In two-player mode, both players share their extra lives. If either player loses a life, they can float back onscreen in a [[DK Barrel]] hanging from a Balloon after pressing {{button|wii|A}} if the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] is held sideways, or {{button|wii|1}} if the [[Wii#Nunchuk|Nunchuk]] is attached to the remote. This is similar to how players float around in [[bubble]]s in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. If both Kongs simultaneously lose a life, often from falling down a [[pit]], they lose two lives in total. Like in single-player mode, if both Kongs lose a life or if one of them loses a life while the other is missing, they must restart the level or from the last checkpoint. | In two-player mode, both players share their extra lives.

The Kongs can purchase some Life Balloons via Cranky Kong's Shop in groups of either one, three, or seven (priced at 3, 7, and 15 [[Banana Coin]]s, respectively). If the player selects a save file where the Kongs are low on lives, Cranky provides them with some extra balloons. There are also three balloons (one red, one yellow, and one blue) on the roof of Cranky Kong's Shop, the latter two of which do not have an in-game role. | The Kongs can purchase some Life Balloons via Cranky Kong's Shop in groups of either one, three, or seven (priced at 3, 7, and 15 [[Banana Coin]]s, respectively).
