• What's a Diddy Kong?
• Donkey Kong's buddy is now a very cool Super Mario Plush Doll!
• Diddy even brings his trademark red cap!

Diddy Kong is Donkey Kong's buddy and companion that has gone on countless adventures with him. Diddy has also gone adventuring by himself, and has even starred in his own racing game for the Nintendo 64 and later for the Nintendo DS. He is a creation of the British company Rare, Ltd. but has a Nintendo logo on his trademarked red hat, probably to signify the publisher of the entire Donkey Kong series. The name "Diddy" is a slang word used in some parts of northern England for "small," which Diddy is.
