The unique Mario Kart isn’t the simplest recreation within the collection, particularly when you weren’t raised on its Mode 7-induced peculiarities, however that’s a relative factor. It’s positive, it’s nonetheless straightforward to have a look at, it’s straightforward to play, that’s why they’re nonetheless promoting trillions of copies of Mario Kart video games to at the present time.
However ah, what when you modified a single factor about it. What when you saved all the things else the identical however swapped out the highest display screen’s behind-the-driver viewpoint for…a succession of static digital camera angles, ala the previous Resident Evil video games.
It appears to be like like this, and it appears to be like like hell.
This was made by SNES (and Mario Kart specifically) hacker MrL314, and my absolute favorite factor about it isn’t the jarring horror of the angles themselves, however the truth that zero concessions have been made to point out the place the participant is. You simply gotta keep in mind that you’re (on this case) Mario and hope for the most effective (which explains why the AI drivers are so calm about this whereas in each contemporary lower you’ll be able to see Mario hilariously sliding round like this was an ice observe).
