Shrek actually had 2 kart racers: Shrek Swamp Kart Speedway on the GBA, and Shrek Smash and Crash Racing on the 6th Gen Consoles

Did you know that little big planet kart has a creepy unused track

Love this style of video from you a ton, keep up the great work!

When they world need him he came back

Sweet seeing Modnation Racers and Little Big Planet Karting getting acknowledged in 2024! Love both games! Unfortunate that Sony shut down their servers!

if that was real money you ripped up, you better hope the government doesn't find out because ripping up money is actually illegal

0:45 Yeeeeeeessssssssss Mickey The Speedway Let's Gooooooo!!!!!

I actually feel bad for mario in the thumbnail he actually looks scared that he his going to fall off a cliff but awesome video.

Nah bro I still will play all the Mario Kart clones because I love Mario Kart so much.

7:54 *Laughs in Yoshi's Story*

I know you're not familiar with the Ben 10 franchise, Aaron, but you should check out Ben 10 Galactic Racing.

They’re not Mario Kart Clones, they’re other Kart Racers. Kart Racers’ a genre that Mario Kart’s apart of.

When there’s no mention of Shrek Smash n Crash Racing

Actually Disney speedstorm (which I believe you covered last video) has recently done a massive overhaul update effectively removing season locks on content and mark it far less monetisation focused

1:11 you call THAT a racing game?

12:24 RIP Solid Snake and the entire Belmont family though. It does have "Cyborg Ninja" who is literally just Gray Fox (Olga's helmet was different and her armor had a slightly different color scheme and MGS4 didn't exist yet and even if it did, Raiden's armor was completely different) but why didn't they just call him that and why him instead of Snake? Sus AF.

I feel like that some companies just copy some Nintendo games like Mario Kart and Smash bros way too much. But then again Nintendo doesn’t own this kind of format

4:18 Bro doesn't know about Ludwig and Huey being broken

Don't sleep on the GBC Mickey racing games. They may not look like much, but they're basically Diddy Kong Racing but 8-bit. They have a hub-world and everything. Such an underrated gem on the console.

I didn't know there was a Mickey mouse racing game on the 64.

Rip LBP karting, i loved that pirate ship map.

I know bomberman fantasy race isn't exactly the kind of game that's considered a "kart" game, especially since bomberman does have kart games, it's more in line with Sonic R where you control a footrunning character able to perform jumps, wall kicks and such. But so many racing games nowadays completely have abandoned giving more complex controls other than ways to drift and boost. funny that Sonic fangames like Sonic Robo Blast are about the only ones in recent memory.

This was pure clickbait, because not all of these Mario Kart clones are bad! And you expect us to NEVER play any of them based on the video's title? Shame on you!

If it has a car in it, it's a clone apparently

just wait until you have to play smurfs kart you will be in for a ride

i'm surprised you've never covered SRB2Kart or it's sequel Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers Sure, they're fangames, not official projects, but they're still damn good. Ring Racers does have a bit of a learning curve, but if you can get past that, it's honestly among my all time favorite games.

I sure hope the thumbnail is teasing one of my favorite and most nostalgic games, Shrek Swamp Kart Speedway for GBA.

Disney had another Kart racer, I think called: Disney world quest: Magical racing tour. Really good, deserves a modern update

17:05 ok why hasn’t their been a newer game with this concept

There were also a series called "Myth Makers" that was available on PS2 & Wii

the griddy world of rocket racing clones

3:39 The red shell in both "Super Mario Kart" and "Mario Kart 64" also had this problem.

..... is that older Disney racing game RC Pro AM reskinned?

Can say that seeing previews on Disney Speedstorm, I can give ya the scoop. Sadly the game is literally a mess right now in their Ranked Multiplayer Mode: 1. Since they changed the Upgrade System to Upgrade Coins, sadly it is hard to get em and the shards to star up the characters are now used to upgrade your racer too. 2. They are making missions more difficult to accomplish as even new players or f2p players would struggle. They need specific characters and some needed for a higher level that this upgrade coin system hinders it. 3. Due to this change, more people who had many upgrade materials that are converted to upgrade coins now have many lvl 50 maxed racers. Not even those who barely had experience or progress can get higher at all when they are in the way. 4. Ranked puts even high lvl racers against low lvl racers that its simply not fair anymore. No chance to get first or progress either. 5. They also took away the ability to race with other racers in local or private lobby for free if you haven't unlocked them anymore. 6. Collecting their shards can be proven difficult now. 7. Golden Pass splits into 2 and now you are forced to pay 10 bucks for the golden pass each part which is 20 bucks now. No longer able to purchase the pass with tokens for f2p to be screwed. 8. Sudden change in crew members now give less stats to improve your racer with percentage instead. 9. Lightweight racers aka low top speed racers cannot compete as much anymore against midweight and heavyweight racers with higher top speed than them. 10. Game is more pay to play now than free to play. Its how the state of the game is that it lost more players to support it

I’d love to see you talk about the good kart racers like Sonic and all stars transformed and mod nation racers!

So based off the title, you _are_ telling us to play the Sonic racing games...?

18:10 I thought the exploit was specific to the LBP main series?

What exactly would you say are the elements that separate a Mario Kart clone from other 3D racing games? Some of the commonly cited clones don't even use go-karts.

RC pro am was a kart racer that Rare made on the NES.

Every masterpiece has a cheap copy.

11:35 This should just be a lesson. Don't buy into the live service model, especially one as predatory as the chocobo one was.

What, no Garfield Kart of Hello Kitty Cruisers?

The sonic racing games is its own little series. Even then they have some differences that separate them from Mario kart. Transformed had vehicles you could fly in the air (not glide) and let you motorboat above water instead of driving underwater. Sounds like semantics but these designs could drastically change up the map as the laps progressed. Destroying sections of the track in order to use the different modes. The boat felt different from an underwater kart as well, having you drive while tackling the waves from the water and currents that could pull you in. In team sonic racing there is a you guessed it team mechanic that lets you do some techniques to quickly progress through the track. There are also character types that impact how you go through the track. This game is alright but can be a great time with friends. Item wise these games work exactly like Mario kart, I’m not going to sugar coat it. There are some exceptions but it’s a Mario kart item with a twist.

Pac Man World Rally was one i thought you would feature.

no Garfield kart mentioned wow...lol

Wait, let me get this straight. Square Made a Spin off Game on the Playstation, featuring characters from games that helped them get notariaty. And they made it Nintendo exclusive?

I was actually expecting Skunny Kart, because it's like one of the first PC kart racers that I can think of that copies the format.

Diddy Kong Racing and Crash Team Racing (especially the remake) are top tier kart racers, of course MK really started it but I prefer those two games way more than any MK game, those really refined and expanded on the genre.

8:04 "Waiting for a lawsuit to be announced any day now". Yoshi's Story : 1997

3:44 srb2kart/ring racers people will get this

By the way, that GBC Disney racing game is actually really good. At the very least it has a great soundtrack.

Speedstorm Is Pretty Fun

I just don't get why people never wanna call Mortal Kombat and Tekken clones of Street Fighter, but when it comes to kart racing games, they're always calling them a Mario Kart clone. It's a double standard. The ironic thing is, Mario Kart didn't really kick-start the kart racing genre. Power Drift came out before it. Mario Kart definitely popularized the genre, but people are always acting as if it were the originator. Tbh, it just feels like gamers hate anything that isn't popular. If you aren't playing Mario, Zelda, Kirby, Fall Guys, Fortnite, Among Us, Super Smash Bros, NBA2K, Madden, WWE, Final Fantasy, Pokemon, GTA, Mario Party, and Mario Kart then the games you are playing just suck. Anytime Nintendo posts a trailer to a new season of Disney Speedstorm, Mario Kart stans are all under the comment section just bashing the game for simply just existing. PlayStation fans do the same to KartRider: Drift. Smash Bros fans also act like weirdos towards Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl and MultiVersus. Are we all supposed to just be into games that are popular ? I thought the whole point of being a gamer was to you know PLAY GAMES.

Diddy Kong Racing 2 when?

If you cover this topic again, don't forget Skylanders Superchargers Racing for the Wii and 3DS

You can't stop me mom, I do what I want!

All I can say is, with the closing of the servers for LittleBigPlanet 3 on PS4, rest in peace to the LittleBigPlanet series.

I actually have Mickey Mouse Speedway USA. I also have Chocobo GP.

How could you talk about Mario Kart clones and not mention the masterpiece that is M&M’s Kart Racing?

It's kinda crazy how many Kart racers just try to do their own thing to be different and end up playing like ass because of that same reason.

garfield cart prevails

I'm just left thinking, ‘He didn’t even talk about Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’.

Now review Robotnik' Ring Racers

Idk if it is on purpose but the title reminds me of Caddicarus.

Will one day talk about Digimon kart?

you want a real super circuit ripoff? shrek

Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled is the better Mario Kart dince it depends on skill not luck.

When is a Kart racer not a Matio kart clone?

There is also a ps1 game "woody woodpecker racing" and it is as bad as it looks just knowing that fact

the gatcha controversy wasn’t the only one Chocobo GP faced at the time one of the VAs is a chomo

Gensou Skydrift is a pretty good one. Cant really call a game where you use anime girls as hoverboards a "kart racer" though can i?

I think im the only one that actually love ChocoboGP.

What's a "Jag-wire"?

Hey, that new title doesn’t fit with some of the stuff in the video! Why did you change it?

Wouldn't be surprised if Sonic clone race games get their video Not Sega racing games, KART racing games that feature Sonic Edit: Racing games starring Sonic

PLEASE tell me those were fake $100s you tore up.

Have you played el chavo kart?

I ain’t never been here this early

If anything, at least the Dreamworks racing game did more justice to Megamind than his new movie and show did 😂

love chocobo racing, still playing it, sadly the sequel sucks

Crash team racing was similar to Mario kart

Aaronitmar Try Not to Make a Video About Smash or Mario Challenge (Literally Impossible)

There’s another DreamWorks kart racer, DreamWorks Super Star Kartz. Review that next time.

But the sonic racing games are actually good. (Ok maybe not the newest one but the all star ones are peak)

Why does no one talk about Digimon Racing?

A good Mario Kart clone, is Lego 2K Drive.

I Have The Greatest Video Idea Ever!!😁 Every Costume References In Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom 3!😎

Super greedy!

Mario kart clones and smash Bros clones are not that great

Yeah, not gonna bother watching the rest after that poor display of Mickey's Speedway Usa and the others.

Paw Patrol Grand Prix game is a complete poor ripoff, poor UI, poor planning and costs the same as Mario Kart 8.

Just some constructive criticism: If the title says to never play the games within the video…why start it with 3 different games that you said were good?

Please tell me that was fake money you ripped up

I actually like Nickelodeon Kart Racers, please forgive me.

Where’s SEGA

South Park kart

Ok but what if I used Aaron100 for 100% off

Also DON'T PLAY CRASH NITRO KART IT'S ACTUALLY GOOD AND COOL!
