At some point, it’s had to hit full saturation.

Fuck, even I bought the game, and I’ve been a simcade Forza/Gran Turismo addict for years, haven’t played MK since the N64.
It’s good. Really good.

they should make Mario Kart open world and marry it with Need For Speed => Mario Kart Underground.
that would be the best freaking thing.

Speak for yourself, “gamer”, it’s the latest Mario Kart game, obviously we’re all still playing it. Have you gone back to Double Dash?

The latest one is “Mario Kart Arcade GP VR” how can you call yourself a “gamer” if you don’t have four of these machines in your living room? Smh

I just meant in the sense that it was in the top 20 games in the US. Of course its the most popular mario kart game at the time, but I had no idea people play it enough to generate a concurrent playerbase that large.
With the general lack of content beyond the initial unlocks/DLC and track packs, I wouldn’t think there was that many people playing essentially becomes a time trial game every day. Then again I play wow now so maybe I do understand.

I am. Played pretty hardcore between 2014 - 2016. Didn’t realize it was still going strong.

I just got into it again. I played through 7 and put it away. Begrudgingly bought 8 for the kids and decided it was the same game. Started playing with the wife because she was into it suddenly, just in time for the dlc.

Time got Mario Kart 9.

Tour was 9. Apparently they’re working on “MKX” for switch 2, but it’s all just rumors with zero evidence.
