Anyone pick up Diddy Kong Racing for the DS? - Page 2

They changed Pirate Lagoon's/Treasure Caves' BGM and removed the ability to loop and barrel roll in the plane. Also, the custom Wish tracks have only one format. I disapprove.

Whose crazy idea was it to utilize the Touch Screen for the startup boosts?

Gamespot's review:

I wouldn't take it too seriously though, I'm not the biggest fan of Gamespot's reviews, always a bit pessimistic.

Check out their review of the original DKR. They gave it an even lower score.

It's great, except I wasn't expecting to have to get the boost on the touch screen like that and I'm slowly working my way through the different courses...
