VRROOOMMM.... WELCOME TO....well...my review of Mario Kart! In this review, you'll see why I love this game...and you must try it for yourself... EDIT:Why is the game above showing Super Smash Bros? Ignore thatStory: 7/10
The story about this wonderful game is about our favorite Mario characters grinding the road in a special Mario Kart game. The gang must race in go-karts in thrilling stages to win a trophy to take home. (Or brag about it to Peach in Mario 64) This is basically the whole story like any other Mario Kart games. These characters will get their tires moving in 16 special courses. They shall conquer them all. They will do so in this game. WELCOME TO MARIO KART.Depth: 8/10This game as said, very good, offers lots of special requirements. To start off here, we have power ups that will help you on your quest (or race) to get the gold. We have the banana peel. If placed, it will stay on the race track. If someone drives into it, they will slow down, and also swirl around in their go-kart. Now...the green shell. First appearance was Super Mario Bros, obviously. If used, it will go flying on the road. If it manages to hit somebody's go-kart, the same effect from the banana will come to them. The red shell is the same as the green shell, but if you're in a certain radius behind someone, enabled, it will target them and hit them. The spiked and deadly blue shell will hit whoever is in first place. It can accidentally help the player in second place, but you can catch up. The A I for the CPUs aren't that good in this game. The power star will give you invulnerability for a limited time. If you touch a player's go-kart...same effect from the banana peel. You can also go through cars in Toad's Turnpike in the Flower Cup. The triple banana/red shell/green shell gives you three of said item. The fake item box looks like a regular item box. If touched...SAME effect as said. Should you want to easily trick a CPU, place the fake item box in any patch of real item boxes...or somehow get five fake ones in a row, and block the road with them. Now on to the playable characters. Our favorite stars, Mario, Luigi, Toad, Peach, Yoshi, DK, Bowser, Wario, and Yoshi. The 16 courses in this game are pretty unique, if I do say so myself. They are: Luigi's Raceway, Moo Moo Farm, Koopa Troopa Beach, and Kalimari Desert in the Mushroom Cup. In the burning Flower Cup, we have Toad's Turnpike, Frappe Snowland, Choco Mountain, and Mario's Raceway. In the Star Cup of truth, we have Wario Stadium, Sherbet Land, Royal Raceway, and Bowser's Castle. In the beloved Special Cup, we have DK's Jungle Parkway, Yoshi Valley, Banshee Boardwalk, and the course we all know and love...Rainbow Road.Difficulty: 9/10The A I for the CPUs can sometimes be challenging. The controls can be slippery, and this game is good for people that want a challenge. First place in Toad's Turnpike or in any other course in 150 Cc is only reserved for the best Mario Kart players.Addictiveness: 8/10This racing game full of wonders can get very addicting when you play it on the actual N64. This game is big in depth, has decent difficulty, and has a fun genre. I'd say this is one of the most addicting games ever to play in the retro universe. I highly recommend this game to be played on the original N64 to get a friend and play together.Sound: 10/10Don't even go there. The audio?compression from this game is remarkable. The music is good too. I like the sound effects, and they just give you the nostalgia we would've gotten if the COD developers never existed!  . What, you thought I was kidding about that last statement??But anyways, this game has lots of themes and sound effects that feel nice listening to. This is why I rate is a perfect ten.
Graphics: 9/10
The graphics in the game are pretty good. Of course it's a N64 game, so it needs all the polygons. But overall, the graphics are pretty unique. It makes you miss when video games were happy and cartoony and not aggressive. Luckily, we have SOME games like this one. But this one right here...has outstanding graphics, I'll tell you that.
Overall: 9.1/10
This game's graphics, sound, addictive rate, and every thing about it molds this racing game into success. I wish these games still sold in stores. Luckily I have a copy of this game from when I was a kid. This game is molded into perfection by Nintendo...and obviously the help from the directer, Shigeru Miyamoto.? VRROOOMMM....
