Super Mario Kart
The first in the Mario Kart sub-series, Super Mario Kart is a fun and worthy racing battle game for the Super Nintendo. Controls are strong, gameplay is good, and replayability is relatively high.
Drivers
Koopa Troopa
Arguably the most popular driver in the game. He has a high speed, good acceleration, and good steering. He is very easily bumped around due to his low weight. When the computer uses him, he will sometimes throw green or red shells at you.
Toad
He has the same stats as Koopa Troopa. When the computer uses him, he will sometimes throw mushrooms in front of you that will shrink you if you hit them.
