Donkey Kong Racing

Donkey Kong Racing was a cancelled Donkey Kong game sequel to Diddy Kong Racing. Not much was revealed about Donkey Kong Racing except that it was going to be a Gamecube game and that it would feature new Animal Buddies such as a gigantic Rambi and a purple Enguarde.

Unlike Diddy Kong Pilot and Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers, Donkey Kong Racing was never confirmed as cancelled, but due to the lack of information on the game's development for several years the game has been termed "unofficially" cancelled.

Confirmed characters in the game included Donkey Kong, Tiny Kong, Diddy Kong, Taj the Genie and Kiddy Kong. Rideable creatures seen were Rambi the Rhino, a gigantic sized Rambi, a small red Rambi, Enguarde the Swordfish, a purple Enguarde, Ellie the Elephant and some Zingers. Creatures rumored to be rideable include Expresso the Ostrich, a Chomps shark, a Necky and an Army.

It is unknown if all the characters from Diddy Kong Racing were going to reappear in this game, but with the inclusion of Taj it seems likely. It is also unknown if any other character from the Donkey Kong Country/Land series and Donkey Kong 64 would appear.

It was rumored that the cancelled X-Box, Sabreman Stampede was a reformatted version of Donkey Kong Racing.
