I can see why you'd say that. Super Mario Kart is a great game and is my second favorite in the series. About the blue shells. If you are good enough they don't matter. |
I hope you mean second to Mario Kart Wii, if yes then we are completely in agreement. I definitely held Super Mario Kart as the pinnacle of the series until this generation but I felt the added features plus tightening of the control above what was in MK64 and MK DD pushed MK Wii over the top.
I agree that if you are good enough the blue shells don't matter that much. i.e. If you are significantly better than someone 1-2 blue shells isn't going to make a difference on most tracks and if people are of relatively equal skill then blue shell distribution evens out BUT I don't think it really adds anything to the game and for this reason it could be omitted.
OT: Single player NSMBWii is much more enjoyable to play and much better balanced but MK multiplayer is like crack.
