Advantages: Huge Game...lots to do!

Disadvantages: Some characters in hovercraft...far too sensitive to handle!

Animal friends Diddy and Co. race to beat away the bully Wizpig...who has ruined T.T the clocks race island.

It's truly a great game...as any N64 gamer will no. Loads of courses...characters...challenges...and collectables make this a true winner. Race in hovercraft, car and plane through different race worlds and take on bosses...racers and challenges...all wonderfully designed and great to experience. The races are too easy to beat in races, but when coming to the lights of the silver coin challenges and boss races, things are stepped up a gear.

It may be an old game for an aging console...but who cares! It's still a classic and defiantly worth picking up. There's plenty to do and last a long time...with loads of tracks...surprises...cheats and unlockables. The graphics a good and you don't need a memory pack...the multi player games are great fun for you and your friends to!.

Character Pipsy though is very sensitive when in hover...and she as a character because of her sensitivity can get a bit annoying. Some of the heavier weight drivers are harder to handle...but there normally the faster ones believe it or not. Unlocking racing wiz T.T is tough...really tough! But it's worth it...I’ve done it and he races like a dream...but isn't the easiest to handle...as with all of the best racers...it takes a lot of skill to be able to control them!. Racing Wizpig himself is heart pounding experience...and memorable once beaten.

There are many other games similar to this...but none of them compare to this racing wonderful! And yes it easily rivals Mario Kart!. (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

Summary: It may be old, but see it BUY IT!
