I am amazed at how many of you are insulting this legendary game. Well worth the five stars. For it's time of release it provides more fun today than a ton of new games do today.

Please, computer catch up is a must- it at least poses a challenge unlike other games. I've learned how to win in the end, and it's definetly skill, not luck. Blue shells being unfair? Just slow down and let the guy behind you pass! Bad turning? Are you kidding, master the power slide PROPERLY and its genius, getting frustrated because it doesn't work for you doesn't warrant a bad rating. This game is all skill, and if you think it's too fast-paced I can't imagine what today's games do to you

Sure some tracks could have been better but look when it was released! Shame I think Mario Kart Wii is going to flop like Double Dash did. Oh well, what can you do?
