| 0:00.0 | Welcome to a very special episode of the Nintendo Powercast. |
| 0:19.4 | I'm your host, N64, Josh. |
| 0:21.4 | And we're going to be talking all about Mario Kart Double Dash today because it is the 20th |
| 0:27.3 | anniversary since it was released. |
| 0:30.2 | Well, at least here in the States, it turned 20 this last week. |
| 0:33.6 | And I thought it would be fun to kind of jump in and discuss this game. And I spent about an hour just trying to unlock more of the 150cc gold trophies. And game not as easy as, not as easy as Mario Card 8 for me. I can tell you that much, just trying to get used to the controls and the way it plays. But I thought it'd be fun just to kind |
| 0:57.5 | of discuss this game. Maybe you guys, if you've got some memories you can share in the |
| 1:02.0 | comment section, either here on YouTube or on Spotify, wherever you're listening. And of course, |
| 1:08.9 | remember those enter you to win a e-shop gift card |
| 1:12.7 | just by leaving a comment either on Spotify or on or on YouTube. So let's jump into this thing here. |
| 1:21.2 | We're going to look at a little bit of the of the history and just kind of like this game went |
| 1:26.7 | a completely different direction than what we |
| 1:29.5 | were used to with the with with with the Mario card series all of a sudden you're racing |
| 1:35.3 | with two characters instead of just the one now I'm just going to talk my personal experience |
| 1:41.1 | first and foremost and I put out a tweet asking like, you know, what, |
| 1:44.2 | what are some of your guys's favorite memories and stuff? And, and included in that tweet was |
| 1:48.0 | mine. And it, it actually happened like long after the game had released. I was, uh, I was at the |
| 1:55.8 | destiny to reveal that, that Bungie had invited me to. And, uh, I met Fran Mir now fran used to work at ig n and he was the one that reviewed this game and he gave it a 7.9 and i remember at that time that ign reviews for me like they they some weight. And so when I went into this game, |
| 2:19.9 | I was like, huh, this is not the Mario Kart I was expecting after Mario Kart 64 and even |
| 2:30.5 | Super Circuit. So for me, I didn't love the double carts. At the time, I think because of |
| 2:39.2 | the review, and if you're looking at the video right now, or maybe you're just, maybe you're listening, |
| 2:44.8 | you can't see it. But, but Mario's cart is, is kind of like a, like a modified, like four-wheeler kind of thing and I never loved it. |
