The Misunderstood Mario Kart

[@Timefishing1]

When you think of portable Mario Kart, you think DS. When you think of any Mario Kart game, you likely think of the first one you played, or 8. But I’ve never met anybody who instantly thinks this game when someone says Mario Kart, no matter what the topic is.

[@LunaticJ]

Your editing has gotten so good. Love the shirt transitions. Shoutouts to iMathII, an absolute champion of this game

[@Jbotw23]

It’s good to see a big KZbinr in comment sections of smaller KZbinrs like this guy!

[@Ibalistic_hedge]

Super circuit is criminally underrated.

[@Fruitman1997]

Super Circuit deserves a lot more respect than it gets. Modern Mario Kart has Super Circuit’s DNA, and we have a lot to thank for it. Retro tracks, portable, multiplayer, a real single track vs mode against CPU’s (not forced against friends, which was put in backwards in the next game lol), even simple things like saving and retrieving ghost data without the use of an external piece of hardware. Thank you for all you’ve done for this series, Super Circuit. We are indebted to you for all you have done.

[@exelmans8855]

The best game of the serie.

[@ongakuwotabeta]

Another thing introduced in Super Circuit that is a mainstay in future entries is 1P VS. mode (called quick run in SC) So helpful when you want to practice a particular track on a cup you currently can’t beat, or if that track is not the first in the cup and is simply your favorite!

[@rayda8647]

Nice video! Edit: So I made this comment for the sake of the algorithm, but after fully watching the video, I'm genuinely surprised by the fact that it's not as popular as popular Nintendo KZbinrs like Nathaniel bandy or scott the woz. Keep up the good work man! I'll be here watching every video you post!

[@DoMorrMusic]

Seriously it's like an alternate universe of Scott The Woz

Seriously tho, you might be one of the most underrated channels I've seen in a long time. The thumbnails, editing, humor, and charm are consistent throughout your uploads. I look forward to what you make next.

[@the_door_opener2622]

Super Circuit is underrated? Dude, your whole channel is underrated; I was shocked to see how low the view count was here, considering the quality of editing and the skits you had. I particularly liked the bookend you included where you took SC’s cartridge out of the lineup and then put it back again, very creative. Keep up the good work; I’m off to see what else you’ve made!

[@the_door_opener2622]

Also, I agree with you on your take with the game. The thing I mainly remember from SC is the beautiful pixel art, it just oozes personality

[@therealtijuanaman]

I love this mario kart. It's like a direct sequel to the original mario kart

[@exelmans8855]

Exact. The rest of the series is totally different.

[@aluigiFromKart]

9:18 LITERALLY THIS the acceleration improvements and generally not feeling like you lose time for messing around? automatically makes it one of the most fun to control! especially compared to SMK feeling like Jupiter gravity, DD like shopping carts, and 8 Deluxe harshly punishing your speed if you wants to just do a 2 frame drift for reposition i adore this game way more than most would expect, as I'd say it's my 3rd favorite mario kart subjectively speaking!

[@kaasiand]

As someone who grew up with MKSC and ended up mastering the game, this video resonated with me a ton It really feels like one of the most rewarding MKs to play, with more and more to discover the longer you play the game. It controls so nice and tightly, but once you master the controls it's like that's just the beginning, and a whole world opens up of hidden mechanics and secrets to discover, like - braking to avoid spinning out like in MK64 (except it looks nicer in MKSC) - outrunning red/blue shells by maintaining top speed - some shortcuts (wall gaps or jump pads) that are hard to spot during normal gameplay (like the wall gap after the first turn on Cheep-Cheep Island-once you notice that, the patch of shallow water near the centre of the track suddenly starts to make sense) - which will then lead to you figuring out more and more advanced shortcuts, like bouncing over walls on water (which is when you'll realise how many tracks with water feature double walls for this exact reason, making single walls on water start to look very deliberately placed as an advanced hidden shortcut) It feels designed as a game that's very fun to put time into solo, to get better at

[@dad7275]

I've had this game for years and never knew it contained the original tracks. 😮

[@MikeJr9284]

Super Circuit was the first Mario Kart game I played growing up. Heck, it was the first ever GBA game I played.

[@svenfruiti494]

same here... when the tracks played I felt so much nostalgia

[@Michirin9801]

I think there's a charm to these flat tracks that's lost in 3D, but maybe that's just nostalgia, I grew up with the SNES game, and this was such a huge upgrade from that when I played it later in my childhood

[@NottJoeyOfficial]

This is unironically one of my favorite in the series with some of my favorite tracks. One of my most played as well. I love everything about it and keep coming back to it time and time again. I'm not a huge fan of 64 or Double Dash, so this being sandwiched between them isn't a huge deal for me. I love it and always will! It's got so much charm in it, and it's so nice to play on the go with how portable the GBA is! Also love the editing style on your channel, this is my first time seeing a video of yours and its a huge inspiration to me as someone who wants to make quality content as well!

[@pinkiepeachypie]

i played this game a lot when I was a kid and I just recently was able to 100% it and get the hidden night sky title screen and the game is super fun but no one else seems to have the same feelings about the game that I do

[@exelmans8855]

The greatest game ever created.

[@LuigiLitoLL]

I'm glad Super Circuit is getting a second lookover by the community. Honestly it deserves its ratings on Metacritic even for its time. Also kudos to the editing, glad to find another channel with similar interests! :)

[@volcanolotus64]

I used to play this game endlessly as a kid, and I remember really loving it. It's hard to play now due to the fact that I'm not longer used to the controls, but if you take the time to learn them they're rewarding. This was my first Mario Kart game ever, so even if no one else talks about it, it'll always have a place in my heart. Fun editing style by the way.

[@Mattix88]

How does he only have 6800 subscribers? It is genuenly baffling to me how he has such a small community when he puts this much effort into editing and researching for these videos. I am honestly upset at how very few people seem to actually care enough to subscribe

[@QuadFactor21]

While this isn't my favorite Mario Kart, I do have a soft spot for it since I played quite a bit in my youth, so I've grown used to its quirks. I've always liked this game's track images with the characters reacting to stuff on the track. I thought they were funny and charming, and they gave the game character. It's a shame future games didn't have that. One unique feature of this game that a lot of people don't talk about is the second function of the red shell. Unlike a green shell, you can't throw it behind you. You instead place the shell on the track like a landmine, and when another player drives past it, it chases after them. You can do this with a spiny (blue) shell as well.

[@giangeegibb]

Can't believe I'm this early to a Chillyn' video! Great stuff as always! Always good to see Super Circuit getting some love! :)

[@breezey3195]

Super Circuit is just a better Super Mario Kart in every which way. If I wanted to play SMK I’d just go play SC.

[@powerrex1525]

I love your videos so much man!! You have a great screen presence and are a very talented writer. Keep up the great work!!

[@Danish_chad]

Mario kart is many genarations childhood (And i still love the way you make and edit your videos)

[@Death-Sickle]

This is so good omg ❤ 6:52

[@t00nedd00d]

I'm glad you mentioned how it gets overshadowed by other games, especially 64 and Double Dash, since they're both console titles Even Super Mario Kart gets more attention since it's the first one I think that's the reason why people won't give it a chance because they feel it's not worth it, but it has more merit than you would think, it just has a bigger learning curve

[@AmiiboTheMii38]

for a channel with this much quailty, no way you have only 68 views in an hour. love the content dude!

[@ICgay4]

I never played it back then but omg remember the commercials

[@Sonicfan640]

Interestingly, the Bowser's Castle you see in the background of Rainbow Road is the same as the Paper Mario one. So it makes sense that IS developed it.

[@nurifu_nightly]

FINALLY. Super Circuit is one of my favorite mario kart games and nobody ever understood me

[@harizonflamingice3167]

My first Mario Kart experience that I had since Easter of 2002 when I was little, so I have a huge soft spot for it. From a technical standpoint it's not the best, but as far as soundtrack and courses go it's hard to argue with, imo.

[@svenfruiti494]

Super circuit was actually my first Mario kart game and I always played it on road trips in the car

[@2DThom]

one thing you forgot to note is that this is the first mario kart not developed in house by nintendo but by a 2nd party, intelligent systems, which is known for the fire emblem and wario ware series

[@kdizretro]

If you were around in 2001. It was a big deal. Plus depending on your age Super Mario Kart and Super Circuit arguably control superbly.

[@Kirblae]

The super circuit tracks also have some of the best potential for remakes. I’m always excited to see how tracks are reimagined in 3D

[@FargusPhil]

This video is great! Your humor and personality really shines through and the editing is crisp, fantastic content 🤝

[@LuckyScouts]

Nah, this guy is going to be big someday. Keep up the good work!

[@Neo-Metal17]

I really love Super Circuit, one of the only games I'll call underrated

[@HDRookie]

MKDS was my first MK as a kid, and I remembered wanting to go out and buy the original 4 games afterwards to play all the tracks in the series back in 2006, since MKDS only brought a few from each game back. Super Circuit was the last one I had to get, and I remember the employee at the counter questioned me if I was stupid or something, telling me that there were much more popular Mario Karts. Had to clarify that yes, this one was up next on the list, and that I brought my DS so I could play it on the ride home, haha. I agree whole heartedly that it controls better than MK64, btw. I think it's much more fun to play than that game, and I know it's a hot take. But the controls feel sharper, the SMK style worked well in a game that was not nearly as unforgiving, and the tracks never overstayed their welcome like they constantly did back in MK64. It always baffles me that many have MK64 ranked above it as a foregone conclusion, with some even saying that SMK was better. I can't help but feel that people forgot what SMK was actually like.

[@_Majoras]

theres a fairly recent color hack that fixes the original palettes washed out appearance for lack of backlighting. makes it look more vibrant can't play super circuit without it now

[@disden7366]

And why exactly do you only have 6k subs? You deserve well over 100k

[@Nightmood8066]

I played this game so much when I was a kid. Never got far though I remember it being really hard.

[@gavinisdie]

Mario Kart Super Circuit is my favorite of the first 3 Mario Kart games

[@LordTchernobog]

At least Mario Kart: Super Circuit is the only one Mario Kart to date that has SINGLE RACE game mode. And it matters, like it's a BASIC feature, to play a SINGLE race, ONE track.

[@Mega911Gamer]

I think Mario kart DS had that too

[@ElectroBlastLuigi]

Brayden Hanning and Chillyn' uploading a video of Double Dash and Super Circuit one day apart. Both my favorite games in the series.

[@JacksonWitsell]

Super Circuit deserves credit for being a way better version of what Super Mario Kart tried to be if nothing else.

[@dktsunami2567]

@Chillyn' Awesome video man. There's even a MKSC server dedicated to everything MKSC, TTs and other goofy things. People from all around the world still play, from the US, to Japan, to even UK and Greece to name a few places.

[@Keletnemetfiu]

Just started playing it on Nintendo Switch Online for the first time and it's actually really fun. The most fun out of the 3 Mario Karts on NSO. (Now I'm hoping for GameCube games to come because Double Dash is the last one I haven't played)

[@IanRulzU]

Wow first time ive seen someone like Super Circuit. Gotta say, you expressed how i felt about the game pretty well and probably less biased than me. Glad i got this video recommended.

The best thing about MK:SC - There's no stupid elitists playing it.

I didn’t know the circuit theme plays when flicking the cart

Its on the gba so any faults gets an auto pass cause there very few race car games in the gba that were as good or successful in my eyes

[@a.m.theshinyjohtohunter4287]

Thank you so much! Honestly, I can't play newer Mario karts because they look too smooth, bloom lighting is annoying and the speed and insane twists and upside down are nausea indusing. Give me the first 4 Mario karts and I'm happy. The first 2 for nostalgia, Mario kart Super Circuit for travel and Double Dash for... More nostalgia...

[@thebigbean8783]

Very misunderstood. Fantastic game

[@lancelovecraft5913]

I spent 3 summers playing this game when it came out. Im pretty sure im the best at it lol. Love cheeseland and ribbon rode but i am very much disappointed by the aesthetic of the remakes in MK8. In super circuit cheese land felt otherworldly, like u were racing on the moon w its deep blue sky and stars, in mk8 it feels like a boring desert track. Also loved the artwork for the course preview. It makes the mario universe feel so alive

[@prolifik302]

My fav mariokart game! I love pixel art and I play single player thats why 😂
