Template:Character-infobox Tiptup (originally spelled TipTup) is a clumsy turtle originating from Diddy Kong Racing, who would later become a frequent, recurring minor character in the Banjo-Kazooie series.
In the Microsoft buy out of Rare Ltd., the rights of Tiptup were shifted completely to Microsoft. Despite being considered a Banjo-Kazooie series character, Tiptup managed to return in Diddy Kong Racing DS–this is unusual, as Banjo himself was not able to, for copyright complications.
History
Diddy Kong Racing
Tiptup is a playable driver in Diddy Kong Racing. He helps Timber, Pipsy and the others defend their home island from Wizpig. The pig tyrant flies back to his home planet, Future Fun Land, after being defeated by Tiptup and his friends. Tiptup and his allies follow, and defeat Wizpig for a second time. Tiptup's instrument theme is a xylophone or marimba.
Tiptup is one of only two lightweight racers, with the other one being Pipsy. His vehicles have very high acceleration attributes and good turning abilities, but their speed is rather low. His top speed without bananas is 54.67 mph.
Diddy Kong Racing DS
Tiptup also appears in the remake to the original, Diddy Kong Racing DS. He has a higher pitched voice in the game, and his characteristics are very slightly altered from the original game.
Mario no Bōken Land
Tiptup makes a small, non-speaking cameo in the Diddy Kong Racing segment of, Mario no Bōken Land, titled "Go Go Diddy!". He is shown to be competing in a race, in third place.
4-koma Gag Battle
Tiptup appears throughout the 4-koma Gag Battle manga adaptation of Diddy Kong Racing.
Profile and statistics
Diddy Kong Racing
- Diddy Kong Racing instruction manual: "(High acceleration, light weight, excellent handling, medium top speed) TipTup the turtle is another member of the close gorup of animal friends, but because of his nervous (and maybe even slightly clumsy) nature, he's never been particularly fond of the racing that the others seem to like so much. Now, though, he doesn't seem to have much choice!"
