Diddy Kong Racing-not exactly the best

User Rating: 6.3 | Diddy Kong Racing DS DS
By ChickenBoy4 | Review Date:
I thought the game, though entertaining, was not all Nintendo could have made it. It was virtually the same as the N64 version, but with some new characters and some added features to the story mode. The racing speed is slow: not fast and exciting like Mario Kart. The game was also fairly easy and did not take long to beat. The vehicle controls are also very choppy. I recommend this game to younger kids because of the classic characters and comical action, but not to any gamers looking for a true racing game challenge.
However, I must be honest, I have not tried any multiplayer races, so if that kind of thing appeals to you in racing games, go ahead and check it out.
