"I've never played the original Mario Kart, but I do own Mario Kart 64."
There's your problem. Mario Kart 64 isn't HALF the game the original Super Mario Kart was.
As for me, I haven't had enough playing time with Double Dash to come to a decision on it. I will say initially my feelings were not good toward the game when I played it in a demo machine at Electronics Botique in my local mall last week. The first track was very boring and seemed too much like Mario Kart 64 (which I didn't particularly care for).
You want a good Mario Kart game? Play the original Super NES game. Another excellent game is the GBA Mario Kart Super Circuit...they actually kept the physics similar to the original Mario Kart. MK64 was crap, sorry.
I'm a little disappointed that more people don't come out and decry Nintendo over this. Instead we get people kissing Nintendo's bum. I'm beginning to think that Nintendo could take a dump on a plate, place a sign behind it saying it was Super Mario Kart Double Dash and it would still get high ratings. Look, I love Nintendo, growing up with their games and all, but not even hype can save MK64 (and Double Dash--again I haven't played it enough to determine if it stinks or not yet).
As for me, I'll probably wait to pick up Double Dash when it's in the bargain bin.
