Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed made my early adolescence just that bit better. I even bought the game on Steam about a year ago and went through the pain of unlocking every single unlockable again just so I could play as my beloved Reala against people online (considering the Wii U online servers shut down a for quite some time now). Also, playing MK8 Deluxe online every now and again as well as MKWii during my childhood (the smell of my favourite instant ramen brings me back to those times specifically). Really, kart racers were the only games I ever put in the effort to get at least decent at and will always be my favourite genre of video game ever.
Crash Team Racing and Diddy Kong Racing truly defined what the upper echelons of what a kart racing game can aspire and ultimately achieve. Leagues better than any Mario Kart game and the skill level is higher too. They don’t hold your hand or penalize you too much for taking or making shortcuts or staying in the lead for longer than 1 minute.
Toast making a full sized video just go try to trick his viewers to start playing one of his favourite games so he has someone to play with was not no my bingo card, but it's a fair play. Wish I had money to try it, but I haven't even got MK8 and every one of my friends do, so I'd go for that first 😅
I would like to nominate Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers as a potential candidate for the top spot. It unfortunately has a higher skill floor than Mario Kart due to the ring mechanic, where you spend a resource of up to 20 on hand at once, to get a temporary speed boost, but get a lot of hitstun from attacks if you get hit with 0 rings (or less as attacks can take away rings up to -20, where you explode and respawn) can be a bit daunting to new players who cant keep up with everything at once. The CPUs have a customizable difficulty level in either more general setting with Relaxed, Intense, Extreme, and Master, or with numerical levels from 1 - 13, allowing players of any level to enjoy the game. Almost all of the achievements in the game can be obtained with Chao Keys as well, which are like the Golden Hammers for Smash Bros. achievement board. You get these by just doing a certain amount of races. There are also cheat codes that can temporarily or permanently unlock everything at once. It's skill ceiling is somewhere in between Mario Kart and CTR. There are numerous abilities for players to tie together for maximum speed (such as wavedashing where you drift for a second after a boost, let go of drift, and keep holding the direction to build up a charge for as long as you hold the direction, then gain a big boost in speed dependend on how long you charged it up for). Additionally, the CPUs in the single player mode (which there is a LOT of, with both the insane track amount, AND a bunch of achievements, with Kirby Air Ride inspired achievment board), are INSANE at the highest difficulty, while still being a relatively fair fight for high skill players (minus the blatant cheating with rubberbanding and better items for the rival CPU but you can counter it by playing well). But these are made up for in it's still simple controls, and an AMAZING roster of 63 characters (9 base 53 unlockable) and OVER 200 TRACKS. BOTH of which get expanded IMMENSLEY when you take mods into account, which are as easy to instal as dropping a file into a pre-existing mod folder, then using the in game addon feature to just select which mods you want to use. The music is great too, although a vast majority of it is taken from pre-existing games, though the original songs that are in the game are just as good. Alternatively, you could say the same about the game's predecesor: SRB2Kart. everything said above still applies, minus the roster and track size, and the more advanced mechanics like the rings, leaving a more simple kart racer that more people can easily jump into. While that game's base roster and track amount is very low, there are HUNDREDS of character and track mods EACH that already exist for the game that can be installed just as easily. IMO i'd give Dr Robotnik's Ring Racers a win in the best track variety category and a contending spot for best soundtrack (unless you dock points for most of it being ripped from other games)
My favourite Kart Racer is easily Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed chaining boosts together in that gives such a feeling of speed and it’s the perfect difficulty
I’ve been really addicted to Oh Baby Kart lately. It’s worth a look if you haven’t tried it, and it’s worth a second look if you have tried it because it’s constantly being improved. The drifting mechanic is similar to CTR.
I completely agree with your opinions on CTR Nitro Fueled. I bought it around launch even though I never played the original CTR. I lost the first few races in the campaign and was getting my ass kicked by normal difficulty cpu. After not playing the game for a week I picked it back up and got hooked. The skill ceiling is probably 85% of the reason I kept playing. Other than that I loved the free updates with more customization, tracks, and the added difficulties to time trials. I even grinded for the platinum relics and Velo time trials. (I didn't do the dev times though) I consistently played the game for around 2 years and still go back to it sometimes. It's definitely one of my all time favorites.
I honestly grew up with mariokart 8 deluxe and it WAS MY CHILDHOOD. I remember playing the game with my family, the banger soundtracks and just fun level design. My love for it only grew more when they added edits to get rid of certain items (f*** you lightning) to welcome a larger variety of skill levels. So while I disagree with you opinion, I’d still say Crash team racers sounds fun and I’d like to play it someday
Totally agree for CTR, will still be my favorite game of all time. There is also a chance for me to call out another kart racer that is really fun to play, Cars 3, its actually really solid to play. Most im sure might say "oh caddicarus said about that" but genuinely speaking withiut his word on it, i say you should pick it up. It will feel similar to the Sonic racing games in terms of drifitng but boosting is different and can even pull off 2 wheel driving, backwards, and even sideways shunts with the right stick
I would also like to mention in a unique category if there is one that basically how this game separates itself from other kart racers I think sonic team racing its a very fun and good twist on the game as a big part of it is being in a team that can help each other out by giving items and hep boasting your teammates behind you so I ask if you could give this game a review if you ever get a chance at it
Wheres Diddy Kong Racing! That game was so much better than Mario Kart 64. That game actually required a certain level of skill to get good at the game, and learning the different mechanics, like earning a much bigger boost from the zippers by letting go of Accelerate, before driving over them, and using the brake button to turn more sharply for those tricky tight bends. Then you got the hovercraft and plane vehicles to get to grips with. The game has an awesome soundtrack and great characters, but the lack of diverse tracks is apparent. It's like having 4 snow tracks and 4 beach themed tracks, etc. We dont talk about the DS version. They removed Conker and Banjo, soundtracks got mixed up or even removed (Pirate Lagoon), and the racing was slowed down to a snails pace! Plus, the start boosts require a stylus, on the touch screen for start boosts or blowing into the DS' MIC hole for the hovercraft. Eurgh! Stick to the otiginal N64 version!
Me (before watching the video): Another one of these, where Marip Kart 8 Deluxe wins Also me (after watching the video): YESSIR!!! Finnaly a good ranking!!
havent finished the vid yet but i know that it would be realllly cool if you made that ranking all kart racers videos,, ive been on a long form vid binge since i like having a vid open on one window and school work or whatever on another so that would be great
1. Mario Kart Wii 2. Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled 3. Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing Transformed 4. Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway 5. Disney Speedstorm 6.

Pac-Man World Rally 14. Chocobo GP 15. Smurfs Kart 16. Speed Freaks I can't wait to play The Karters 2: Turbo Charged. It's dropping in early 2025 on steam with consoles on a later date. I also can't wait till Oh Baby Kart comes to consoles. It was released on PC back in october. I hope Warner Bros plans on doing their own kart racer. They should do a kart racing mode in MultiVersus. The City of Townsville, Dexter's Lab, Metropolis, Camp Crystal Lake, Jump City, and Gotham City for tracks. I would play tf out of that.
Big Blue and Mute City have the best soundtracks in the entire Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The best part is that you don't even need the expansion pass to listen to these bangers!
Definitely expected Nitro Fueled to come out on top lmaoo I'd hop on the Online as well, but as you said, servers are very much dead and i dont have too much time on my hands to play it more often I'd also like to nominate Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing since the DS port is one of the first racing games i played, and it makes me nostalgic lmao
Although Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is very hard to top for the next Mario Kart game because of the booster course pass, it has been over 10 years since the original Mario Kart 8 was released, so Nintendo has had an insane amount of time to make this game. I see two most likely types of games this game is going to be. Either Nintendo has a crazy new gimmick that is going to change kart racing games forever. Or basically a Nintendo kart, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe had multiple tracks that are based on different game franchises and they are all some of the best in the series, if they make entire games about tracks and characters from other Nintendo franchises then the track design can be on another level. Here are two ideas I have for a nintendo kart, instead of a normal rainbow road you can make a rainbow road above kirby's planet popstar and other kirby planets, and instead of bowser's castle you can make ganon's castle, those are just simple ideas, Nintendo can probably do a lot more with a nintendo kart
I’d probably be basic and say Mario Kart is my favorite just because it’s easy to pick up, play, and has so many tracks and characters in 8 Deluxe. That said, I put a ton of time into Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled. So I can say from experience that I can totally see why that would be the winner in your book, it’s an exceptional game. Would not be opposed to diving back in, too. Just saying.
Nahhh honestly MK8 clearly has the best OST CTR’s songs are just… alright ig and a lot of them sound the same anyways because almost all of them use very similar instruments
the drifting in CTRNF is way too confusing for me, I'll stick with MK8D also I feel like the follow 2 should have gotten a mention for mechanics -Team Sonic Racing (both this and CTR has Team in the name, but TSR actually uses that as a mechanic) -the racing mode found in Skylanders SuperChargers & Imaginators (it's a kart racer, with weapons and jumping)
Finally, the comment referencing Skylanders. The Racing specific game for the Wii and 3DS is pretty alright but also underrated at the same time, and I really enjoy SuperChargers as a whole with the expansive vehicle customisation after v1.0.0
I think CTR: Nitro Fueled's Blue Flame Boost was the most busted thing ever to happen to that game and wish it was never introduced because it made for way too many runaway wins in multiplayer, not even the Warp Orb, which is supposed to be a Great Equalizer like Mario Kart's Blue Shell, can do anything against a Drift Spammer with a Blue Flame Boost Or at the very least it should have been better balanced, maybe to have Hard time limit that cannot be extended by drift boosting because that damn thing is so unbalanced For the record i'm all for skilled players earning their win & everything, but NOT WHEN THEY'RE ALREADY HALFWAY THROUGH LAP 2 WHEN THE REST OF THE PACK IS STILL ON LAP 1 Now if I was considering just the single player, and/ or the local split-screen multiplayer then I wouldn't care because neither I nor anyone I play with is good enough to pull all that off, but when you throw the online multiplayer into the mix, then that's when it shows how unbalanced the blue flame boost is in combination with Nitro-Fueled's drift mechanics, in fact I wouldn't be surprised if the the multiplayer scene died because people were so sick of being left in the dust by that goddamn blue flame
if Fzero Gx counts as a kartracer it easily wins all the categories imo. It's also a shame that u only used 8 deluxe when mariokart wii has that extra skill ceiling that you're looking for with all the benefits of being a mariokart game.
It doesn't. GX and the entire F-Zero series as a whole has always been about purely skilled based racing and doesn't need something like items or weapons to slow down other racers.
I agree with this. I like Mario kart but I get bored fast with it and it doesn’t feel as fast as I can be I love sonic all star racing transformed. I can’t wait for sega to bring it to the modern consoles. I don’t wana get a ps3 just to play it. Team sonic racing is just meh. Ctr with all the superior speed at which you can go & frantic matches & short cuts make me love it the most Edit- adders lair in all star racing transformed is the best song int the game
Nascar Kart Racing is a recomendation I gotta give just for the memories of getting my Dad who doesn't care at all about video games to actually want to play this with me in co-op. Also, surprised you didn't mention how Activision shoved in microtransactions into CTR pissing off everyone who was playing that game.
THANK YOU I was thinking this the whole time!!! Like. You want variety? LBP has variety. Visuals? LBP looks great and has a super unique visual style. The skill ceiling is lower, but it's an easy game to pick up, AND YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE YOUR CHARACTER. It's awesome. LBO
I know it’s not technically a kart racer, but the Sonic Riders series needs more love ❤
Agreed
Sonic Riders is better than Sonic All Stars
@@ChuckE.CheesesIllinois Except Free Riders. We don’t talk about Free Riders
@@Jaxxes1991Except the mod that fixes it. The fandom is goated
Shoutout Garfield kart so underrated
Been playing this one recently very fun very cooky

Shout out for giving this game praise.
Crash Team Racing and Diddy Kong Racing truly defined what the upper echelons of what a kart racing game can aspire and ultimately achieve.
Leagues better than any Mario Kart game and the skill level is higher too. They don’t hold your hand or penalize you too much for taking or making shortcuts or staying in the lead for longer than 1 minute.
God what I would give for a Diddy Kong Racing Reboot

I was waiting for when this'd appear, we must spread the good doctors' word.
I was hoping someone mentioned this. Funnest shit I’ve ever played.
PLEASE TALK ABOUT RING RACERS
My favourite Kart Racer is easily Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed chaining boosts together in that gives such a feeling of speed and it’s the perfect difficulty
Totally valid
I’ve been really addicted to Oh Baby Kart lately. It’s worth a look if you haven’t tried it, and it’s worth a second look if you have tried it because it’s constantly being improved. The drifting mechanic is similar to CTR.
You should do a CTR:NF night for followers or something, I’d love to join and play since the servers TRULY aren’t active anymore 🤧
There's a new kart racer coming out in 2025. And I'm sure you're gonna have a blast. It's called THE KARTERS 2 TURBOCHARGED
I completely agree with your opinions on CTR Nitro Fueled. I bought it around launch even though I never played the original CTR.

Poor Diddy Kong Racing. it deserved to be on the list.
Hearing Rye go off about how much they enjoy getting better and faster at games makes me wonder if they’ve tried Neon White yet?
~the ghost of microtranactions comes to these games and dares you to get all the skins, tracks, music and racers~
"I've never seen anyone struggle to learn Mario Kart"
Me: stuck on a wall in 9th place
I would also like to mention in a unique category if there is one that basically how this game separates itself from other kart racers I think sonic team racing its a very fun and good twist on the game as a big part of it is being in a team that can help each other out by giving items and hep boasting your teammates behind you so I ask if you could give this game a review if you ever get a chance at it
The original MNR blew mk out the water, and I'm dying on that hill!
Who remembers the speed racer video game 🔥🔥🔥
Wheres Diddy Kong Racing!
That game was so much better than Mario Kart 64.
That game actually required a certain level of skill to get good at the game, and learning the different mechanics, like earning a much bigger boost from the zippers by letting go of Accelerate, before driving over them, and using the brake button to turn more sharply for those tricky tight bends.

The best is Dr. Robotnik Ring Racers and is the most deep racing game ever and that game you get 151 tracks (even more then Mk8 deluxe).
objectively!!!!😮

I’m glad that Crash got the gold and not Maro
Team Sonic Racing is my favorite and a favorite of my family.
Honestly though if I had to think about it honestly though.

Only one of these games has Jet Set Radio representation.
I've played sonic all stars on my modded 3DS
I've been wanting to play CTR nitro fueled. The CTGP-7 mod pack for Mario Kart 7 includes some of the tracks from there
the drifting in CTRNF is way too confusing for me, I'll stick with MK8D
also I feel like the follow 2 should have gotten a mention for mechanics
-Team Sonic Racing (both this and CTR has Team in the name, but TSR actually uses that as a mechanic)
-the racing mode found in Skylanders SuperChargers & Imaginators (it's a kart racer, with weapons and jumping)

Deluxe and Nitro Fueled I always replay!
I haven't played crash bandicoot nitro in a long time.
Mickey's Speedway USA
CTR for the win lets go!
Personally i like sonic racing all-stars on the DS
I think CTR: Nitro Fueled's Blue Flame Boost was the most busted thing ever to happen to that game and wish it was never introduced because it made for way too many runaway wins in multiplayer, not even the Warp Orb, which is supposed to be a Great Equalizer like Mario Kart's Blue Shell, can do anything against a Drift Spammer with a Blue Flame Boost
Or at the very least it should have been better balanced, maybe to have Hard time limit that cannot be extended by drift boosting because that damn thing is so unbalanced
For the record i'm all for skilled players earning their win & everything, but NOT WHEN THEY'RE ALREADY HALFWAY THROUGH LAP 2 WHEN THE REST OF THE PACK IS STILL ON LAP 1
Now if I was considering just the single player, and/ or the local split-screen multiplayer then I wouldn't care because neither I nor anyone I play with is good enough to pull all that off, but when you throw the online multiplayer into the mix, then that's when it shows how unbalanced the blue flame boost is in combination with Nitro-Fueled's drift mechanics, in fact I wouldn't be surprised if the the multiplayer scene died because people were so sick of being left in the dust by that goddamn blue flame
Kirby Air-Ride mentioned. Video gets a like, LOL

Ctr with all the superior speed at which you can go & frantic matches & short cuts make me love it the most
Edit- adders lair in all star racing transformed is the best song int the game
Yeah, I like burnout series.
bro really just dissed the Mario Kart soundtrack what
Mario Kart clears and its not even close
i like ctr and cool video
Fortnite’s rocket racing is pretty good 😊 it has a drift mechanic.
You know I haven't looked into it, I'll have to check it out!
Five Laps at Freddy's is shaping up to be a great kart racing game. The haters are wrong about the game being bad and they know it
Well no it actually is mario kart specifically mario kart ds thank you
I wished it was mario kart tour but its mario kart 8
I do like playing forza 4

Nascar Kart Racing is a recomendation I gotta give just for the memories of getting my Dad who doesn't care at all about video games to actually want to play this with me in co-op.
Also, surprised you didn't mention how Activision shoved in microtransactions into CTR pissing off everyone who was playing that game.
Obviously it has to be either Five Laps at Freddy's or Karting of Banban
Come on, MK8D is the best by far, both for level design and OST. CTR is good and we can place it after. The rest is shit.
