About this product

Product Information

When Diddy Kong is recruited to help Timber the Tiger save his island from the villainous Wizpig, he jumps at the opportunity. His uncle Donkey Kong is always racing to save the day, and he wants a victory of his own. This simple goal ends up leading Diddy Kong on a sprawling adventure across Timber's island, which has been modified with racetracks guarded by Wizpig's evil henchmen. In "Diddy Kong Racing DS," you get your choice of transportation; fly a plane, race in a hovercraft, or compete in a go-kart race on a variety of exciting courses. Every vehicle has its own specific uses and advantages to be learned and applied in each game. Hovercrafts allow your racer to skim easily over water-based maps while planes let you soar in swooping paths around your opponents to secure the lead. Cars, of course, are also modes of transportation in the game, and you are able to choose the one that has the speed or other features you're looking for.Visit your course after your quest, and remember that your ultimate goal is to defeat the evil boss. In Adventure Mode, your choice of eight unique playable racers navigates across five chapters with their own specific themes and dangers. Each chapter in "Diddy Kong Racing" contains four racetracks, a battle stage that lets you go head-to-head with a single opponent, and a boss battle taking the form of a climactic race against one of Wizpig's evil allies.Choose your game and your course, then jump in and try to win the race. Each competition is different because the element of adventure is added in novel ways. Additionally, each race provides you with oil slicks and rockets as support as well as boosters to increase your speed. Other power-ups make you invincible or grant a magnet that pulls you to the nearest racer. When defeating your enemies to win the day, it's important that you develop your strategies with all of these weapons.The online multiplayer mode in "Diddy Kong Racing" adds a new angle to the game, letting you test your skills against racers from around the world. The enhanced visuals and updated frame rates make each relay a colorful, high-speed chase that never fails to impress and amaze.This version of "Diddy Kong Racing" features touchscreen controls and support for a microphone. You can also design your own track and share it with family and friends. If flying solo is more your thing, customize your characters by recording sound bites with the Nintendo DS microphone so that your voice becomes a part of the action. "Diddy Kong Racing DS" is suitable for children of all ages, featuring high-stakes adventures without violence or adult language. The charming, cheerful music is paired with cute characters whose voices chirp out through the microphone warmly. First released in 1997 for the Nintendo 64, this racing game remake was re-introduced in 2007. The Nintendo DS release introduces the Donkey Kong family to a new generation.

    A passable remake

    Many of the gameplay changes to make the game "easier" feel rather hamfisted and take much of the game's freedom from it. The addition of Dixie and Tiny to make up for the missing two characters due to copyright was a good idea, but the story wasn't. Evil Wizpig taking over an island? RACE HIM! Players were perfectly happy with the story of the adventure mode being vague, trying to make it make sense just makes it seem incredibly stupid instead of just vague. Also; Tiny Kong. If you're gonna include her with two other normally-proportioned monkeys, don't give her the proportions of a human. She looks weird. But at its core, it is still Diddy Kong Racing, and still a fun game to play. The inclusion of multiplayer without requiring multiple game cards is a nice touch.

  • Amazing Nintendo 64 Remake for the DS! Diddy Kong Racing DS.

    I loved this game when I was a little kid! When I found out they had it for the Nintendo DS I was thrilled! I bought this game because I loved it when I was a little kid and I still do. The best thing about this game is the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection you're able to Single Race,Trophy Race,Token Tussel and even do battle tracks from the N64 version! There are few things about this game that I don't really care for. Those being... The racing and adventure part is extremely easy and on Wi-Fi Connection theres hardly anyone ever online so you'll be lucky to race against even one player online. But aside from those two things this game is definitely a favorite of mine out of a lot of DS games I own. The graphics are a million times better on the DS than the N64 version which is great! They added ...

  • A great remake to a great game

    If you liked Diddy Kong Racing for the N64 then Diddy Kong DS is a game for you. The two games are almost identical besides some small changes (Banjo and Conker are no longer available characters). In any case there are different modes to play in such as adventure or single race. In single race you simply go at it and race against some computer players. You can of course still choose your character from a variety of Nintendo characters and also choose your vehicle (Car, Hovercraft or Plane). Adventure mode is similair, however there is a basic plot line and you are not necessarily racing in every challenge. In general you go through several worlds racing to get balloons then beat some bosses. Throughout this you can collect coins to upgrade your vehicles. Another good reason for ...

  • Welcome to memory lane!

    Pros: they make use of the ds touch screen Cons: they should add a difficultly setting I would buy this game Oh the nostalgia is so over whelming. Diddy Kong Racing basically got an upgrade with some changes being good while others being bad. One change that really stood out is that the game was made much easier. In any case it makes the game a little less challenging. They could have easily added a difficultly setting like easy, medium, and hard to fix that. Because of this I actually prefer playing the old one despite all the nice and new touch features added in. I give this game 8 stars out of 10!

  • Diddy Kong Racing DS

    The idea behind Diddy Kong Racing DS is a good one: take Diddy Kong Racing on the Nintendo 64, one of the greatest games ever made, and port it to the Nintendo DS. Unfortunately, the final product falls short of its aspirations and the expectations of many. Diddy Kong Racing DS has the same basic elements of it&apos;s predecessor: an interactive adventure mode that allows players to unlock maps, challenges, and characters. The races, challenges, and boss races are fun, and the ability to upgrade your three vehicles is an enticing feature. All in all, this is a half-decent racing game. Sadly, this game has several blemishes that are impossible to overlook. The biggest problem that this game has is one that any person, regardless of whether or not they played the original game, will ...
