10 Video Games You Should Play On Easy

Every great franchise has to start somewhere, and it's certainly fair to say that the Mario Kart franchise thankfully has its worst days behind it now. The ultimate party game to play with friends, Mario Kart doesn't need a storyline to entice people in, and it is only through unlocking certain characters, cups and speeds that later games began to encourage completionists to venture out of their comfort zone and try a harder difficulty.

However, whilst it was revolutionary for its Mode 7 design and spawning one of the most popular spin off franchises in history, the only reward Super Mario Kart offers its players who grind through the entire game is the 150cc mode. On a SNES console, this change of speed was nowhere near as noticeable as it is in the more contemporary games, and was definitely not worth ploughing through such a notoriously unfair game for.

It's clear that the courses in Super Mario Kart were not designed for anything over 100cc, and the game has become infamous for its brutal rubber-banding between the player and AI and the powerful special items that only the computer has access to. To enjoy a fun and enjoyable experience, it's best to just stick to the easier speeds with this classic title.
