Great!
I'm a fan of the Mario Kart series, ia have three Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart DS, and Mario Kart64(4 the wii). I used to have Double Dash but I didn't like it. This is a great Mario kart game, second only to Mario Kart Wii!

5 and up is ppppppperfect!
This is a perfect mix of a mario game and a racing game. Like both, then this the perfect game for you, and me. I rarely play racing games but I love mario games so that's why I got it.

Great For The Begining.
I loved this game a few years ago but once you get to a certain point in the game it is really boring because the computer players are way too easy to beat, and there are a limited amount of characters. However, the first month or so you have the game it is a blast, and beating the different courses is so fun!

Bowser Themes
The only bad or offending content is some scary moments with Bowser or Bowser themes. Other than that, the game isn't inappropriate in any way.

Best Mario Game on DS yet!
The Mario Kart series is very popular. Cartoonish violence. The steering is hard but the rest is awesome! Lots of Retro levels from older Mario Karts. If you like racing games, play it.

tips
Here are some tips on the game. First how to get dry bones. Beat the retro grand prix on 50cc. R.O.B. Defeat special cup on 150cc. Wiggler. Go to missions and defeat them all with 3 stars a new world will be unlocked where wiggler waits.

Great game!
This is a fun game that is really easy to play, but maneuvering around the track, especially rainbow road, might be difficult for younger kids. It has an awesome online ability, which you can face others in races. However, you will probably have to learn a method that almost every experienced player uses, a thing called "Snaking." It is a power boost that gives you speed while doing power slides continuously in the way a snake would slither. Also there are a few that will use action replay to win, by using unlimited blue shells or stars or something. Online might be tough for younger or inexperienced players, but it is an awesome game for all ages!

Very Fun!
I loved it when I first got it, but it can get kind of old. Safety rely is not a problem. The main point of the game is winning grand Prix's, and getting charters and places. In races though, it is some what violent. You can throw turtle shells at the racers and shock them with lightning ( the lightning just shrinks them) and some other stuff.
