Mario Kart DS is fun, but Mario Kart Wii is better. It costs $35.00 plus tax. The game is worth it because of Wi-Fi. You need an app to do world wide communication. Mario Kart has a giant history, so support it by buying the game.

There isn’t a large variety of characters, but don’t sweat it, There’s a large variety of courses. We’ll talk about that later. The characters include Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Donkey Kong(DK), Wario, and Bowser. I bet you were hoping for more. If you want more, play Mario Kart Wii. That is if you have one

The Karts are pretty cool, but there’s only one problem. There’s only two karts for each character. Your probably thinking “hey that’s a ripoff!” Your right, it is a ripoff, but we’re both wrong. Sure the cars are slow, but they’re pretty high tech.

Like I said before, there is a large variety of courses. From the mushroom cup to the lightning cup. From tick tock clock to Waluigi pinball. Want to here all of the cups? I thought so. They are: Mushroom cup, flower cup, star cup, special cup, shell cup, banana cup, leaf cup, and lightning cup. Now that’s a lot of cups.
