How the new Mario Kart 7 Courses Rate: In My Opinion
Toad Circuit(***): A good starter course in the game (certainly better than the starter course in it's predecessor Mario Kart Wii), but once again it's to be expected.
Daisy Circuit(***): I enjoyed this circuit a lot, due to it's uniqueness, but the soundtrack has a negative affect.
Cheep Cheep Cape(****): Really justifies diving in this course, and the demand for diving in future courses increased for me.
Shy Guy Bazaar(*****): Another unique course that comes together with perfection, it's Arabian style is the perfect match for even Uncharted 3.
Wuhu Island Loop(***): The first course in dedication to the Miis, certainly fun but without any impact.
Mario Circuit(***): The usual class of a Mario Circuit but with a new unique blend to keep it fresh.
Melody Motorway(*****): Another top notch course with a musical theme, Nintendo and Retro Studios perfected this genre of course which wouldn't be easy for most game designers.
Alpine Pass(***): Gliding is perfection in this course but the last stretch of race track could have been improved.
Piranha Plant Pipeway(****): A great homage to the classic Mario games blending with new style gaming.
Wario's Galleon(****): Certainly better than many of Wario courses prior to it and a perfect course for drifters.
Koopa City(****): Was not expected in my opinion, but this futuristic setting really worked in this game.
Wuhu Mountain Loop(***): Same as the other Wuhu course, very enjoyable but without the impact.
DK Jungle(***): An enjoyable course but with Retro behind the helm I hoped for this to be as good as levels in DK Country Returns, sadly not.
Rosalina's Ice World(*****): Would have been difficult to design a course for Rosalina without a space theme, but while this is a great dedication to Rosalina it's my favourite Ice Course of all time.
Bowser's Castle(***): Here we have another Bowser's Castle that unfortunately isn't a significant one but with gliding and diving it slightly adds up for this.
Rainbow Road(*****): This Rainbow Road is leagues above every other one due to the amount of effort placed in it, they went outside of the box with this one.
