I think your cons aren't cons besides the battle mode. Single player doesn't matter in multiplayer games, and Mario Kart TV isn't part of the game. That's like docking of points from Watch_Dogs because you don't like the phone app. I give it a 9, but if it gets DLC cups, and they're just as good, it'll be a 10. It does what it's supposed to do, and I never cared about Battle Mode. I only ever liked the one in Diddy Kong Racing, anyway.
