Most Overrated Mario Kart Items
So yeah I like a large majority of items. However some are just plain overrated. This is based on how good the item is, how many games it's been in since it's debut and how often it appears. I will try to focus on generally well liked items.It's a giant green shell. That's it.
Just an oversized banana. That's it.
Completely useless. Anyone with more than 5 minutes experience can recognize it instantly.
I hate how it can't defend a green shell. Even a banana can do that
It's in every Mario kart game since Mario kart 64. It strikes maybe 1-2 times per race. It zaps and shrinks anyone in front of you. However your almost guaranteed to not get one person at least.
It's nice for shortcuts but nothing more than that. The triple is way better
The skilled players can dodge blue shells with it, you know.
This item is not that good. Bananas and green shells do the job better.
A lot of people hate this item though
It's so hard to hit someone. You have to aim perfectly. And you also have to avoid being It's victim.
It may have only been in one game. But it's popular just because the blue shell.
The only downside is you can only use it once
It's nice but almost too much.
Yep this is the most controversial item. You either love it or hate it. But in reality it gets too much attention.
Useful if you're at the back of the line. If you're not, well, damn
Chain Chomps, known as Wanwan in Japan, are metal, barking ball-and-chain like creatures that are restrained by Chains and are a main enemy in the Mario franchise. Bullet is overall better
The Piranha Plant, known as the Pakkun Flower in Japan, is a plant species from the Mario franchise which usually appears as a leafy green stalk topped with a white-spotted red or green globe, with a maw lined with sharp teeth reminiscent of piranhas. It's only good for eating stuff in front of you. You are completely vulnerable from behind
Bloopers (Often Referred To Bloobers Until Paper Mario, Though Blooper was in use beforehand) are Squid-Like creatures that are found in the ocean. They made their first appearance in Super Mario Bros., and various kinds of them have appeared in the Mario games since, normally as enemies. Mario Party 8 was the first game to feature blooper as a playable character. Bloopers come in different sizes and colors, though the original variety shown in super Mario Bros is white. Not overrated because everyone hates it
