Adrian tells us how he had to choose a kart racer for his newly purchased N64 and thankfully went for Diddy Kong Racing over a certain other kart racer which shall not be named (ok, Mario Kart 64). Rob thinks he should have chosen the other. Let's hope this ends well...

Diddy Kong Racing is a racing game with similarities to Mario Kart 64, in that you race with a variety of cheery racers while using weapons. However, the similarities end there. DKR includes an adventure mode, which features bosses, an overworld to explore, many hidden secrets, the addition of hovercrafts and planes, and a unique way of racing called the "Silver Coin Challenge". In this mode, in addition to coming first, you must also find the eight Silver Coins deviously hidden throughout the courses (some in alternate paths).

While listening to how Diddy Kong Racing was made, please enjoy a playthrough of this classic Rare game.
