	First Impressions - Mario Kart DS // DS /// Eurogamer
		This one is the first proper 3D Mario Kart game on a handheld, has a mixture of new and old tracks and tricks - like the return of shoulder-button hopping - and will let you play multiplayer games wirelessly with people on several continents, for free.
		Mario Kart on the DS, then, which still needs a proper name, is a handsome beast that I very much want to own, but its new tricks are largely subtle or technical.
		Kart detail is quite impressive, with characters visibly steering and wheels visibly turning, some nice screeching tyre effects and Mario and co. leaning into corners.

	Mario Kart DS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mario Kart DS is a racing game in which characters from the Mario universe race each other around on Mario-themed tracks.
		A feature first introduced in Mario Kart 64, Mini-Turbos are momentary speed boosts that can be obtained while drifting, by alternately pressing Left and Right on the D-Pad buttons during a power-slide, until orange sparks appear around their kart.
		Mario Kart DS had a better launch in Japan, where it sold 219,000 copies during its first four days of availability, at the time this was the third best performance for a Nintendo DS title after Animal Crossing: Wild World and Jump Superstars.

	N-Philes :: Reviews :: Mario Kart DS
		Depending on what character and kart you choose to race in, drifting can feel as incredibly tight as it was back on the SNES version or as controlled and wide as Mario Kart 64 fans are used to.
		Mario and his pals were no longer subject to just one standard kart and thus the karts themselves made the difference in performance, rather than the drivers.
		The weight and shape of the DS put a major toll on the hands when index fingers aren't helping to cradle the handheld, and after extended play my hand felt like a cramped claw, which is something that apparently is happening all across the nation.

	Mario Kart DS (ds: 2005): Reviews

		Mario Kart DS takes the best of all of the Mario Kart games and puts them together in a game people will still be playing when the next generation of Gameboy comes out.
		Mario Kart DS is a polishing of the Mario Kart concept and little else.

		Mario Kart DS is a harmonious blend of everything that was great about the previous installments of the wacky kart-racing series.
		MKDS offers a hefty selection of tracks to choose from – 32 in all, 16 of which are pulled from previous Mario Kart games to compile a Retro Cup.
		Mario Kart DS isn’t just packed with content, it’s also outfitted with what are unquestionably the most amazing visuals on the Nintendo DS so far.

	Mario Kart DS: Nintendo DS Game Reviews - The Armchair Empire
		That being said, Mario Kart DS keeps the good times rolling, doing away with the gunner/driver dynamic of Mario Kart: Double Dash, returning to some more straightforward kart racing found in earlier games in the series.
		As with any Mario Kart game, this installment has a ton of different power-ups to help players along over the course of the game.
		Together these help to make Mario Kart DS the sort of game that helps melt away one’s worries, even if only for a short time, and that is most certainly a welcome sight in a time where so many games are about gritty, angst-riddled anti-heroes.

	Mario Kart DS Review
		Mario Kart DS is the embodiment of pure kart racing goodness, an almost faultless paradigm that is undeniably the finest kart racing game created to date.
		Another addition seen in Mario Kart 64, though not often publicized, was the ability to gain speed by riding up and use the speed from another racer to propel you forward, similar to a Mini-Turbo.
		Mario Kart DS is easily the finest kart racing experience to date, as well as being the best title in the series overall.

		Newcomers will be able to breeze through the 50cc series in a matter of hours, while picking up the basics; series veterans will find 100cc to be just their speed (no pun intended); and the 150cc class offers truly wicked competition, with the driving skill of the AI matched only by its ruthlessness.

	Mario Kart DS Preview for DS - Pro-G
		Mario Kart DS is undoubtedly one of Nintendo's key upcoming games for the DS and this was apparent at their post E3 Games Tour.
		While the karts weren't the fastest (hopefully due to it being a low CC race), the frame rate was very smooth; something we hope will remain the same when racing on some of the more complex race tracks.
		If you are looking forward to Mario Kart DS, we haven't seen anything that could potentially ruin your enjoyment of the game, but we also have seen anything that will set this apart from the other games in the series.

	CLUB SKILL: Nintendo DS : Mario Kart DS - Mario Kart DS Review
		Mario Kart may just be the most well-known racing game franchise available.
		Obviously Nintendo wants Mario Kart to continue to appeal to the not-so-hardcore Nintendo fans, so they’ve taken a step back and given each racer their own individual kart in the latest instalment of the popular franchise.
		However, Mario Kart DS offers a staggering amount of single player modes which may very well keep you playing the mode for, as I have done, at least thirty hours before you even begin to master the game.

	Review - Mario Kart DS // DS /// Eurogamer
		Mind you, even I, the chap who famously loved Mario Kart: Double Dash like a child when most of the other critics decided to hate it, have to confess that conquering single-player Mario Kart has become more of an unshakable habit than a true delight.
		As for multiplayer Mario Kart, it remains something quite exceptional, and transferred to the DS ("reborn on" would be pushing it), it's grown into that rarest of things: a handheld game that people will genuinely spend more time playing with others than alone.
		Except that if the DS in Mario Kart DS stands for anything, perhaps it's "default state", because it's hard to imagine a time when I'll be reluctant to return to the multiplayer racing - and as long as there are people who feel likewise, it'll be a game that richly rewards anyone's investment.

		All in all, the Nintendo DS Mario Kart Bundle is a absolutely great buy for anybody who has the need to get a video game system this year.
		I already had a DS, but it sadly went dead (due mainly to spilling coke all over it, and even then it lasted a month or two more) and this is a wonderful replacement.

		But since Mario Kart 64 introduced the analog stick, and added the left-right wiggle to enhance drifting, I was rather concerned how this would translate back from an analog stick to the directional pad.
		Mario Kart wouldn’t be Mario Kart without items, and the DS version has a decent mix of old and new items.
		Mario Kart DS is no different, and if you’re in first place, don’t expect to get mushrooms for boost, or lightning bolts to strengthen your lead.

	Review: Mario Kart DS for DS on Gamepro.com.
		The hugely popular multiplayer party racer, Mario Kart, comes to the DS fully loaded with classic characters, a bunch of new tracks, and a wireless multiplayer mode that's to die for.
		The top screen is used to show actual gameplay, while the bottom screen shows the course map, and shows the players current race position and your competitor's current power-ups--which adds a lot of strategic depth in deflecting competitor's attacks and blocking their paths.
		Mario Kart allows up to eight players to connect via the DS download and play function (where only one cartridge is needed for all racers, but the gameplay is limited), or the Multi-Card function (where all racers have the Mario Kart cartridge and the gameplay sports the full version of features and courses).
