Diddy Kong Pilot (unreleased) Game

Ever wonder what happens when you mix Diddy Kong Racing’s chaotic charm with the portable thrills of the Game Boy Advance? Diddy Kong Pilot (originally planned as Banjo-Pilot) was Rare’s wild attempt to turn the beloved kart racer into a high-flying adventure—starring Diddy Kong and crew in planes instead of karts! Imagine zipping through vibrant, obstacle-packed skies, pulling off risky barrel rolls, and lobbing bananas at your friends (because what’s a DK game without a little fruit-based sabotage?). Though it never officially took off, this unreleased gem was set to bring the same quirky humor and tight controls that made Rare’s games legendary. For fans of Diddy Kong Racing or anyone craving a slice of lost GBA history, this one’s a tantalizing "what if?"—proof that even canceled games can fuel decades of nostalgia.
