There's serious problems with Mario Kart 8

The coin item can be a little frustrating because sometimes you end up losing and there's simply nothing you can do about it because you are afforded no defense(red shells are pretty much guaranteed for those in second and third place). Previously there was at least the risk/reward of whether you held onto your tenth banana peel or attempted to ruin the racing line of those behind you, now they are items that you simply can't afford to just throw away.

Also, I got hit twice by the same blue shell the other day! What the frick!? I was in a comfortable first place on Doughnut Plains and with little warning was unceremoniously taken out by a blue shell traveling along the ground at high velocity. It continued on its merry way for a moment, then paused, as though suddenly thinking better of its first effort, launched itself into the air and attacked me from above with gusto, just to make sure the job was done properly . On one hand I admire the dedication but I have to say that is uncalled for!

Bahahahaha, you have a way with words, my friend. I also feel your pain. Perfectly sums it up!
