Mario Kart: Double Dash!! [:] Double Fun, Double Problems

After being asked over and over again, I'm finally doing it. My review of Mario Kart: Double Dash. For context, 2 months ago, I bought a Gamecube and bought MK: DD along with it. I posted about it on this website, promising a review about the game. Then I took an abrupt break from MKPC. But now I'm back, so it's time to put this behind me once and for all.

For starters, this is the only Mario Kart game with two characters. Not only does this introduce strategy, but also just the weirdest combos you can think of. There's also special items too, like Chain Chomp (an item that does the driving and bowling over opponents for you), hearts (an item that protects you from other items AND you can use them yourself), and giant banana (an item that, once hit, launches three regular bananas).

For new characters, we have Petey Piranha and King Boo. Which, of course, Petey is here because this is the Gamecube. He was on almost every other Mario game on the console besides Sunshine.

The tracks. Hoo boy, the tracks. We got some great ones here. Including, (deep breath)...
DK Mountain
Mushroom City
Daisy Cruiser
Yoshi Circuit
W A L U I G I S T A D I U M

But, then there's Peach Beach, which is just the most boring track ever.

Also, there's the All Cup Tour, which I'm really suprised hasn't returned yet.

Then, there's the flaws. Rubber-banding is a little bit of an issue here. And 150cc.. is actually, in my opinion, a little bit too difficult. Not because of the speed, but because of the CPU's. Can't tell you how many times I got robbed of gold because of the CPU's.

So yeah, that's my review of Mario Kart: Double Dash. So, where does it rank on my listing of the Mario Kart games?

8. Super Mario Kart
7. Mario Kart: Super Circuit
6. Mario Kart Wii
5. Mario Kart 64
4. Mario Kart Double Dash
3. Mario Kart DS
2. Mario Kart 7
1. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

So, what do you think of this Gamecube classic? Let me know. Also, tell me what you think of this video game review, and I'll think about doing more of them in the future.

I love MKDD, for me the most boring track is Mario Circuit, and the best track is DK Mountain, the idea of playing with two players is incredible since you can combine characters to obtain different special items. Although the way of drifting for me is something meh.
Regarding the objects, I love all the items that it have and my favourite are:
-Yoshi Egg
-Chain Chomp
-Star
-Bomb Omb

About the tracks, it has varied and very good ideas, at first I thought that Baby Park was going to be the most boring track, but being short and having 7 laps makes it crazy fun.
I think that All Coup Tour should return, it 's incredible play all the tracks in a single cup

To me MKDD is my 4th Favourite too bc:
1- Mario Kart Wii
2- Mario Kart 7
3- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
4- Mario Kart Double Dash
5- Mario Kart Ds
6- Mario Kart 8
7- Mario Kart Super Circuit
8- Mario Kart 64
9- Super Mario Kart

To keep my opinions short, Baby Park sucks, Wario Coliseum is amazing, Waluigi Stadium is even better. Double Dash is honestly the most skill-heavy Mario Kart, and I like that. It makes it stand out, and in a good way. The different drifting takes more skill to master, and, I know everyone hates it, but I honestly love the way the drifting works. Instead of an honestly stupidly slow jump before you drift, you just go into the drift immediately. Plain and simple. No time wasted. And if you want to complain about the mini-turbos? It's been like that since Super Mario Kart and didn't change till Wii. Deal with it. Though I do agree that the CPUs are a little too hard, especially in 150cc. 50cc is fine, 100cc requires more skill, but is still doable, but 150cc pretty much requires you to get good luck on items to win. That's the whole reason I hate Baby Park, why would I want to do that on EVERY OTHER TRACK? Also, double characters=triple the fun, because now I can play as Luigi and also play as a new character that I like AT THE SAME TIME!

My rankings on the games are:
8. 64
7. Super
6. Super Circuit
5. 7
4. 8
3. Wii
2. Double Dash
1. DS

If the controls worked with the tracks given, then it would be a half decent kart, albeit the weakest pre-MKW. Unfortunately they don't, and the only track I can really stand is Wario Colosseum.
Verdict: Every track is the ice track.

Rankings:
9: MK8D
8: MKDD
7: MK8U
6: MKW
5: MK7
4: SMK
3: MK64
2: MKDS
1: MKSC

Why did you rate Wii and Double Dash so low?

I like:
- Double Drivers
- Specials
- Tracks
I don't like:
-Turning
-Some Tracks
-Time Trials
