How to unlock the No Three-Toad Sloth achievement in Rare Replay - Definitive Guide

Not really a solution but a note: I did a run with a friend, and it counted for 2 of the toads in one playthrough.

If you have 2 friends to play with you, you can knock it out in one go.

Important note: My friend was signed in also, but he did NOT get any achievements from the game. We finished a playthrough but he didn't get "Finish the Fight," only I did. So whomever is the active account, gets the achievement.

Edit: From Borgenator (this guy is awesome)

If you can't get three people together, and you have an extra controller, you can save just before beating the final boss and then sign the extra controller into an alternate account, and have them jump in the game.

Beat the boss and you'll get two toads. Reload the save then have the extra controller be the last toad you need and beat the game again. You can still get this in one go and as little of the last boss as you would like to play twice.

You should add what Borgenator said to the guide - just got it using that method. Only one playthrough necessary!

Probably a stupid question... but how do you select a specific toad with the second controller when you load the save. I get the same one every time.

I've completed it with two toads and only 33% complete very annoying as I've only one controller.

I beat with Rash (don't have a second controller) and still stuck at 0%... I don't want to play this game 3 more times! 2 more is enough!

I had the same problem using Rash first and it didn't count. I had to play the game over with Zitz and Pimple and then Rash again and then I got the achievement.

Didn't count for rash. Have to do this again. Definitely glitchy.

Yep, even loaded up and did the boss battle again but it stays at 33% when it should be 66%.

No, BabyPetrov it wasn't directed at you. Sorry if sounded that way. I just find the solution itself not very well explained.

Ok, I'm going to explain this final boss bit.
The last part of the final boss battle is the part where you are shooting the boss at the bottom of the screen and the brain is exposed. The shield % will count down in a dialogue box as you damage it and it will eventually get down to 3%, this is where you'll want to sign in your second controller and pick your character.

MAKE SURE YOU MAKE A SAVE FILE BEFORE YOU EVEN GET THE 2ND PLAYER'S CHARACTER INTO THE GAME. If you don't then you cannot get the 3rd frog part of the achievement because the game will not let you use the other frog once you have selected one with the 2nd controller, even if the 2nd player has gotten game over.

I learned this the hard way and now I have to play the game the 3rd time with Zitz who I wasn't able to select with the 2nd controller after using Pimple with 2nd controller.

First of all, a big shout-out to Flopsy86, if hadn't been for his (hers?) comment specifying the "exposed brain" bit I would've "toadally" missed the fact that I was on the last level lol redface
2ndly in case anyone was wondering I just did this with 3 controllers which is "toadally" possible so if you have 3 you don't have to go through (the last of) the boss fight twice...
Anyway thanks for the guide & good luck to anyone reading this, "break a frogleg" (#DadJokeAlert) laughwave

Not really solution but important:

No the game is NOT glitching. DO NOT START A NEW GAME BETWEEN TOADS. The reason it's not working is because you are likely doing this. You need to do all three on the same save file one after the other. Once you start a new game it basically wipes you back to 0.

So for instance if you start with Pimple, go through the game beat it with him. Sit through the ending stuff and wait for it to take you to starting screen then hit either x or a to start with Zitz or Rash. You can save and quit to break then or keep on keeping on. But you must go through all 3 without hitting new game for this to unlock.

I hope this helps people who feel like the achievement is glitched, it's not technically. I guess you could call that a glitch but I am guessing it was a design choice... who knows.

Again not really a solution but wanted to get this out for people.

I've done all three on the same save, as I have a score on the leaderboards for all three at once, yet it's only at 66% for some reason

VERY IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ:
This is not a guide, but an important note to anybody trying for this achievement
On both the achievements app and the milestones page of Battletoads arcade, you will see this achievement and it should have a percentage (%) under it. Everytime you complete a playthrough with a different character, the percentage should go up 33% or 34% in this order:
0% (no playthroughs completed yet), 33% (1st), 66% (2nd), 100% (3rd and final)
^common sense^
However, many of us have completed the game multiple times but our % are stuck behind.
For example, I completed the game 3 times with all three toads but the percentage says 33% (only one playthrough completed), on both the milestones page and the achievements app.

Proposed Solution
Whenever you've completed a single playthrough, hold cn_start to load up the pause menu, and select Load>New Game, and start your new playthrough on a fresh save file. I can confirm this worked for me. Should work the same for you!

The way I got this was use another controller to add a second toad right before beating the final boss it will work with three controllers too but I had to play through again to get cruel and unusual punishment

This achievement requires you to complete the game with all three of the Battletoads. This can be done by completing a full single-player playthrough with each of the 'toads.

Alternatively, if you have access to a second controller you can use this to speed up unlocking this achievement significantly, as completing the game with multiple 'toads in play will credit you with completion for each of them. Simply make a manual save towards the end of the final stage of your first full playthrough, then use the second controller to bring in another 'toad before completing the stage. Now reload the stage and repeat with the one remaining 'toad to unlock the achievement. If you have three controllers available, three 'toads can be in play together, unlocking the achievement in a single step.

If you have an additional gamepad, the process can be speeded up, rather than going through the game three times in ~1 hour with each Toad. Moreover, it is enough to connect to the game from the second gamepad in the last phase of the battle with the final boss.
1) In general, we reach Robo-Manus, playing for, say, Rash,
2) we demolish almost all the boss’s defense,
3) save the game (hold the Menu button on the gamepad, select the appropriate option),
4) connect the second gamepad using its buttons , , choose Zitz or Pimple,
5) finish off the boss, watch the end credits,
6) check the tracker (in-game Milestone) - it should be 66%
7) load the save, return to the 4th step, but now we introduce another Toad into the game,
8) repeat step 5,
9) we hope that a possible glitch will NOT happen, we get an achievement.

If you have three gamepads, then everything is generally fast - before finishing off the boss, we simply introduce the whole trio into the game.
