My favourite has got be Mario Kart Wii, it's still got a community and I'd say it is the Melee of Mario kart.

Plenty of good tracks, roster and bopping music.

What about you? What is your favourite Mario kart? I know Double Dash has a soft spot in some people's hearts.

8 (DX but really my favorite parts of it were already on Wii U). 8's tracks are incredible (not the booster packs one, those are a mixed bag and none really reach base game/Wii U dlc level).

Wii comes very close though. It's the first to have good item balance IMO, it gets rid of the left-right bullshit to drift, and circuits are quite fun too. And some bikes are a blast, though to the point of being overpowered.

I just think of 8 as "we took everything good in Wii and made it a bit better".
