I've hit him 8 times, and at that point he launches a purple haze thingy that reverses your direction (not that big an issue). Problem is, after launching it, he turns on the suction thing for a bit without dropping a cannon ball, then teleports right on top of me so I can't escape. The teleportation always results in my death.

Anything I'm missing?

Run around so that he doesn't appear on top on of you.

If you get hit by the purple or blue clouds then it's much harder to avoid him, to the point you might as well consider getting hit by the clouds as good as losing a Kong, although it's still possible to make it through safely if you're lucky. Still, your priority should be avoiding the clouds to stay in the fight.

He should play DKC1 first if he's going to play another one

DKC3 is pretty low priority

Just enter the code to get all of the kremcoins. The lost world is too amazing to go in sick of the game from having a collect-a-thon.

Advice noted.

For now, grinding through to collect-a-thon isn't unpleasant. I haven't been going for the DK coins (you don't need those, right?) but I've cleared worlds 1 and 2 for Bonus Rooms by following a guide.

now this i might do. but i guess i have a lot of DKC2 left first!

You don't need them unless you're a completionist and want a special message from Cranky.

Yeah, the DK Hero Coins are just so you can shut Cranky up and prove Diddy is a greater hero than Link, Mario, or Yoshi.

The bonus stage inside the bonus stage is the biggest bullshit ever, though.

got most of the world 3 ones, but need to get bramble blast. accidentally took myself to the save point while missing the first one (unclear where the first one is based on the walkthrough, but it's definitely before save point 1)

You're probably right.

DKC1 has the bonus stage inside the bonus stage (and you have to go for the single banana booby prize to even get to the second bonus stage).

DKC2 has a Hero Coin hidden in a bonus stage, which was an absolute nightmare to figure out.
