Which grown up Mario Kart do you think is better?

What a subtle thread title.

Mario Kart 64.

Your assumption that Mario Kart isn't for adults is false.

"Grown up"? So, this is viral marketing, right? You should check out Crime Life Gang Wars because it's the BOMB
 
Of those two, Blur. I like the Wipeout-ness.

Super Mario Kart, it's my favorite game in terms of balance and difficulty, sure the AIs cheats but that's part of the charm and the reason 2 players exist, nothing like having both mario and luigi on your tail spamming stars with rubberband AI, and it's my favorite in terms of items balancing, no blue shell. The luck factor comes from the use of feather and the lightning item, but you could jump over gaps without feather for some shortcuts if you're fast enough. (except for ones that're blocked by walls of course). 

Red shell can't touch you if you drive fast enough and keep your maximum speed on 150cc. It caters to both demographic who just wants to have fun and ones that wants to play skillfully and looking for a challenge.

Edit: oh I didn't really see your choices posted, can you elaborate on this "grown up" thing? Are the drivers in Blur and Split/Second adults? I've never played either other than the split second demo, but that didn't really show much.

And I've never played mario kart wii, so I can't really comment on that, but I didn't really enjoy double dash, MK DS was ruined by snaking that pretty much killed any form of kart balancing, so using light kart (fast acceleration+snaking) gives a great advantage due to item spamming, I could be wrong however, I didn't really spend too much time in that game, but 150cc was too boring in that compared to previous games.

Mario Kart Wii is the best.  Any other answer is nostalgia talking.

MK Wii would be my favorite if it weren't for the rubberbanding. It was bearable in previous games, but it's bad enough to seriously detract from the fun in the Wii version. So I'll go with DS.

I wouldn't really call split/second anything close to Mario Kart. Speaking experience wise, not quality wise.
 
Like... at all. Not to the extent of Blur.

Split Second doesn't have very much in common with Mario Kart at all. 
Also, if sales are any indicator, the majority of the people on earth aren't interested in a "Mario Kart for big boys". Blur's selling for like 20 dollars now.

love the title haha :D

Mario Kart.

Split/Second really isn't a Mario Kart. I would call it more of an arcade racer more than anything else.

If we're counting Split/Second as a Mario Kart game, might as well count Burnout as one too.  So, Burnout.

 Split/Second is more like Burnout.

I prefer Blur to Split/Second.

So the verdict is Split/Second =/= Mario Kart, thus Blur wins by default, as it's the only proper canidate.

Blur personally.

Double Dash. 

Mario Kart Wii owns the shit out of both of these titles.

Dumb thread titlee, but my vote laneded on Split(Sedond. i didnt really care for the blur beat, and the demo for split/secondwas awesome, and of those two split/second is the one with the most appeal, and its the one which seems crazietst, best, and the one which offers the miost fun :b

Mario Kart for the Snes. 

with out giving a option for gamers that have not played the game yet, your probably already getting in accurate results, but either way after the demo's I thought Blur was actually kind of fun.  Can't go wrong with a 20 vs all out war races....  unless no one buys it lol.
