I played a race of Mario kart world at a kiosk and I did not really enjoy it.

I think 8 deluxe is still the best Mario kart.

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

I own the bundle and think it is good, but Mario kart 8 is better.

mkwii will always be my favorite for sure, 8dx is a solid casual game tho. unimpressed with world when i tried it

[–] brsrklf@jlai.lu 4 points 1 week ago

I have spent a good amount of time on world, and I agree.

Have you tried Mario Kart CTGP? It's basically a modded version of Mario Kart 8 but with all the other Mario Karts maps mashed into 1.

[–] Link@rentadrunk.org 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I agree it’s the best Mario Kart but it’s a modded version of Mario Kart Wii not 8.

There's an 8 deluxe mod ~~by the same guy~~ with a very similar name: https://www.ctgpdx.com/

[–] Link@rentadrunk.org 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s not made by the same team. The original is made by MrBean35000vr and Chadderz.

[–] Hazzard@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

Ah, my bad, fishguy has been around so long I falsely assumed he handled the original! Thanks for the quick correction.

[–] neon_nova@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

Never heard of it, I’ll check it out. It sounds cool.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I should check it out. Thanks for the suggestion.

So in other words they're going to stop selling the bundle. They're not going to stop selling or updating either the Switch 2 or Mario Kart World. They're just going to stop offering the two of them together for a slight discount.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Okay so it wasn't just me that thought the title was a weird way of wording it

[–] twinnie@feddit.uk 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don’t think this is big news.

Time to introduce the Mario 3D bundle and start moving units.
