I identify with Waluigi cuz his long legs barely fucking fit in most cars

Warrio all day

Luigi because the L stands for β€œwinner”

[–] DBT@artemis.camp 3 points 1 year ago

I’ve always used DK because his weight knocks others out of the way. Slow acceleration isn’t an issue if you’re good at drifting.

Toad on a motorcycle is my go-to! He’s very light and agile, but can be pushed around too easily

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Either Toad or Yoshi.

Peach for sure, sometimes DK if I'm feeling rambunctious

cat peach

or peach if its not mario kart 8

[–] gerryflap@feddit.nl 2 points 1 year ago

I've only played Mario Kart on the DS, but I played it a ton. I almost always picked Dry Bones. Something about him in the generic cart just felt right in terms of handling etc.

[–] HowlsSophie@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Wario. His butt makes me laugh, especially on a motorcycle.

[–] e1219@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago
[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Luigi or Dry Bowser. Or Dry Bones on DS.

I would say Princess Peach or Birdo.

Daisy, Baby Daisy for 200cc

[–] jimmy@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Waluigi if available, otherwise yoshi.

[–] rikonium@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Toad on the 64, I like the Koopas on DD, I'm blanking on 8 right now - I like having the quick acceleration of lighter characters to compensate for my screwups!

[–] Sebastrion@lemmy.fmhy.net 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mario... Yes i'm that one guy that plays Mario and i'm proud of it!

[–] Radioactrev@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago
