Despite the appearance of Not-So-Tiny Kong.

Wasn't she supposed to be Dixie's younger sister, anyway? Yet Dixie appears much younger here. Ah, continuity-wrecks are always fun.

My little brother is taller than me. I even know siblings in which the younger is taller than the other.

I'm taller than my older brother.

Luigi is taller than Mario, and Mario is older.

What I wanna know id how Tiny got so tall to begin with. It might've been age, since DKR DS seems to be a sequel to the original based on the intro, but that still doesn't explain why all the other characters look exactly the same.

No, It's a port with a few gimmicks to fit the DS.

Thanks to this board, I've grown to hate the word "gimmick".

But, in this game, they really are useless gimmicks.

Also, Tiny Kong is called Tiny Kong not because she is always tiny, but because she can shrink to be very tiny. Nubs.

This is Rare's first DS game. It only makes sense that they don't get it right the first time. They're just experimenting.

Yeah, any game's first track editor is not going to be perfect. Though I say that, and Excitebike 64's track editor comes to mind.. Imagine something like that in a sequel to Mario Kart or DKRDS (where you get to pick things like track location and where the starting line is, and such..)

*daydreams about possibilites*

Reminds me of that Re-volt track editor from the dreamcast.
