Donkey Kong Racing

Template:Gamebox Donkey Kong Racing is an unreleased video game that was to be released for the Nintendo GameCube back in 2002. However, due to Rare's move to Microsoft and their loss of rights to the Donkey Kong series, it was canceled. This game was also going to be one of the sequels to Diddy Kong Racing, and Diddy Kong Pilot, which was also canceled. Not much is known about this game, except that it was going to have a variety of Animal Buddies as "vehhicles", with alternative colors and sizes. The other cancelled DK games aside from this one are Diddy Kong Pilot which was reworked into Banjo-Pilot and Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers which was reworked into Its Mr. Pants.

Due to the presence of Taj the Genie, it can be speculated that other characters from Diddy Kong Racing may have been planned. It is unsure whether Banjo the Bear or Conker the Squirrel would be expected, since they have both developed separate series (the latter targeting a diffrent age group entirely).
