Super Mario Kart but good. A slight exaggeration, but seriously, if you ever see a Mario Kart tier list and this game is below SMK, slap that person, because Super Circuit has every single course from the original Mario Kart in addition to 20 brand new ones, all without the dated, slippery controls of the SNES game.

Super Circuit is a quality title in its own right and I really appreciate it having some of the more wackier and unique course themes in the series. I also like that it still has the N64 Mario aesthetic to its characters as it was one of the last titles in franchise to feature this look. Super Circuit was the reason I originally bought my GBA and I still hold it in high regard, even if a lot of the Mario Kart games that came later have far surpassed it.
