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?
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…
Mario Tanooki
Tanooki Mario or Birdo for the creepiness factor.
Tanooki Mario has great stats. Also my choice
Do you know where I can find some cool sites about MK8 stats?
Not off the top of my head. I’ll go google around though! I’m sure that exists…
Edit: maybe this? https://www.mariowiki.com/Mario_Kart_8_Deluxe_in-game_statistics
Very cool, thanks!
I pick Peach every time. Just for the gender euphoria. 😊
SNES, GC: Koopa Troopa/Nokonoko
64/GBA/DS: Yoshi, Toad
Wii and onward: Koopa, Bowser or their bony variants 💀
My go-to is toad…he’s just so light, makes drifting and handling so much easier.
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.
Shy Guy’s also gotta be pretty far up the list in terms of voice lines
Baby Peach. IDK why but I always have.
Side opinion: Mario Kart Wii is the best MK game created. Change my mind.
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
Waluigi
Wah hah hah! I’mma gonna weeeeeen!
Yoshi
I like picking bowser, just because I find barging around the course as king Koopa pretty fun
One of the best joys in Mario Kart is feeling large and in charge lol
Toad always!
My partner is Baby Mario and I’m Peach
I usually pick dry bones, bowser, or iggy koopa. I just love the koopas too much lol.
I like driving with Mario, just feels right :). Also Donkey Kong because of a severe case of nostalgia for Donkey Kong Country.
