mario kart on ds plays so smoothly, even the gamecube tracks are handled by the little machine without so much as a hiccup. wireless online play is excellent too, though it can take a while to connect sometimes but on the whole this is a minor gripe.
it's a frustrating game sometimes, but that's mario kart, i hate it when i take the lead and am about to win the race and someone picks up the blue shell and i'm overtaken by two or three cars right at the end, this seems to happen an awful lot to me but it's probably 'cos i'm not very good, i can't even seem to finish the 150cc class, i like the game so much though that i know i'll improve as i continue to play it and hopefully i'll be able to be more competitive online.
this is without a doubt the best version of mario kart yet made.
