Bumper may also have been set to make a reappearance in the canceled game ''[[Donkey Kong Racing]]''; as [[Taj the Genie]], a character from ''Diddy Kong Racing'' was going to appear in it. It is unknown if Bumper was going to appear in ''Diddy Kong Racing's'' cancelled Game Boy Advance sequel, ''[[Diddy Kong Pilot]]''.
Bumper reappears in the remake ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'' as a playable character once again and is relatively unchanged except for the fact that he sounds older and more mature than he did in the original.
