Due to Rare's acquisition by {{wp|Microsoft}}, [[Banjo]] and [[Conker]] were replaced by [[Tiny Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] respectively, although [[Tiptup]] was kept in the game, despite his appearances in several ''Banjo-Kazooie'' games. [[Nintendo]] owns the copyright to the original ''Diddy Kong Racing'' game code and Microsoft had never entered the handheld gaming market, therefore allowing Rare to work on the game with Nintendo for the DS. This is the final game created by Rare to feature a character from a Nintendo franchise. | Due to Rare's acquisition by {{wp|Microsoft}}, [[Banjo]] and [[Conker]] were replaced by [[Tiny Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] respectively, although [[Tiptup]] was kept in the game, despite his appearances in several ''Banjo-Kazooie'' games.
