What to do with Banandium Chips In Donkey Kong Bananza
Banandium Chips are one of a few different currencies in Donkey Kong Bananza. Here's where you can turn them in and what they're good for.
Banandium Chips — sometimes just called Banana Chips by the weak of spirit — are a currency you can pick up all over the place in Donkey Kong Bananza. If you're wandering around the Lagoon Layer right now with your pockets bursting with Banadium Chips, you might be wondering what the hell you're supposed to be doing with them? Well, you can use them to buy Banandium Gems, of course. Evenutally.
In this Big Friendly Guide, we'll teach you how to use Banandium Chips to get unlimited Banandium Gems and skill points.
Where to turn in your Banandium Chips
If you're in the early parts of the game — Ingot Isle and the Lagoon Layer — you need to keep pushing forward until you reach the Hilltop Layer. Here, you'll meet the Banandium Chip exchange merchant, who is yellow and shaped a bit like a Banandium Chip. You can trade a handful of Banandium Chips and a little bit of gold to the merchant in exchange for one Banandium Gem. The interesting thing here is that you can actually keep doing this over and over again, although the price will continue going up (it caps at 100 Banandium Chips per Gem).
If you have a ton of Banandium Gems — which you typically find just digging in the environments of DK Bananza — you can rack up some skill points very quickly with this method. Only the first Banandium Chip counts toward your total Banandium Gems collected. So you'll want to do this once on every layer that has a Banandium Chip merchant if you're going for 100% completion.
