I have mixed opinions on virtually every aspect of this game

Respectable as a game that captured a wide audience and ensured the Wii's success but it's still just a tech demo with barely any content

This is a fetish game and no I will not elaborate

Edit: Based on the other reviews, it seems like I'm far from the only person who had this thought. Anyway Bowser's Inside Story is peak

I played this when I was little and I could not beat the Piranha Plant boss

This is a pretty nice revival of the classics, I sure hope Nintendo capitalizes on this by introducing new ideas and innovations in the sequels!
Sigh.

I feel like the Mario Kart series can be split between two eras: Before Mario Kart DS and after Mario Kart DS. This really was the SMB3 of Mario Kart.

I feel like they butchered the pacing here. Still a great game because the first one's great, but it's a big disappointment.

Environmental design and atmosphere peaked here

MARIO!!!! HOW DARE YOU DISTURB MY FAMILY VACATION???

Compared to Kirby's Adventure, this has a worse artstyle, but better controls. It's basically a tie

This is better than Super Mario Kart in every aspect. Honestly, it's probably the first good Mario Kart game. I don't understand the hate.

Ok this rating may seem ridiculous, but I cannot stress enough just HOW MUCH FUN this game is on the Switch. The tilt controls work perfectly, and the level design takes full advantage of the game's main concept. It never gets stale, as so many fresh ideas are thrown in throughout to mix things up. It's so much more than just a gimmick. I hope this game's average rating improves in the future. I highly recommend this overlooked game. If you like the ball-rolling levels from Mario Galaxy, you'll like this game just the same.

Hey uh Nintendo, cute writing, but you kinda forgot about intuitive and engaging game design
