To be honest, this series is pretty shitty

- Rubberband AI destroyed any GP fun
- Unbalanced power-ups make you go from the last place to the first place in five seconds at any point of the race

Crash Team Racing humiliates it.

Shit bait thread, didnt even use meme arrows properly.
First if youre having trouble with the AI, you should get good, since the games were made for 6 yo kids.
Second, its a party/battle racing game, using items to fuck with others is one of the core aspects of gameplay, if you want """"""""serious"""""""" racing experience go play Ridge Racer, or whatever.

CTR sucks, and before you call me a Nintendo fanboy DKR sucks too. Racing games for people who hate racing.

Balance is a zoomer term and a myth.

Mario Kart DS is the only genuinely good Mario Kart, everything else is just inferior to the competition. Double Dash at least has a good gimmick but if you don't think driver switching is fun then there's nothing there for you.

MK64 blew the tits off anything else at the time

As far as racing games go give me daytona or ridge racer, mario kart was novel and showed a new approach to 3D racers but has not held up well over the course of time. CTR however, that's timeless.

Mario Kart 64 was the most fun I ever had with a videogame, me and my friends playing it and the loser had to suck the other ones dick.

[Anonymous No.7229223]

The rubber band AI really ruined this game for me when I realized how it worked. It doesn't feel rewarding at all to go fast and drive well when people just magically show up right next to me anyway, even if I still win.

>Smash 64 comes out
>One of the most fun, innovative, addicting vs. games of all time
>Smash Melee comes out
>Tournaments everywhere, people spend tens of thousands of hours getting better at it
>Smash Brawl comes out
>Rubberband mechanics where you get pretty much a guaranteed kill coming back to the ring over an oponent that's got 40% damage
>Instantly dropped by literally every serious player
There is a thing called competitive gaming, brother, some people enjoy it. That's why you see people having fucking Street Fighter II tournaments to this day and age.

And then immediately got blown the fuck out by Diddy Kong Racing on the same console a year later

Yet people still talk about MK64 to this day, and no one talks about DKR

1. It is a universally agreed upon fact that Mario Kart 64 did not age well.
2. You're talking about DKR right now.

[Anonymous No.7230194]

Crash and Diddy are adventure racing games.
Mario Kart 64 is a (mostly) go-kart game.
If you're not playing the Raceways circuits against your own time, you're doing it wrong.
Imagine caring about the CPU AI in these games...
