While the term should be taken with a pinch of salt concerning a Mario Kart game, I honestly feel it is in fact the most balanced Mario Kart game to date. That's considering I bought the game post-patch, however.

But for some reason, I dunno, I don't think I've had as much fun with it as MKDS, even though that games online infrastructure was barebones as all hell, 4 players maximum, missing tracks, and more often than not, turned into a clusterfuck of maintaining PRBs/counterpicking snakers with Rainbow Road.

Maybe part of me really, really wanted to have Vanilla Lake or Bowser's Castle from SMK in the game. I swear to God, if MK8 uses Mario Circuit 4 over both of them...
