Super Mario Kart All-Star Collection

Super Mario Kart All-Star Collection is the 25th anniversary title of Mario Kart (based on the US release of the first game) developed by Polar Inc. for the Nintendo Switch and the Portal (as a launch title). The game is different to other games, featuring only retro tracks remade in the style of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It is the only game in the series to have most of its content be strictly DLC. This is due to its content being too large to store on one cartridge. However, the DLC is only paid if you download the game (as the disc works as a Telltale Games episodic pass).
== Gameplay ==
Gameplay is fairly similar to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with gliders, underwater sections and anti-gravity returning along with bikes and ATVs. As well as these, there are now plane sections which is fairly similar to glider sections except they last longer and your loses its wheels whilst in them. One difference in the game is that Mirror Mode is now for 200cc and not 150cc. The game is heavy on DLC, although these are purchased for free if you buy the game on cartridge. All courses are now retro tracks. There are now four weight classes: feather, light, medium and heavy. Mission mode also returns with the catch that they are straight ports from Mario Kart DS but this is made up for with the Double Dash feature which allows two racers in one kart similar to Mario Kart: Double Dash!! (both of these are in the base game). Although a small but very noticeable feature, Lakitu shares his role in game with a new character called Blue Boo with both of them spectating and rescuing people on assigned courses. Smart Steering and Auto Acceleration also return from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe along with a new feature allowing players to freely roam on any course of their choice. This feature is good if players want to practise their skills, find hidden shortcuts or even just venture 'round the course. The game also introduces cut scenes in Grand Prix mode that can be turned on/off in settings. These are conversations about the course between the player's character and their pair in Double Dash mode. These are not available in Multiplayer mode. A track creator was going to be featured but was cut in favour of it being introduced in a later instalment.

== Items ==
Image	Item Name 	Description 	Debut
 	Banana 	When a kart hits a Banana, it will spin out. 	Super Mario Kart (as Banana Peel)
 	Triple Bananas 	Same as the banana item, but you get three of them. 	Mario Kart 64 (as Banana Bunch)
 	Green Shell 	The Green Shell will send an enemy into a spin if they are hit. Green Shells can bounce off barriers. Throwing it backwards will cause it to remain stationary. 	Super Mario Kart
 	Triple Green Shell 	Same as the green shell item, but you get three of them 	Mario Kart 64
 	Red Shell 	The Red Shell acts similarly to a Green Shell, but homes in on the target instead. It will not bounce off walls, however. 	Super Mario Kart
 	Triple Red Shell 	Same as the red shell item, but you get three of them. 	Mario Kart 64
 	Mushroom 	The Mushroom is a more common item and grants the user a slight boost. It can either be used to slam an opponent or drive over hazards such as sand and grass without losing speed. 	Super Mario Kart
 	Triple Mushroms 	Same as the mushroom item, but you get three of them and other players can steal you boosts. 	Mario Kart 64
 	Spiny Shell 	Acts like a red shell, but solely attacks the person in first place. If it bumps into (and hits) anyone on its way, it will not break. 	Mario Kart 64
 	Boo 	The Boo turns the user transparent for a few seconds and steals an opponent's item. 	Super Mario Kart (as Ghost)
 	Star 	The Star provides two benefits, allowing the user to receive a small speed boost and to become invulnerable to everything. Contact with other racers will cause them to spin out. 	Super Mario Kart
 	The Coin adds two coins to the total count.	Super Mario Kart 	
 	Lightning Bolt 	The Lightning Bolt shrinks all the racers except for the user, making them slower and vulnerable to being squashed by normal sized racers. The effect will wear off after a brief period of time.	Super Mario Kart (as Lightning)
 	Fireball 	Similar to a Banana Peel, but oscillates from left to right on the spot, making them harder to pass safely. 	Super Mario Kart
 	Egg 	Exactly the same as a banana. 	Super Mario Kart
 	Poison Mushroom 	A stationary item. If one is run into, the victim shrinks as if hit by a Lightning Bolt. The racer who is already shrunk and runs into it returns to normal size. 	
 	Golden Mushroom 	Similar to a triple Mushroom, except you get infinite mushrooms for about five seconds. 	Mario Kart 64 (called Super Mushroom and has a slightly different effect).
