Talk:Diddy Kong Racing

message: first off,im 14 years old,and what can i say? this brought back wonderful memories :)
however,when one read the article,one may think that its like : "Choose a character,Choose a course,and youre ready to go" however its far aways from that. and how you got around on the island should also be noted,and that you could have races with that blue elephant.
also how you unlock the future funland (i think thats the name) i never unlocked it,but i remember a giant head of Wizpig near a cascade of water,and that it was made out of 4 parts that got coloured once you had unlocked everything in one area.

thread_title: Needs expanding

message: Microsoft and Rare are most likely more inclined to do the remake of Diddy Kong Racing rather than Donkey Kong 64. --ZachKudrna18@yahoo.com
* It seems unlikely that Nintendo would have a division of Microsoft do a game for it. tregoweth 03:18, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The article only makes mention of running over a red-crested frog to unlock Drumstick, which I heard rumors of but never actually accomplished. It's been a while since I last played this game, but I do remember I unlocked Drumstick after I beat one or two of the levels in Future Funland. Anyone else?

message: I removed the info as it is not sourced and seems to be just one person's opinion. Is there any evidence that anyone, other than the random IP that added it months ago, considers it an in-joke?--Drat (Talk) 12:02, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There's no point in having the Yellow Dinosaur part in this article, in my opinion. From the looks of it, it's either a filler character to make the introduction movie look more "busy" or an obstacle that Rare forgot to place in a level. I've also Googled the part about the in-joke and there's practically nothing there. Matt489 13:00, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I've heard rumors that Timber was supposed to have his own game, but it got cancelled. Does anyone know if that's true?--Rat235478683--
Of course it is true! He also had his own wiki page, but someone cancelled it. I'm asking why...--Kombatgod (talk) 16:23, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The reason there's no article on Timber is because he is a character who has only appeared in one game and has very little backstory.--Drat (Talk) 16:34, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Will they be a diddy kong racing on virtual console with a download version from the Nintendo 64?Shirleybiscuit

thread_title:  Question 

message: For a long time, I've had a hunch that Greedwood Village may be Pipsy's home village.  It's up in the mountains, after all, and the music seems to be similar to Pipsy's theme song in the Select a Character screen.  Does anybody else think that this may be the case?  --Luigifan 11:25, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This isn't a forum. Also, to put such a thing in the article would be original research.--Drat (Talk) 11:50, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I never said that I have any intention of putting it in the article, I just asked for opinions.  --Luigifan 21:35, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You should probably ask for opinions of that nature elsewhere. Like Drat said, this isn't a forum. If you have something to say about Diddy Kong Racing in a Wikipedia Talk Page, it should be questions, comments, or suggestions about improving the article. 98.202.45.178 04:28, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

message: "A hovercraft could even use it in the right place" 
This phrase is a little confusing, considering at the beginning it said that only hovercrafts and planes could use it. I don't know much of anything about the game, so if someone could expand on what to actually is meant to be said here, it will help the article :)<3 Tinkleheimer TALK!! 17:00, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Oh hi guys! So, some days ago, I had posted a piece of fan art of Diddy Kong Racing where I had depicted the characters in my own, cartoony style. Then some guy said that there apparently, was a cartoon of Diddy Kong Racing. Well, I looked everywhere, but couldn't find anything. Is there actually a cartoon of the game somewhere? I doubt it, but I'll just ask here to be sure... Ribbedebie (talk) 14:00, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

message: The reception section is on the page twice, with different content for both copies. Just sayin'. --174.114.172.181 (talk) 01:17, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

message: This game was published by Rareware not Nintendo, the first game they published from what I've heard DreamsDreams (talk) 17:10, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Hm, that's possible! Have you found a reliable source? :) Salvidrim! 17:15, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I also see Rare as the publisher in the instruction manual. Nintendo is noted as just exclusive distributor. nintendo may be the publisher for the japanese release. Lucia Black (talk) 02:46, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
