Mario Kart 7 Has You Soaring Through The Air And Diving Underwater

looks the same as mario kart ds....why do i need a 3ds to play something I already own.

@Abendlaender: I heard it too. Called my wife in to make sure I wasn't nuts. She concurs.

Wait what? Cockpit view?

That sign loves sports. It told me so.

Fuck the haters. I'm totally excited for this. I bet the online play will be a ton of fun.

hey nintendo. stop making the same 5 games over and over and over and over again. or just re-releasing re-released versions of games that were re-released 5-12 years ago (animal crossing, zelda, starfox etc) you need to evolve.

sincerely, a former fan (who hasnt been a fan since the n64 era)

Time to get that racing wheel, Vinny.

looks like a known quantity.

This is the first time that a game made me feel like a kid again. I so want this!

And it looks like...much of the same.

Which is great for fans, I guess :P

Meh, my favorite Mario Kart was the SNES one. I played the DS one too for, like, 1 week, then completely forgot about it...

Don't mistake me, it is a good looking and fun game. But simply not for me..

Is Mario Kart Nintendo's Madden?

Mario Kart doesn't come out every year like Madden.

Every system is hardly comparable to a yearly product :P

"Let the haters hate"...

But I already bought this game, Twice. For Wii and DS lite.

oh my god. Cockpit view, you can drive through water hazards, and fire flower! all kinds of hells yes

A veritable cornucopia of hell yesses. This MK looks a bit faster than prequels on the Wii and Gamecube, but this could be my imagination. Regardless, I'm excited and chalking this up as one of five games I always require to be considered worth buying prior to investing in a new console / PC upgrade. Ocarina of Time's another. C'mon Nintendo, 3 more till shutting up and taking my monies.

Hang gliders? this clearly changes everything.

Shame on Nintendo for having a successful game series which every developer strives for...

I was waiting for mario to erase the ink splat off with that mushroom.

Some really cool stuff. I'm surprised.

Really? Mario Kart is going the way of Sonic for me.
