Game Description

A bloated space pig has taken over Diddy Kong's island paradise, and it's up to you to stop his terrible plot! Explore the island as you drive, hover, and fly around the massive environment. Advance the story, talk to interesting characters, visit new locations, and search for hidden secrets, all while you take on other drivers in the race challenges of a lifetime. Take the fun online as you race up to seven other players using Wi-Fi. Create your own tracks using the Touch Screen-based Wish Race mode, then throw it up and challenge your friends on your perfect track.
