Strange that Nintendo didn't shake things up more,  their games are usually bursting with new ideas

MK's not a bad little franchise but it's not one that'll make me buy a machine to play it, especially one that's going to have a redesign happening any day now.

Isn't Rainbow Road a remake of the SNES track, which was also in the GBA Mario Kart?

Sounds like Nintendo just said "fuck it" with this one.  Kind of like Mario 3D Land.

I heard the requirements for snaking are pretty strict this time out and you can only snake on a couple of tracks that are boring anyway.  True of false? idk, the only Mario Kart I ever bought was the GBA one and I never snaked in F-Zero GX.

3D Land and this happenning so quickly are kind of blatant panic button responses to the 3DS not selling worth a fuck imo.

yeah, it really reeks of "fuck, button it up fast, we gotta get these out NOW".  especially the lack of polish on the level design in SM3DL.

Thought you liked SM3DL

I played against US GAFfers this afternoon and the online was surprisingly smooth. But I have a feeling it'll chug once the rest of the world get their hands on it today.

Anyhow, I created a Bore community . You add a community once to your list, and play against whoever joins, no confirmation or friend code handshaking. Afterwards you can play with anyone you met there in Friends/Opponents menu. So there's no need to swap multiple codes to play together for this.

The community's freaking fourteen digit code is: 54-5374-9491-3517. That's 54-HOLY-SHIT-NINT [150cc - All items]

Hurry up, fegs.

Really glad you can just hop right into 150CC from the start.

Not liking the continued Mario Kart "random items" factor.  There's been some really, REALLY CHEAP shit that's happened to me in Grand Prix.  I'll be in 1st place and go over a jump, which is right when an item will hit me and my kart goes spiraling down the pit. Then I get with another item right as I respawn and fall down the same pit again.   :lol :yuck

Game is definitely solid, though.
