"Mario Kart advance will it be good?"

Mario Kart Advance will be a very special game for the Game Boy Advance.
The larger capabilities of the GBA let’s Nintendo enhance the old Mario Kart from the SNES, it may be similar to the SNES version but this plays a lot better than that.
The game is smoother thanks to the capabilities of the GBA the characters are able to zoom in and out with better fluidity in the game than the SNES version.
Overall the graphics will take a step up from the old Mario kart, the games backgrounds look far more superior and clearer than the old blurry textures used before hand. Hopefully Nintendo can keep that ‘one more go’ game play in the game that Mario Kart, and Mario Kart 64 had. Of course what you would look forward to is the 4 player link up, that the SNES version could not taken the speed of the game luckily for this time 4 screen’s will be used for this than one so lag and slowdown will be hopefully taken out of the game. But with the GBA it should be capable of better things than the SNES.
The game will reportedly be one of the first GBA titles to use the system's "download" link play, in which only one cartridge is needed to play against three other systems. So there's no need for people to bring their cartridges along just to play with their mates. This feature is subject to change, but it'll be an excellent addition that will encourage the use and inclusion of link cable in software. The game will also support the Mobile Adapter GB, the mobile phone plug-in for online support the features have yet to be announced for this device, and so we'll just have to sit tight a little while longer.
And yes battle mode is featured and let’s hope that’s bigger and better! If Nintendo has spent enough time on the game we have another classic Mario Game to the already classic Series.

Good then.

so you did! sorry..

Mario Kart Adv will have 4 player battle mode! Read what i said before saying it.

er-no i said all that before :D

I say we ban the GBA, Our school children will be maoning at the teachers for going around in 4's with a multi-link, out parents will be blaming the children because they won't do their homework. Gordon Brown will tell us of the big slump the country has gone into, of course it will have to be Mr. Brown because Tony Blair will be battling it our with her majesty over a game of Mario Kart,. with the Ministry of Defence and Richard Branson!

You think the 'foot and mouth' disease is bad! All the rabbits and cats will die aswell because there will be big debates and arguements about who goes out to feed them. The only way people will settle court cases is by having multi-player show downs through GBA Wars, the GBA will be the 'answer to everyones problems' and all of a sudden everyone will be voting for the GBA Party, stuff Labour!

There will be an terrible out-break of 'GBA neck syndrome', with people all over the UK having painful necks! The GBA will cause nothing but trouble and these enevitable turn of events are just a glimpse of what is to come....And I love it...bwrahahahaha

The Game

This game will be so good that Gameboy Advance will be banned from offices and schools throughout the world (and beyond).

A new motoring offence will be called Driving Uselessly while Contolling Kart (DUCK) and people caught driving badly while playing Mario Kart will have to surrender their GBA to the Police and buy them new batteries.

Bananas will suddenly be in short supply and as MK madness sweeps the world the only item selling more than GBA will be Tony's patent Banana Launcher. That's until Microsoft steal the design and licence it as an open platform to Disney.

What will be the other consequences?. Plaaace yoooour predictions heeeeere please!

thats a bit too long! (Nelson: HAHA)

well all I can say it that I am going to play the game within the next three weeks, and I am beginning to get a little excited and...

(er-no goes for toilet break) ((Nelson: HAHA))

Whatever peoples opinions good ro bad they don't matter, I am kind of sick of people buying and not buying games because of what people 5000 miles away say they should do! I was told to buy Perfect Dark and although the game is good it wouldn't be my first choice!

Look at games for yourselves, but anyway, back to the topic, ah yes...Mario Kart ADV should be a great game, I think the if they were going to have such detailed games the screen HAD to be BIGGER and thank God that is what we have seen! Or at least we will see!

So Nintendo seem to on a winner with this one but like the rest of Europe we will have to wait until the game is released to find out or more to the point to bereassured!

The Game

Short Enough!?

well, maybe putting the graphics aside, I would change the chacters, not remove any of them but definetely have Wario and Baby Mario as two extras. Also they should have a four player linkup battle mode, with the original courses and some extra items would be fun.
ONE THING THEY SHOULD NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO CHANGE is the courses, they were the best and any thing extra in them would probably ruin there greatness.
Mario Kart on the SNES is a game that will be never made again, Nintendo are trying to borrow the old ideas and make a new improved version. with better graphics.

Yeah maybe but what would you change from the MArio kart on the SNES, except the graphics.
