Trouble in Tropical Paradise

After years of living in peace and harmony, the inhabitants of Timber's
Island are shocked when their tropical paradise is invaded by a giant,
hideous space pig! To thwart Wizpig’s nefarious plans, explore the
sprawling island, unlock hidden racetracks, and drive, hover and fly
against colorful characters in high-octane competitions!

Your host, a gregarious elephant named Taj, greets you in a grassy
meadow. Drive over bridges, through sparkling surf and around volcanoes.
Start racing. You'll have to speed through a huge variety of racing
challenges if you want to unlock all the island’s secrets, complete the
adventure and save your friends from the parlous pig. Diddy Kong Racing
DS boasts a huge number of courses, including several all-new ones!

Diddy Kong Racing DS offers three types of vehicles: karts, hovercraft
and airplanes. The drivers range from the quick and the small to
heavyweights who specialize in bashing rivals off the course. Duel with
classic DKR power-ups like oil slicks, gas clouds, land mines, super
shields, speed boosts, homing missiles and magnets. In Diddy Kong Racing
DS, you’d better be ready for anything under the sun!
