DKR has a fantastic single player campaign so F yeah!
If DKR 2 becomes a thing, they better make the hoo-hah an item.
"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
I don't get it. Why wouldn't Nintendo already own the trademark to the name Diddy Kong? He's their IP.
Please no Diddy Kong Racing. That seems like the most unnecessary game to me. Even a Diddy Kong 3D platformer would be much better.

You're confusing concepts.
A trademark is a name or logo, not a character. They didn't trademark the character, Diddy Kong. They trademarked the name, "Diddy Kong". This is usually done when a game or other product using that name is going to be released.
That being said, they've had Diddy Kong trademarked in Europe since 1995, just as in the US, because of Diddy's Kong Quest. But there have been some more recent trademarks, and Diddy Kong has gotten a new trademark, hence the speculation.
Curiously, some other Nintendo-related trademarks I found that have been registered in the last few months include "Hyrule" (not Hyrule Warriors, which they've had since middle of 2014), "Donkey Kong", "The Legend of Zelda", "Mario Bros.", "Polarium", "Virtual Boy", "QUDY", and "Qudii".
