  • Super Mario Kart (Nintendo, €7.99/ £7.19 or €3.99/ £3.59 until 24th March for those who also buy F-Zero on the New 3DS on the same NNID) – originally arriving on the SNES in 1992 (1993 in Europe), this was the game that sparked the kart racing trend of the 1990’s. Countless others tried and failed, but Super Mario Kart has continued to become one of Nintendo’s biggest franchises and best sellers. The game combines and balances well the speed and precision power sliding of kart racing, with the fun and color of the Mario universe.
