Obviously the main attraction to Mario Kart is the racing but what about battle mode?


I never played battle mode on MK64 cause I never knew it existed really. On MK:DD I'd sparingly play it with friends or relatives. But MKDS I played a ton of battle mode in that game, I loved it. I played it so much I got too good for the hard computers and one virtually every single time. :p But I pretty much never play MKWii's battle mode cause it's lame.
 
Mario Kart 64: Used to play a few times with my friends or my sister and my father.

Mario Kart Double Dash!!: Almost never played it, only played to test things out.

Mario Kart DS: Fine, but still forced you to be in teams, but the tracks were fair. Played whenever I felt like it.

Mario Kart Wii: Okay, this is god-awful like we say it is, but I did spend some adequate time playing this kind.
 
Super Mario Kart: This was OK, a bit bland though. Course like Battle Course 4 had too many walls that protected you against shells.
Mario Kart 64: Probably one of the best battle modes, it didn't end so quickly like Double Dash did. :p
Mario Kart Super Circuit: Same as Super Mario Kart except without the wall problem.
Mario Kart Double Dash: Probably the worse for me, simply cuz it ended so quickly. Shine Runners and Bob-Omb Blasters (or whatever) was fine though.
Mario Kart DS: Hmmmm, this one was alright. I like how you can get balloons back and it won't end like in one minute.
Mario Kart Wii: Probably the biggest and best improvement from the others (Sorry guys lol) I really liked the Balloon Battle here, even though it's mainly about getting points now, I thought it was great and wonderfully made.
 
I never played MK64, Super Circuit or Super Mario Kart. I played MKDD's very often, especially Bob-omb Blast. I'd always convince my family to play on Luigi's Mansion, since I just bomb them from the roof :p Mario Kart DS I played quite a bit. I had a balloon battle last for like over 15 minutes once :p I only play the battle on Mario Kart Wii sometimes since it wasn't very good.
 
SMK:  Battle mode was pretty tough.  I liked the music, though.  I played it some with my brother when I was younger though..  Also, I like how the balloons (balls?) are on the ground instead of floating the head.  Haha.

N64:  Music was pretty good.  Battle stages were fun, too.  Played some battles with my friends when I was younger.  Characters had their own colored balloons..  (Luigi was blue, Yoshi was green, Peach was pink..  etc.)

GCN:  Interesting, but gets boring overtime.  Some of the stages were okay.  Played a few times with my brother.  Also, some of the modes were cool.  My favorite is the bomb-omb blast because you can spam bombs..  in which was awesome.

Wii:  Well, I hate the fact that you are forced into teams.  That's the worst idea yet.  Some of the stages were okay.  I didn't really like the Coin Collector idea.  At least you can battle with the computers for the fun of it or train.  You had to choose either standard kart or standard bike.  Battle mode would have been a lot better if you can play free-for-all.  Another good thing is that you can play online..  but whenever I play, I usually encounter hackers.  <_<

I didn't review DS or GBA because I never played them.
