Game Rant's Phillipe Bosher writes, "Earlier this morning, Nintendo shocked the world by announcing the Nintendo 3DS, a successor to the hugely popular Nintendo DS system. But what is a gaming platform without software to back it up? Here at Game Rant, we've been thinking about the games that we really want to see land on the 3DS, and how they'll work."
Mario Kart DS still plays a fine game of handheld Mario Kart more than 20 years after its initial release.
I really liked the Mission Mode. They had you doing crazy stuff like driving backwards, or collecting all the collectibles as quick as you can between a litter of enemies.
They should add it to Mario Kart 9 for sure, along w online leaderboards for the mission stuff. That's how they could expand on the already excellent Mario Kart 8, bc track quality it's hard to imagine them getting much better beyond slightly tighter graphics and 4k on the Switch 2. Maybe more Diddy Kong Racing-esque adventure layout w more emphasis on boats and planes.
It's hard to say that Mario Kart DS is the best "handheld Mario Kart" though, bc Mario Kart 8 is handheld. It's definitely got some uniqueness that I appreciated. The 2 merged together would be amazing.
I don't think Mario Kart 8 (and Deluxe) rank too highly for me, personally. There's just not as much life in them.
Mario Kart Double Dash, MKDS and Super Mario Kart are the only three that are actually fun to play. Sure MK8 is pretty but its just that. It lacks the soul of double dash. the DS one controls really really well and the orignial with the feather power up is cool.
Hard to disagree with that, really how can all the other games (especially after it) have less single player content?
DKR managed a better game on the 64 and Mario Kart gets away with literally the bare minimum all the time.
Castlevania’s twilight years were some of its best, but they were not enough to avert the dramatic end of the series as we knew and loved it.
Someone should fire to the lowest pit the guy on Konami that thought mobile gaming was the future and destroyed MGS, Castlevania and other franchises in the way.
Tears of the Kingdom may be about to become everyone's new favorite, but there's one DS game that deserves more shine.
Golden sun would be nice, but I don't think that's likely since they're already developing one for the regular DS right now. If it does release it probably wont be a launch title.
That pic is full of win. Nintendo should have the game characters jumping out the 3DS in their ads.
If so, wouldn't it be called the 3DSi?
it looks great

thats actually pretty impressive, instead of it flying our of the screen it actually flows to the back
nvm this is actuall a wiiware title still impressive and who knows this could be it
I think that Nintendo surprise Sony, because Sony was the first wants 3D technology for consumers, I think Sony have to work about it :)
