Send Your Friend a Mario Kart 7 Item to Brighten Their Day
Posted by James Newton
Here comes Bullet Bill!
Mario Kart 7 is out next week, and to get you geared up (sorry) Nintendo has revamped the game's official website with new videos, information and social features.
By visiting the items page you can send any of your Facebook friends an item from the series, so why not be the best friend ever and send them a Spiny Shell? We're sure they'd appreciate it.
While you're on Facebook, be sure to Like Nintendo Life to stay up to date with the world of Nintendo. Just don't blue shell us or we're coming for you.

@15 The jet sound was also in Bowser Castle in Mario Kart Wii. Nintendo might make another Bowser Castle and put the sound in it.

@15 @26 I'm pretty sure the blue shell still makes the jet sound, but only after it starts flying.

Whether you're a fan of this type game or not, with all the portability, and the cuteness, and the 3D, and the on-line, and the beautiful setup of the 3DS... I think this is the best handheld game ever. This is Nintendo at its highest form beating the **** out of their competitors.

Oh scrap! I read the headline and thought you could send friends items in game. Didn't realize it was a Face Book fluke. I refuse to join the millions of drones who use Facebook. I strongly disagree with the terms of their privacy policy.
