Hands down, the best current game for the Game Boy Advance
Although this game is not being released in the US for another month, I bought the imported Japanese version a few days ago (it's called "Mario Kart Advance" overseas), and I have been absolutely enthralled by it ever since my purchase. The graphics are phenomenal and really show off the capabilities of the Game Boy Advance's 32 bit processor. The backgrounds are lush and vivid, and the individual cars are detailed nicely. The music and sound effects are great as well, and the gameplay is true to the classic Super Mario Kart. For those that have played both the Super NES version and the N64 version, I'd say that this game is a bit closer to the original SNES game (which I personally thought was a better game than the N64 sequel).
I'd also like to mention that this game blows away Konami's Krazy Racers. I own both games, and wish that I had saved my money and bought only Mario Kart. Mario Kart has so much more depth that it puts Krazy Racers to shame. Mario Kart...
Fantastic game, but it comes with a warning
Happy New Year everyone! I just received a Game Boy Advance as a Christmas present. I had some doubts about the Mario Kart series going hand-held, but, as a big fan of the series, I still decided to make this game the first of my new Game Boy Advance collection.
What a surprise! This game is actually just as good as its predecessors! With vibrant graphics, crisp sound, lots of tracks (so far I've discovered 24), tight play control, and all the characters from the past two Mario Kart games, the GBA Mario Kart is sure to keep the series alive and well!
The best all-new features in this game would have to be the never-before-seen tracks. They are remarkably imaginative and beautifully detailed (especially Sunset Wilds), and although they're not very long (the longest one takes about 2 minutes and 45 seconds to complete 3 laps), they're loaded with obstacles that range from the quicksand traps of the Yoshi Desert to the blind mice of Cheese Land. Also, the play control is...
Mario Kart Super Circuit
Mario Kart Super Circuit is a great deal. With 20 courses, different modes, fun characters, and super graphics, Super Circuit is the best GBA racing game ever. Special feature is 1 cartridge can play up to 4 players with just the Game Boy Advance Game Link Cable (too bad it's not included). There's eight different characters including Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, Toad, Bowser, Donkey Kong, and Wario. The controls are simple with attacking items that can make yourself defensive and a sudden burst of speed. Others can make enemy racers lose items and crash. In Mario Kart Super Circuit, there's different cups, Mushroom (easy, Flower (medium), Thunder (hard), Star (advanced), and last but not least the Special Cup(win all four cups to compete in the Special Cup.)
