So I got the Zelda OOT 3DS bundle for my birthday (2 weeks ago) and decided to pick up MK7 to give me something else to play so I don't get burnt out on Zelda. I loved the older MK games (especially SNES, N64 and Wii) but for some reason I just can't find myself falling for MK7 in the same way...
It feels like Nintendo replaced any sort of skill requirements with the randomness of the item slots when it comes to winning. Be in the lead for 2 1/2 laps and then the guy in 5th gets a blue shell and you suddenly lost your position. I don't remember the blue shell seeming quite as OP in the older entries (except maybe N64)
Otherwise the game seems good. I do enjoy the level designs + the selection in retro courses that were brought back (Would've also liked N64 Rainbow Road ), the graphics are really good and the options for cart custimization are good also.. but I just don't like that sometimes it seems as though you would be better off cheesing the race by sitting back in 5th-8th for 2 rounds and then move in for a win after you getting something nice off the slots.
Anyone else feel like the game can be quite frustrating at times? I like to think I am not alone, RL friends seem to go on about how great it is and say "U MAD BRO?" if I even mention it to them -.-
