10 Most Underrated Kart Racing Video Games Of All Time

8. Konami Krazy Racers

Put simply, not enough people played this game, but the reaction is the same whenever I show people: "Why have I not heard about this!?"

You can play as Gray Fox from MGS1 for a start, and Vic Viper from Gradius. You can even race on a Shadow Moses inspired track!

It’s like a collection of the coolest kids that you and your dad might remember from way back when, all crammed into a handheld game that was incredibly fun to play, and there was nothing more enjoyable than slapping in that link cable and challenging friends to a showdown. Especially seeing as the soundtrack was utterly bumping.

Plus, unlike Mario Kart, you could keep your coins between races and spend them in a shop to upgrade the number of times you could use items in a match. Things like this gave the game longevity AND it did it all before Mario Kart even hit the Game Boy Advance, releasing at the launch of the console.

Take that Mario, you goon!
