This is a Switch comparison. Of course the ps4/xbox versions look better. I'll discuss this in my final review. This is simply a comparison of two games running on the same platform. This helps to fairly determine what the developers were able to accomplish when limited by the exact same hardware. And for the record, i always preferred Crash Team Racing, its one of my all time favorites! But these are the similarities a differences between the two when running on the Switch Correction: mario kart 8 DOES have stats for each character. These are not shown ingame clearly, but they do have different attributes. Thanks to the early viewers below who caught this!

As someone who's played countless hours of MK8 since it's initial release on the Wii U, and has obsessively played CTR since he was four or five years old (and has just as obsessively played Nitro-Fueled since its release on Friday), here's my suggestion: If you want a racing game for family night where the learning curve is merely a judgement of how good you are with parabolas, then get Mario Kart. If you want a competitive game with a faster pace, higher difficulty, and bigger learning curve, but that gets funner the more you learn, then get CTR.

CTR has a very clear difference between casual and pro play because of the boost mechanics but it's not that hard to get to that point.

This however definitely has its appeal after you get used to it and its boost systems feel a lot more satisfying (while not really being that mechanically different). So it is worth giving credit that this gameplay still holds up. I do think it's a big disappointment the game isn't running at 60 FPS at any system. It'd be somewhat understandable if just the Switch port failed to do so but it clearly hasn't been a priority for the designers.

I was about to mention this too. I understand why he might not think that the racer you choose affects your stats, because the game does not make it apparent that they do, but his statement was still incorrect. But it was a pretty strange design decision by Nintendo to show stats on the parts selection screen and not the character select. Older games never showed stats either, though I believe that the manuals for most Mario Kart games mentioned that lighter characters control differently than heavier ones. Unfortunately, Mario Kart 8 doesn't have a manual, so a player would never know this unless they had played previous games and assumed that the same rules apply here, or if they happened across the information online. RIP video game instruction manuals. I will miss them, especially when being forced to play through a tutorial.

@systemafunk

They aren't entirely hidden though, and if he played the games for any length of time, he should have seen that different characters will show different stats when in the Kart selection screen. The game just doesn't tell you character stats independently. You have to look at the end result and choose your Kart to suit your choice of character.

@kevinr417

@@systemafunk Yeah, I suppose most people who played MK8 long enough would eventually notice that the same kart parts give different stats depending on the driver, but I didn't notice this myself for a good while. I just wasn't paying that much attention at first, mainly because I kept unlocking new parts pretty regularly at the beginning. In any case, you can generally use certain parts to compensate for an attribute a driver might be lacking, so it's not a huge deal which driver you pick unless you really want to max out a particular attribute. For example, once I started trying to make my racer have as much speed as possible, I immediately noticed that lighter drivers' max speed only went so high, no matter which parts I chose. But perhaps the video author hasn't gotten that deep into the details of MK8.

@systemafunk

@@kevinr417 It's true. You can for the most part pick the character that you want. Also, most heavier drivers have higher top speed, but worse overall stats, so most racers can perform well in most situations, especially when balanced out with the Kart. I think I noticed it early on, but I also got a little bit OCD and made a spreadsheet of all the characters and kart parts and stats so I could try and find combinations that offered max stats without sacrificing too much speed, or prioritizing certain other stats. My favorite combination in terms of feel and stats is probably Shy Guy with the Wiggler car. Can't remember what wheels though off the top of my head.

@Hipster Dinosaur Yeah, I mean that was one of the first things I checked. I remember when they changed how heavy characters worked between the original Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64 to the point where there was actually no reason to use the heavier characters in 64. Ever since I have checked what they did with heavy versus light characters. I'm glad they are back to having heavy characters be faster overall, but with light characters having other benefits such as better boosts and drifting, and heavy characters having better off road speed to make up for having less acceleration. It makes either better for veteran players depending on the stage and how you want to play. Light characters are precise and great if you are good at staying on the road and using boosts all the time, but not as fast. Heavy characters don't suffer as much if you go off the track, but can get better top speed if you can keep them there. Light characters seem to be more ideal for stages with a lot of walls or drops, heavy characters for stages with lots of hazards and surface changes.

CTR requires you master the tracks and mechanics to come in first place. The computer players show no mercy. This challenge creates a much more satisfying experience.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: Running the 90s Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled: Deja vu

My biggest qualm with the MK8 drift is that, from appearance, it seems you can drift infinitely if given the space. I very much appreciate CTRNF for punishing you for not being in control of your drift. Also, with the hop mechanic, I love being able to do an air brake u-turn on some of the tighter courses.

I just like how I finally have a good kart racing game again on playstation, haven't had that since the original CTR. Nintendo has been the only option for kart racing for so many years. And I like playing Mario Kart 8 at my sister's place, it's a luxury problem to have two great kart racers I suppose, no such thing as too many good games. And hey, competition is what pushes developers to do their best and not get lazy. Not that Mario Kart 8 deluxe is in any way lazy, it's a beautiful innovative game but I do believe the makers of CTR nitro fueled clearly have done their utmost best to be a solid alternative for Mario Kart, they put in the extra effort to really compete. And for the next Mario Kart, Nintendo might be taking note of some stuff CTR Nitro fueled is doing well.

Most your arguements are relatively reasonable, however the track advantage of Mariokart you didn't take into account timeframes and series age. MarioKart used tracks from many more games than CTR and a larger number of those tracks were DLC which you did state. CTR added almost all tracks from the only two games in the franchise prior, people do not count Tag team racing as it was not a good game, and made with a whole different style. CTR just came out, and has almost all tracks in the franchise. while mariokart had many tracks in DLC, as well as a larger list of tracks to choose from across all it's iterations. also, speaking from experience. the Zero G aspect being removed is a fantastic change in CTRNF as the physics of the Zero G in CNK were horrid. by removing that aspect of the tracks, and redesigning them, brought a much needed change to those tracks. As a CTR Veteran, the lack of the Zero Gravity was better for the game as a whole, and brought about some of the best track designs in the franchise so far. Electron Avenue for example, was a nightmare of a track in CNK. but in CTRNF it is now my favorite course by far.

However, more content will added to Nitro Fueled and they will also remade CTTR tracks in the future. It's confirmed.

However, it make the game a lot easy and you will win almost every race, what make the experience somewhat boring. Mario kart, on the other hand, initially is funny. Then you master it, what make it more funny. However, mastering it doesn't make you win every race, what make every race seems like a challenge, making the game not boring.

CTR 1999 is the same as Super Smash Bro Melee, both series function purely on the excellent mechanics built into the games without the need of constant tweaks. The games get better as the players get better. They are both games you can pick up and play today and still have a blast, those games never go out of style.

Some of the items are notably different in CTR. Here's the ones with significant changes: The missile is basically a red shell with no defense, more limited homing range, and linear tracking. It's less OP. The bomb is basically a green shell with no bank shot and worse defense and speed, but it can be detonated for easier hits. It can also be used to open item boxes... It's more newbie friendly up close but much weaker at range. The shield is closest to a triple green shell. It provides REAL defense, OR melee damage, OR a projectile (trading your defense), but disappears after a while. The juiced up version lasts forever and is a little OP. TNT crates are more interactive than fake boxes, but fairly weak. Nitro boxes are good though. The beaker is basically a banana peel. The juiced up version temporarily reduces speed/handling or reduces speed and forces an item reroll. Turbo is basically mushroom, except it's always useful due to the reserve system. Warp orb is basically blue shell, but the juiced up version hunts EVERYONE! Also, braking in 1st place isn't useful against this, encouraging the leading player to maintain their speed. Invisibility (battle exclusive) is like boo, but doesn't steal items :( Overall CTR's items are more balanced.

And to think CTR was made in an attempt to kill off and destroy the Crash series.

One thing you missed is that CTR DOES have multiple different objectives in battle mode, from regular free for all battle and team battles to capture the flag and many others.

Really good video! I was ready to throw Crash Team Racing to a trash can as I thought it can't match Mario Kart 8 after seeing some gameplay. Seems like you once again could change my mind about a game. When it comes to PC, I'll definitely grab it.

A thing about Mk8 deluxe: the characters can effect your play, they have different weight which have advantages and disadvantages but it doesn’t have any effect really.

I've seen many possible shortcuts in CTR: NF and some are really well hidden. That and the way the boosting is handled, makes me believe that victory in CTR: NF will mostly depend on your driving skills and items are there to give you a quick advantage while in Mario Kart 8 the items a lot of the time, act as a complete game changer because everything can fall apart very quickly because of the items. I prefer racing games where victory is mostly dependent on your ability to drive and take shortcuts.

This so so much, MK online as I said's fucking tailor-made for camping and item spamming, maybe 30% of the time you'll win by just outracing everyone.

I will always prefer CTR over Mario Kart, it just feels more fun. And the shortcuts that i love about CTR is that, the shortcuts that now the Time Trial AI takes, were not Shortcuts originaly, those were discovered by Players, the Papu Papu jump at the end? the AI never took those paths, hell, 7/10 times taking that jump would instead mess you up, the Polar one jumping over the water? Also not a registered shortcut at first, but us players Made it one, and the developers acknowledged it.

I know that your comment was years ago but i want to clarify that the papupapu jump at the near end was not new. It was something i learned from oxide while fighting him on PS1. But i think you are right about the polar, since i used that to defeat him and i dont remember him using it or learning it from him.

Honestly I really like both of these games. When I was a kid I missed out on Mario Kart, but got to play CTR to death and I looooooved it. Both of these are very good and even though I do consider Mario to be the 'ultimate' arcade cart racer CTR:NF is seriously severely underrated because CTR is extremely satisfying to play, however it could do with a 60fps mode on the consoles tbh. Would definitely help with even more responsive inputs.

One thing about the lighting is that Mario Kart focuses a lot more on making sure the player can see and distinguish gameplay elements like characters, powerups, coins, etc. at a glance, which is why the lighting is less intensive. While I've been enjoying CTR a lot, there have been many times where stuff relevant to the gameplay itself was difficult to see because of it not standing out due to all of the lighting effects. Like the letter in Mystery caves' lava section for the coin challenge. I flat out did not see it for like 5 attempts because it blended in too much with everything around it.

Both games are great. I prefer Mario Kart personally though, due to the (imo) better track designs and music, and slightly better online.

oDie237 It’s not even comparable imo. CTRs music is good for what it is but the insanely over the top guitars and horns and thematically appropriate music based on each course in Mario Kart is so much better

I don't think any game can be compared to the legend that CTR is but it's nice to see the differences.

Great and thorough comparison video! And I've been saying this for a couple years now but... The world is ready for a new Diddy Kong Racing! C'mon Ninty and Rare, it'd give Mario and Crash a real run for their money💪🏻

Man, don’t count with Rare! They won’t touch anything they made in the past with Nintendo (at least it’s what it seems). Just see this enormous gigantic hiatus in Banjo! They did nothing to the franchise, even after the ridiculous success of Banjo in Smash Ultimate! Maybe we could have some hope with Microsoft, but Rare specifically will do nothing about it!

in Crash Team Racing, you can defend yourself against rockets with boxes and bottles, and even blow up a bomb behind you, destroying the rocket. And you can attack with armor by shooting it forward
