Mario Kart Wii: Power Slide Comparison: Wii vs. Nintendo DS

[MegaJuanelREy]

What the hell care about graphics when played with the NES we care about graphics? Play a game for the graphics is like marrying a nice ass mujers has only

[dark666sephiroth1]

Actually N64 has better graphics than DS

[iansoreta]

@dark666sephiroth1 no, DS is better than N64 version because N64 lacks powerslide boost feature.

[dixiekongfan1]

I have both and I believe every body is entitled to their opinion but I will never understand why some people think the DS one is better

[SilvesterFan258]

You are very very good rider ON Wii and On ds i have mario cart for wii and ds too

[iArushiCreators]

stupid idiot doesn't know how how to get superminiturbo

[MondayNites]

Mario Kart has the best powerslide of all the kart racing games.

[Daconsolegamer]

wii sucks. the ds rocks and the wii sucks cause its so tacky.

[bdboydster]

@Daconsolegamer nahh the ds sucks more cuz it doesnt have as much stuff as wii and the wii has better graphics

[M3MEEEE]

DS, Wii one is hard to turn.

[cobrahawk3]

mkwii rules

[fo0ofo0o77]

WII !! WII !! Wii

[diegoling987]

MKDS is better but i like double dash the better

[kolsitaw]

la cache. sobre dos

[TheDeathblox]

i like mkds better. wii takes longer to get flames

[MrSteelyRevolution4]

DS. Wii one is worse,

[verac1337]

Omg common guys, the ds version of the game is awesome, i play both and seriousl, both owns...

[pakistanrockssss]

mkwii - more humane

[beatlesandcubsfan]

wii

[no1b4iou1]

the thing i like about the powerslides on DS is that you can snake

[HeavyD293]

Why doesn't the Wii example use orange mini-turbos? They're the only things that allow karts to compete with bikes.

[ielectroi]

to mutch yahoooooo wiiheeee yahooo wiiheeeeee

[mjacksonROCKZ]

go wii yea (im a cheerleder)

[zoe6281]

WE ALL KNOW MKDS IS BEST (SARCISAM)

[rbkmpb]

como se hace eso??

a que teclas hay que darle???

gracias, contesten porfavor!!

:)

[ElGhetto01]

dificilk te contesten si echos ablan ingles

[UrbanGamers]

Both look equally crap thanks to YouTube!

[XTremeAccelerator]

MKWii is much better than MKDs because they have better graphics, invented sharp turn drifting for pro players that uses bikes, wheeling, and tricks!!! MKDs sucks badly. MKWii is more epic!!!

[toptean12]

wii is cool wii is new ds is old ds is not as good

[TOXICASSLEAKAGE]

lol TW1 the "hardcore players" are prolly 1% of the population that play this game...

[DyingIsFunny]

snaking, no snaking, i dont care either way, and people are whiny for saying these kind of things are 'casual-made'

just look at this comment below me

[shadowsonic1222]

ya well dude it got 3 put downs loser

[moshimonsters8]

nintendo wii the best

[shadowsonic1222]

i know its the best!

[TW1pwns]

i think they made MKW too casual. they kinda forgot about the hardcore players just like they did in SSBB. They could have done a better job on both games.

[DyingIsFunny]

then is it safe to say that you don't own those games / play those games at all then?

[geminex35]

i have both games!

[cchatiux]

how to select random characters?

Like in Double Dash was L + R

Someone help me please!!!

[IMDADUSTMAN]

It's harder to snake drift in MKW, but I think the person playing MKW just plain sucks at the game.

[Kikichu1]

Ds version sucks

[TdCYami]

DS version pwns Wii version

[yowvapaa]

The comparison video may give the impression that the DS version is faster than the Wii version, but we may have to realize that the Wii version of Delfino Square is larger and more detailed than the original DS version. Delaying the power slides and mini-turbos would deter "snaking," but it prevents leading racers from greatly expanding their leads.

[MysteryRidahz]

fun times

[tristrisX]

wow sweet drifting

[Dimitri0809]

Oh yeah, and if you mention automatic that doesn't count on behalf of my statement because that used for the Motion control and I was refering to Analogue controls/Gamecube controller.

[Dimitri0809]

MKDS is so much better than MKW when you look at the way the karts steer.

If you play the games and compare them very closely you will find out that the steering mechanism/physics used in MKW are not that much differn't to the DS version providing you are using manuel.

The stupid thing Nintendo did to the Wii version was restrict the karts handling to the point where you can't even turn most corners withough drifting.

[federeriscol]

i think the wii sux cus the cnt prb or snake

and it looks quite boring, or is it just me?

[redranker123]

the only reason i dont like ds mk is because in time trials u start wid diffrent mushrooms... for difrent person/kart

[wrbuGGr]

just the karts

[spidermanrocks75]

i have mario kart for DS and by the looks of it, the wii version looks more fun

[GamerUnleashed]

I want a Wii but I don't have one (..yet..:D ) but I have a DS and I played Mario Kart DS on it. It's so easy on it,and everybody says the Wii Mario Kart is really hard

[Ytusha]

True, very true.

[Hannykinsxx]

i dont think mario kart wii is very hard only on certian courses it is quite hard. I think mario kart ds is harder!!!!!!

[Xbox360FreakOfNature]

I don't have a wii, and i've never played mario kart on the wii but judging by all the comments about "not being able to snake on the wii" i think the ds version is slightly better.

[guyanabadboys1]

its becuase the ds grphics is so close to the wi graphics they look the same but the ds is better because of its protable

[GenocideSiren]

...What?

[Lightness1882]

DS graphics are close to Wii graphics??? WTF are you retarded? DS graphics are only slightly better than the N64. Wii's graphics are even better than the Gamecube's.

I would recommend you get to an eye doctor, you obviously needed a better prescription on your glasses.

Go play SSBB and then try to tell me that the graphics look like DS graphics.

[bumtaksi]

@Lightness1882 Shut up you piece of shit, everyone is entitled to give consideration

[Maymona13]

You don't own a DS.... Or a Wii do U?

[Deltamon]

I prefere the wii. It got rid of "snakers" which I always found annoying.

QFT, always hated Snaking in every game.. The car games become way too arcade.

[xBeabx]

Ugh. People like this just make up excuses because they suck at the game. Learn to play, it's not that hard to do, and it's a blast.

[Deltamon]

No. People like this like to play "Car games" as Car games. Not some arcade shit.

Mario kart is already quite arcade by default but.. Snaking just goes over. How do you explain that you go faster if you drift from side to side on a straight than driving properly?

[xBeabx]

Because that's how the game mechanics function. It's fun, if you don't like it, don't play it. You wouldn't be complaining if you could do it, which takes way more skill than "Driving Properly"

[Deltamon]

Geez.. I can do it -_-, it's just a drift done in correct position and correct angle.. That's not the point at all.. I just hate the whole idea of snaking.. Drifting is used for turning.. Not boosting forward. End of story

[empress1125]

DS has worse quality, by far. Wii for the win! Though, DS has some cool high-quality games, too :D

[xXfunnyXx46]

yea the DS is good but its harder to steer so im sayin WII

[U900Real1]

Wii is great!

DS doesn't have the same graphics and btw there are more stuff in the wii Mario kart than in the DS one.

[BrunnerzProductions]

because there is way more space on the disks.

[coltrivers]

i love piazzale delfino!

[kuyacishan]

Wii!

[Ricardo108Ronal]

wii is way better than the ds i personally have a wii and could say that the wii is way better than the sucky ds but when it comes to graphic and awsome shooting games my PS3 is way better than any other console

[Mariorocks77777]

Why does everybody give me a thumb down? You know that the Wii is much better than DS by a mile! DS has stupid sucky graphics that are tacky. I don't care about snaking! Why is that everybody cares about snaking? It doesn't matter! Wii rocks! And who has Wi-Fi that allows 12 players? Wii does! Oh ya! Go Wii!

[UNaruto1990]

You can't say Wii is better than DS, the DS is a handheld gaming device, unlike the Wii.... Basically, they both win, you can play Mario Kart whether you were in your home, or going on a picnic with your family or friends....

[wwe1fanrocky]

ds wins

[XskillzdatzkillzX]

i also wud say DS is better

[residentevilman90]

I think wii  is very better

[Mariorocks77777]

Wii FTW

[orangey456]

I like this video! i like the mario kart one its got better colour!

[TheBioMech]

hate that snaking is a tease in Wii

[Mature]

lol ds looks cheap and tacky lool

[Dragon5n]

YOU MISSED THE SHORTCUT DUMBASS! lol jk jk

[chicacoboys]

id say ds wins the powerslide, but wii wins the new levels and how they designed the ds levels, but 4 this vid, ds wins power slide..

[jamnalex1234]

ds powerslides are better than wii powerslides.

[cyrs24eva]

Sheesh I was a little bummed when I found out MK Wii didn't let you control powerslides...

The difference is huge

[050295]

You get to choose between Automatic and Manual. Manual you get to control powerslides. Automatic you don't get to.

[Zedseayou]

I meant you can't really control when you get them.

Then again, you don't have to madly rock the d pad

[miamistyle786]

oh thanks i was wondering how to do it i thought manual was for the gears thanks alot :D thumbs up from me

[050295]

I wasn't really trying to help anyone, but your welcome anyway! =P

[productionstar]

wats the point?

[Biotonne20]

On the NDS it´s to easy!

[disa3006]

I prefer the Wii, it has better graphics the players look realistic.. whole new courses .. But Mario kart ds.. It has good courses but not the best i give Mario kart wii a 9.7/10 and Mario kart ds 8.2/10

[rutkettu]

the only bad thing about mk wii is that you cant snake

[geraxD]

in mario kart ds is easy to accelarate, but in mario kart wii one more difficult.but in mario kart wii more speede thain in Ds

[LilGreenie89]

I av

[thelapointe]

u cant use auto matic D:<

[Shishizurui]

you playing this game makes it look so much funner than it is. this game is really just a piece of shit. but u actually make me want to play it again.

[Breludicolo]

Ds is better.

I taught myself to snake without knowing that it even existed. As soon as I figured out how you were supposed to drift, snaking came naturally.

Plus, Manual is so bad that I switched to automatic (maybe just because it's abuseable :P).

On a random note, tick tock clock should've been in MK Wii...

[FurizankFan]

See we have the same thoughts!

[Reggiez1997007]

I think the DS one is better for players like me who rapidly click R + Left & Right, but the WII is better for relaxed players if you know what I mean.

[smashbr0s]

I like Wii better, but DS is much quicker to use mini-turbos.

[nintoad]

I'm thinking of getting Mario Kart Ds But i've already got it on wii. What do you guys recomend?

Please Reply on my homepage - Nintoad

[FurizankFan]

I say DS is very better ^.^(i didnt wanna waste my time going throug pages in internet.

[Macysworld]

i think ds, but thats my opinion

[Dimitri0809]

nah wii's better, orange spark is twice as long.

[DollarTrading]

DS!!! IS WAY BETTA

[SiPhur2]

Well, the blue sparks in mkw and the red sparks in mkds have the same amount of boost, so wii is better

[TMNT546873]

wii

[iKristene]

Wii!!

[Vi3tnAm3R]

ds is much betta den wii

[baseballguy457]

wii

[justluvGT]

saw u snaking at 1:32 eh!

[Murrtallica]

d s

[jacky61696]

to me both of it is good

[GoInAllWays]

Wii is much easier, cos you press down B (I play on manual) and that's all you press!

[JakeSteel0121]

Mario gets annoying saying YAHOO after EVERY SINGLE powerslide =S.

[kyleis52]

mario kart ds

[dannyjk2]

when i don't have anithing to do i just play my good and old Mario Kart DS cuz you know it never getes old =] lol

[ketturuut]

I agree with dannyjk2

[godofgames79]

c=3 ha ha i just got that

[jman80153]

how do you do that speed boost when you drift on the ds version

[combot8]

Powerslide and then rapidly press left and right until you see orange sparks. Don't press left and right simultaneously.

[combot8]

MKDS FTW!

[dragonxpower1]

the mario kart DS is better then mario kart wii

[HyperVoldo]

No its not. Snaking ruins online play. Although thats not to say mario kart wii doesn't have its problems too...

[slykid139]

i already have mario kart DS and im getting mario kart wii this christmas which is on thursday

[MaroonEldorBG]

Me to =D

jeeej

=3

[slykid139]

cool

[dialgapalkiamew1]

same! i prefer mario kart ds for drifting and mario kart wii for generally racing

[randompersoin08]

WII is so much better

[RuneScapeeeeee]

well drifting on wii looks better but i havent tried it yet :p

[linoqs]

wii

[isi023]

go Mario kart ds

[DDR2546]

I just now bought this game and the power sliding boosts are awesome. For the Wii, I bought it I mean.

[damnu93]

how u do it

[bumblesbounce54321]

the B button

[XxDomxX15]

Sadly, Mario Kart DS has better drifting ability.

[alantay11]

It Is Not Sadly Mario Kart Wii Has A worse Rating Than Mario Kart DS

[bumblesbounce54321]

if better is cheap then yes, but in my opinion the Wii is better because there isn't any snaking or any cheap stuff. its a better experience for all levels of gamer. (in my opinion)

[lordmasters6]

how do i actually do a powerslide?!?!??!

[sweetieboo123]

wii

[TMNT546873]

wii..

[StrangeThingsxufox]

mario kart ds..

[beastarrows]

mARIO KART DS I LIKE THAT ONE!

[ggbandits]

DID NINTENDO DS OR WII WIN WHECH ONE

[gtsprince]

cunt

[asl95]

wii

[cazaharl123]

Wii is way beta lol :]

[m2frogger]

Who cares about graphics? Graphics don't make excellent video games. What makes a game worth playing is Handling, music, controls ect. I'm not saying that graphics don't help at all but they, shouldn't be the main focus on what makes a game worth wild. An original eight bit game, like the first sonic for the Sega Genesis. That game I can say confidently is better then some games out there now.

[gizmosVT]

sonic was 16-bit :)

[m2frogger]

Well excuse me mate. Jeez anal much.lol. But still an awesome game to say the least.

[ILuvOmarionG]

I have Mario Kart on DS and compared to the one on the Wii, the graphics look so shit!

On the Wii, the kart is bigger and nicer and the grass and stuff is brighter and has more detail. I can't wait til christmas to get a Wii =]

[esmooth919]

Maybe so, but there is still a LOT of fun to be had with mario kart DS, particularly with multiplayer. I still remember my fave courses: Waluigi Pinball, Any of Bowser's castles, Wario Stadium, and the hardest one, Rainbow Road (DS)

[ILuvOmarionG]

True!

Mario games rule =]

[cazaharl123]

lol im getin an wii with this game for xmas =]

[ILuvOmarionG]

OMG so am i!!!

Lol i'm so excited

=]

[cazaharl123]

lol

[cazaharl123]

why is ya message been marked as spam when u were only typing a comment telling me i wont be dissapointed when i get my wii:S

[kuyacishan]

me two!!!!

[federeriscol]

ds is better for powersliding, u go faster plus u can do more

[hjoon96]

can u snake on wii?(to use turbo to the right then to tthe left and so on...)

[federeriscol]

yh course u can, everybody does it!

:D

[MarioMaster95]

snaking on the wii is nearly impossible the only way to do it is with the gamecube conntroller

[CelestialMarauder]

he was demonstrating something genius. If he took a shortcut it would make the whole thing pointless. And btw wtf is a nood

[Sporelivore447]

Yay they removed snaking/PRB.online is either super easy to win or impossible. I either get one snaker a driver and PRB but usually a hacker too. I can snake but PRB and hackers really annoy me so the wii version would be fun I'll get it.

[muscletruckdude]

hey, can u please tell me what PRB means? cause i really have no clue

[TLG160]

u powerslide by pressing R in to a turn then press left,right

then left, right again

[kevina56]

dont get ya

[kevina56]

someone tell me how to do a power slide because i dont really know

[Css2life]

on mario kart wii u picke manual right after u pick ur car then it asks if u want to use powerslide or not

[usaswim323]

you could get more powerslides on ds than wii, if you're good enough...

[andy23bob]

wii

[BuBBaGuMP207]

actually the wii has red sparks after the blue sparks... -.-

[ratchet777000]

wii

[jortbruinsma]

I play both DS and Wii, but I have to admit, powersliding on DS is alot easier and faster..and u can snake. but on the Wii the powersliding you only get blue sparks, wich is easier than on the DS by wasting ur time on the red sparks.

[bubbagump200]

Anyone else has wii for mario kart so i can play you on wifi? I just love playing online =)
