Players immediately get rescued by Lakitu if they fall into pits or into lava, however. Some tracks feature water that players can fall into: if players fall into deeper areas, players can move around for a little while before eventually being picked up by Lakitu. While karts in this game can brake with, they cannot go in reverse: players need to perform a U-Turn or hop around to go backwards. A slight drift is also possible by only holding either the left or right button after a hop. If they hold the button after hopping while holding either left or right, they can power slide, which will enable them to drive through harder turns while losing less speed than steering through them. Players can hop if they press either and. Question Blocks get depleted whenever a player runs over them, and they do not respawn their items until all Question Blocks in the track get used up.ДЄt the start of the race, players can rev up for a boost, though if they rev up too much, they accelerate much slower. For example, players farther behind obtain stronger items such as the invincible, speed-raising Star or the Lightning that can shrink all racers while players in better positions receive the basic Banana Peels and Green Shells items. Integral to the gameplay is the item system, where players can pick up items from Question Blocks mostly clustered around parts of the track, where the item obtained is dependent on their position. In a race, players must rank high in the opposition by completing a race around a racetrack first, which consists of five laps due to their short length. Players pick a Mario character out of a cast of 8 characters to race against opponents racers have their own stats which determine how they will control, though it is not displayed in-game. 20.1 Super Mario Kart: Fully souped up!.Super Mario Kart was re-released on the Wii's Virtual Console in 2009-2010, on the Wii U's Virtual Console in 2013-2014, on the New Nintendo 3DS's Virtual Console in 2016, is one of the 21 titles included on the Super NES Classic Edition, and is one of the 20 launch titles for Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online, which also released a special version titled Super Mario Kart: Fully souped up! with 150cc and the Special Cup unlocked on May 26, 2021. It has ranked among the greatest games of all time by various organizations due to its legacy and its gameplay. The game's use of its wider cast of characters such as Bowser and Peach has likely influenced the creation of later multiplayer-oriented Mario spin-off titles that involved a playable, larger cast of Mario characters such as Mario Tennis and Mario Party.

Due to the game's success and creation of the Mario Kart spin-off, many elements from the game has found their way into multiple other Mario series, such as Super Mario 3D World receiving a level designed after one of its courses. The game's high success has created the hugely influential Mario Kart series, as well as being the pioneer of the kart-racing genre. Part of this game is heavily based on Super Mario World in terms of graphics and overall theme, such as sprites reusing assets from Super Mario World and the game's soundtrack rearranging Super Mario World melodies. A notable aspect of the game is its Mode 7 graphics, where the game simulates a 3D plane by rotating and scaling a background graphic on a scanline-by-scanline basis, allowing players to simulate driving through a track. The development of a one-on-one Battle Mode was invented as another way to enjoy the competitive system by another means. Unlike the other racing games at the time, which focused on single-player pure racing with more complicated tracks, Super Mario Kart had a development focused on two players and was designed to be an easy and intuitive 'pick up and play' experience that heavily involves the use of acquiring weapons on an obstacle course-like track to impede another player's progress. Super Mario Kart is a racing game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, which was first released in 1992 and re-released in 1996 as a Player's Choice title, being the first title in the line up.
