Overview

• The inaugural event, translated as “Chip Fever,” runs October 28 to November 4 with regional start times published for North America, UK/Ireland, Europe, and Asia/Oceania.
• Nintendo notes the event name comes from a Japanese post and may differ in Western regions.
• Emerald Rush is retooled around chip-based Perks such as Chip Hoarder, Chip Negotiator, Chip Collector, and Magic Wallet.
• The event uses the DK Island stage and removes random elements so repeated attempts make high scores easier to chase.
• High scorers can unlock event-exclusive figures—Kong Bananza and Enguard—and a second event is teased for later in 2025 with details to follow.
