Mario Kart Series Retrospective (1992-2017) - Scott The Woz Compilation 

can't believe scott's been making videos since 1992. it's a shame he stopped talking about mario kart 6 years ago.

Scott told us to give up on 8 DLC then the universe immediately condemned him to purgatory. Symbolic.

Man i love Scott's Snippets, they're always bite-sized Scott content :)

As a kid I always thought "Automatic" and "Manual" was referring to like gear shift like you'd see in Arcade Racing Games so I always picked Automatic

This came out RIGHT after I finished binging all his Mario Kart videos. I can go for another round.

Can’t wait for the one on the Booster Course Pass where he admits he was wrong 😄

"SCOTT, WAIT!" One of Scott's best japes.

wow I can't believe scott included all of his mario kart videos from 1992 to 2017 in 1 video

Like last time, here are the timestamps for each episode. I'm not obsessed with doing this for every Scott compilation, you are. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="0">0:00</a> Super Mario Kart <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="890">14:50</a> Mario Kart 64 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1792">29:52</a> Mario Kart: Super Circuit <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="2466">41:06</a> Mario Kart: Double Dash!! <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="60">1:00</a>:41 Mario Kart DS <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="73">1:13</a>:06 Mario Kart Wii <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="92">1:32</a>:48 Mario Kart 7 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="113">1:53</a>:17 Mario Kart 8 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="145">2:25</a>:33 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Scotts Snippets; the channel that ranges from 8-second joke clips to a 3 hr retrospective on the Mario Kart franchise.

Ah yes, just a small “snippet” from Scott The Woz

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="96">1:36</a>:25 The transition from “Parasite Queen” to “Honey Queen” is criminally under-appreciated

My three favorite things are Scott the Woz, Mario Kart, and two and a half hour long video compilations, it's like this was made for me!

I can't believe Scott has been making Mario Kart videos since 1992

"Kamek never appeared as a playable character again." Well, this didn't age well.

My boy, this channel is for snippets! This is a 3 hour compilation! I’m not complaining but it’s like I went in for a one night stand and walked out with a marriage

That joke about Kamek never being playable ever again has aged poorly.

During pandemic lockdown and work from home, Scott’s vids were always great to play in the background while I did my job, and the Mario Kart playlist was always one of my faves. The 8DX BCP was brought up twice by him so far and I do await when he can talk more about them or give thoughts on each wave and course. Maybe the Switch 6th and 7th year videos because I don’t think the BCP is enough to warrant its own separate vid and Mario Kart installment.

Fun fact. Mario kart wii had a huge customization regarding the races. I remember using the "crazy item" which basically gave you rare itemas ALL the time. My mother and I used to have such a great time with that chaos xD

That was a nice short little snippet. Thanks, Scott!

Kamek will now be playable in Mario Kart 8 as announced yesterday during the Nintendo Direct! <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1091">18:11</a> 🎉

WHO’S READY FOR SCOTT TO PULL A MARIO 3D WORLD AND TALK ABOUT MARIO KART 8 A THIRD TIME ONCE THE COURSE PASS IS COMPLETE?!?!^^

I think smart steering was added to MK8 deluxe for younger kids, and IMO it's a really smart idea especially if you wanna play with your younger siblings who can't quite video game just yet and still have it be fun for them too.

Are you kidding with the coins?... Dude. If you got hit by a playsr with coins you slow down a bit and lose a couple coins. If you have no coins when a player bumps you, you spin out and have a 1 second restart. Another way to make it Super! Lol

Mario Kart DS was my Mario Kart. It's well balanced, the visuals were great, gameplay was smooth, there were bots to fight against in battle mode, there was a single player mission mode, and Online at the time was thrilling.

Was anyone else genuinely surprised to hear the old outro track at the end of this compilation? It was a pleasant surprise for sure, but I just figured Scott would want that Brand Consistency™️ and would use the new one instead.

When Scott posts on this Channel, it's either a horizontal short in length, or a whole damn movie

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="288">4:48</a> Because this was DK Jr.’s anniversary, and, I think, Miyamoto specifically said he wanted to celebrate.

What a nice, tiny little satisfying piece of content, from 1992 no less! This is great

It's still funny how scott doesn't know you could shake the wii remote to avoid the POW

I think this channel is perfect for compilations like this

Now this is what I’ve been waiting for. I usually play through all the videos in order anyways so it’s nice to have it in a single compilation video

Just what I need, another excuse to binge scott

SCOTT THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF A SNIPPET

These reviews were pure fun. THX for this loooong video, Scott.

Wonderful idea for a compilation! I usually watch Scott the Woz episodes ordered by release in a playlist, but sometimes it’s nice to watch a grouping of interconnected episodes all together at once, and this is a group of episodes perfect to be put together. I think one for all the “Wii” games could be cool too, even throw Wii Chess in there since it IS a “Wii” game.

I just rewatched them all individually wonderful

hey there's no mario kart tour oh it's only updated to 2017

Double Dash with 16 players was, in fact, magical. We had an all-day gaming event with varied tourneys, doing as much with DD using 4 consoles and 4 projectors on 100 in projector screens, and…goddamn! Memories!

I have just the fondest memories of playing Mario Kart DS on local multiplayer on the bus to school nearly every morning until I was in 6th grade

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="3405">56:45</a> woah, don't disrespect my homies Toad and Toadette like that

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="66">1:06</a>:40 "you can probably play the entire game on the bottom screen if you're a complete f*cking maniac" this is exactly how I played it back in the day. Why? Because the bottom screen was unaffected by the Blooper's ink and I could just drive as normal using the bottom screen map. My friends were always annoyed when they got the Blooper playing against me because it was effectively how Scott described the Feather in Super Mario Kart: "Waste it to get a better item next time"

Enjoying this while playing Mega Man Battle Network 2 on the legacy collection. Appreciate the comical and in depth analysis!

I really wish I could have told Scott he can avoid the pow block by shaking the Wiimote at the right time

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1086">18:06</a> my boy finally finally got his chance as a mario kart character

Thank you for giving me an excuse to go back an like every single Mario Kart video you made in order 😌

YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANK YOU SCOTT THESE ARE MY FAVORITE VIDEOS

When I was a kid I thought the "Manual" and "automatic" options in mario kart wii were to use a manual or automatic gearbox.

The only two and a half hour video I will ever need

Scott love the content my man but fun fact donkey Kong Jr. Is the donkey Kong we have now and crankey Kong was the donkey Kong from the original arcade game, so in between super Mario kart and Mario kart 64 he grew up!

"Of course no matter what people kept predicting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe would get DLC every year after its release. Just give up." This is my favorite line, only because we eventually did get DLC, our prayers were heard! xD

Where would we be without drunk driving double dash

“Playing the entire game on the bottom screen like a maniac” 🎉😂

Can't wait for Scott to make a video on the Booster Course Pass, after all the waves are done.

Not gonna lie, I was expecting a compilation of his Mario Kart episodes to be uploaded on his main channel, much like the "Dark Age of Nintendo" series or the "Wiiware Chronicles" series. But hey, uploading it here sounds fine too.

Finally, the perfect Scott video to have on while I'm scrubbing my bathroom!

Man, I still wish Scott started his Mario Kart 64 video with the end of his Super Mario Kart video. He's usually so good with continuity.

Damn I miss double dash. I’d pay for that again.

The local play on DS was incredible at the time. My introduction to the Mario Kart and Super mario came through the DS

Double dash was my favorite. Especially after unlocking the golden car.

Double dash co op mode was crazy. Second player could help get a double dash speed boost and could punch and kick other racers. Such an awesome mode

Turned this video on in the bkround late at night so no one would hear the video on my phone but was genuinely to enthralled in the fun and interesting Mario kart content and was cured of my sins

that's one hell of a "snippet"

I watched the whole thing. Peak RU-vid Content👌🏼

this is perfect lol i watch this series of videos all the time

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1086">18:06</a> - I love the sheer amount of "aging like milk" that statement underwent Nevermind that, if memory serves, Kamek had a logo sitting around in MK8's files, meaning he did in fact get another chance but ultimately blew it there too _But_ he did eventually end up existing in the stupid phone one and further eventually ended up in a real Mario Kart via Deluxe's Booster Pass He's one of the 3 good things I could ever possibly say about that thing, in part because it's just vindicating seeing him in a [again, real] Mario Kart after his history of being cut from 2 different entries

Bruh Scott I’m literally in the middle of my every-so-oftenly rewatch of your Mario kart videos

A super interesting factoid I learned from the gaming historian - there was actually a very specific reason that the CPU racers in Super Mario Kart had exclusive items and abilities. For reasons I don’t fully understand (on account of not being a software engineer with an understanding of how these numerical systems work in programming), the development team couldn’t figure out how to execute the randomized item distribution system for both human racers AND computer players. Or at least, they couldn’t get it working without having to make severe cuts into other aspects of the game. The system we all know and don’t love was basically the most well-balanced compromise they could come up with on the hardware. Proper item distribution for human racers where the items are randomized differently based on one’s placing, and one specific power-up assigned to each computer character. That way it was still well-balanced, but didn’t require near as much computing power.

Mario Kart DS was my jam and I for one loved snaking.

Kamek will finally be playable!

Gonna fall asleep to this lol

Scott. This isn’t a snippet, this is a compilation-

Kamek is confirmed DLC for Mario Kart 8

Mario Kart DS was my very first ever video game and i love it to this day. I fire it up every now and then to play a round or two.

Mission mode on MKDS and the minigames on New Super Mario Bros should have been compulsory additions to every future entry in the series. Waluigi Pinball is what heaven looks like.

"mariokart 8deluxe doesn't have any new tracks" and here we are in 2023 with new tracks still being announced and added in

Glade you spent some time highlighting how hard double dash was, I just found out king boo was in the game because of this video

After listening through this whole thing, I have one major takeaway, the perfect description for all Mario Kart games: It's Mario Kart.

This channel is an awesome idea man

DS is my favorite purely for the memories I had with it. In like 6th and 7th grade me and my friends would all bring our DS’s and play during bus rides and lunch and stuff and it was so much fun. Nowadays I play MK8 Deluxe and I feel like I get to competitive more than just sitting back and laughing at all the wacky happenings

Ironic that with Scott saying to give up on 8 Deluxe DLC for it to just drop the biggest DLC anyone could think of with double the courses and 6 new characters (including Kamek btw). Maybe Nintendo like it's main target is just a kid and you think they'll never do something because of how long the opportunity has been there and they didn't do it until one day they just do it and in a much bigger way than you thought they would initially.

I hope he’s gonna release compilations for all of the 3D Mario games, the Mario Party games, the 2D Mario games, and all of Nintendo’s different consoles (before the Switch, since he already released a 6 hour compilation just focused on the Switch)

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="66">1:06</a>:40 Funnily enough I did learn how to play exclusively on the bottom screen to negate the blooper when I played against my cousins

Kamel is back in Mario Kart again!

New Mario Kart Mode "Bodyguard-Mom": Racing behind your mom (or friend who is not good at) and throw items at every threat around to help her win.

OG Mario kart drifting is very different, but it’s simple; You just start early.

I and the Arcade GP tetralogy can wait The Booster Course Pass got impatient though

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="161">2:41</a>:38 that aged well

I'm surprised you didn't mention how each character in the early games had secret speed stats! Like, Toad was apparently the fastest, but nothing would tell you that in game. Also, in defense of Double Dash's "P1 drives, P2 does items", this was basically designed for younger siblings. When I was little, I wasn't good at the driving part, but because of this mode, I could still have fun with my big bro!

Dude I feel like most people keep forgetting about what else the 2nd player can do behind the driver in MK Double Dash. The 2nd player can help with drifting, and they can also wack other drivers while stealing their items. This is sort of the reason why they could've made a Double Dash successor or sequel for the Switch. The joy cons controls would work perfectly for the 2 player co-op controls. Cause one driver is more focused on driving controls, and rear end player is more focused on items, assisting drifting controls and wacking other drivers to steal their items.

My room mates at uni were obsessed with mario kart 64.. you dont look old enough .. :D

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1185">19:45</a> I get how this can be frustrating for veterans, but as someone who is a casual smash player, it got me to try out tons of characters that i'd never even think of playing otherwise. Ideally, a cheat code to unlock everyone would have been the best move, but I don't think those words have been uttered once in a modern game developer's headquarters in over 15 years...

your old videos bring me so much happy nostalgia that it turns into a liminal feeling depression.

please add chapters

Laughed so hard at the character select for Mario Kart "Everybody's here" like "What the hell, and Yoshi!"

I actually like the idea of SMK to cut half the screen and use the map for the other half. It immediately allows the player to get used to playing like that, rather than forcing 2 people to get used to it at the same time.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="2112">35:12</a> For those who came just for this line

For my last day at high school, the school set up like 12 gamecubes in LAN with projector screens in the gym and we had a huge double dash tournament with the entire graduating class. good times.
