Trivia

Astro Mouse, the basis for Pipsy's design.
The early "Astro Mouse" design.
  • Pipsy's design was born out of a canceled game project called Astro Mouse. After the plans to make Astro Mouse a full game fell through, its main character was redesigned by Rare Ltd. artist Kevin Bayliss and included in Diddy Kong Racing as Pipsy.[1]
