Who is your go-to character in Mario Kart?
Who is your go-to character in Mario Kart?
I've been racing as Wario ever since MK64. I love being a powerhouse on the racetrack! In the original SNES Mario Kart, since I don't have Wario, Bowser is my backup. It's good to be big
Who do you pick in Mario Kart when it's time to get down to business and dominate the track?
Waluigi number one!
9 0 ReplyToad. For 30 years, it's never been anything but Toad. He's my little mushroom man!
7 0 ReplyI’m also a Toad or nothing! Double Dash Toadette/Toad combo or nothing!

Luigi because everybody underestimates him...until they get destroyed.
7 0 ReplyThe little brother method never fails! Plus we love a good medium weight class character
1 0 ReplyJokes on you because I'm actually an older brother. Always empathized with Luigi though. Major underdog vibes.

Baby Peach. I love to see my friends loosing to her. They gifted me a Princess Peach themed GameCube controller for my birthday.

It used to be Yoshi and Toad because I like light characters. Their acceleration allows them to recover more quickly from hazards. Which in mind makes them more consistent for me.
Ever since baby characters were playable, I’ve almost always picked baby Luigi.

My son and I play Mario kart 8, so it's up to him usually 🤷 but I tend to be Luigi 9 times out of 10, he loves Luigi. Otherwise backup is Mario.
I do also like Koopa Troopa...
5 0 ReplyI like picking bowser, just because I find barging around the course as king Koopa pretty fun
4 0 ReplyOne of the best joys in Mario Kart is feeling large and in charge lol

SNES, GC: Koopa Troopa/Nokonoko

Koopa, either the normal or the skeleton version. Isn't his name dry bones or something like that? Anyway, those are the only two I'll ever play

Although he's not in this list, Shy Guy. I played a lot of the DS Mario Karts, and he was usually my go to. Not really sure why, I guess I just liked his design.
4 0 ReplyShy Guy's also gotta be pretty far up the list in terms of voice lines

Been a Rosalina user fairly consistently since Mario Kart Wii
4 0 ReplyBaby Peach. IDK why but I always have.
Side opinion: Mario Kart Wii is the best MK game created. Change my mind.
4 0 ReplyUsually Luigi on MKDS (I don't quite know why), but in MK8 I use my own Mii - because it's me!

3 0 ReplyAh yes! Wario Numba one!! But I probably played most of my games with the shy guy since I always joined friends on the DS :D But man, that Wii UI brings back warm feelings.
3 0 ReplyI like driving with Mario, just feels right :). Also Donkey Kong because of a severe case of nostalgia for Donkey Kong Country.
