In '' | In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', his debut appearance Conga is located in [[Mumbo's Mountain]], where he stands atop an orange tree. There are two [[Jiggy|Jiggies]] that [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] can obtain from him. If they go near Conga, he starts throwing an endless supply of [[orange]]s at them. One of Conga's Jiggies is buried under the ground. To obtain it, Banjo and Kazooie must trick Conga into throwing an orange at each of the three [[Orange Switch]]es on the ground. By doing so, the Jiggy pops out from the ground. Conga's other Jiggy can be obtained after [[Chimpy]] has raised the nearby tree stump. From there, Banjo and Kazooie can jump on a higher platform, where they can attack Conga by firing [[Blue Egg|egg]]s at him. Every time Conga is hit, he starts throwing more oranges at Banjo and Kazooie. After taking seven hits, Conga is defeated, and the duo are rewarded another Jiggy. | ||

In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Conga is found in [[Witchyworld]], where he works as the ticket taker of the [[Big Top]] tent. He only allows Banjo and Kazooie to enter if they have all four [[ticket]]s and have learned the [[Airborne Egg Aiming]] move. If both requirements are met, Conga lets them in, telling them to "enjoy the show" before leaving. | In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Conga is found in [[Witchyworld]], where he works as the ticket taker of the [[Big Top]] tent.
