Great fun
I bought this for my sister, and she enjoyed it so much that I had to see what it was about. And now we race and go against each other and the other characters. Great game for one or more people. Love it!

King of the Road
I remember playing "Mario Kart 64" once with a neighbor's kids years ago. Not a big fan of racing games then, I had a lot fun with this game (especially with the Battle Mode) and I've been itching for a chance to experience the fun again. Now I can, any place, any time, thanks to "Mario Kart DS."

Still the undisputed king of handheld racing after its 2005 launch, "MKDS" seems to take the best of every game in the "Mario Kart" series and squeezes it all into that little game card, and sticking that nice label on it. Starting in Grand Prix mode, you choose from 3 engine classes, 8 racers, 2 karts, and 4 cups with 4 courses each. And then you're off! There are more cups, karts and racers hidden in the game but with no cheat codes to speak of, you'll just have to do things the old fashioned way. A map is provided on the touch screen in case you steer off course.

While a great gaming experience, you can only have so fun just racing while unlocking stuff. Fortunately, there's so much more to do in "MKDS." Aside from racing other players wirelessly or online, you can also enter an improved Battle mode with new arenas, including an old-school Nintendo DS. And then there's yet another mode that has you take on different "missions" to unlock more missions. To sum it all up, deciding whether or not this is a quality racing game for your DS, it's a no-brainer.

This game is rated E for Everyone: Mild Violence.

Mario Kart DS
I love this game, i was hesitant to buy at first because i didnt want a repeat of what i already have on the gamecube, but the additions and the missions are a great part of it...i love it!

THE BEST
My children (6 and 7 years old) can't get enough of this Nintendo game. They can play individually or as a group. All the other games have taken a second place.

Great Game Kids Love It!!!
