| RolStoppable said: Mario Kart Wii wasn't easy. In fact, on this forum we had people crying over how hard it was to get three star rankings. Now why is MK Wii better than DD? 1) Customizable four player GPs. 2) No snaking, thus actual racing. Emphasized by the miniboost system that rewarded you for entering turns at the correct angle like it should be in a racing game. 3) Not as easy as DD. Touching walls or going off track in DD didn't get properly punished. 4) Better item balance. DD's character-specific items made the game lopsided. 5) More tracks, more options, online. It's also a myth that there is a higher frequency of blue shells in MK Wii. 1-2 per race are also the norm in DD, outliers of 0 or 3 every now and then also happen in both games. |
That's true regarding your second point. On the one hand I like having to work for your powerslide boost, but on the other, people abusing it by snaking sucks.
