Why do they turn like they're going to snap their necks?

[Anonymous No.6530556]

It's called a Tokyo-drift, and it's used for cutting close corners in a race.

Why is Nintendo fanbase so ripe with autistic retards?

Probably to give a better visual cue for turning. The exaggerated appearance makes sure that turning vs going straight is more obvious.

no neck support, so you gotta lean in or you muscles will strain then you head with flail with the G force.

Probably this >>6533224
but I also wonder whether the team in charge of animations for character sprites were in close enough contact with the team responsible for fine-tuning the physics for kart movement. It would have been pretty easy for a group project to have started with a tight-turning drift in mind, then realized that either it was too hard for kids to do, or that building tracks with turns that tight was too hard, and to wind up with a ton of tight-turning sprites left over after the original vision changed.

Because the people who play them are either manchildren or actual children.
