Mario Kart DS was the COOLEST One - DuoStuff

Ойындар

And here we are on the next stop on our DS Mario train... Or, Kart I guess? Mario Kart DS is easily one of the coolest games in the entire series, and I think it's time to give it a little love, don't you?

    I’m happy to see this. I love that you give recognition to so many wonderful Ds games. I remember when the DS was huge, and I miss those days. The Ds/Wii era feels so forgotten and underrated nowadays, which is saddening. Mariokart Ds is the greatest Mariokart game imo, and my favourite. I remember playing super circuit on gba with my sister, as my first Mariokart. We had a blast with it, but the game was also pretty frustrating. Mariokart Ds was such a remarkable improvement, and brought so much to the table. The characters and karts were awesome (ROB was my guy), and tracks like waluigis pinball or airship fortress were so cool, and such a blast to race on. The drifting mechanics, item placement, and item balance felt really good to me. Mariokart is always a big RNG fest with items, but this one felt fairer and less random than other games (looking at you Wii!). I loved having to master the racing mechanics to beat this game. Missions were a really unique mode. Some of them were quite challenging and pushed me to my limit as a player. Bosses being in Mariokart was just remarkable, and a lot of them felt fun and distinct from each other. My favourite thing was the battle mode, especially balloon battles. Block fort was an outstanding track, with the other battle tracks being great too. I loved the last man standing nature of the balloon battles, and the risk/reward nature in your number of balloons. Also, stealing cool coloured balloons to synergize with your balloon colour was awesome. As positive as you were towards the battles, I think they deserved a bit more love. They were fantastic! I found the battles were nowhere near as good in the sequels, though Mariokart 8 is a step in the right direction. I want battle stages from Ds to return, along with the last man standing feel. I spent so many hours playing this game with my siblings and friends. I also had a blast going solo, thanks to the mission and battle modes. Easily the best singleplayer Mariokart. I really hope to play this great game with other people someday. It’s been too long. I loved seeing you delve into this wonderful Mariokart game, and give it some of the love it deserves. It brought back a lot of good memories. I’d love to see you do a video on the masterpieces that were Heartgold and soulsilver. Also, I can’t wait to one day see a video on the fun as hell multiplayer of Prime hunters.

    I like how you barely glossed over the custom logo design option that they never brought back, but your kart logo is sans through the entire video. I also understand that they never brought the custom logo back because the graphics got better after the DS, but they could have implemented it like custom designs in Animal Crossing New Horizons, where it is pixel art in the design editor, but the pixels smooth out on the actual design, and maybe even made that an option so you could do that or make actual pixel art.
