Some statistics would have been nice and the online mode doesn't work for me which sucks big time

Getting coins all the time really pisses me off, it's gotten to the point if I get a turtle or banana while on the first lap I hold on to it for as long as I can when racing in 150 cc. The AI is brutal and the game seems to follow one rule very strictly- Any AI behind the first player will always get red shells, even if they are in second place. They get way too many red shells and always seem to have a blue shell right before you cross the finish line. I get so angry at this game sometimes, I almost slam my gamepad.

Agreed the lack of rainbow road wii and gamecube dk ountain make this game lame

Do you think they will patch that shitty coin when you are in 1st place?! It ruins the game!

Whatever they do with items, people will always complain about something. It's like balance in Starcraft 2.

I just wish the game had a settings menu and statistics. I really dislike how Nintendo is obsess with keeping their game menus hyper simple.

The only problem with MK8 is that the AI hates my guts. Bastard always spike shelling my ass before the finishing line and constantly giving me freakin' coins as an item. What's that about?

I noticed that too. I don't think it's just Nintendo though. It feels as if simple menus is becoming a thing for this generation as a whole, which is lame.

Hmm, I was expecting game crashing bugs and what I got was gameplay nitpicking...

and if we are nitpicking:
OP: "There's serious problems with Mario Kart 8"
"There are problems" not "There is problems".

Yep. MK8 looks way similar to MK7 which was inferior to other MK's, including Wii.
MKWii was hard to me even on 50cc the first time I used the Wii Wheel.

So, trying to make the game more strategic is now a complaint...
