This remote controlled Mario Kart vehicle features Mario driving a red car. In 1992, Nintendo released Super Mario Kart for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). This racing game enabled players to use Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Toad, Bowser, Koopa Troopa, Yoshi, or Donkey Kong Jr. Gamers could choose to play Mario Kart using either a single-player racing mode or as a two-person competition. The game was significant for being the first entry in the Mario Kart series, which is considered by gamers and critics alike to be one of the best multi-player games of all time. Nintendo followed this release with games like Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, and Mario Kart Wii. Overall, Super Mario Kart sold nearly nine million copies, making it an incredible success for Nintendo.
