New Mario Kart Double Dash Footage

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the it'sa-me-wario dept.

StrikerObi writes "Planet GameCube has posted the first ever footage of Mario Kart Double Dash for the GameCube. It was recorded earlier off of the CNN Headline News television network. The game now has 2 characters riding on each kart, with one driving and the other using weapons. There is also some footage of the new F-Zero GX game in the reel." There's also a torrent file available from the fine folks at GameTab.

    Both of you are kind of right (Note: I've played more MK64 than I should have).

    Bowser, Wario, and DK have the fastest top end. The problem is that they take a long time to get up there.

    Toad, Peach, and Yoshi have a slower top end, but they get up to it much much faster.

    Discounting powerslides for the moment, the heavy guys also lost a decent bit of speed in the curves. This is where the light guys really shine. Powerslides equalize things somewhat. Usually in a race, the little guy will still come out on top, but it's a narrower victory.

    Now, if we're talking battle mode, then I break out the Wario, and you're all fried. ;-)
