From those late night couch sessions on the SNES to revamped online battles in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, this Origin Oracle walks through each entry, from Super Mario Kart’s Mode 7 innovation and Mario Kart 64’s mini-turbo to the co-op magic of Double Dash and Mario Kart Wii’s game-changing bikes. We’ll cover handheld standouts like Mario Kart DS and Super Circuit, even the entire arcade series like Mario Kart Arcade GP, the mobile gacha game in disguise, Mario Kart Tour, and a sneak peek at Mario Kart World on Switch 2.
