Super Mario Kart is the first video game in the Mario Kart series, released in 1992 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Players race go-karts as one of eight characters from the Super Mario series. It features advanced graphics for the time thanks to its use of Mode 7 texture mapping. Super Mario Kart is the third best-selling game on the SNES, with eight million copies sold. [1]
Gameplay
Super Mario Kart can be played by one or two players. All gameplay uses a horizontal split screen view. In single player mode, the top displays the course, while the bottom screen can either display a rear-view mirror perspective, or an overhead view of the whole track, displaying where all the racers are currently. In multiplayer, the bottom screen is assigned to the second player's view.
Reception
Upon release in North America, the game sold well and eventually became a Player's Choice Million Seller title, and went on to sell eight million copies, which makes it the third best selling game on the SNES. In 2001, Game Informer ranked Super Mario Kart 35th in its list of "Top 100 Games of All Time."[2] Super Mario Kart placed 15th on IGN's Top 100 Games.
