Mission Mode. One of the greatest modes in any Mario Kart game. You have these short challenges where you have to complete certain requirements like collecting all the coins, break all the item boxes, beat a CPU in a race or even drive through a course backwards. There’s even bossfights at the end of each level, featuring the likes of Big Bully, King Boo, King Bob-omb, Goomboss and more from Super Mario 64 DS. It’s a shame this mode never came back because this is some really cool singleplayer content.
