Hey look, a 1000 post already

Here is some information on Mario Kart 7 you may not know about.

Ugh, why would anyone edit his video so that it sounds like he never takes a breath? It's unbearable.

Yeah, I hate it when people do the "jump-cut" method, but I got used to it from him.

Also- he shared information I knew but I like how he goes further into them and I found out more than what was shared. My one request: Messaging friends on the friend's list in the game. There's a friend icon in the menu shown in the video. Hoping that there'll be an option to message

MKWii had one but were preset phrases- either way, it did help. But hopefully we can type it out this time.

Nintendo is doing a great job with this game and it's connectivity features. And the online mode sounds phenomenal. Can't wait for this brilliant game.

I read somewhere that you can send friends preset messages during a race, so I imagine outside of a race you would be able to, too. Here's hoping.

Hm, I'm skeptical about the kart customization and parts. As much as I enjoyed the 2 DS Zelda games, I never could get into the boat / train customization... it should have been useful, but just ended up being cosmetic and boring. Something tells me these customized parts won't fare any better and will end up as visual elements with little effect on the gameplay.

I heard that some parts actually effect the way it drives. Like bigger wheels to handle off-road stuff better....stuff like that.

I heard that too and I also heard that smaller wheels are better when gliding.

RE: Jump-cut editing in video above

Maybe that's not editing...

Well they had Kart selection on the Wii and DS Mario Karts and that wasn't purely cosmetic. I would assume that all of the items had stats.

Like maybe some of the wheel types give you better offroad but slower top speeds and maybe some of the gliders give you worse handling but don't slow you down as much. Then presumably the same sort of thing with Karts with maybe the cloud one being very light and quick to accelerate but not having much power and having a low top speed.

They already stated that the kart parts affect how the kart performs. It will have the same impact choosing a different kart does in previous games.

This is a very popular thread about a much-anticipated game, so I am not that surprised.

now the big question is whether or not mario kart 7 will have dlc or not

They could if they wanted to.

i hope for a Rainbow Cup where you race on the "best of Rainbow Road" tracks :3

My order:
Raibow Road Double Dash!!
Rainbow Road 64
Rainbow Road MKWii
Rainbow Road SNES

In that order

@Eureka On a few vids I saw when you change the wheel size, glider e.t.c the Speed, Turning and other stats increase and decrease. I'll try to find a vid...

I hope I never have to revisit Rainbow Road 64. MKDS and DD had the best RR's, but they had the best everything.

DS's seemed boring...lol
I just liked 64's cause it was long and relaxing or whatever. xD

i agree @eureka 64 had some of the best courses

I really realy really disliked MKDS's Rainbow Road. That one loop. Getting hit with an item on that loop was doubly annoying since you automatically fell off the track. And I got hit a lot lol. >.>

My favorites would have to be MKWii's nd Double Dash's. I really don't like the the SNES or DS ones and N64's was okay, if only for the shorcuts. But I wouldn't mind having a cup with MKWii, MKDD, N64, and SNES in it. As long as the DS one isn't included, i'll be b happy. I don't really remember the GBA one if there was one(?)
