It's a hidden gem for me!
Biker Mice From Mars has the three main characters. Mono, Vinnie, and Throttle each had their own personality and for me, Vinnie was the most cool and awesome of the group.

Biker Mice From Mars has the three main characters. Mono, Vinnie, and Throttle each had their own personality and for me, Vinnie was the most cool and awesome of the group. As you would expect all three of the Biker Mice are here. However, there is also Grease Pit, Lawrence Limburger, and Dr. Karbunkle to play as also. Six characters is a little on the small side I know, but each character has their own stats as well as a special move they can use a few times per race. So, while the roster is small it at least is rather unique.
Biker Mice From Mars on the Super Nintendo is best described as a combat racing game. You have to win each race and if you do you get money that you can then use to upgrade your bike and weapons in between races. There is more depth here than you would think and while that isometric viewing angle can take a while to get used to, the actual racing is surprisingly fun.
The controls are great and once you get the hang of them you will be zipping around the track, blasting missiles at anyone who gets to close. I was honestly expecting this to be horrible, but the gameplay is fun and challenging. As well as racing, you have to avoid the enemy attacks which helps add strategy to the game. It has that classic 90s Konami quality all over it.
