Mario Kart is the defining game of my childhood. I bought this system a few months ago in anticipation for this single game, and I'm so, so disappointed. I popped the game in last night and played the Circuit races and was so excited - the characters, graphics, new weapons! Then, I turned my attention to Battle Mode - where most of the longevity and love of the game came from. What a disaster! I've heard other reviewers say this - but after a few tries, I'll never play Battle Mode again. It's boring. And, repetitive. And, such an incredible disappointment. To those who prefer to race instead of battle, maybe you won't understand. But, it's similar to removing tracks for races and putting you in an arena. Makes no sense, right? Then, why would the opposite make sense? The shame! Nintendo, why??
