This game is great. Some of the best graphics I've seen on the DS. I was surprised to see they integrated online gameplay. I love that at any moment, I can just use my WIFI to connect to a race going on pretty much anywhere in the world. I've only used the search option. The "karts" handle pretty well - You don't usually hit a wall on a turn (I've used Yoshi and Toad Stool, so I could be wrong), and each character seems to behave a little differently (bowser was slower when I used him, but would seem to be good for battle mode). All in all a great game, but personally, I would not play it for long bursts of time. It's like - win a cup or two and then put it away for the night - but then again, racing games are not always what I crave. If you're a racing type person, I'm sure you'll love it.
"LOVE IT"

I asked my grandchildren what they thought of the Mario Bros. DS games and they responded, "LOVE IT".

This is a great game. The only thing that could make it better is a sequel.
WOW! Blew me away!

I normally don't get into Mario games, haven't played many since Super Mario Brothers 2 came out for the original Nintendo. Always thought of them as 'kiddy games'. My brother in law brought this over on Christmas and we all played via WiFi... I was hooked, this game is one of the most FUN games I have played on the Nintendo DS. I was compelled to buy a copy so we could have races at home any time. Lots of fun, grat for kid/adult bonding too.
Just like the origional!

Greatest game ever made. Exceptionally good on the DS. I especially like the old school courses the most.
ADDICTING!

I have the same problem with this as with almost every game I've played so far for the DS (Kirby Canvas Curse, New Super Mario Bros). They are supposed to be fantastic, but when I get them, they are fun, sure, but they are way too short and too easy to beat. Now, I am no longer a child, but I didn't think these games were all geared for children only. There should be an age level warning, and basically Super Mario kart would be enjoyable for 17 and under. There are only 32 tracks, all fun and engaging as far as they go,but none are very challenging. It may sound like a lot but very soon after you crack open the package, you will be done and that is no bang for your 40 bucks. I hope Mega Man zx and Phantom Hourglass are better, or I am selling my DS right away.
One of two favorite DS games

This game is part of the Mario series of games for the DS. My kids prefer anything "Mario" over all of the other games available. They are ages 6 and 9.
Awesome game

I've had this game for about a week now, and I love it. I used to play MarioKart64, and was always my favorite game. What I really like about this version of the game is that it includes a couple of the old tracks from N64, as well as a few others. The new tracks are fun, and the game now has these missions you can do, as well as battle, vs, grand prix, and time trial. I give this game a thumbs up.
PS i have yet to try multiplayer racing
