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. Like literally every second the game is running the CPU racers are cheating. They’ll rubber band to your speed to make sure an opponent is always on your ass at all times, they straight up ignore walls and out-of-bounds slowdown, they roll good items they shouldn’t be able to have in their position - MK is crooked as hell in all possible places that the devs could sneak cheats into.
I still have yet to receive an apology about this.
