There should be enough racing games with those options that I don't have to settle for Mario Kart, lol.
Dunno why you'd call it settling, Mario Kart really is one of the best multiplayer games out there.
There are plenty of other racers that have those options but few execute on the level of MK8
I'd call it settling because I'm not really a fan of Mario Kart. Very few other racing games have local multiplayer of any kind, and most of the ones that do and speak to me are 20+ years old. At least I have Trail Out, but I'd really appreciate more options. That game Aero GPX might finally be the F-Zero replacement I've been waiting for.
I agree with you. It's been a while since I played a Mario Kart though. I got turned off by the "wiggle while drifting to get a boost" mechanic in Mario Kart DS (which I know is a fairly old game at this point). Even when I got good at it, it still felt really tedious to do all the time. But idk, maybe newer versions have a different mechanic now?
Heh, that mechanic was the closest I ever got to enjoying a Mario Kart, and it seems like even that was ripped off of Crash Team Racing. That mechanic is still there, as far as I know, but so are blue shells and such.
