In memory of Mumbo. He was a great guy, with many skills. He brought a statue to life, he lifted large objects, he powered up machines, made it possible to breathe underwater, healed a sick dinosaur, made Humba huge, caused machines to malfunction, brought the dead back to life, made rain appear, and was awesome to play as.
If Mingy Jongo is approached while playing as Mumbo, Banjo or Kazooie alone, or the Bee transformation, he will not wake up, and, despite being asleep, he causes damage when touched. The same applies if you have lost to him, where he stands in front of his chair laughing until Banjo and Kazooie arrive. I looked it up cuz it was interesting
7:06, Fun Fact: The only way to fight Mingy Jongo is to be Banjo and Kazooie together. If you walk up to Mingy as only Banjo or only Kazooie, Mumbo, or as Bee Banjo, he won't wake up, hence the fight will not commence. However, if you touch Mingy when not controlling Banjo and Kazooie together, even when he's asleep, he will still cause damage to you. The first time I played this game, I controlled Mumbo around in Cloud Cuckooland, entered Mingy's house, and lost a health unit from touch the sleeping imposter.
One of the things I always loved about this game is how the boss themes are dramatic remixes of the world/area the boss is from. For example, Weldar's theme is a remix of Grunty Industries, Mr. Patch remixes Witchworld, and so on. Mingy Jongo is sort of an anomaly, because he's not (if I remember correctly) the main boss of the world, but even he has a remixed theme of Mumbo's hut's regular music. Grant Kirkhope (the game's composer) is awesome.
I didn't know HoneyBack restored at such a fast rate. Wow. You were right about being near-invincible. When you said "That's Right", I was thinking "Meowth, that's right!"
I love the enemy design in this world. Well, I actually love the design of the whole world. When I still had a N64, this was my favourite part of the game.
Wow, I bet that fake wishes he had honey back xD I wonder if you can take mumbo to the fake's place though. That's really cool that you can see the world below.
I've been in a few different caves. Plus I've gone spelunking 2 years in a row so far... might end up being like a tradition. I've always thought it sounded like eekum bokum.
Does anything special happen if you get a glowbo, take the real Mumbo, and go to the fake Mumbo before fighting that boss? Is it possible to fight him as Mumbo?
I still find it perplexing how a bird can fly endlessly with a bear without dropping him. That must be one pretty strong and high stamina bird. Hopefully, I don't get picked up with that bird.
What I've noticed fighting Mingy is that the Homing cheat seems to affect his spells as well. They only home if their target (you) is close, just like the eggs. If the code's off they don't home.

I've been in legitimate caves on multiple occasions. There's one in Albany NY that I've been to and another in Virginia, I forgot both of their names but they were mainly class trips :D I even had a boat ride in one of them, as there was a stream going though the entire thing... scary thing was, the boat tour ended right before a bottomless pit which they blocked off. Looked scary as hell D: made me wonder what was down there...
I once got Mingy Jongo in this cool loop where I kept hitting him over and over again, not giving him time to warp at all. He just stood in place like a moron, letting me kick his ass.
That hunnyback saved you in the battle against the fake Mumbo. I always thoughb it was Ecome Tocome to untill reading the pad now it sounds like Ecome Bocome. No more Mumbo that sucks well he was a good help.
2:37 You can see Banjo is in something close to a T pose right at the end of that cutscene. I didn't know Rare ever had something that bad-show in one of their games, they were always so good at not letting that stuff get by :(.
He's 100-percenting the game. While it may not seem fair watching it, if you were playing and knew where most everything was, you'd do it, too. 100-percenting usually does that in a Rare game. Doing everything becomes it's own reward.
And daaaamn, that cheat for your life is insane Oo You'll never die xD Which is good I suppose but I have to admit that somehow...it would be more fun if you could ^^
I always thought that this world was a bunch of different stuff thrown into one world, like if they couldn't figure out the last world's theme and they put several ideas together and made it a floating island... Am I the only one thinking like this (I still LIKE the world though)
i remembber dying on mingy jongo in the cutscene since i had i life lol and when i came back he said ill beat u again as if i fought him and i didnt XD
I tend to remember which place is Mingy's and which is Mumbo's by the jinjo. Mingy has a jinjo, Mumbo's has a minjo :D 'cause they do alternate f rom game to game.
am i the only one who wants to somehow get mumbo to the other skull to fight mingy jongo its impossible but would be cool and if im not mistaken they reused the Bee power up from Kazooie in this game. The last world has a Bee transformation same as the 1st game lol
Mingy Jongo should have said to Banjo & Kazooie, "Bear and bird need Mumbo help?" Banjo: "Sure! We could use all the help we can get." Mingy: "Mumbo help bear and bird...TO DIE!" And I have to give this game 50 extra cool points for making a Star Trek reference there. Resistance is futile, indeed.
@Kasudain No that green light that you see when you go into a Mumbo Skull. In the green light in Mingy's skull, there is a real Jinjo, when you go into Mumbo Jumbo's Skull, there is a Fake Jinjo. Get it now?

Here lies Scout
He ran fast, and died a MelOhn!

When I was a kid, I had a hard time beating Mingy Jongo. He was the hardest boss in the game, aside from the final boss.
One of the things I always loved about this game is how the boss themes are dramatic remixes of the world/area the boss is from. For example, Weldar's theme is a remix of Grunty Industries, Mr. Patch remixes Witchworld, and so on.

I about crapped my pants the first time I saw that Mingy Jonjo cutscene when I was little...I was always scared to go to Mumbo after that!
Prime is the first 3D Metroid. Metroid is the one thing that the N64 was sadly missing.
I didn't know HoneyBack restored at such a fast rate. Wow. You were right about being near-invincible.
When you said "That's Right", I was thinking "Meowth, that's right!"
mingy jongo sounds like that bout of diarrhea I had last week D: MISS U!
I love your little Borg referance there. XD
I love the enemy design in this world. Well, I actually love the design of the whole world. When I still had a N64, this was my favourite part of the game.
watching your health while fighting Mingy, that cheat makes you virtually immortal
lol, before you even said "Terminator" I was already thinking "God he looks like a terminator."
I know thank you but that was funny to see banjo and kazooie face a fake mumbo
Wow, I bet that fake wishes he had honey back xD I wonder if you can take mumbo to the fake's place though.
That's really cool that you can see the world below.
Caves are pretty cool, I went to one in Colombia and one in Pennsylvania, they are beutiful.
I have an urge to dance when Mumbo chants
9:39, I actually used to be a tour guide at a cave.Loved going down there and giving tours, but the boss was an absolute nightmare.
A SAFE! QUICK! SOMEONE CALL CONKER!
wow that was a awesome beggining lol
I think I remember the Autarch comparing this to Terminator in his original version of the disturbing bosses list as well!
I've been in a few different caves. Plus I've gone spelunking 2 years in a row so far... might end up being like a tradition.
I've always thought it sounded like eekum bokum.
lol this is my favorite boss fight in the game i was looking forward to this battle since the beggining of this LP
Mingy Jongo boss music are wonderfully awesome!
lol when I was younger I had a hard time beating Mingy Jongo, not to mention he scared me. XD
dude i fell asleep watching this LP and woke up to the fight in the beginning and had nightmares about Mumbo all night O.o
Does anything special happen if you get a glowbo, take the real Mumbo, and go to the fake Mumbo before fighting that boss? Is it possible to fight him as Mumbo?
Evil twins, paper-thin enemies out of nowhere with silly weaponry, flowers with eyeballs... It's WackyLand in video game form... XD
those flowers are like those pads in ratchet and clank
I like how the Mingy Jongo battle music is a remix of the Mumbo's Skull theme.
I love your videos
I still find it perplexing how a bird can fly endlessly with a bear without dropping him. That must be one pretty strong and high stamina bird. Hopefully, I don't get picked up with that bird.
What I've noticed fighting Mingy is that the Homing cheat seems to affect his spells as well. They only home if their target (you) is close, just like the eggs. If the code's off they don't home.
Ah, that's a neat little trick they pulled there.

took off the wiki, since i wondered if mumbo could fight jongo
When I fought this guy I used Breggul Bash alot... and it helped surprisingly
I've been in legitimate caves on multiple occasions. There's one in Albany NY that I've been to and another in Virginia, I forgot both of their names but they were mainly class trips :D I even had a boat ride in one of them, as there was a stream going though the entire thing... scary thing was, the boat tour ended right before a bottomless pit which they blocked off.

I've only been in a cave once. It was kind of small too.
after this lets play will you do banjo kazooie nuts and bolts?
It's the Borg version of Mumbo! He even said "resistance if futile"!!!
the way mingy jongo dies is a reference to the matrix.
I knew I remembered fighting mumbo!
i think i did that once when i was a kid,not sure,but if i remember correctly,mumbo calls him out to be an imposter and you fight him as mumbo
That hunnyback saved you in the battle against the fake Mumbo. I always thoughb it was Ecome Tocome to untill reading the pad now it sounds like Ecome Bocome. No more Mumbo that sucks well he was a good help.
2:37 You can see Banjo is in something close to a T pose right at the end of that cutscene. I didn't know Rare ever had something that bad-show in one of their games, they were always so good at not letting that stuff get by :(.
Bears do not have square noses. Thank you, and have a nice day.
heres a question...what if you get the real mumbo into the fake mumbo's house? is there some sort of EPIC CLIMACTIC BATTLE TO THE DEATH!?
By the way, IDK if you already thought this or not, but you should make the last fight its own episode, just for all it climactic glory!
"Eekum Tokum, Eekum Bokum, Eekum Tokum, woah-ya-woah woah-ya-woah"
...That's what I heard. :P
First time I saw this I thought Mumbo was evil but i was younger
Mumbo mixed with the terminator...freaky, and unexpected.
mumbo used rain dance. it's super effective
i remeber when i rented teh game when i was young....i always fought this boss
I don't want to say goodbye to mumbo :(. Mumbo good bird
8:57 that's the funniest cry I've ever heard XD
I noticed when he Mumbo chant ends it's the EXACT same sound that Aku Aku from Crash Bandicoot makes when you pick him up.
They could've had such a neat boss for Cloud Cuckoo Land...
I mean, Jongo is great! But... I wonder what else they could have done.
No matter which Mumbo hut you go in first, it's Mingy Jongo.
did you know that mumbo taught grunty magic, and when she renounced him, she cursed him with a skull mask face? I learned that from wikipedia.
When you go into the trash can area, look for and behind the for the milk carton. And guess what you see. ;D
I thought it would snow when mumbo danced.
I'm gonna miss the mighty Mumbo magic. He sure is the best shaman of the game; heck, he's the best shaman EVER! Eekum bokum on, Mumbo.
The give away on Mingy Jongo: he says "Welcome Banjo."
i went to that skull first and in it i've found a minjo and the true mumbo
What happened to the real mumbo?
He's 100-percenting the game. While it may not seem fair watching it, if you were playing and knew where most everything was, you'd do it, too. 100-percenting usually does that in a Rare game. Doing everything becomes it's own reward.
Does Honeyback work for air underwater?
Why didnt NCS try to use the Homing Eggs? Wouldnt that have been perfect for this fight?
No, he snoozes right through your entire visit. If you attack him, he damages you.
And daaaamn, that cheat for your life is insane Oo You'll never die xD Which is good I suppose but I have to admit that somehow...it would be more fun if you could ^^
I always thought that this world was a bunch of different stuff thrown into one world, like if they couldn't figure out the last world's theme and they put several ideas together and made it a floating island... Am I the only one thinking like this (I still LIKE the world though)
was the second vine next to a giant garbage can?
Its mario galaxy all over again oh well that was a hell of a game
i remembber dying on mingy jongo in the cutscene since i had i life lol and when i came back he said ill beat u again as if i fought him and i didnt XD
when mumbo danced in the game it actually started raining where i live. and it actually stopped when mumbo stopped aswell. it was really weird.
NintendoCapriSun, can ppl actually use Mumbo against Mingy Jongo? Or does it not allow a cutscene to work?
Wow I haven't played Banjo Tooie in years I have actully never beat it.
If you take mumbo there he will just sleep.
If you think that the fake mumbo is some scary shit now, imagine being about 6 years old and fighting him!
I tend to remember which place is Mingy's and which is Mumbo's by the jinjo. Mingy has a jinjo, Mumbo's has a minjo :D 'cause they do alternate f rom game to game.
But bears have yellow pants and blue bacpacks with a bird in them :)
am i the only one who wants to somehow get mumbo to the other skull to fight mingy jongo its impossible but would be cool and if im not mistaken they reused the Bee power up from Kazooie in this game. The last world has a Bee transformation same as the 1st game lol
What did the female bear say to the male bear?
- Is that a bird in your backpack or are you just happy to see me......
lame, I know lol
0:02 synchronized evil laughter FTW!
I've been in a cave like twice, but it didn't have any magical creatures or jiggies or anything.. I was disappointed.
Mumbo makes such a pathetic moan as he's falling to his death.
8:58
He sounds like an old man having a heart-attack.
@WolfColdJ Yeah, what happens if you take Mumbo to Mingy's skull before you beat him?
I know wats in the safe...a slap in THA face
what if mumbo fought with mingy jonjo?
10:00 Do I even WANT to know what that baddie is carrying?
Mingy Jongo should have said to Banjo & Kazooie, "Bear and bird need Mumbo help?" Banjo: "Sure! We could use all the help we can get."
Mingy: "Mumbo help bear and bird...TO DIE!"
And I have to give this game 50 extra cool points for making a Star Trek reference there. Resistance is futile, indeed.
Easy way to tell if you got the Good or Bad Mumbo. The Good one has the Minjo and the Bad one has the Jinjo.
awesome video! as always! 5/5! =)
I figured something was up when I noticed the skull was BLUE, not yellow
It's the Mumbo-nator!
a monster had a sausage instead of a candy cane!
Why are the enemies in the cave flat?
@Kasudain No that green light that you see when you go into a Mumbo Skull. In the green light in Mingy's skull, there is a real Jinjo, when you go into Mumbo Jumbo's Skull, there is a Fake Jinjo. Get it now?
GO MUMBO! USE RAIN DANCE!
