Mario Kart DS is quite possibly the best game in the series. With the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, the fun never stops!
MKDS has been long awaited since it was announced before the DS was even released. People were abuzzz over the screenshots, that weren't even final. Many of the gamers decided that this would be the game that they were most excited about. This is how you can determine that MKDS was the most popular game, and that was even before its release. After its release, people are still gauking over it.
The gameplay is simply phenominal. The controls are suprisingly good, and the graphics are very impressive. New items have been added, as well as courses. The favorite courses from the SNES, N64, GBA, and even GCN have been integrated into this masterpiece of a racer.
Unlockables will constantly have you playing the Grand Prix mode, in search of those final unlockables that can be used throughout the game. (even WiFi!) There are a few unlockable characters, and karts as well. Each character has their own stats and abilities, as does each kart.
Mario Kart DS is a must-have for any Nintendo DS owner. It provides the satisfaction in a DS racer that I was hoping it would. The Wi-Fi keeps track of your wins and losses and people who disconnect in the middle of a race suffer automatic losses.
Mario Kart DS has shown awe to many MKDS veterans, who get a race down memory lane with this awesome DS racer. Every DS owner needs to at least experience the gameplay of Mario Kart DS.
