Tiptup
Template:Character-infobox Tiptup is a clumsy turtle originating from Diddy Kong Racing, who would later make appearances with Banjo in the Banjo-Kazooie series. He managed to make a return for Diddy Kong Racing DS, though Banjo and Conker did not (due to the rights to the characters by Rare Ltd. being sold to Microsoft). It is possible that he was inspired by the Koopa Troopa, or even is one.
History
Diddy Kong Racing
Tiptup is a playable driver in Diddy Kong Racing. He helps Timber, Pipsy and 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.
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, but otherwise his characteristics are identical with the original title.
