Double-dash is loving awesome and I think it's my favorite if it isn't 8 Deluxe. I started on the SNES and played Battle Mode mostly with my sister. Koopa Troopa was my dude as well and I get the pain. I never played MK64. I don't have Online Expansion + I may get it eventually... I'm still on the fence. Double-dash was what got me good into Mario Kart though and it was probably the only other game that held our attention against Melee at the time (aside from Ribbit King and Top Shop). I got into MK DS a bit but I was never that good at it. And now I'm back with MK 8 Deluxe. It's excellent and I think I'm pretty ok at it, though there's two cups I still need to get perfect in on 150cc, so I have yet to touch 200cc. I'll have to check which one's they are but one has that Dragon Circuit and I think the other is the new Rainbow Road. I'll get there eventually. Bleck posted:Diddy Kong Racing I would sincerely love an elaboration on this. I know it's adored by many and was maybe a MK killer at the time? They remade it but it was terrible? I've never played other kart racers. Many have tried but none have come close to MK. Omnikin posted:On a side note ask me about how much I loving hate items in Mario Kart and wish there was an online mode that prohibited those (standard, non-tourney or whatever) Yeah... but it really wouldn't be Mario Kart. I think Deluxe definitely has a very tight racing mechanics, but Double-dash felt too arcadey to be legitimate, but I really don't know.

Silver Falcon posted:Diddy Kong Racing is a kart racer with a story mode, starring Diddy Kong, Banjo, Conker, and various other Rare OCs that only appear in that game. Awesome write-up. Thank you. My PS1 owning best friend had CTR. We played it a bit and it was fun. It was definitely that generation's Kart game for me, as I never got MK 64. I got my N64 near the end of the cycle with Majora's Mask and Smash 64. Then the GC got got for Melee and I eventually got Double Dash, which is unquestionably a blast. I'm happy they have that Yoshi Circuit in 8 Deluxe because I love that track. I rolled with Koopa and Parakoopa ideally, maybe taking Yoshi, who was my go-to the few times I played MK64. Great weapons and great team.

Well maybe knowing what they're going up against they figured they didn't stand a chance so they might as well go for broke and try very hard for every last cent.

We played far more of the kart mini game in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle than it deserved.

FINALLY beat Mirror Mode 3 Starring the whole thing. Gotta do 200cc now and WOAH. It's a trip. It's good stuff though. I can finally play Koopa again. I'm going to wrap these up and get the DLC. I'm happy this has gotten into Mario Kart again.
