    Mario Kart simply for the entertainment the split screen mode brings.

    Not to take anything away from F-Zero. The sense of speed was amazing for a console game. I dare say no console racing game at the time provided the thrills it did.

    Today I’d rather play F-Zero because its controls are more responsive, but there’s more to do in Super Mario Kart.

    I’d personally vote MK, especially on SNES, but agree with everyone else - they’re very different types of racing games.

    F-Zero, despite the outdated hardware I still find it fun. Controls aren’t bad and I like most tracks. Super Mario Kart on the other hand feels outdated in terms of controls and track design.

      F-Zero GX is still one of my favorite racing games. The cross-progression with the arcade version, F-Zero AX, was also really cool, though it was nearly impossible trying to find one of those machines. I found one in Vegas a long time ago and it was a blast. Probably not worth the $5 per credit, though, but still very fun.

      I really wish Nintendo would revisit the series again. Or at the very least, let another studio make one. It’s been too long.

        Nintendo: We won’t make a new game, until there’s new innovation, and new avenues of creativity to explore.

        Also Nintendo: It’s Mario Party 15, ya’ll!!!

          Who do they think they are, Valve?

          (And to be clear, it isn’t okay for Valve to have that attitude, either. I want my Half-Life story conclusion, damn it!)

    Both. They may be both racer but that’s the only similarity.

    I really wish for a successor to F-Zero GX/AX. Perhaps on the Switch 2?

    It just depends on which type of racing game you are in the mood for. Mario Kart is well, Mario Kart. F-Zero always felt more like the older, arcade style racer in the vein of Out Run.
