Tiki Buzzes are members of the Tiki Tak Tribe and enemies in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS version. They are tikis shaped like a bongo drum and are nearly the size of Diddy Kong. They have carved black eyeballs, a yellow beak, red wings and brown tail feathers, as well as three beaded strings attached to the bottom.
History[edit]
Donkey Kong Country Returns / Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D[edit]
Tiki Buzzes fly in various patterns, with some moving from side to side vertically while others move horizontally. They are harmful if simply touched from the sides or the bottom, but can be defeated with any attack. The Kongs can jump on them to reach higher locations and cross wide gaps. Tiki Buzzes are common in Mine Cart levels, such as Crazy Cart, where the Kongs must often land their Mine Cart on them to reach higher rails. Their behavior is comparable to Neckies from Donkey Kong Country.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS[edit]
- SmashWiki article: Tiki Buzz
Tiki Buzzes are enemies in the Smash Run mode of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, and can be defeated from being jumped on, like in Donkey Kong Country Returns. There is also a trophy of a Tiki Buzz.
WarioWare: Get It Together![edit]
Tiki Buzzes appear in WarioWare: Get It Together! as enemies in the Donkey Kong Country Returns microgame where they must be defeated. They either fly back and forth or up and down.
