Well, this topic is pretty straightforward. Just tell what your favorite Mario Kart game is and why.
For me, Mario Kart DS easily beats every other Mario Kart game. The gameplay is tight and easy to get used to. The graphics are acceptable for a Nintendo DS game. The character selection is all fine and dandy (come on, you know you like R.O.B.!), and there are interesting tracks and items. For the most part the game is good. The online is somewhat limited, but hey. It's Mario Kart.
In the newer games, they don't even use karts. → Mario Kart 64 is my favourite game of the series. Everything feels just right and I especially like the controls.

I prefer Crash Team Racing. (It's not mario, but it's still a kart racer game.) But I think my favourite Mario Kart game is Mario Kart 64, because I vaguely remember winning the first time I played it.
