Here is a plugin that me and @Fishguy6564 have made. It'll show a speedometer at the bottom right corner, you can choose between km/h or mph. Hope you like it! :)

How to use:

1. Install NTR CFW (you can use BootNTR Selector).
2. Download the zip included with this post.
3. Extract one of the plg files (km/h or mph) to SD:/plugin/0004000000030X00 (Replace X with 6->JPN, 7->EUR,8->USA).
4. Launch NTR CFW and then Mario Kart 7, you should see the speedometer when a race starts.

Without trying this yet, I'm curious how the numbers work. Is this just a speed value that the game stores that you're printing, or is there some kind of math going on? Is it actually an established measurement like mph or km/h according to the game? Are you converting the values, or just printing a different unit after the number?

I think you should add a version with Miles per hour, because a lot of people uses it instead of kilometers per hour.
I'm not one, but some people would appreciate :P

Interestingly enough, there is an actual float in the memory that stores the km/h, this plugin just prints it.

I forgot to say it, but the download includes both versions :P

@PabloMK7 Trying this now, it looks great, but seems like it might not have been tested with 3D enabled? Currently, it's only being displayed on the left framebuffer. With 3D enabled, it has that awkward simultaneous on-off look because the right eye isn't seeing it at all. Otherwise, a lot of fun.

Fixing that right now.

EDIT: Fixed.

very cool!

i guess it is not a coincidence that the top speed is 99km/h?
does the game limit us to that? (in 150cc?)
what is the speed limit for 50 and 100cc?

    So true
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @K3Nv2 Snow Day is pretty fun. My only bitch would be the camera controls, when you move around, say down, you have to move the right stick left or right to get camera to turn and get your view, other than that I like it so far.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    I bet most people at the time still watched it in black and white
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
