I devoted my life to MK:DS for like 5 years. Had a 3 star rank, snaked like crazy, had a record of like 2000 wins 10 losses on wifi, would've been better if less people quit out. Spent the last 10 years just playing battle against CPU's and honing my shell aim. Best game in existence.

Mario Kart DS is so painfully nostalgic it makes me shed a tear. Kids today or the younger Gen Zers will never get to experience the joys of LAN or splitscreen multiplayer mode. To me, memories of linking my DS with my friends to face off in Mario Kart were what stood out the most.

I was born in 2004, I can tell you that MKDS is far the best mariokart game, why ? 1. Snaking mechanics, this is the soul of this game, it take a lot more skills than other MK game. 2. I never played online but I had the luck to play LAN with 7 of my cousins/friends and today I try to get 8 MKDS with 8 DS to revive those lost times. And you can play with people who doesn't have the game, nowadays you have to get your own game and console to play with your friends and it kills the definition of games 3. Tracks are iconic, music too, what to want more ?

Despite tour's missions being quite simple compared to mkds, i find some of them pretty fun and unique like the glider challenge where you glide as far as you can, precision gliding, big reverse race vs. 100 and snap a photo. They usually are some of the most fun ones to do buteven then the other ones aren't that bad

The drifting is what sold it for me. Yes snaking did exist but there's this movement feeling with MK DS that I can't explain and just isn't replicated on any of the other Mario kart games.

Agreed 100%. I remember going to my local churches summer program during the summer as a kid because both of my parents worked, and all of us would play MKDS during the times we weren't going on field trips. I would purposely join without my cartridge to play as Shy Guy because he was my favorite character by far with Dry Bones being second. I was always the best out of us because I would put the most time in since it was my favorite game along with Pokémon diamond, whereas my friends would actually play a variety of games that I would lose to them at. Loved all the missions as well and remember hoping they would add King Bomb-omb as a character (still have hope for him in MK9 since he was added to tour)

If you have a mac, and set up a WEP network for your DS, be sure to still set the maximum connection count to 1, and turn it off when your DS isn't in use. WEP isn't very secure, but since you're not sending sensitive information over your DS it shouldn't matter. So long as you set it up properly, they won't be able to connect to the hotspot so long as your DS is connected, so there shouldn't be a risk of foreign entry.

Snaking isn't an "issue", this is the basics of all the magnificient community that the game has today, and all the competitive aspect and technics of the game. Snaking made the game difficult to master, and very interressant it its mechanics. If you master the technic, nothing can be comparable to play with 3 others players which snakes in WiFi mode. The game, and its technics, are masterpiece, and i'm sad to know that next MK don't have any very skilled issue compared to MKDS mechanics.

I can’t be the only one who remembers playing this on the school bus for field trips. Heck, I usually remember more from the games of MKDS than from the actual destinations of said field trips. One example: we had such an intense set of matches-from a dead heat between myself and a classmate, to a point where I was accidentally put on a team by myself (but still put up a good fight), to the communication issues that caused us to fail to finish some races (where some people were upset since they were winning)-we were even talking about it the next day during “quiet work time” and our teacher even had to come out and tell us to cut it out with the DS talk.

I really hope one day they bring back the DS drift system, even if it’s just an optional feature for single player and local multiplayer. And who knows, if it ever comes back maybe they can make CPU’s snake as well to really push expert players ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A lot of people associate this game with the wii/ds era bc that’s when it got popular, but actually, this game is more of a 6th gen game than a 7th gen one objectively, despite releasing on a 7th gen system. This game uses a lot of assets from double dash (a gamecube game). This game came out the same year as games like resident evil 4 which originally released on the gamecube. This game and other early ds games were advertised in gamecube demo disks because the wii wasn’t even out yet. Why do I bring all this up? Because I just find it interesting that this game that even I associate with the later 7th gen is actually way older than it feels. This game is almost 18 years old. Yeah.

A point I would like to add to MKDS's balloon battles: the fact that this gamemode functions as an elimination style free-for-all makes it so much more strategic, exciting and intense than later versions of balloon battle. The current system of "hit as many things as you can, and lose half your points if you die" just comes off to me as a chaotic "throw your items everywhere in the hope that they hit something" rather than a game of both offensive and defensive strategy

In my middle school we used to play Mario Kart DS every single break we got. We mostly played balloon battle with a single balloon. I seriously miss being able to do this in modern Mario Karts. Even though we just pressed select to blow up balloons when we did do it. It was very competitive for us, especially with the way red shells worked in that game. It got to a point we needed two rooms because we were with 12 players. So we ended up grading the players so the worst 2 people from the full room had to play in the other room so the best 2 from that group could join us. This went on for like 3 years. That is when we sadly changed to MK7. The dude that won mostly truly was a beast!

I remember back in the day I would use my Action Replay to suggest from all courses online. It even let you choose battle courses, though if those won the vote it would load them in race mode and you would just mess around on them until time ran out. It was so fun and it worked perfectly so I don't know why you couldn't just do it anyways. In recent years, when I play the game online with people on Wiimmfi, I informed them about the cheat code and half of us all enabled it to just choose from all the tracks online, it's very fun. Never thought I would play that game online again as recently as 2022.

I used to play this like a maniac on my DS when I was a kid. I have so many memories of me trying to unlock all the characters and complete it 100%.

The best thing about this game is mini boost mechanic, i remember playing this game with my brother and cousins and discovered how fast you can go by just making multiple mini boost, we were all so competitive that we found out that best car was the egg car, we also created a clan only family members and we had a lot of fun playing this game on wifi and seeking rivals on internet forums back in 2008 i was 12 years old lmao.

It’s definitely the game I played most. I was never much of a gamer. All I had was a DS and all I played was Mario games. But I remember playing loca multiplayer with kids at school and I had the most wins by a large margin. And the people I played against were gamer nerds who played all kinds of games and consoles.

4:40 R.O.B.’s 20th anniversary. Same reason DK Jr. was added to SMK. It was his 10th anniversary. 12:23 You can inflate your balloons by pressing select. Mario Kart Wii had online tournaments that were similar to MKDS’s mission mode. But limited as they were only available one at a time and for certain amounts of time. I love Mode 7 Mario Kart. Shame everything has to be 3D now to be considered “good”.

Mario kart ds was about the only mario kart game I ever played. So when i played mario kart 8 for the first time I was overwhelmed by the fast, curving tracks, new items and character selection. I even continued do the old dash trick snaking, which just made me slower lol.

This was my first game for the DS! The og chunky one, too. Got both for my 8th birthday and I have a ton of great memories playing via Wi-Fi with other kids in my 4th grade class when we had our free period. At the end of the year the teachers would let us all whip our DS’ out and we’d do mass group battle matches. The multiplayer on that game was next level

In 8th grade, we had a game day in math class. 8 of us had our own ds and we had 8 player races. Even if you didn’t have the game, you could play as shy guy. Going though the whole game with 8 players in math class was epic.

MKDS, the game I knew from school boys huddling up for a fun time together. And, as of now, is still the gold standard for arcade style racing games.
