The possibilities are near endless - and always funny. Peach and Daisy can join forces in Donkey Kong's rickety woodmobile Peach's vintage pink auto can play host to a Baby Mario and Waluigi double-team and Bowser can career around in Wario's comedy jalopy - with Mario in the back seat. Why so many? Partly because, for the first time ever, it's two characters to a kart - with no restrictions on who pairs up with who, and your choice of kart independent of the racers you choose. But a host of new faces want in on the high-speed thrills, too, so prepare yourself for a character select screen crammed with the likes of Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Koopa Trooper (welcome back!), Diddy Kong, Waluigi and more - making for a total of at least 16 riders.
The character list is full of familiar faces - long-time kart pilots like Mario, Luigi, Peach and Yoshi, all present and correct on Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Advance, wouldn't miss this Nintendo GameCube incarnation for the world. And the fourth in the Mario Kart series? That's Mario Kart Double Dash!! - and its everything its velocity-packed prequels were, and much, much more. The third was small but beautifully formed. The second delivered multiplayer perfection.
