Banjo's official debut was as one of the playable characters in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. He was among the characters who responded to [[Timber]]'s call for help in banishing [[Wizpig]] out from [[Timber's Island]]. Banjo competed in races and world challenges to decide who can ultimately compete against Wizpig. Banjo is in the heavyweight class and has slow acceleration, but compensates it with a high top speed. He also has average handling capabilities. Banjo's top speed without Bananas is 57mph.

Banjo's theme instrument is the banjo, which is also his theme instrument in his own series. Banjo and [[conkerwiki:Conker the Squirrel|Conker]] did not return in ''[[mariowiki:Diddy Kong Racing DS|Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'' as a result of [[Microsoft]]'s 2002 acquisition of [[Rare]], although the remake's main theme still features his theme instrument, the banjo. Statistically, Banjo was replaced with [[mariowiki:Tiny Kong|Tiny Kong]].

Banjo appears as the titular character of the racing spinoff title, ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]''. He has the most average stats in the game, aside from [[Mumbo Jumbo]]. Banjo is the champion of Beehive Cup, where the player competes against him at the end, in the dogfight match "Banjo Brawl". Like the other characters, Banjo drops a different projectile behind him in the match, replacing and functioning identically to [[Ice Egg]]s. In his case, he uses [[Washing Machine]]s.
