Super Mario Kart is a racing game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and the first game of the Mario Kart series, as well as the game that sets precedents to the fictional kart racing genre. Part of this game is heavily based on Super Mario World in terms of graphics and overall theme. Using Mode 7 scaling, the first true kart game on the SNES has you collecting coins to boost your speed while using shells and bananas to stop others on the track.

Super Mario Kart is the kart racer that started it all, and it still holds up remarkably well! Sure, the graphics are dated, but the tight controls, wacky items, and classic tracks are as fun as ever. Battle Mode with friends is chaotic joy, and the harder cups offer that old-school challenge. It's a timeless classic and a must-play for any retro gaming fan or Mario Kart enthusiast.
Dogshit j'étais trop guez dessus en plus
Not that fun. Even for it's time I don't think it's well designed at all for a 2D racer.
it's hard to like this when you know how much better this series has gotten...flat track design is a big no for me
I played this so much as a kid. For being the first mario kart it's actually pretty decent, aside from the drifting of course. I'm shocked they never brought back the "super" moniker to the title.
Everyone's gotta start from somewhere, I guess.
