"Diddy Kong Racing" received critical acclaim upon release. The graphics, audio and gameplay were the most praised aspects of the game, with minor criticism directed at the game's repetition. The game has sold 4.8 million copies since release and stands as the Nintendo 64's eighth best-selling game. A sequel named "Donkey Kong Racing" was in development for the GameCube, but was abandoned after Microsoft purchased Rare for £375 million in 2002. An enhanced remake for the Nintendo DS titled "Diddy Kong Racing DS" was released worldwide in early 2007.
