Funky's Store, also called Funky's Armory, is a place where the Kongs can buy weapons and weapon-related upgrades in Donkey Kong 64. The music and atmosphere of the shop resemble an army surplus store, as does the design of the owner, Funky Kong.

Weapons

All weapons cost 3 coins and hold up to 50 ammo, and are available as soon as the Kongs first visit Funky's Store:

• Donkey Kong - Coconut Gun
• Diddy Kong - Peanut Popguns
• Tiny Kong - Feather Bow
• Lanky Kong - Grape Shooter
• Chunky Kong - Pineapple Launcher

Upgrades

• Ammo Belt 1 - Allows the Kongs to hold 100 of their weapons' ammo. This upgrade costs 3 coins, and is accessible starting in Frantic Factory.

• Homing Ammo - Allows the Kongs to use Homing ammo, which causes their shots to home in on enemies; 10 homing ammo can be carried at a time. This upgrade costs 5 coins, and is accessible starting in Fungi Forest.

• Ammo Belt 2 - Allows the Kongs to hold 200 more of their weapons' ammo, and 20 homing ammo. This upgrade costs 5 coins, and is accessible starting in Crystal Caves.

• Sniper - Allows the Kongs to see farther in the distance while shooting in first-person, and allows their shots to go further before disappearing. This upgrade costs 7 coins, and is accessible starting in Creepy Castle.

Features and uses

If a Kong visits Funky's Store while having less than the maximum amount of ammo, he will increase their ammo to the maximum.

Trivia

• This is the first time in any Donkey Kong game that has Funky run a shop that does not involve transportation.
