''Mario Kart DS'' was released first in North America, on November 14, 2005, and is the only mainline ''Mario Kart'' game to be released first in North America. Unlike its predecessor, ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', it retains the traditional single-driver kart racing elements in the ''Mario Kart'' series, where players race against seven competitors in obstacle tracks, using item-based weaponry to gain further advantages over their opponents. It is the first handheld ''Mario Kart'' title to use live-rendered 3D graphics for most of the objects in the game, including characters, vehicles, and racetracks. | ||
''Mario Kart DS'' expands and introduces mechanics that would later become the standard in future titles, most notably the Retro Grand Prix, and the advent of retro courses in general, that revamps tracks from all previous titles from the ''Mario Kart'' series. ''Mario Kart DS'' supports both single pak and multi-pak gameplay via DS Download Play, and is the first ''Super Mario'' title to support [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]], allowing players to race against opponents by using online services across the world. | ''Mario Kart DS'' expands and introduces mechanics that would later become the standard in future titles, most notably the Retro Grand Prix, and the advent of retro courses in general, that revamps tracks from all previous titles from the ''Mario Kart'' series.

In | [[File:Mario in Standard MR MKDS.png|thumb|The kart selection screen in ''Mario Kart DS'' with Mario only.]] | ||
In ''Mario Kart DS'', there are 36 different karts (37 if including the [[Standard SG]]) in total. | |||
Every kart shows six ratings: | |||
*'''Speed:''' How high the top speed of the kart is; how fast the kart can go. [[Bowser]] and [[R.O.B.]] have the fastest karts. | |||
*'''Acceleration:''' The time the kart's top speed is achieved when accelerating (the higher the acceleration, the shorter players wait until they reach their kart's top speed, and the lower it is, the longer they wait). [[Dry Bones|Dry Bones's]] karts can reach their top speed very quickly. | |||
*'''Weight:''' When a vehicle is heavy, the driver can knock a lighter kart. Unlike other stats, the character contributes to this stat, with [[Bowser]] and [[R.O.B.]] being very heavy, and the former of which having the heaviest karts. Characters with a higher weight stat, however, will also apply a penalty to the vehicle's '''Off-Road''' stat (which is hidden to the player). | |||
*'''Handling:''' How tight the kart can normally turn without drifting. [[Dry Bones]] has the best turning curve. | |||
*'''Drift:''' How tight the kart turns while drifting or powersliding. [[Princess Peach|Peach]] has the best drifting curve. | |||
*'''Items:''' The variety of items to use when touching an [[Item Box]] (a high Items rating signifies a higher chance of getting Triple Bananas in first place, Triple Mushrooms in third, fourth, etc). | |||
For all stats, one or more karts will have a rating of one hundred for that stat; for example, the [[Hurricane (kart)|Hurricane]] and [[ROB-BLS]] have speed ratings of one hundred, the [[Dry Bomber]] has both acceleration and handling rates of one hundred, the [[Tyrant]] has a weight rating of one hundred if normally paired with Bowser or R.O.B., the [[Light Tripper]] has a drift rating of one hundred, and each character has an items rating of one hundred for their heavier signature kart, an items rating of sixty-six for their standard kart, and an items rating of thirty-three for their lighter signature kart. | |||
Originally, only two karts are available for each character; a signature kart and a standard kart. As the player wins gold trophies in the 100cc Nitro Grand Prix, the player will unlock a second signature kart for each character. When the player wins a gold trophy in either 150cc [[Special Cup]] or [[Lightning Cup]], four signature karts from different characters will become available, bringing the total to seven karts for each character. After winning gold trophies in all eight cups in Mirror Mode, each character can be paired in any of the 36 karts, making 432 combinations (excluding Shy Guy). CPU drivers will only use their characters' respective karts in races and battles. | |||
The following ratings are from zero to one hundred, directly obtained from the values used by the game to fill the bar in the kart selection screen.<ref>[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15fb4tuhafxs3L0u9dKcKkwcB8oNPSgbXVFr9Dwl_gfM/pubhtml A transcription of the in-game statistics of ''Mario Kart DS'']. The values used to fill the bars in the kart selection screen are found in the ''kartmenuparam'' and ''charmenuparam'' sections.</ref> On a side note, it is worth noting that a kart with a high items rating will usually have lower overall stats than the standard karts. Likewise, karts with a low items rating will usually have higher overall stats than the standard karts. Karts with a high items rating tend to be heavier than the karts with a low items rating. Karts with high items rating also receive more Mushroom boosts in Time Trial mode. The player will get one Mushroom boost if the items rating is low, two if the items rating is average, and three if the items rating is high. The weight class of the character does not play an important role in ''Mario Kart DS'', as the weight does not create kart use restrictions. | |||

===Actual statistics=== | |||
''Mario Kart DS'' features several in-game statistics, some of which are not shown in the kart selection menu.<ref>[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15fb4tuhafxs3L0u9dKcKkwcB8oNPSgbXVFr9Dwl_gfM/pubhtml A transcription of the in-game statistics of ''Mario Kart DS'']. Please note that due to the 16-bit Fixed Point format used by the game, rational numbers are shown as integers that must be divided by 4096.</ref> There are three types of '''Tires''', either Small (''S''), Medium (''M'') or Large (''L''). Just like in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', there is a '''Mini-Turbo''' statistics that corresponds to the length of the Mini-Turbo boost in frames. '''Acceleration''' is determined by three triplets of values, that are presumably related to the acceleration while drifting and the acceleration in all other conditions; there is also a '''deceleration''' value that determines the speed of the next frame as fraction of the current speed when not accelerating (such as when the kart is spinning or the acceleration button is not being held). There are four different types of off-road terrains, and accordingly the karts have four '''off-road''' statistics that are the relative top speed in each type of terrain. | |||

==Courses== | |||
In addition to the sixteen standard courses, ''Mario Kart DS'' is the first game in the series to include the Retro Grand Prix, which has been carried over into every future installment in the series to date. The Retro Grand Prix consists of sixteen courses from past ''Mario Kart'' games updated and compiled into four additional cups. This makes a total of 8 cups and 32 courses. ''Mario Kart DS'' is the only ''Mario Kart'' game where there is no Mario Circuit in the Flower Cup, unlike other ''Mario Kart'' games. | |||
This is the only ''Mario Kart'' game to have three Grand Prix introduction fanfares; one for Figure-8 Circuit, Waluigi Pinball, Mario Circuit, and <small>GCN</small> Luigi Circuit, one for Wario Stadium, and one for the other courses. | |||

===Staff Ghosts=== | |||
Staff Ghosts are Time Trial races that were previously done by a [[Nintendo]] staff member. Every course has its unlockable Staff Ghost that the player can race against if their completion time is close to the Staff Ghost's. The player's record must be no more than 108% of the Staff Ghost's completion time to unlock. | |||

:''For information on the probability of obtaining each item from an Item Box, see [[Mario Kart DS item probability distributions]].'' | |||
As with other ''Mario Kart'' games, a main element of ''Mario Kart DS'' are the pick-up items that allow the racer to take certain advantage over their opponents. An item can be obtained by driving into an [[Item Box]]. This causes the item roulette at the top-left corner of the screen. Racers in higher positions receive less powerful items than racers in lower positions. Some items are unavailable in [[Battle Mode]], and in the mode, similar to normal races, leaders with the most [[Balloon]]s or [[Shine Sprite]]s receive less powerful items. | |||
Each kart has an Items stats ratio, which determines the variety of items that a racer can receive; karts with a higher items ratio are more likely to receive rare items. In subsequent games, this stat was removed, making position the only factor that influences items. When the Item Roulette has chosen a normal item, it makes a simple ''plong'' sound, but if the racer receives a more powerful item, it makes a stronger ''plong'' sound. | |||
==Gallery== | The game introduces two items, [[Bullet Bill]] and [[Blooper]], both of which have since appeared in every subsequent ''Mario Kart'' game. Most of ''Mario Kart DS''{{'}}s item artworks are from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' except for the Fake Item Box, Triple Bananas, Boo, Bullet Bill and Blooper. | ||

==Racing techniques== | |||
===Rocket Start=== | |||
Throughout the entire series, the [[Rocket Start]] allow drivers to give them an extra speed boost and get a head start when a race begins. To use the technique for this installment, players should stay at the starting line and wait for the countdown to hit two. When it does reach that number and when it starts to fade, players should hold the {{button|ds|A}} button to rev up the kart's engine. When ''START'' appears on the race screen, the kart receives a small boost of speed out from the starting line, which is a very helpful move to get first place early on in a race. But, there is a risk to this move. If players hold the button before the two fades, it may make the player's kart falter, and takes a few seconds to get back up to normal speed. If the player holds the {{button|ds|A}} after the second "ding" sound is heard and end, the player can get a boost that is a little faster than the normal small boost. | |||
===Drifting and powersliding=== | |||
[[File:Powersliding1.png|thumb|[[Yoshi]] powersliding at Figure-8 Circuit.]] | |||
In the entire ''Mario Kart'' series, players [[drift]] by holding the {{button|ds|R}} button on a turn. Gray wisps come out of their kart as they turn around corners, possibly tighter or better than normal turning. | |||
The next step up is powersliding. While drifting, players can move the {{button|ds|pad}} Control Pad right and left repeatedly to produce sparks behind the kart. If done correctly, the sparks change their colors and intensity from blue to orange on each alternated move. After the sparks turn orange, the player releases the {{button|ds|R}} button to stop drifting and release a brief [[Mini-Turbo]] after powersliding. This can be used to dodge [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]] if combined with a [[Hop (move)|hop]] only during 100cc and 150cc races. | |||
A player can perform a useful technique known as [[Mini-Turbo#Snaking|snaking]] by performing consecutive mini-turbos in a zigzagged direction, which offers a player the boost they need to get further ahead. This technique is much easier to perform with karts with higher handling, especially with [[Dry Bones]]. | |||
===Slipstreaming=== | |||
Back from ''Mario Kart 64'', [[Slipstream]]ing is simply moving just behind another player. If racers can stay behind their opponent's vehicle for about four seconds, players get a momentary speed boost that is strong enough to pass the other player. | |||
==Multiplayer== | |||
The multiplayer mode allows up to eight players to play either by multi-card (Normal) or by Download Play (Simple) mode. | |||
In Normal mode, players can select any character and kart combination they have unlocked. They can also pick any track that any Game Card has unlocked. | |||
In Simple mode, players can only select courses from the Mushroom Cup and the Shell Cup. Only three of the battle courses are available—[[Nintendo DS (battle course)|Nintendo DS]], [[Tart Top]] and [[Pipe Plaza]]—which are always selected by the game at random. Download Play participants are forced to play as Shy Guy, whose color is selected by the game randomly. This applies even if everyone in the room has the game. | |||
==Options== | |||
{{multiple image|align=right|direction=horizontal|footer_align=center|footer=The emblem maker can be used to make a variety of designs, for example this picture of Mario.|image1=MKDS Mario Emblem Maker.png|alt1=Emblem maker|width1=100|image2=MKDS Mario Custom Emblem.png|alt2=Emblem with Mario|width2=32|caption2=Result}} | |||
In the options menu, the player can select "Settings", "Edit", or "Erase Data". Under "Settings", the sound output can be changed between stereo, headphones, and surround and the "Locate Friend" feature can be togged on or off. "Locate Friend" notifies the player about friends who are seeking opponents while connected to the internet. Under "Edit", the player can change their nickname and make their own emblem for racing throughout the game. They also have an option to make the emblem show up on the kart they are driving. Additionally, this emblem shows up next to a player's name while driving in a multiplayer or Nintendo WFC race. "Erase Data" clears all save data. | |||

This glitch rarely works after the first time it is performed. | ||
=== | ===Mini-Spin turn item glitch=== | ||
To perform this glitch, the player must drive towards an item box in any mode (battle mode is preferred) and sit themselves right in the center where it appears so that they continuously break it open when it appears again. Then, the player should hold either left or right on {{button|ds|Pad}}. When the item box appears again, it will break as usual, and the player will turn a very small amount in the direction pressed. Given time, so long as the player doesn't move, the player can turn all the way round in the direction pressed. | |||
