I'm waiting for IGN to tell me to

I can't believe other poeple can't understand that there are millions of people who love Mario Kart and see no reason to shell out another $60 for a second kart game. Some people have limited time & money, and a wide range of games they would like to play. I'd rather spend my money on 3D Dot Game Heroes, Red Dead Redpemption, Muramasa, or a few other games.

@binary solo

sure MNR could be a system seller, Mario Kart Wii and DS already proved that good kart games can be system sellers. However, they need to have really good gameplay and a good set of premade tracks. People (in general) don't want (or know how) to make good race tracks. Even if you argue that there are a lot of talented people online, people still have to sift through all the garbage that is uploaded and the hearted/starred to get the platinum trophy.

I am, looking forward to playing a racing game without a rainbow colored road (j/k)

Will get but not at full price.

Wow this guy means business....

I might, I like kart racers. If reviews are decent I'll likely pick it up.

that I get, but it's when people dog out MNR as  a mario clone..... which it's not

Already played it to pieces and will continue to when the retail versions come into the stores.

@ nordlead: I can honestly say that some tracks in MNR are superior to those of mario kart. On top of that, there's way more to do during a race aside from snaking and using power-ups. That's without even touching what you can do outside of races.

It should be a good online experience and the potential for great creativity is high. The user content alone easily justifies a purchase!

I've seen people banned for less you might want to be careful, I have been banned for saying the Wii is childish and I actually own and like the system.
