One of my favourite Double Dash moments was when my family was playing just after we got it in a Versus match, and my eldest sister, in fourth, had just gotten a Blue Shell. As she went to throw it, however, circumstances pushed her into first place, so she wound up accidentally throwing a Blue Shell at herself. But because of how clumped together we were, all of us were hit, so it didn't make much difference in the end.

[@brandonwilliams6119]

My absolute favorite Mario Kart that feels like it was made with a lot of love, every character has their own unique special items and the music is amazing! I wish they would re-explore the dual racing mechanic and make another.

[@Light-Rock97]

Driving with two people is so cool, especially when it's two characters who you don't see together often. One can hope they bring this back some day...

It's still wild that there's been so many potential crossovers that happen with Mario and Sonic that just...don't happen. I like the Olympic games and Smash and all but these two franchises should pull a 'Mario+Rabbids'

Double Dash will always hold a special place in my heart. It just felt so big and exciting and new at the time, since it introduced *so* many new things to the series, with the expanded roster, multiple karts, etc. And, visually, it's still my favorite, with its vibrant visuals and bouncy kart animations. Such a classic.

The first game I ever owned and played it every day as a child. I didn’t speak English at the time and wasn’t aware of the unlocks or options.

It included a timed demo of windwaker and full versions of ocarina of time and majora’s mask

I really wish Nintendo would make Mario Kart into more of a Super Smash Bros game, bringing in characters like Pokémon, Star Fox, etc, and also bring back the features where each character had their own special item

[@Thatsmapizza]

Great episode! I had no idea that reverse races were an idea Nintendo had all the way back in the development days of double dash. I'm glad we're actually able to see that idea come to fruition in Mario Kart Tour. It gives a lot of the tracks a different feel to them.

[@VGMStudios33]

Almost every time they're anywhere above 4th, the clip is them falling out of it. lmao It's distractingly bad. I hope they don't take the video down and fix it, I love it as is.

[@GreatFox42]

I wonder if those talks that put Sonic on the table eventually led to F-Zero GX. Obviously for Sonic to be on the table for a Nintendo racing game, they'd have to be talking to Sega. Sega's Amusement Vision division were the primary developers of F-Zero GX, with oversight from Nintendo. The timelines kind of add up too, as GX was released the same year as MKDD.

[@solesurvivor5]

This for me will always be the jewel of the series, me and a friend played the world tour night after night for almost 3 years straight. We only stopped cause we were afraid to burn out the disc, I still keep it in the shelf as a special ocasion game. No other Mario Kart was this addicting. SILVER PIPE KART FOR LIFE!

[@-Ryu]

Watching you Guys Drive Makes Me Feel Like Getting back into Fighting games.

[@Lugbzurg]

I remember really hoping that Mario would be featured in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, along with Sonic in Mario Kart Wii, due to be released in the same month.

[@TBustah]

I should have figured that sidecars were an inspiration for “Double Dash”. Just look at the way the second character hangs on and leans into corners: it’s very similar to sidehack racing.

[@colesimons2000]

It’d be awesome if Nintendo made a port of this for Switch. 🤩

[@KingNefiiria]

The gameplay footage reminds me of how hard Double Dash was to control compared to all the other Mario Karts. Coming from 64 to Double Dash, and probably even from 8 Deluxe to DD, it's such a different control style than usual. Having two characters in one kart also throws off the dimensions of the kart, it's not easy to see in front of you when you have a character literally blocking the view of the front of the kart, so it's easy to crash into stuff.

[@nightlite1999]

I remember playing this online using the LAN adapter and a piece of software called Warp Pipe. Worked just fine so I am calling BS that Nintendo couldn't implement it.

[@RavenWitchShade]

Funnily enough, in the UK/Europe we didn't get the disc with demos, we got the Zelda collector's edition disc with the NES and N64 games on them.

[@KirbyIsANerd]

A little disappointed that Donkey Kong Jr being planned before being replaced by Diddy Kong wasn't mentioned (there's images of his model from prototypes too, if I recall!) but still a good video!

DK JR. Was also supposed to appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl too. He recently returned to Mario Kart in Tour.

[@armorbearer9702]

I would have loved the double jump mechanic. Maybe you could dodge a shell or banana. Heavy carts could jump over some terrain so that they do not lose a ton of speed.
