Fun fact. Mario kart wii had a huge customization regarding the races. I remember using the "crazy item" which basically gave you rare itemas ALL the time. My mother and I used to have such a great time with that chaos xD
I dont recall mkwii having a "crazy item" because maybe its a mandela effect because i think you refer to the "7" item that appeared in mk 7, or maybe you got it mixed up
My boy, this channel is for snippets! This is a 3 hour compilation! I’m not complaining but it’s like I went in for a one night stand and walked out with a marriage
@@parkour267 My recommendation is the Wii, since it's easy to get your hands on one and it's dead-simple to mod (and as long as you're careful, extremely difficult to brick). Runners-up would be the 3DS and PS Vita, but those are far harder to find
19:45 I get how this can be frustrating for veterans, but as someone who is a casual smash player, it got me to try out tons of characters that i'd never even think of playing otherwise. Ideally, a cheat code to unlock everyone would have been the best move, but I don't think those words have been uttered once in a modern game developer's headquarters in over 15 years...
Double Dash with 16 players was, in fact, magical. We had an all-day gaming event with varied tourneys, doing as much with DD using 4 consoles and 4 projectors on 100 in projector screens, and…goddamn! Memories!

Wonderful idea for a compilation! I usually watch Scott the Woz episodes ordered by release in a playlist, but sometimes it’s nice to watch a grouping of interconnected episodes all together at once, and this is a group of episodes perfect to be put together. I think one for all the “Wii” games could be cool too, even throw Wii Chess in there since it IS a “Wii” game.
Mario Kart DS was my Mario Kart. It's well balanced, the visuals were great, gameplay was smooth, there were bots to fight against in battle mode, there was a single player mission mode, and Online at the time was thrilling.
I loved Mario Kart DS so much, It was the first game I 100%ed! And the best part was that other people could play the game with you even if they didn't have the game themselves. For a few years anytime my cousins came over we would spend hours racing each other. It breaks my heart later games made it so you had to have the game to join multiplayer races
During pandemic lockdown and work from home, Scott’s vids were always great to play in the background while I did my job, and the Mario Kart playlist was always one of my faves. The 8DX BCP was brought up twice by him so far and I do await when he can talk more about them or give thoughts on each wave and course. Maybe the Switch 6th and 7th year videos because I don’t think the BCP is enough to warrant its own separate vid and Mario Kart installment.
I think smart steering was added to MK8 deluxe for younger kids, and IMO it's a really smart idea especially if you wanna play with your younger siblings who can't quite video game just yet and still have it be fun for them too.

I grew up with Mariokart DS and played for several years- by the time Mariokart 7 was released, I was amazed by the new mechanics introduced (I.e, flying, driving underwater etc.) and found games 7 and 8 legendary. Nowadays, their standards are quite ordinary for gaming. Looking back is one of the only things that make me feel old. 😂
Was anyone else genuinely surprised to hear the old outro track at the end of this compilation? It was a pleasant surprise for sure, but I just figured Scott would want that Brand Consistency™️ and would use the new one instead.
Mario kart 7 will always hold a special place in my heart, it was the first Mario Kart game I was able to 100% and I love the gliding feature, I genuinely enjoy 7 more than Mario Kart wii
A neat little fact for those that don't know it (Scott seemed to skip over it). If you are the item player, you can use L or R to shift the kart to slam into an opponent to either push them off the track, avoid hazards or items on the track that the driver might hit into, and if you hit into someone while they have an item in hand, you can steal the item from them and use it immediately afterwards. It adds a bit of strategizing but also has led to many arguments due to the driver being thrown odd because of it. Also ds balloon battle, you can hold select to blow up balloons. Mic is faster though
A super interesting factoid I learned from the gaming historian - there was actually a very specific reason that the CPU racers in Super Mario Kart had exclusive items and abilities. For reasons I don’t fully understand (on account of not being a software engineer with an understanding of how these numerical systems work in programming), the development team couldn’t figure out how to execute the randomized item distribution system for both human racers AND computer players. Or at least, they couldn’t get it working without having to make severe cuts into other aspects of the game. The system we all know and don’t love was basically the most well-balanced compromise they could come up with on the hardware. Proper item distribution for human racers where the items are randomized differently based on one’s placing, and one specific power-up assigned to each computer character. That way it was still well-balanced, but didn’t require near as much computing power.
Mario Kart 64 came out when I was 7. Super circuit came out when I was 11. I played the shit out of 64 with friends. But also with my grandmother. She loved it. We would literally stay up until 2-4 AM playing it. Did that for years when I'd go stay with her for the weekend. She also loved several other games. Mario party, etc. Good times. I've only played 64, super circuit, double dash (once), and just bought 8 today.....10 years late. But it's a huge jump from the 64. I like it.
I’m glad the gran turismo inspiration was mentioned because Mario Kart DS specifically always felt like it took lots of great ideas from GT4 and made them their own. I miss that era of racing games
Turned this video on in the bkround late at night so no one would hear the video on my phone but was genuinely to enthralled in the fun and interesting Mario kart content and was cured of my sins
1:06:40 "you can probably play the entire game on the bottom screen if you're a complete f*cking maniac" this is exactly how I played it back in the day. Why? Because the bottom screen was unaffected by the Blooper's ink and I could just drive as normal using the bottom screen map. My friends were always annoyed when they got the Blooper playing against me because it was effectively how Scott described the Feather in Super Mario Kart: "Waste it to get a better item next time"
18:06 - I love the sheer amount of "aging like milk" that statement underwent Nevermind that, if memory serves, Kamek had a logo sitting around in MK8's files, meaning he did in fact get another chance but ultimately blew it there too _But_ he did eventually end up existing in the stupid phone one and further eventually ended up in a real Mario Kart via Deluxe's Booster Pass He's one of the 3 good things I could ever possibly say about that thing, in part because it's just vindicating seeing him in a [again, real] Mario Kart after his history of being cut from 2 different entries
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
"Of course no matter what people kept predicting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe would get DLC every year after its release. Just give up." This is my favorite line, only because we eventually did get DLC, our prayers were heard! xD

I actually like the idea of SMK to cut half the screen and use the map for the other half. It immediately allows the player to get used to playing like that, rather than forcing 2 people to get used to it at the same time.
@@tmw3489that wasn’t explained in the video so why u being a dick to this guys comment. And no that wasnt the whole basis of the game lol. Its meant for multiplayer not coop. That was just an add on feature
Just came here to say that Super Mario Kart felt super archaic visyally even in 1993. We all had seen glimpses of fast 3d racing games at that point. It had to live on the merits of its gameplay alone, especially battle mode. (MK8 not having one was insane)
DS is my favorite purely for the memories I had with it. In like 6th and 7th grade me and my friends would all bring our DS’s and play during bus rides and lunch and stuff and it was so much fun. Nowadays I play MK8 Deluxe and I feel like I get to competitive more than just sitting back and laughing at all the wacky happenings
The reason why the CPUs have different items was because the Super Famicom/Super Nintendo wasn't powerful enough "to calculate item odds for both human and computer-controlled players." (Gaming Historian) So they gave the CPUs specific items only they could use based on their character.
Not gonna lie, I was expecting a compilation of his Mario Kart episodes to be uploaded on his main channel, much like the "Dark Age of Nintendo" series or the "Wiiware Chronicles" series. But hey, uploading it here sounds fine too.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
scott i know this is a completely worthless testimony but i was having a hellish time last night because my eye hurt so bad and i just stuck a wet washcloth over there for like 2 hours and the whole time i was lying there feeling not so nice, i was listening to this video and it was just really neat so thanks for making so many youtube videos that really helped me right then
Didn’t realize how rare MarioKart Wii was when it came out. I was 8-9 and had a best friend whose parents spoiled them so they had all the latest video games. At the time, my friend had a supreme hatred of everything Mario for some reason so they gave me the game for free along the SSBB. Forever grateful for them as we didn’t have much money to spare growing up!
I love how the entire premise of the MK8DX video is irrelevent now seeing how there are 48 more courses in 8 deluxe then 8, which would probably convince *god* that MK8DX is a different game.
Just for the record, the way to handle driving in the first Super Mario Kart is to hop into and out of turns. Many years ago, I had a couple roommates who were diehard fans of the game and had nightly tournaments. I learned how to play SMK from those guys and really learned to love it.
The best part about Double Dash is that I can play with my kid, who can't quite master the steering aspect yet, and she can handle the offense while I focus on the driving. It's a lot of fun. Interestingly, while she can't keep from crashing her kart every five seconds in Double Dash, she can regularly kick my butt in Super Smash.
I'm surprised you didn't mention how each character in the early games had secret speed stats! Like, Toad was apparently the fastest, but nothing would tell you that in game. Also, in defense of Double Dash's "P1 drives, P2 does items", this was basically designed for younger siblings. When I was little, I wasn't good at the driving part, but because of this mode, I could still have fun with my big bro!
Mario Kart 9 should use an RPG element for single player. Collecting coins allows you to buy certain items to build out your car or buy items, as items aren’t collectibles in the tracks but rather things you must purchase between races. There could be an over-world map that you can drive on, driving from one race to the next. A story other than rescuing a person from a villain as well.
Scott love the content my man but fun fact donkey Kong Jr. Is the donkey Kong we have now and crankey Kong was the donkey Kong from the original arcade game, so in between super Mario kart and Mario kart 64 he grew up!
Kids these days have no idea how mindblowing the very existence of Mario Kart on SNES was back then. I love any version of Kart, but nothing gives me that same feeling that the first one did at the time. Side note, trying to get 64 for my 64 and Double Dash for my GameCube, but omg so much $$$$.
I hope he’s gonna release compilations for all of the 3D Mario games, the Mario Party games, the 2D Mario games, and all of Nintendo’s different consoles (before the Switch, since he already released a 6 hour compilation just focused on the Switch)
Man, remember this like it was yesterday. The videonow was so cool as it's own unit. Soon after GBA video released, remember the Pokemon and Sonic ones first in stores. They were priced lower than games, but higher than Videonow discs. I knew it was the better option but videonow as a format was more interesting to me. Then the color version came, it was a huge step up. But man, that Band geeks episode is graved in my mind forever!
The thing about the personal customizable emblems in Mario Kart DS is they were shown when you played against other people online, so it became a way for people to express their individuality
I think my favourite tidbit about MK64, to this day, is triple tapping A after getting hit while playing as a light character. 0 to 60 in just three taps
Mission mode on MKDS and the minigames on New Super Mario Bros should have been compulsory additions to every future entry in the series. Waluigi Pinball is what heaven looks like.
Thing is with handheld multiplayer, that's how ALL games worked multiplayer so it feels very unfair to mark it down for that. Multiplayer on the Game Boy was around since Tetris in 1989 and it was like that for TWELVE YEARS; not only did you have to bring a Game Boy and a link cable, but you also both had to have the same game, so it was really rare. I only ever played a few handheld games multiplayer a handful of times, like Dr Mario, Tetris and of course, Pokémon. When the GBA came out and it let you play Mario Kart with only one of you owning the game, it was amazing and it was a point in its favour, not against. Because I could take my game boy to school whereas I couldn't take my Gamecube or N64 to school, I actually ended up playing Mario Kart SC and DS multiplayer the most out of all of them, despite single cart being very limited. Definitely agree that SC hasn't aged well though along with SMK and MK64, and that MK7 is the most forgettable. I don't personally think MKDS has aged well either, and I think MKW has more of a niche than you're giving it credit for, it feels like the most technical Mario Kart due to bikes and wheelies. However largely I agree there's little reason not to just playing MK8D aside from MKDD, even though I had the most fun with Mario Kart Wii.

A neat little fact for those that don't know it (Scott seemed to skip over it). If you are the item player, you can use L or R to shift the kart to slam into an opponent to either push them off the track, avoid hazards or items on the track that the driver might hit into, and if you hit into someone while they have an item in hand, you can steal the item from them and use it immediately afterwards.
It adds a bit of strategizing but also has led to many arguments due to the driver being thrown odd because of it.

I've only played 64, super circuit, double dash (once), and just bought 8 today.....10 years late. But it's a huge jump from the 64. I like it.
I’m glad the gran turismo inspiration was mentioned because Mario Kart DS specifically always felt like it took lots of great ideas from GT4 and made them their own. I miss that era of racing games
Thank you for giving me an excuse to go back an like every single Mario Kart video you made in order 😌
Turned this video on in the bkround late at night so no one would hear the video on my phone but was genuinely to enthralled in the fun and interesting Mario kart content and was cured of my sins
Man, I still wish Scott started his Mario Kart 64 video with the end of his Super Mario Kart video. He's usually so good with continuity.
1:06:40 "you can probably play the entire game on the bottom screen if you're a complete f*cking maniac" this is exactly how I played it back in the day. Why? Because the bottom screen was unaffected by the Blooper's ink and I could just drive as normal using the bottom screen map. My friends were always annoyed when they got the Blooper playing against me because it was effectively how Scott described the Feather in Super Mario Kart: "Waste it to get a better item next time"
WHO’S READY FOR SCOTT TO PULL A MARIO 3D WORLD AND TALK ABOUT MARIO KART 8 A THIRD TIME ONCE THE COURSE PASS IS COMPLETE?!?!^^
Bruh Scott I’m literally in the middle of my every-so-oftenly rewatch of your Mario kart videos
The local play on DS was incredible at the time. My introduction to the Mario Kart and Super mario came through the DS
Can't wait for Scott to make a video on the Booster Course Pass, after all the waves are done.
18:06 - I love the sheer amount of "aging like milk" that statement underwent
Nevermind that, if memory serves, Kamek had a logo sitting around in MK8's files, meaning he did in fact get another chance but ultimately blew it there too
_But_ he did eventually end up existing in the stupid phone one and further eventually ended up in a real Mario Kart via Deluxe's Booster Pass
He's one of the 3 good things I could ever possibly say about that thing, in part because it's just vindicating seeing him in a [again, real] Mario Kart after his history of being cut from 2 different entries
Fun fact, I prefer said stupid phone game over half the real entries in this series.
Mario Kart DS was my very first ever video game and i love it to this day. I fire it up every now and then to play a round or two.
Mario Kart DS was my jam and I for one loved snaking.
I really wish I could have told Scott he can avoid the pow block by shaking the Wiimote at the right time
The only two and a half hour video I will ever need
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
King James Version
15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
"Of course no matter what people kept predicting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe would get DLC every year after its release. Just give up." This is my favorite line, only because we eventually did get DLC, our prayers were heard! xD

18:06 "Kamek got another chance as a Mario Kart character never."
That aged well.
im not joking i fell asleep one night and woke up at 2am to scott talking abt mario kart 8
18:06 my boy finally finally got his chance as a mario kart character

“Playing the entire game on the bottom screen like a maniac” 🎉😂
I actually like the idea of SMK to cut half the screen and use the map for the other half. It immediately allows the player to get used to playing like that, rather than forcing 2 people to get used to it at the same time.
Double dash co op mode was crazy. Second player could help get a double dash speed boost and could punch and kick other racers. Such an awesome mode
You do realize that was the whole point of the game and that everyone know that, right?
@@tmw3489that wasn’t explained in the video so why u being a dick to this guys comment. And no that wasnt the whole basis of the game lol. Its meant for multiplayer not coop. That was just an add on feature
@@parkour267 disagree hard
Just came here to say that Super Mario Kart felt super archaic visyally even in 1993. We all had seen glimpses of fast 3d racing games at that point.
It had to live on the merits of its gameplay alone, especially battle mode.
(MK8 not having one was insane)
DS is my favorite purely for the memories I had with it. In like 6th and 7th grade me and my friends would all bring our DS’s and play during bus rides and lunch and stuff and it was so much fun. Nowadays I play MK8 Deluxe and I feel like I get to competitive more than just sitting back and laughing at all the wacky happenings
Such a captivating upload.
Laughed so hard at the character select for Mario Kart "Everybody's here" like "What the hell, and Yoshi!"
Double dash was my favorite. Especially after unlocking the golden car.
The reason why the CPUs have different items was because the Super Famicom/Super Nintendo wasn't powerful enough "to calculate item odds for both human and computer-controlled players." (Gaming Historian) So they gave the CPUs specific items only they could use based on their character.
Not gonna lie, I was expecting a compilation of his Mario Kart episodes to be uploaded on his main channel, much like the "Dark Age of Nintendo" series or the "Wiiware Chronicles" series. But hey, uploading it here sounds fine too.

@@Angus-Johnson-8334 Not sure why you felt the need to quote The Bible with this Mario Kart video, but okay.
After listening through this whole thing, I have one major takeaway, the perfect description for all Mario Kart games:
It's Mario Kart.
Also, 2:41:55 implies that buying new shoes is Scott's canon event
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANK YOU SCOTT THESE ARE MY FAVORITE VIDEOS
When I was a kid I thought the "Manual" and "automatic" options in mario kart wii were to use a manual or automatic gearbox.
scott i know this is a completely worthless testimony but i was having a hellish time last night because my eye hurt so bad and i just stuck a wet washcloth over there for like 2 hours and the whole time i was lying there feeling not so nice, i was listening to this video and it was just really neat so thanks for making so many youtube videos that really helped me right then
Didn’t realize how rare MarioKart Wii was when it came out. I was 8-9 and had a best friend whose parents spoiled them so they had all the latest video games. At the time, my friend had a supreme hatred of everything Mario for some reason so they gave me the game for free along the SSBB. Forever grateful for them as we didn’t have much money to spare growing up!
It's still funny how scott doesn't know you could shake the wii remote to avoid the POW
U just brought back memories
I was today years old when I found out this
Glade you spent some time highlighting how hard double dash was, I just found out king boo was in the game because of this video
I love how the entire premise of the MK8DX video is irrelevent now seeing how there are 48 more courses in 8 deluxe then 8, which would probably convince *god* that MK8DX is a different game.
Just for the record, the way to handle driving in the first Super Mario Kart is to hop into and out of turns. Many years ago, I had a couple roommates who were diehard fans of the game and had nightly tournaments. I learned how to play SMK from those guys and really learned to love it.
The best part about Double Dash is that I can play with my kid, who can't quite master the steering aspect yet, and she can handle the offense while I focus on the driving. It's a lot of fun. Interestingly, while she can't keep from crashing her kart every five seconds in Double Dash, she can regularly kick my butt in Super Smash.
My room mates at uni were obsessed with mario kart 64.. you dont look old enough .. :D
I'm surprised you didn't mention how each character in the early games had secret speed stats! Like, Toad was apparently the fastest, but nothing would tell you that in game.
Also, in defense of Double Dash's "P1 drives, P2 does items", this was basically designed for younger siblings. When I was little, I wasn't good at the driving part, but because of this mode, I could still have fun with my big bro!
Mario Kart 9 should use an RPG element for single player. Collecting coins allows you to buy certain items to build out your car or buy items, as items aren’t collectibles in the tracks but rather things you must purchase between races. There could be an over-world map that you can drive on, driving from one race to the next. A story other than rescuing a person from a villain as well.
Scott love the content my man but fun fact donkey Kong Jr. Is the donkey Kong we have now and crankey Kong was the donkey Kong from the original arcade game, so in between super Mario kart and Mario kart 64 he grew up!
I played countless hours of MK DS as ROB and Dry Bobes
Double dash is the king of fighters of racing games
Kids these days have no idea how mindblowing the very existence of Mario Kart on SNES was back then. I love any version of Kart, but nothing gives me that same feeling that the first one did at the time. Side note, trying to get 64 for my 64 and Double Dash for my GameCube, but omg so much $$$$.
I hope he’s gonna release compilations for all of the 3D Mario games, the Mario Party games, the 2D Mario games, and all of Nintendo’s different consoles (before the Switch, since he already released a 6 hour compilation just focused on the Switch)
jsal woah
Scott. This isn’t a snippet, this is a compilation-
Man, remember this like it was yesterday. The videonow was so cool as it's own unit. Soon after GBA video released, remember the Pokemon and Sonic ones first in stores. They were priced lower than games, but higher than Videonow discs. I knew it was the better option but videonow as a format was more interesting to me. Then the color version came, it was a huge step up. But man, that Band geeks episode is graved in my mind forever!
The thing about the personal customizable emblems in Mario Kart DS is they were shown when you played against other people online, so it became a way for people to express their individuality
I think my favourite tidbit about MK64, to this day, is triple tapping A after getting hit while playing as a light character. 0 to 60 in just three taps
Mission mode on MKDS and the minigames on New Super Mario Bros should have been compulsory additions to every future entry in the series.
Waluigi Pinball is what heaven looks like.
Thing is with handheld multiplayer, that's how ALL games worked multiplayer so it feels very unfair to mark it down for that. Multiplayer on the Game Boy was around since Tetris in 1989 and it was like that for TWELVE YEARS; not only did you have to bring a Game Boy and a link cable, but you also both had to have the same game, so it was really rare. I only ever played a few handheld games multiplayer a handful of times, like Dr Mario, Tetris and of course, Pokémon. When the GBA came out and it let you play Mario Kart with only one of you owning the game, it was amazing and it was a point in its favour, not against.
Because I could take my game boy to school whereas I couldn't take my Gamecube or N64 to school, I actually ended up playing Mario Kart SC and DS multiplayer the most out of all of them, despite single cart being very limited.
Definitely agree that SC hasn't aged well though along with SMK and MK64, and that MK7 is the most forgettable. I don't personally think MKDS has aged well either, and I think MKW has more of a niche than you're giving it credit for, it feels like the most technical Mario Kart due to bikes and wheelies.
However largely I agree there's little reason not to just playing MK8D aside from MKDD, even though I had the most fun with Mario Kart Wii.
Wow, the third of Scott's channels to post a million+ view video, so cool!
Scott, your videos always bring a smile to my face
Ah yes, that famous line:
"It's f * * * ing MarioKart again!!!"
MXC was my jam!!! Good stuff. Guy LeDouche!!! Caption Tenneal! Slam ball, battle bots, wrastlin! Spike tv or TNN was great back in the day!
