do we get rol'ed by posting an answer here or what?

Haha, naw man. I'd just appreciate it if people shared their views on Mario Kart 7.

Lakitu is best.

And while I agree with the game being more fun, if it's quite more luck based (who doesn't want to get hit by a blue shell right before the finish line?) and balanced for everyone, I really miss the Mission Mode from Mario Kart DS. There is not much to do in MK7 - play all cups, do them 3 stars - play online -get all the items.

Though Online Mode is what MK7 is all about, I enjoyed the tiny bit of variety from the normal Mario Kart gameplay.

The entire site is thankful for that.

Snaking actually was not a good thing. Having to use more boosts during EVERY turn actually takes more skill.

That being said, I don't like having to pick up coins to get to top speed or the lack of bikes. Also, I agree with you about the lack of quality characters.

And I actually agree about that. I just wanted to add to the fact that driving skills matter less while items matter more, which is my main issue with this game.

I haven't master Mario Kart 7 yet so I wouldn't know, but Mario Kart Wii I could almost always win regardless of the items (I had a 9999 VR).  Basically, if you were really good, that stuff usually didn't matter.

That delicious sarcasm.

I was still happy enough with it I suppose.

There is something called the Report Button. Still, it's supposed to be like this......

Ok, so here is my answer ;)

1. The blue shells are overpowered: Yes, I agree.

 2. It has the best possible character roster: I dont agree. Where is waluigi? Bowser JR?

3. The game is called "Mario Kart 7: I not sure this is a good or a bad thing tbh.

4. They removed lots of unnecessary features from Mario Kart DS: I missed the mission mode. After you are done with the 3 stars all you have is online.

5. Vehicle customization practically doesn't matter: I disagree. It does matter a lot. I am always trying to improve my times on the trials I have found quite of a difference from one car to the other.

6. There is no snaking ability: I agree. I can now play online. People spamming maka wuhu was killing the online for me, but with the patch everything is nice!

7. The game is nostalgic: I agree.
