SNES carts are getting at the age where the batteries are starting to die. I'm concerned I'll lose all my best race times.

How do you countersteer in the game?

Ha ha! My NES games still save.
for now

> where the batteries are starting to die
Can't you change them?

[Anonymous No.2893586]

>>2893580
Yeah, but not before taking the battery out and losing the saves.

I mean, granted, it's possible to replace the battery while the cartridge is inside the powered system, but that's a pretty big pain.

I'm pretty amazed this game still has such an active community these days.

From online play, wolrdwide tournaments, timetrial contests, course making via romhacking, etc

This kind of things is usually reserved to PC games, especially on the long term. So, respect.

But I still don't like the game because CPU Mario and Luigi are filthy cheaters.

[Anonymous No.2893618]

>>2890939
actually, why the screen is split in 2 in all those games on the snes?

[Anonymous No.2893782]

>>2893590

I couldn't believe it either.

[Anonymous No.2893824]

Do people prefer this to 64? I had Genesis growing up and then N64 and SNES Mario Kart always looked kinda hectic due to the poor graphics (as well as the GBA one) compared to N64 Mario Kart.

>Do people prefer this to 64?
They aren't people if they do.

Question: is there any benefit to making your character permently small on the select screen, like fasterness or something?

[Anonymous No.2893904]

I wish all of Mario kart games had the same physics as this one...

[Anonymous No.2893918]

>>2893824
I do, MK64 is awful compared to SMK. Blue Shell was a bad addition to the series and MK64's Rainbow Road is the worst in the entire series.

I thought they were both decent entries in their own ways. I don't mind the Blue Shells and its version of RR is far from the worst for me. I think that honor goes to DS personally.

retards gonna retard.

[Anonymous No.2894539]

>>2890939
Okay

[Anonymous No.2894545]

>>2890939
Are we talking about all 4 retro entries in the series or just the first one?

[Anonymous No.2895373]

>>2894545

Just the first one.

I don't know of my times are good. All I can tell you is I played SMK for a solid year when I was 8.

They're better than mine.

[Anonymous No.2897853]

Think I need to order some tools as I need to put a new battery into my cartridge so It'll actually save my times all over again...

[Anonymous No.2897881]

>>2893824
I prefer MK64 in EVERY way. I think the fact that you can't powerslide in MK really limits the gameplay, feels kind of empty.

[Anonymous No.2899216]

>>2893586

What? You simply bridge it while switching. Soldering recommended.
