Review Family Kart 3D (3DS eShop)
A familiar feeling
Fresh off the court from the surprisingly fun Family Tennis 3D, the world's most competitive family returns to the 3DS eShop to hit the racetrack in Family Kart 3D.

Sounds like Shovelware Game of the Year. But maybe it won't be.
Edit: I change my mind. After looking up some stuff about this game, it looks pretty cool, and I don't mind the anime art style myself.

My only gripe with it is that the ice stages are a bit too slippy, but it's still something pros shouldn't have much of an issue with.
