Konami Krazy Racers was a launch title for the Game Boy Advance. It is often seen as a "Mario Kart" clone, but it's a competent game of its own. My biggest issue with the game is that the engine volume is too loud... And that the game has no form of powerslide like in Mario Kart, so sharp corners are a lot more difficult to handle.

The game features four "cups", each of them featuring four tracks. In tracks, there are collectable coins, as well as red bells and blue bells. The coins are used in a shop, accessible through the main menu (which I don't make use of at all in this playthrough). The blue bells give a one-time speed boost, and the red bells contain a variety of offensive weaponry. You have to complete a series of challenges to unlock the next cup (which I also show in the playthrough).

Note that this was recorded from beginning to end with no rerecording of any sort. Therefore, if I fail, I fail, and that's in the video too. And I play on Hard difficulty (but this game is pretty easy compared to similar racing titles, even on the hardest difficulty).

Here is the cast of characters, as well as the Konami game(s) they are from. I will give the Japanese name of the game/series they are from in parenthesis.

Goemon - Legend of the Mystical Ninja (Ganbare Goemon series)
Takosuke - Parodius (Parodius)
Dracula - Castlevania series (Akumajo Dracula series)
Cyborg Ninja (aka Gray Fox) - Metal Gear & Metal Gear Solid series (same names in Japanese)
Pastel - Twinbee (Twinbee series)
Power Pro-kun - MLB Power Pros (same name in Japanese)
Moai - Gradius (same name in Japanese)
Nyami - Pop'n Music (same name in Japanese)

P.S. : Most character names are shortened in the game's results screen due to the short allowed space, so here's the list for that.

Goemon = Goe
Takosuke = Tako
Dracula = Drac
Cyborg Ninja (Gray Fox) = Ninja
Pastel = Pastl (since this is the character I use, it uses my name, though)
Power Pro-kun = Pawa
Moai = Moai
Nyami = Nyami
