Mario Kart doesn’t take it easy on the kids.
Especially if they’re winning.
When I was young I used to get so unreasonably upset, crying that "the game cheats!" and my parents would make me turn off the console for the rest of the day until my attitude improved. They, and eventually I, just thought I was bad at handling failure.
Lo and behold, 20 years later, do some deep dive into the code and the way Mario Kart actually functions, turns out that mfer DOES cheat like hell, constantly.
