The only Kong who can meet the Banana Fairy Princess is [[Tiny Kong|Tiny]], as the entrance of the Fairy Head is only large enough for her to access by using her [[Mini-Monkey]] ability. Inside, she finds the Banana Fairy Princess crying, who claims that a large tremor (presumably from [[K. Lumsy]]) scared away all the Banana Fairies. The Princess asks Tiny to help the other Kongs in recovering the Banana Fairies, and provides them with the [[Banana Fairy's Camera]] and ten rolls of [[Banana Camera Film]] to help in doing so. She also gives the Kongs the [[Super Slam]], a shockwave ability that instant defeats most enemies and unearths [[5-Banana Coin]]s from [[DK Dirt Pile]]s.
After every Banana Fairy is recovered, Tiny can revisit the Banana Fairy Princess for a unique [[Golden Banana]] with a [[Rare Ltd.|Rareware]] logo sticker on it.
The [[Mermaid]] from [[Gloomy Galleon]] and the Banana Fairy Princess have the same crying sound.
