you got a lot of time to vote in 98 days
-
which one do you think is the best....
[DONT READ THE TOP ONE]
-
Don't read the top what? The top option in the poll?
-
.....I can't vote for Super Mario Kart?
-
I'd actually have to say MKDS.
SMK: The first one. Classic, but it doesn't hold up well against time.
MK64: Same here, but it's a little better.
MKSC: I can't tell what's going on in that game.
MKDD: The best? Maybe so, but the whole doubling-up thing was a little convoluted.
-
no i mean dont read the you have 98 days message. geeze

I see no geese.
What I DO see is a pencil above my own posts. You see it above yours? Click it to EDIT your posts.

MKDS, but MK64 will always have a special place in my heart, since it was my first Mario Kart game.
-
I'm sorry masterx but your punctuation and failure to capitalize the letter "I" are both starting to bug me. I mean, no offense...it just might help us to read your posts a little better.

no i mean dont read the you have 98 days message. geeze
Why did you even have the limit on how long you could vote? Are you predicting that a new Mario Kart game will be released by then, thus rendering this poll obsolete?
-
Future members here won't be able to reply to the poll.

Why did you close it?
-
I`m sorry MaxVance I didn`t mean to close it.I meant to stop the replys. SORRY!!
-
SORRY everyone I didn`t mean to close the poll I meant to stop the posts.
-
...And you just posted the same thing twice.
-
Why would you want to stop the posts anyway? That's mod territory, you should be thankful for what you've got. Whippersnapper. Why, in Ethiopia they don't even have a whole car for a thousand people! They have eight tenths of a car!

SMK: Very fun. Hate the fact you're instantly slowed down or killed if someone hits you. The cheating AI problem has started, and they like to buzz around like bees when you get near. The circuit songs were the best. I love the SFX that plays when you hit someone with a redshell..very funny..jumping bumps in the chocolate valley areas, and the classic SMB jump SFX when you hit a huge jump or hop. I love the star music... as with almost every game.
MK64: Pretty fun. I like the text for actions such as the "boing" and Deezer's refrigerator "Whirrrrrr." The 2.5D deal was trippy, but worked. Attractive tracks and music. I like how the bells for the crossing gates (Kalimari) were based off Japanese train crossings. If you haven't played in a while drifting seems new if you've played others. HORRIBLE cheating AI problem. Again, love the star music.
MKDD: Eh, I HATED the shininess and blockiness of the characters. Makes them look like putty formed them. I hated their anime-style talking... or not even moving their lips at all. Their win cheers and losing movements annoyed me... who would keep cheering or hitting the back of the cart in despair for the whole track? Drifting system was annoying as all get out compared to MKDS. Sorta fun tracks. Star music is revised a lot and I love it. I'm a guy who like to hear the subtle parts and bass, so hearing steel pans (I believe) in the background was cool, and hearing Pianta Village SFX was cool.
MKSC: Never really played. GBA = not for me.
MKDS: In my opinion, the most well thought out one and revised. Drifting system razor sharp. Endless cart choices. Bringing all the older elements and mating them with new. Touch screen helpful and tells you what items others are getting. Cheating AI problem fixed. Players affected even if off screen, and they must hit a block to get an item, not just sprout them. AI holding bananas, fakes, and shells make it seem more realistic. Love all the options and attractive/very fun tracks. I like how the item roulette SFX change with certain tracks, such as Waluigi's Pinball it sounds like a casino game rather than the traditional um... like... xylophone? What instrument is that... and what are the notes to the item roulette SFX? The constant whistling from Double Dash is toned down in this one... and sounds a lot better and thought out with tracks such as "Mushroom Pass" or whatever that is. This is another big favorite with star music. Good bass line with a high and light melody. Awesome game.
Mario Kart Wii: ........just make it look as good as Smash Bros. Brawl or even Galaxy... and make the scenery WAY more realistic compared to stupid cel-shaded-esque junk and crazy light colors that look kiddier than Allegra's Window and less entertaining than watching a highlighter drying out.

I felt the same way when I began playing. I'd always comment on how blocky the characters were....it always bothered me that Mario Party 4-7 had better graphics. That didn't stop me from having a good time, though. :)
-
Oh yeah... another thing they fixed with MKDS. They fixed the winning cheer thingies and stuff. Instead of mindlessly cheering and letting the kart steer itself, they pay attention to curves coming up and stop freakin' out.
-
Double Dash is my favorite. In my opinion, it has more unique courses, such as Wario Colosseum.

I'd like to list my favorite Mario Kart games, from most extremely best to least extremely best.
At the top, i'd like to wait for the next Mario Kart incarnation, Mario Kart for Wii (no specific subtitle for that one... for now, at least). I'm sure it'll top the other Mario Kart games. I mean, each one keeps topping the previous Mario Kart games, so i'm sure we'll see some neat stuff in this one. I can't wait for it. So, basically, Mario Kart Wii is my highest favorite of them all.
Second best, i would go with Mario Kart DS. With all of the extra karts and all of the cups' tracks, this is one of the coolest Mario Kart game that I've played since i got interested in this franchise. Although it was the second portable Mario Kart game overall, it was a whole lot better than Super Circuit. This Mario Kart game is my second favorite.
In third, it's basically Mario Kart: Double Dash!! This Mario Kart is a rare treat, as two characters hops on a same kart. Something that no other Mario Kart had done and hasn't been done again since. And with more characters than you can shake a Koopa shell at, this is definitely one of the most sweetest Mario Kart game that i've played among them all. Of course, it would get better with future installments, but it's my third best Mario Kart game.
Now, as we continue to go down to the least favorite, we now go to the least best, dropping down to the totally uncool Mario Kart game. And i'm not talking about Super Mario Kart, the one that started it all. That one was quite cool. But over time, the first game pales in comparison to the greater Mario Kart games in later years. At least, however, this one's in fourth place, because we cannot forget where the whole Mario Kart saga had begun, right?
Fifth place is Mario Kart 64. Now, we go 3-D for this one and they were a bit better than the first game. However, today's Mario Kart games were a lot better than this Mario Kart game. So, this one lands in second last place.
Last place of the list of Mario Kart favorites of mine is Mario Kart: Super Circuit. This one was totally tougher and a bit unpleasant, despite the fact that it was a good Mario Kart game. But the extra modes and difficulty made it a bit impossible for me to complete. I don't mind playing the unlockables race tracks from the first game, but i couldn't complete it on 150cc mode. Of all Mario Kart games, this is the first and only Mario Kart game to which i was unable to finish all race tracks. I did beat this game, don't get me wrong. But the rest of the 150cc tracks was like next impossible for to beat.

SMK: Very good start to a powerful series, but it's just different and alot harder. It had the best music, though.
MK64: The series gets a major makeover. But like how SMK was hard, this one was easy. And I'm still trying to figure out why the characters weren't in 3D
MKSS: No...just, no....
MKDD: Getting better, but I just hated the whole "partners" concept
MKDS: My favorite of the 5. The first game that was like one of the originals that was in 3D graphics, and no partner concept. I also love the stages, the hidden features, and you could play ONLINE and on the go!

MK64: no flying Blue Shells to worry about, computers can't use shells, fabulous courses and the fact that it had none of this 'two characters to a kart business'.
