A Winner Is You
A Winner Is You Podcast Episode 48: 25 Years of Diddy Kong Racing
It’s finally time for one of the most nailed-on games we’ve ever covered. Alex’s dream of talking about how he’s loved DKR for 25 years has come true at last, and you get to join us for almost two hours of fun.
We begin by chatting about the game’s development, its difficulty and uniqueness in its genre, and its reception and legacy. We also discuss the different characters and bosses and how much joy/pain they respectively gave us.
The main event comes in the second half of the pod, as you are cordially invited to a Diddy Kong Racing Dance Party! We rank every track’s theme (including a few bonus songs) on our individual tier lists from our very own Nintendo 64 nightclub. Get Ready… Go!
