Mario Kart 7 (Community Code 44-1952-2691-6546)

[Viiper]

well I have a lot of first impressions after my shot in the mushroom cup.

Honestly, game play wise this game is like a blast from the past with new gimmicks to make itself look fresh, I've yet to completely tinker around with the kart customization but it seems A-OK for now. And I'm saying that in a really positive way. However I'd avoid playing it in first person mode since my huge gripe with that is that the motion controls in the 3ds doesn't really give it any justice what so ever, I find it more of a hindrance while playing it and it seems like you have no way of disabling it. However the only positive thing in First Person mode is the 3D effect and to be honest, that looks amazing in my opinion.

I've yet to try the communities or online multiplayer.

That's reassuring. How is ghost racing? Can you still pick up ghosts for racing at any time?

again, I've yet to try out the online play. However I will look into that now that you bring it up.

Super, thanks!

I'm also curious if any of the tracks are locked out from Multiplayer in this game like in Mario Kart DS. I remember using an Action Replay so you could select Waluigi Pinball and Airship.

[Azure-Tranquility]

For some reason, the roster's lack of Waluigi doesn't bother me.

Maybe it was time for a change. Mario Kart 7 feels fresh, and a bit faster than previous entries, though that may just be me.

So upon further examination I was able to disable the motion controls in the game by going to the mario kart channel while editing my mii.

I don't understand why they couldn't just make a settings menu on the main menu but okay.

[Viiper]

Wait so the option to turn off motion controls are in the Mario Kart Channel menu?

[DioShiba]

yup, which is stupid to begin with since I'd rather access the settings straight from the main menu.

dumb, dumb, really dumb move on the developer's part. But I suppose that doesn't matter much to the actual game.

I'm just glad there are ways you can get rid of it. I need my real controls!

[Gold]

So is there a tSR community yet?

[Gwen]

So is there a tSR community yet?

I would get this, but I now have to find a new car :F

[DioShiba]

I don't know who has a 3ds or not but otherwise I would be willing to make a community for TSR if no one else will

It all depends on what we want to do, like say coin runners, battle, vs., etc.

[Yo-Yo Boy]

I have a 3DS, and if i don't get Mario Kart 7 for christmas I'll buy it.

[Azure-Tranquility]

If there is a community I don't think I could tolerate much more than standard races and battle mode.

[DioShiba]

hi I'm reposting this from the 3ds friend code topic in case you don't want to go there.

Lets get some Mario Kart 7 Communities going here (I made two of them since I don't necessarily know what people wants to play here.)
TSR Race (100cc) - 22-4540-8932-9999
TSR Battle (Balloon Battle) - 05-0208-1707-5669

[DioShiba]

Somehow I managed to beat nearly everyone else on Maka Wuhu using this shortcut in 01:18.506.

Just gotta say I feel bad for people who don't know about this.
