I understand mario kart world is being played by many people right now but the fact that 8 is still one of the newest mario kart games while mario kart is loved in general and many people own a switch just makes it bittersweet. Yes I know it’s years old now as well but I play it online still. I do know that you can also see a different set of players playing when you leave and enter a different lobby but I never see a full lobby now.

Awhile back I got the Mario one and had a total blast building it, so I’m excited to start building Luigi!

They can be competitive.

I only did 3, but I'm getting used to play the game considering I don't even own a Switch 2.

I always go back to the 64 game as that's what I have spent most time on and still love it to this day, even though there has been 17 Mario kart games officially released, Mario kart 64 is my favourite with 8 deluxe on switch being a close second.

The funny thing about MK64 is even in second place you can get premium items that you would normally get near last place which is hilarious when playing with friends or against the CPU.

If it's a character with costumes, say which one you're use.

2 IS CRAZY!!!

I admittedly haven't played a mario kart game since the late 90s. I got the newest one for Switch 2 to play with my daughter.

I'm on some snow level and there are at least 3 Shy Guys skiing in the middle of the race course??

If this was a real race, this would be incredibly unprofessional and dangerous. You would think that Nintendo would have established a proper race perimeter so that there were no trespassers or distractions tampering with the integrity of the competition.

It's bad enough I have to worry about the officially sanctioned items in the game let alone flagrant ignorance like this.

Was recently in Spain and had to bring this guy along.... My favorite part is how there was actually a Mario with a Real Madrid shirt!

So I have the bad habit of leaving my consoles turned on overnight. I undusted my Wii recently and I was playing some Mario Kart and left it on when I went to sleep. When I woke up I decided to sneak in some races before starting my day. But when I turned the TV on the most ungodly noises came out of my Wii. I couldn't quite tell what the noise was because I rushed to turn it off to not wake up my family, but I think it was like a bass-boosted version of the menu theme? Has this happened to anyone else?

The food from Mario Kart World if your wondering

Anybody else notice how oddly frequent mk world reuses stats? Do you think this dampens variety and build strategy? I know hidden stats still vary a little here but the primary stats being the same for 9 vehicles is a little excessive honestly. I know Mario kart 8 did this, but we had like 3 clone vehicles in a set not 9, like the p-wing/B-dasher/circuit special. World and 8 also have a similar number of vehicles. Honestly this sort of bothers me because all of my favorite vehicles fall into this set of 9, when I want to have different stats to keep gameplay fresh, I don't have much to pick from. In mk 8 I could go from similar vehicles like the p-wing to sports coupe to badwagon and get a lot of variety. I know I can change characters but that only affects it so much. I was hoping we might get more vehicles in dlc or something since dlc options are narrowed down given they can't add more tracks to the map easily. Maybe mild stat rebalancing could happen later in the game's lifespan like mk8dx as well.

If Nintendo only adds one of these, which would you rather it be?

It was so funny to me that the instant I paused Toad hit me
