For the longest time, it appeared as though MarioKart was the uncontested champion of kart racers; however, it was revealed this morning that a new competitor would be entering the arena: Garfield Kart 2 — All You Can Drift. Personally, I don’t see this game posing much of a threat to MarioKart, though Garfield and his cult-like following will certainly send this game’s sales to unprecedented success. Especially with the $80 price tag on MKWorld, I could see consumers start to turn over to Garfield for kart racing fun.
Should Nintendo be worried? Is MarioKart about to face its first true competitor? Please comment your thoughts. (See ESRB teaser video below.)
