Rare ended up creating a new version of Diddy Kong Racing for the DS back in 2007. What we didn’t know until this week is that another studio toyed around with the same game on Nintendo’s portable, albeit on a much smaller scale.

PtoPOnline unearthed a tech demo from Climax Studios that predates the launch of the DS by several months. We’re not sure if the company ever intended to pitch its own Diddy Kong Racing game, though it’s still pretty interesting to see. Note that Climax’s prototype and Rare’s final release on DS were completely unrelated.

Last year, Ground Shatter and Rising Star Games announced RICO. The first-person buddy cop shooter doesn’t have a release date yet, but we should be seeing it at some point in the near future.

We originally anticipated that RICO would only be an eShop release. However, it appears that a physical version is also in the cards. Best Buy and GameStop list the shooter on their websites along with tentative release dates of February 12 and January 29 respectively.

We’ll pass along the final release date for RICO as soon as we have it.
