On 50cc? Ok scrub.

Yeah… Seeing this as a retro game hurts. Also, I can’t remember if winning this cup as Yoshi is a noteworthy accomplishment or not.

Bigger characters had a lower top speed, but could maintain speed while turning better. They could also bump lighter characters and spin them out.
My recollection was big characters had a higher top speed, but slow acceleration. Small characters were the opposite. Medium characters didn’t excel or suck at either.
Yeah, Bowser would hit the highest speeds, but if you hit a wall or a shell, it would take forever to get going again.
This isn’t correct for N64 Mario Kart. They actually did give the lightweights the best acceleration and top speed. I found a video that did some analysis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6AxbNL2ET0
That was not my recollection of how it was supposed to work or how it worked in practice, but I found an archive of the original guidebook, and it says exactly what you said. Interesting. I got passed up by Donkey Kong and Bowser on straightaways all the time, but maybe that’s more of a mirror mode challenge thing than a size of the karts things.
Oh yeah, that’s probably just the rubber band effect, which was pretty strong at 150cc.

That’s roughly what is was for the SNES game. Probably N64 too but I don’t recall.
It is not the game is very easy. Yoshi is also one of the best characters (there’s a total of 3 characters, light, medium and heavy).
Want to feel older? Since the N64, we’ve had the GameCube, Wii, Wii U and Switch. The latter of which has been out for 7 years already and is probably going to be replaced soon.
Thanks. I hate it.
I remember getting excited over the NES.
But… like imagine the worth of our stories in 50 years. Well have essentially seen the entire evolution of gaming, from the beginning of digital gaming, personally experiencing it.
We’ll be interviewed like witnesses to historical events.

I played games before there were consoles. I am fucking dust, man.
We’ll get through this together, man!
Congratulations! I hope that you are enjoying the game ^^
I am, thanks!
Excellent work, my favourite Mario Kart due to countless, countless hours spent playing at uni.
Need to set that bad boy to 4:3 not 16:9 for the aspect ratio to be correct though!
i was looking forward to playing this on iphone with Delta but the Analog joystick is mostly digital and sucks for turns.
