turn it into a rescue mission instead. So why didn't the Kremlings just KILL DK as soon as Diddy and Dixie arrived on Crocodile Isle? They looked determined to go after the recuing Kongs when the one they held hostage was the blackmail material they could do away with more easily.
  • Killing DK immediately wouldn't have benefited them. Most likely they were saving the "surrender or DK dies" for a key moment.
• Why would pirates have a theme park?
  • Pirates gotta have fun, too.
    • Exactly this. It's All There in the Manual.
  • Why wouldn't they have a theme park? It's Crocodile Isle, where Kremlings come from, and they probably have to find something to do when not stealing bananas and invading other islands.
  • If they want to have fun, why don't they repair it? Krazy Kremland is clearly in disrepair.
    • They have a weird sense of what's fun.
    • Or lack of budgeting. Selling bananas that always stay ripe to other lands might make them rich enough to fix the park.
    • Or they just don't care. They're pretty lazy when not causing mischief.
• How did the shipwreck in Crocodile Cauldron get beached so far inland, underground, and in molten lava?
  • Maybe it was originally a normal cave area until the mountains were revealed to be volcanoes when they erupted?
• Why are there ghosts chasing you on the library's roller coaster?
  • Its a haunted library. Better question is why a LIBRARY even has, or needs, a ROLLER COASTER.
