super mario kart may be one of the definitive examples of a barebones project that allowed for so many ideas to flow in the future. it's an equally challenging as it is rewarding game play loop that is great for short bursts of fun. a light-hearted experience, it's delightful color palletes & range of locals offer just enough variety that one could expect from a super nintendo game. nothing that will blow you away or make you say "they don't make games like they used to", but good enough to jump in here and there.
