I found this

So yeah it could be that they made some changes. We have nothing solid about it though. So just wait for the reviewers to clear things up. Maybe there are 2 modes available, oldschool and  easy.

They clearly made some changes lol. And as I said at the end of the post that bumped this thread up, I expect things to be cleared up the next time MK8 is shown. Besides there is no harm in talking about what we do know and making speculations n such. That's the whole point of this forum afterall!

Then to come back to the actual question of this thread; I don't know.

I am someone who is heavily utilizing his items so it would probably make things harder and less enjoyable for me because I would lose the edge I have against weaker players. I still don't think they will go through with such a huge change. And if they do, the outrage of the gaming community would bring it back via patch.
