My 8 year old grandson loved this so much that I had to buy a DS nintendo for my 6 year old granddaughter so they could play it together as they connect on their DS nintendo systems. It's expensive, but worth the money.

Surprisingly zoomy for a handheld game

I don't have much Nintendo experience so I am not familiar with this game from it's other console incarnations. What I can tell you is that it is fairly easy to learn the basics and pretty engrossing once you get to the higher difficulty levels. I am not very good at the trick to generate quick bursts of speed while drifting so it's quite challenging. The broad assortment of characters and unlockable vehicles is nice, and there are many different kinds of track.

The best of the best

I've rented dozens of DS games and have purchased about 8 of them, and Mario Kart DS is, in my opinion, the best game current available for the system.

The single player is robust, with many, MANY different types of play. Missions, Time Trials, racing against ghosts, Grand Prix, mirred tracks, ect..

There is a spectacular amount of content in the game. The game is also very well polished. No bugs, no crashing. The menu's are very simple.

It's amazing how much greatness they can squeeze into that little cart that's the size of a postage stamp.

I spend a lot of time playing wireless against friends, and is definately one of the best aspects of the game. You can win by pure driving skill, just like all the other racing games, but what sets mario kart above the rest is that the items opens up a strategic element to the game that very few other racers have. You can win by using your items intelligently, or you can win by perfecting the art of cornering and power boosting. This gives the game a lot of diversity.

As you progress through the game, winning races, new characters and carts and classes unlock. This keeps you motivated through the single player campaign. Once you do unlock everything, you will be very pleased with just how much content the game has.

The physics and handling of the karts are just right. It is arcade style racing, but yet diverse and technical enough to reward skilled drivers. It's easy to learn, but difficult to master, and thats one of the greatest things about it.

The graphics are very smooth, very colorful. The sound effects are great and give it a lot of personality and charm. The wifi play gives the game longevity. I've played a couple hundred wifi matches so far, and im ready to play hundreds more.

Don't even both renting the game, just buy it, it will keep you busy for a looong time.

Absolutely fun!

This is a great game and i consider it a must have for the Nintendo DS/DS Lite. Some of the courses are really great like the inside of a giant clock, or two ships at sea (you actually get blasted from one ship to another!) + much more.

For, me the wireless implementation is the best part. You can easily sign into your WiFi connetion to race against others around the world, very fun and quite addicting!

The game can be quite challenging at times and there are many different combinations of character and carts to choose from, so the longevity/playability is very good. Note that if you finish first in all the cups, you unlock certain other characters like Daisy, Dry Bones, and the robot. These additional characeters are also then available for you to use in the WiFi racing too.

Just buy this game! It has great fast action and is one of the best and most fun games available.

Better than expected

I have to be honest, i only bought this game because i wanted to try my ds online. When i first turned the game on that was the first thing i did. It was a lot of fun. Then i went to the regular gameplay, it was fun also. You cant do all the stuff online, but you can earn new cars to drive with. The only thing i have to say, is when racing online, try to race more than one person, because once they start losing they will drop out of the game causing you to lose. Even after going through ll the trouble of almost winning for the first time. Would definitely reccomend for the online play, and playing against your friends.

best mario Kart game ever!!!

Sure, any company could put some wannabe mastcot in a kart and say this is a bangin' game. But Mario Kart is the undisputed champ of the genre, cause of the super smooth controls, inovative tracks, and 'zangy' powerups that'll addict even the most hardcore gamers.

Sure, it's a little bit of a repeat of the other Mario kart games that have Mario's buddies tossing shells, and using mushrooms on rainbow colored coures, but you'll be challenged be the compitition just like you were in Grand Turismo.

You get put into sixteen totally fresh tracks and replay some of the great ones like Rainbow Road, and Bowser's Castle. Don't worry, we still have the always fabulous battle-modes, and of course, it's Wi-Fi if you want to be challenged.

Online matches only have one flaw, you have to accept you aren't the best Mario Kart player in the whole world. And if you are the best player in the world, you can't brag about it to your online buddies, there's no voice chat!

Another flaw is a personal one of mine, there aren't any analog sticks, and no power slidin' which I love so much from Double Dash. But you won't find a better hand-held racing game that can claim that they're tops over Mario Kart DS!
