Diddy Kong Racing: Cheat Codes, Hints, Unlockables, Easter Eggs, FAQs, Tips (Nintendo 64)

Turbo Start
When you start the race, wait as the 'get ready' fades and press A. If your timing is right, a blue fire will come out the back of your car, hovercraft or plane.

Space World:
Get all the trophys and go to the board near the lighthouse that tells you how many trophys you have. Honk your horn or ride behind it. The lighthouse was a rocket and will blast off revealing the space world.

Better Zipper Boost
Let go of the A button before you run over or through a zipper. Press the A button again as soon as the smoke goes away. You know you did it when your fire is green. Note: This also works with the blue balloons you pick up.

Unlock Drumstick
In adventure mode, defeat Wizpig for the 2nd time. After the credits are done, go back into adventure mode. Go near the Dragon Forest Entrance, but don't go in the water unless the frog with the comb is in the water. Flatten that frog out. Note: You might want to use the car.

Play as T.T
Select a racer. This is best with Pipsy the yellow mouse. Select T.T on. Beat every course one by one. If you're fast enough, you will race on time trail, then, you will race either T.T's ghost, which when you beat you can move on or your own ghost and beat your ghost, beat a certain amount of time and then go to T.T's ghost. Note: You must do this with all the tracks.

Notice: The preceding cheat codes, hints, tips, walkthroughs, unlockables, easter eggs, FAQs and secrets are currently all the game help that is in the cheatboy.co.uk database for Diddy Kong Racing. Because Cheat Boy does not have every game for Nintendo 64, it is impossible for use to check that every cheat on our website is correct. Also, for a small minority of games, it is the case that some of the cheats and tips listed above will only work on certain version(s) of the game, as occasionally the PAL, NTSC and Japanese versions of a game will not have the same cheats. It may also be the case that some cheats may have an undesired effect on your game which we do not know about yet, so it is strongly advised that if you can you save your game before using any of the cheat codes and other tips on this page.
