I guess I'll get the ball rolling...
Best: Koopa Troopa (I liked him the most when I was younger. He was my main.) Worst: Luigi (As an enemy, he is always right near me and constantly using the star.) Q1. Is this the best Mario Kart game? No. Double Dash is my favourite. This is 2nd. Q2. Do you know who Kinopio is? I had absolutely no idea, until a few years ago, when I played this game with Japanese people. I also learnt that Koopa Troopa is called Noko Noko. And Bowser is Koopa. Q3. Does the 'rubber band' effect make this game better or worse? Mmm... Difficult to answer. Yes, in 2 player mode, because if you are playing with a friend who is awesome and racing flawlessly, they will drag the other characters up with them making it impossible for you to catch up if you are lagging behind, even if you are racing perfectly yourself. Q4. When was the last time you played this game? Right now on Super Famicom. Q5. Can you boost start every time without fail? No. Q6. Have you ever tried go-karting in real life? Never. I want to try it. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Worst: Donkey Kong Jr. Q1. Is this the best Mario Kart game? No Q2. Do you know who Kinopio is? No Q3. Does the 'rubber band' effect make this game better or worse?

Can you boost start every time without fail? Nope Q6. Have you ever tried go-karting in real life? Yes, I sucked. --- "In my headcanon, some staffer saw Trump pull out his phone and start typing so they just Terry Tate Office Linebacker'd him out of his shoes." - FFD ... Copied to Clipboard!

Best: Toad
Worst: Mario Toad/Koopa have the best handling, Peach/Yoshi have the best acceleration, which helps at lower CCs, and Bowser/DK Jr are the fastest, even if I have a hard time controlling them. Mario/Luigi aren't the best at anything, and I don't see a real good gameplay reason to pick them. --- "Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images" - Romans 1:22-23 ...

Worst: Donkey Kong Jr Q1. Is this the best Mario Kart game? No. Id say its near the bottom. Q2. Do you know who Kinopio is? Sure do Q3. Does the 'rubber band' effect make this game better or worse? Rubber band is annoying but Im neutral towards it. Keeps me alert while playing at least. Q4. When was the last time you played this game? Probably a year or so ago. Q5. Can you boost start every time without fail? No, but its close. Q6. Have you ever tried go-karting in real life? No, but Id like to try it. --- Bear Bro The Empire of Silence ... Copied to Clipboard!

Best: Mario
Worst: DK Jr I used to prefer the lightweights, but eventually I came to appreciate the better speed the Bros have to offer, without it being too punishing to accelerate or steer like Bowser. And back when this game came out, DK felt like a really weird inclusion. This was before Donkey Kong Country, so DK Jr was literally just the ape from Donkey Kong 2. He's slow and clunky, and drops banana peels freaking everywhere. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Best: Toad
Worst: Donkey Kong Jr Q1. Is this the best Mario Kart game? Nope. I like 64 better, to say nothing for the ones I haven't played, of which there are many. Q2. Do you know who Kinopio is? Pretty sure it's something related to Toad. Maybe the Japanese name for Toad? I don't know. Q3. Does the 'rubber band' effect make this game better or worse? Some mild rubber banding would be fine but the extent this game does makes it worse. Q4. When was the last time you played this game? 15-20 years ago Q5. Can you boost start every time without fail? Close to. Q6. Have you ever tried go-karting in real life? Yeah many times. Never had one of my own, but had many friends who had one. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ...

Best: Yoshi, for I am an uncoordinated mess that crashes too much to make higher top speeds and better handlings worth it. This held true through 64 and MK Advance, before being supplanted in Double Dash by Waluigi and Diddy.
Worst: DK Jr. See above, and a long time to accelerate is not very good for me (though I got better, again, around the Double Dash days, but I'm still not a heavy driver fan.) Q1: Nah. Double Dash is probably "perfect." Q2: Is that Toad? Q3: Not as bad as some later ones but it's pretty bad here. Q4: Earlier in summer when I was fiddling with my Switch library. Q5: Not in this one :( Q6: Yes! It was the highlight of my preteen/teen years vacationing in the 90s/early 00s (after I gave up on dirt bikes) --- [The Artist Formerly Known as Earthshaker.] ...

Best: Mario
Worst: Bowser Q1. Is this the best Mario Kart game? No, but it is well-balanced, at least. Q2. Do you know who Kinopio is? Yup. Q3. Does the 'rubber band' effect make this game better or worse? The game would be extremely difficult without it, so... better, I guess. Q4. When was the last time you played this game? Probably six months ago? I played my SNES Classic with friends a while back. Q5. Can you boost start every time without fail? Not anymore. I probably got it 90% of the time at my peak, so I guess I was never 100%. Q6. Have you ever tried go-karting in real life? Yes. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." ... Copied to Clipboard!

Best: Yoshi
Worst: DK Jr Not sure if DK Jr became Diddy or what but he looks like a different character entirely. Q1. Is this the best Mario Kart game? No. Q2. Do you know who Kinopio is? No actually Q3. Does the 'rubber band' effect make this game better or worse? See Q4 Q4. When was the last time you played this game? I don't remember. It's probably been 25 years. Q5. Can you boost start every time without fail? I'd have to get back into practice, but I'm not very good at it in other MarioKart games. Q6. Have you ever tried go-karting in real life? Not in the last 15 years but certainly before that. It was a lot of fun back then!
