And the 3DS is killing over there too. Leave it to everyone's favorite plumber to move units.
Mario Kart DS still plays a fine game of handheld Mario Kart more than 20 years after its initial release.
I really liked the Mission Mode. They had you doing crazy stuff like driving backwards, or collecting all the collectibles as quick as you can between a litter of enemies.
They should add it to Mario Kart 9 for sure, along w online leaderboards for the mission stuff. That's how they could expand on the already excellent Mario Kart 8, bc track quality it's hard to imagine them getting much better beyond slightly tighter graphics and 4k on the Switch 2. Maybe more Diddy Kong Racing-esque adventure layout w more emphasis on boats and planes.
It's hard to say that Mario Kart DS is the best "handheld Mario Kart" though, bc Mario Kart 8 is handheld. It's definitely got some uniqueness that I appreciated. The 2 merged together would be amazing.
Mario Kart Double Dash, MKDS and Super Mario Kart are the only three that are actually fun to play. Sure MK8 is pretty but its just that. It lacks the soul of double dash. the DS one controls really really well and the orignial with the feather power up is cool.
Nintendo's beloved racing series has been around for more than three decades, but which are the best Mario Kart games?
While not the greatest handheld from day one, the best Nintendo DS games still offer some of the most fun you will find on any console.
The fact that Tetris DS does not include an unlimited play mode make it one of the worse Tetris versions for me. The online play was OK back when it still worked.
3DS has really been dominating Japan for the past couple of months.
IMpossible, 3DS is dying and the PSVita will obliterate the earth with its power in 2012. I think that's what I'm supposed to say on this site.
Pretty good sales for the doomed rolling down the hill turd console that is the 3DS /sarcasm

Makes sense.
Every game I get into is 70% japanese players. Its actually probably the best online portable game ive played. Kudos to nintendo to getting it all working.
Its embarrassing for some devs that i spend 5 seconds to be matched up into a game of this and 40+ in other "online FPS's" released recently on home consoles.
