Code Access

    To access all of the codes, you need to beat entire adventure (one). After beating Wizpig (in either the first or second race), you'll open up the credits. Watch the credits cut-scenes at the end and before it finishes, a code, like "FreeFruit" will appear. Go to Options and enter them into the Magic Code List.

    Each time you beat Wizpig in either the first or second race, you will see a new code given. There are tons of them!


Free Fruit

    By beating Wizpig the second time, and after watching the screen credits, at the end you'll see the password, "FreeFruit." Enter this in to start with 10 bananas.


Future Funland

    To access Future Funland, the fifth world, you must place first in all of the Trophy Races and acquire the Wizpig Amulet. You don't need the TT amulet to access the fifth world, but once you're in Future Funland, you'll need it to race Wizpig again.

    Drive to the Trophy sign (near the Lighthouse) and park in front in of it to gain access. You will see your character enter into the lighthouse, which then turns into a rocketship and blasts off to space.


TT Amulet

    To access the TT room in World 5, containing the second race with Wizpig, you need to get all of the TT keys in each of the four worlds. The keys are in located in Ancient Lake, Dino Domain; Snowball Valley, Snowflake Mountain; Crescent Island, Sherbet Island; and Boulder Canyon, Dragon Forest.

Wizpig Amulet

    To piece together the full Wizpig amulet, you must race and beat each of the four bosses twice.

Turbo Start

    As in so many N64 racing games, Diddy's got a Turbo Start (like Wave Race, Mario Kart 64). Just after the high-voiced announcer says "Get Ready" and the words start to fade, press the acclereration button (A). You'll get a mighty boost.

    The boost is more powerful and lasts longer the later you enact it. But be careful not to start it too late or it won't work at all.
