honestly, CTR owns both except for easiest local 4P

Tie between Mario Kart and DKR. Flying was fun af.

CTR is literally the perfect kart racer

>>6714904
Crash

*ahem*

Multiplayer: Mario Kart 64
Single Player: Diddy Kong Racing
Time Trial: CTR

CTR. It's not even a competition

Diddy Kong racing did it best. What other racing game has an interactive hub world n also allows you to fly planes. Not to mention, also allows you to play as conker.

>>6714904
CTR. The OG Naughty Dog CTR, that is. All other answers are contrarian cope.

>Flying was fun af.
Yeah it was. Plus the story wasn't half bad

MK64 for being more like an actual go-karting game, the others are more like adventure racing games, especially Diddy Kong Racing with its planes and water hovercrafts. Not bad, but I prefer the more tight go-karting experience of MK64. Also it has my favorite mini-turbo input method.

Diddy Kong has the best graphics and single player mode.
Mario Kart had the best items and gameplay/feel.
CTR is just kind of meh.

>>6714904
Never played CTR but DKR is superior to MK. MK doesn't look very good and is boring to play alone. DKR has boss races and a neat hub world with areas to unlock. MK has 16 tracks and that's it.

Super Mario Kart trumps all games mentioned in this thread

>>6714904
Shamefully, MK64 is the first (console) game I ever played, and I love the feel. It will always be my bottom bitch.

It’s been too long since I’ve played DKR to give a fair assessment, and I don’t think I’ve ever played CTR, what makes it so popular?

I also unironically like Sonic R. The janky controls are half of the fun.

>>6715039
It’s a good game, but I need that third dimension.

>>6715032
Also DKR has the thing where you redo all the levels while collecting coins or some shit. Gives it some extra difficulty.

>>6714904

>>6715046
the shortcuts and the boost system

>>6715054
Nice collection of scotkarters.

>>6714927
I'm not one who has a hate boner for Sonic R, but honestly it probably is the worst of the scotracers

YOU'RE THE ONE THAT MAKES ME FEEL SO HIGH

SMK was good for the time, but it's too flat and boring. After playing the best racers in the gens afterwards, I can't go back

>>6715060
Sonic R's better when you view it more as a speed running collect-a-thon than a racer. It's way to short and the controls aren't the best, but the the exploration aspect of it is nice. Short but sweet

>Sonic R is a wonderful new 3D racing game which offers real speed and action. That hasn't happened before. Sony aren't doing it on any of their games - particular Crash. And Mario is not doing anything at that speed.

>>6715054
Jet Moto (Racer?) 2 will always be my №1. I still dream about that one heaven+hell track as well as the nighttime urban loop-de-loop.

>>6714904
DKR > CTR > MK64

If CTR had flying, it would be #1.

I never understood what is so great about MK64. It's a fun game, but both DKR and CTR did it better.

>>6714904
MK64. The driving in the other two is boring, especially in DKR

Lego Racers motherfuckers

Sonic R's controls become a lot easier to understand once you know that the game was originally designed as a more traditional racer with stock cars instead of mascots running on foot. Learning how to drift with the shoulder buttons improves the game 1000%. It's honestly not too bad

You have to use the button acceleration controls instead of the forward acceleration. Game controls really well with them.

>>6714904
Chocobo Racing

>>6714947

>>6714904
None of them

>>6714904
What makes you think they tried to achieve the same thing?

>>6715039
It should be nicknamed super hardio kart. it's a good game but damn

>>6715059
if this is the way society is going we need to kill all the babies now

Diddy Kong Racing and CTR are both pretty good in my book, if only because they have actual campaigns. CTR has more personality, tighter gameplay, and consistent framerate.

Mario Kart 64 is the classic, for better or for worse.

Sonic R confused me, then terrified me (I was a young bab) once I unlocked the Tails Doll and looked it up.

SMK feels too slippery to me nowadays. Maybe I've been spoiled by analog movement, but I don't remember having that same gripe with F-Zero

>janny deletes berniepost quoting his hype/praise for sanic r
It never even began for shiturncels...

>>6715039
Me and my 3 friends disagree. Cool for the genre but MK64 was miles ahead.
