Tiptup
Tiptup (originally spelled TipTup) is a clumsy turtle originating from Diddy Kong Racing, who would later become a frequent, recurring minor character in the Banjo-Kazooie series. In the Microsoft buy out of Rare Ltd., the rights of Tiptup were shifted completely to Microsoft. Despite being considered a Banjo-Kazooie series character, Tiptup managed to return in Diddy Kong Racing DS–this is unusual, as Banjo himself was not able to, for copyright complications. ContentsHistory[edit]Diddy Kong Racing[edit]Tiptup is a playable driver in Diddy Kong Racing. He helps Timber, Pipsy and the others defend their home island from Wizpig. The pig tyrant flies back to his home planet, Future Fun Land, after being defeated by Tiptup and his friends. Tiptup and his allies follow, and defeat Wizpig for a second time. Tiptup's instrument theme is a xylophone or marimba. Tiptup is one of only two lightweight racers, with the other one being Pipsy. His vehicles have very high acceleration attributes and good turning abilities, but their speed is rather low. His top speed without bananas is 54.67 mph. Diddy Kong Racing DS[edit]Tiptup also appears in the remake to the original, Diddy Kong Racing DS. He has a higher pitched voice in the game, and his characteristics are very slightly altered from the original game. Mario no Bōken Land[edit]Tiptup makes a small, non-speaking cameo in the Diddy Kong Racing segment of, Mario no Bōken Land, titled "Go Go Diddy!". He is shown to be competing in a race, in third place. 4-koma Gag Battle[edit]Tiptup appears throughout the 4-koma Gag Battle manga adaptation of Diddy Kong Racing.
