It's the Dark Souls of Kart racers.

there's no shame in being mario karted.

>Remember when people were annoyed by Wii having 12 racers because of the weird item balance
Doubling the count without thinking about how the item balance would skew probably wasn't a good idea but hey, it's got wholesome animations.

That's just how these games go sometimes.

because in order for nintendo to make this appeal to baby children that cant play for shit they removed any sense of skill and instead made races up to chaotic randomness where anyone can win no matter how fucking bad they are

Exactly. You could be in 1st for 2 laps and then get blue-shelled, red-shelled, lightninged, bumped off the track, and boom—you're in 10th staring at Baby Daisy's back bumper. Mario Kart isn't a race, it's a battle royale disguised as a family party game.

Niᥒty probably thought people would do that in free roam, I don't mind much but making like 200 highways with no way to practice them is beyond retarded.
