I approached playing Mario Kart DS skeptically. How could Nintendo improve on the originals? Would Nintendo actually
get the controls right?
One game later, I found myself impressed with the sound and easy to understand menus. The game engine is flawless with
challenging AI and better placement of the bananas. The bananas seem rather trivial until you play multiplayer Mario Kart
on one of the older platforms. Key placement of a banana can change the outcome of a game by causing unexpected colisions
with other players.
Next game was multiplayer, the opponent was an avid fan of the earlier platform releases. We ended up with a tie after two
quick games against medium level AI. All the features us Mario Kart fans expect are there! Smooth gameplay and the use
of the second screen as an opponent tracker, take multiplayer to the next level!
Pros:
1) One game can power 7 other simulatneous multiplayers!
2) No lag while multiplayer gaming.
3) All the standard controls are logically placed, even firing shells backwards!
4) Sound.
5) Interactivity and statistics.
6) 30 Courses!
Cons:
1) WI-FI is not everywhere yet!

Alot of people of asked me about the low character choices but after 3 months of winning trophies, I unlocked a new character! (Her name's Daisy if you were wondering) So keep winning about a trophy or more a week for I guess about 3 months and you might unlock a character too!
Mario Kart!!!!!

Mario Kart DS is incredible. It is fast moving, and enjoyable to play. I also own a PSP and I bought King Kong for it. I beat king kong in 2 days (LITERALLY) and now its not fun. But the thing about Mario Kart DS, is it has total replay value! You can play it over and over again, and still have fun. I love it so much, and you will too!!!
Mario,oh Mario,why are you so awesome!

Mario Kart DS is truly the best DS game and also better than mario kart:Double Dash! for the gamecube. It is a fun game,it looks great for a handheld,and it is just so innovative and easy to get into. After playing this game for days, its kinda hard to get back into Double Dash, BUT WHO CARES! DS OWNERS< IF YOU DONT HAVE IT, YOU MUST PICK UP MARIO KART DS!!!!!

ok i like the game best graphics and everything but... i am not here to dicribe the whole game like the other peopl so read other peoples reavie for that this is all about the wi fi!
i was excited to get the game online play! but then it happend. if u want your compuers to get viruses like crazy and people hacking your network. this is the kind of thing to do just that.
u have to open things called ports to be able to paly online thos port are wat let people in so when u are opening them its like welcomming a guest through your door to come into your computer. so buy the game its great game paly but dont buy it just for the online party casue u will be disapointed unless u dont care about people hacking your computers and your systems and wat not
this is just a warning so buy the game its great but not for the wi fi.
EASY AND FUN
