1.3 Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.

Diddy Kong's hat has had the Nintendo logo on it since Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. Deciding to simply rename the character, who Rare felt was perfect for their updated version of Donkey Kong's world, Rare at first decided on the name 'Dinky Kong', but due to unspecified legal issues settled on the name Diddy Kong.

Not liking the radical changes Rare had made to Donkey Kong Jr., Nintendo told them that they could either use Donkey Kong Jr.'s original appearance for Donkey Kong Country or rename their new version of him. He is Donkey Kong's nephew and sidekick in certain games.ĭuring the development of Donkey Kong Country, Diddy was originally meant to be an updated version of Donkey Kong Jr. He lives on Donkey Kong Island, and can be easily identified from his red hat, which has a Nintendo logo on it, and red shirt.

Diddy Kong (ディディーコング, Diidī Kongu in Japanese) is a character and the deuteragonist of the Donkey Kong franchise, in which he debuts in Donkey Kong Country.
