This has been a blind spot in my Mario Kart experiences for a long time (alongside MKDS & MK7), so I’m glad I finally got around to trying it. That said, I can’t say I had much fun. I’m sure it was a big deal back in the day to have Mario Kart in your pocket, but the control just isn’t there, you get almost no traction when you attempt to drift & there were times where boosts didn’t even help me cross certain gaps correctly. The admittedly halfway-decent GBA pixel art can only carry it so far.
