[edit] Diddy Kong

Diddy Kong is a male monkey from the Donkey Kong Country series (released in 1994). Diddy Kong appears on his own in the Nintendo 64 version of this game, without his Kong brethren.

[edit] Banjo

Banjo the male bear from the Banjo-Kazooie (series) (released in 1998). This is the first appearance of Banjo in any game, before the creation of even the Banjo-Kazooie series (this is due to delays in that game's release date).[citation needed] Banjo's partner, Kazooie is not seen in this game, but she is mentioned in the instruction manual and can also be heard yelling after Banjo's vehicle collides with an object.

[edit] Conker

Conker the male squirrel from Conker's Pocket Tales (released in 1999). Conker wears a blue vest with a yellow cape, and blue and yellow sneakers. Conker is much more innocent in this game than he is in his later games, Conker's Bad Fur Day and Conker: Live & Reloaded.

[edit] Krunch

Krunch is a male Kremling (the antagonists of the Donkey Kong Country series) who ends up wrapped up in the effort to kick Wizpig off the island. His clothing style was carried over to several of the Kremling enemies in Donkey Kong 64 (released in 1999).

[edit] Tiptup

Tiptup the male turtle has a high acceleration, a low top speed, and good handling. He also makes cameo appearances in the games Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie.

[edit] Timber

Timber the orange and black-striped male tiger. His parents leave on vacation and leave him to watch Timber Island. Wizpig invades and Timber gets all his friends to help him out.

[edit] Bumper

Bumper the black male badger.

[edit] Pipsy

Pipsy the yellow female mouse. In this version of the game, she is the only female character, and in the Nintendo DS remake, Dixie Kong and Tiny Kong are the two additional females that replaced Banjo and Conker, who were excluded from the remake due to Rare, the company that created them, being bought by Microsoft.

[edit] Drumstick

Drumstick the male rooster, one of the greatest racers on Timber's Island.

[edit] T.T.

T.T. is a living stopwatch who helped organize Time Trials. If players beat his records on every track, he becomes a playable character.
