Best Mario Kart Game

I have played MkWii, for many hours. Also, what's wrong with emulation?

It's not stealing. I'm not taking anything away from Nintendo. Considering that they're not selling the game anymore, emulation is done out of necessity. Also, I have a USB sensor bar and Nintendo Wiimote paired to my pc via bluetooth to play Wii games. I feel like you're just mad I have a differing opinion from you.

What kind of errors? I've never personally experienced any. Considering I use Dolphin, probably the most accurate and advanced emulator, it's pretty accurate.

PS if you want me to show you how to soft mod your consoles or emulate games on your computer, let me know because I'd be happy to show you

I thought you said emulation is stealing though?

1. Emulation is still not illegal
2. Hacking your Wii is mostly used for two things, piracy of Wii and Gamecube games to paly natively on your console or used to play on emulators. The former being ACTUALLY illegal.

Ok smart guy, what do you use yours for? Most people just take advantage of the virtual library or pirate games, but clearly your situation is very unique.

Mario Kart Ds cause it was my first game on the ds

Okay so I'm glad that you didn't say MK64 because 1996 vibes... But that's basically the same thing with DS. I don't really understand how having a game in a certain moment can change heavily your opinion on that game. Me, I love MKWii, and it was my first MK Game or even my first Mario game. But I love MKWii because it's just incredible. So... That's kinda hard to explain. I just dislike this way to like a game, it sounds too much subjective. Like, the game could be a piece of  crap, but that's your childhood game so you're basically in love with it. Lmao.

Sometimes if a moment really resonates with you, it can influence your opinion of a game for a while. It's been coming up on 8 years since Nintendo WFC shutdown and I still remember playing online for like 2 hours every night during the summer of 2013, and absolutely loving it. It's a memory that I don't think will ever leave me, and while it doesn't affect my opinion of MKW that much, it does at least rise it to slightly above where it should be. I would also have a moment (or a series of) like that for MK64 and MKDS, both happening 5ish years down the line.
It'll be different for others though.


People like things for different reasons. Be it a critical analysis, growing up with it, having a strong memory associated with it, we all like what we like for different reasons, and we probably like different things about what we like, since we all see different parts of a game as mattering more or less than others.
Me personally I've always been in the camp of MKDS being the best. I wouldn't call it the most technical kart but it's definitely the most input heavy, and the controls align very well with most of the tracks. It's that kind of transition from the "classic karts" (MKDD backwards) to the "nu karts" (MKW forward), bringing the best of both worlds together in a package that just...controls amazingly. It's not a flawless game but it's a damn good one and I doubt Nintendo will ever top it with regards to new MKs. Some people will like MKDS for different reasons (mission mode, the intro of online play, "proper" retro tracks, emblems, etc), some people will dislike MKDS for the reasons I like it, and others still will see apply reasoning of the "best of both worlds" to another kart. Such is how we appreciate forms of art (something derived from subjective opinion).

You can always go back to online mariokart using wiimmfi. There's a lot of discord servers for meeting people to play with, I highly recommend

multiple people have said mkwii is a childhood game and i can relate.

mk7 for sure

As it was my first Mario Kart game, I might be a bit bias but I say Mario Kart 7

Mario Kart Wii. It was the first game I ever played plus it has the best Bowser's Castle and Rainbow Road. And It has Funky Kong

fair point
