Wizpig started on his home planet, which he turned into the amusement park known as Future Fun Land. He soon became bored with this and started wandering the galaxy. Wizpig made his way through various planets, taking them over and continuously racing and cheating to win, until he would get bored again and move on to another planet.

Wizpig started on his home planet, turning it into the amusement park known as Future Fun Land, but he soon got bored and started wandering the galaxy. Wizpig wandered from planet to planet, taking them over and continuosly racing and cheating to win until he got bored again and moved on to the next planet.
  
This pattern eventually brought Wizpig to take over [[Timber's Island]], a whole island full of racers, in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. He imprisoned most of the island's inhabitants, took over the mountain and kicked out [[Characters in Diddy Kong Racing#Taj|Taj]] the genie. He also hypnotized four of the island's best racers into becoming his lieutenants. He gave each underling a quarter of the Wizpig Amulet, which when united would open the path to his lair. Wizpig also turned [[Characters in Diddy Kong Racing#Drumstick|Drumstick]] into a frog after he challenged Wizpig to a fair race.

And he turned [[Characters in Diddy Kong Racing#Drumstick|Drumstick]] into a frog when he challenged Wizpig to a fair race.  
  
Eventually, the Wizpig Amulet was assembled by a crew of young racers led by [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Characters in Diddy Kong Racing#Timber Tiger|Timber]]. They chose their best racer to race Wizpig through a canyon. In this first race, Wizpig ran on foot and flew for some distances. After being defeated a first time, he retreated in his spaceship to Future Fun Land, but the other racers followed him there. He only allowed the racers to challenge him to a rematch after they completed all the courses once and then completed them again with the Silver Coin Challenge.

Wizpig rode a rocket in the final race. After losing again, his rocket veered offcourse and crashed into a planetoid. His spaceship was later seen flying through the sky in the credits, hinting at a possible return.

Wizpig rode a rocket in the final race. Af6ter losing again, his rocket veered offcourse and crashed into a planetoid, resulting in Wizpig's supposed death. However, in the ending he was hinted at being alive in a spaceship shaped like his head.
 
 
In the remake, ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'', Wizpig could be unlocked as a playable racer by completing Adventure Mode 2. However, this was a scaled-down version of Wizpig for the purpose of fitting into game's vehicles. His stats, which were identical to Taj's, gave him the highest speed level (which was only shared by T.T.) but with the lowest acceleration and handling.
