Snide

Snide is a weasel and former engineer and technician of King K. Rool who first appeared in Donkey Kong 64. After building the Blast-O-Matic, a weapon K. Rool had planned on using to blow up Donkey Kong Island with Snide was fired by K. Rool and had all his work confiscated.

Eventually Snide met the Kongs and decided to help them take down K. Rool. If the Kongs bring Snide a blueprint he will give them a Golden Banana, in increasingly bizarre ways. Every blueprint given to Snide will increase the amount of time the Kongs have to shut down the Blast-O-Matic in Hideout Helm.
