Fire-hopping is a flaw in Mario Kart 8, just like wave-dashing and other exploits are flaws in Melee.

Games are not supposed to have exploits, that's why they're called exploits.


Supposedly wave-dashing is a feature not an exploit.

No, wave-dashing wasn't a feature, it was something that you were able to do because of the air dodging mechanic in the game that allowed you to use it to increase your speed on the ground.   If it's because Sakurai knew about it, well, he did know about it, he just didn't think that anyone would use it since he was advertising it to be a party game rather than a competitive one.  L-cancelling was a feature that existed in both Melee and 64 if that's what you were thinking about.
