The '''Nintendo Coin''' is a [[Useful Item|key item]] in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. It is a silver [[coin]] bearing the [[Nintendo 64]] logo. The Nintendo Coin can be obtained by [[Donkey Kong]] playing the original [[Donkey Kong (game)|''Donkey Kong'']] arcade game in [[Frantic Factory]] and winning it twice.

After the player beats the old [[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong arcade machine]] in [[Frantic Factory]], [[Squawks the Parrot]] will appear and tell Donkey Kong to play the game again to win a special prize. After paying two coins, the player can use the arcade machine again. This time though, instead of rescuing [[Pauline]], the player will humorously have to rescue the Nintendo Coin. The game's difficulty also increases, so the player must be extra careful.
