Yep, you looked at my entire post and took a single quote out of context. I'm gonna quote you now (in context) -

NJ5 - "I'm just calling it as I see it. Let's see another quote of yours: "With the new Mario Kart, it doesn't matter whether your 'skillfull' or not,"

That is the same as saying that "winning is completely based on luck",

You were wrong. Period.

Bold: I value the word of several experienced video game reviewers over the random word of a Nintendo fan on the internet.

For example, many of them claim that power sliding has been altered to suit more novice players. I don't know about you, but this is something I used in previous Mario Kart games to my advantage.

This alone proves that Mario Kart Wii has been dumbed down to some extent, but i'm sure you will deny this.


I think we can both agree on stopping to argue on the semantics side. I've already admitted the possibility that some of your quotes were not what you meant, it seems both of us have realized that already.

Turning to the interesting part, let's talk about the power sliding then. Did you know that many reviewers didn't even understand how power-sliding works in MK:Wii? I don't remember seeing any review mentioning that the boost charges faster if you drive in the inner part of the curve. That's something which takes skill to get used to, and one of the many things that skilled players use to literally own unskilled players (except in extremely unlucky cases which are really rare). That's an example which should show you how unfairly this game was reviewed.
