    I found Mario Kart Super Curcuit on GBA the most enjoyable so far.

    It relied more on basic racing and less on weapons. When getting out of a curve you only got a turbo boost if you did it in the right angle, no waggling left and right.

     

    Super curcuit was a great game, it comes close to the snes one for me. My only problem is when i went back to playing it a while ago, i couldn't get used to the frame rate :cry: i was in heaven when it first came out thou :awesome:

    i would say the original mariokart was the best gameplay wise (obviously not best multiplayer thou), 64 started the trend of making mushrooms pants and the annoying waggle sliding... plus it wasn't very fast :(

     

    IMO that is : peace:

    MarioKart DS had it's charms but it was too slow just like most previous mariokarts, I agree that the items need to be looked at with regard to distance ahead and i don't think there is any need to have loads of rubbish karts this time. Oh and i really wish they stopped the whole waggle left and right to get a mini boost, i have always hated that.

     

    I suppose it could be like the arcade version, i only played that once and i can't remember it being that good but then it was my first try at MK with a steering wheel. I think the arcade version brought back coins thou didn't it?? :)

    ..yeh.. I was thinking Wiimote/Nunchuk with steering on the analogue stick and throwing bananas/shells etc with the Wii Remote..

     

    I'd be fairly happy with excite truck controls if it were a super fast game and not like double dash which was slow as balls imo, but nintendo seem to like mariokart to appeal to young gamers so it will probably be slow :nono:

     

    Fast, Wiimote aiming, mushroom like in snes MK, no snaking = Great Mariokart = happy Smowza

    Excite Truck-ish controls with the Mario Kart style and online, sign me up.

     

    Am i the only person to not like the whole excite truck controls thing?

    i'd like traditional controls for steering with the ability to aim and actually throw shells/items with the Wiimote, but maybe thats stupid ::shrug:

    I reckon its way WAY too early for a new DS. Maybe a new model, but I mean come on, to bring out a new DS will be like a punch in the face to all those millions buying the DS lite. TBH I think it makes no sense to bring a new DS out.

     

    Maybe it is early m8 but i only meant announcement meaning a DS2 out in something like a year or so. I have to say thou, what 'big' Nintendo games are yet to come out for DS? i struggle to think of any if you don't count Phantom Hourglass.

    The gba is all but dead (it's done well bless it), if you look back at the DS it was an addition to the handheld market. People could still play gba games on it so it had firm foundations already. Now that gba is no longer 'big' the DS is going to be all alone in terms of Nintendo handhelds.

     

    I don't believe Nintendo will want this to happen especially with the PSP (+ possible PSP redesign coming soon) on the scene. IMO now or very soon would be a good time to transform the original DS into the foundations of a 'DS2' system just like the gba was to DS, it would continue the winning formula Nintendo used for the orignal DS. I for one would welcome a new DS :D

     

    I could be wrong, would a 'DS2' kill the original DS? or would it strengthen the DS brand? (PS1 did well after PS2 came out, didn't it?)

    I have no idea what to expect from Ninty now. First time in a long time that I havnt felt a lot of hype for this event..

     

    I'm kind of mixed about e3 this time around. The last e3 was great but that was due to the fact that the Wii wasn't out yet.

     

    When i think of nintendo showing new versions of games like Mariokart and Zelda i always get excited but when you look back each of those games have been big jumps in terms of gfx (mariokart is a prime example) but now when i think of what the next Mariokart will be like i just have this image of it looking like double dash. I want a graphically stunning mariokart please nintendo, just like mario galaxy is stunning but will it happen? probably not :mad:

     

    It would be nice if nintendo announced some new hardware like maybe DS2 :laughing:
