Very good racing game. Only second to Mario Kart. The exploration and collection is fun in this game.

I just didn't have much enjoyment with this game. I just like the N64 version so much better.

This game was pretty fun, but it sort of dragged on and on. i mean, you do the same thing over, and over, and over.

coming off of the N64 game, well, its the same game. just with wi-fi and improved graphics. the N64 versions gameplay is harder to get use to making the DS version better. get if you like racing and multiplayer.

It was pretty fun and so is the wi-fi. I also have this game for nintendo 64 and i beat it for N64 but not ds. altogether a good game.

Fun to change from car to plane to hovercart but quite a childish version of mario kart DS

1st of all RARE made it so it should be good right? Yes and no.

DKR was (I hate to say it) better than SMK 4 SNES. DKR had Cars, Hovercrafts, Planes and a adventure mode. People were also introduced to Banjo, Conker and Tiptup, all of which are famous RARE characters.

The disappearance of Dixie, DK and Kiddy really distracted me from it but if it comes on VC its well worth getting.

DKRDS is a little worse. Dixie and Tiny Kong came in but both had same stats. Basically Banjo and Conker got replaced by the Kong Sisters. Apart from that everything is the same........apart from the *$%@ing Balloon challenge minigame. It distracted me 2 this game more than DK still not playable!!!

Overall: This game is really fun (at times) and with Wi-Fi it seems 2 match Mario Kart DS but if your looking 4 another online racing game.... just wait 4 Mario Kart Wii.

It's a good game, but it's no Mario Kart! The driving is a little unstable and it doesn't seem to challenge you enough, but if you like Wi-Fi online play then it'll do just fine!
