Mario Kart 3DS: A Hands-On-experience:
06/08/11 at 12:58:51

Its a decent read. It provides good insight to the game by a guy who's played the demo:

http://geek.pikimal.com/2011/06/08/mario-kart-3ds-hands-on-impressions/

---

Key Points:

Steering is exclusively with the analog stick
Movement feels a lot like MK-Wii

Players can choose (in addition to character): Kart Type, Wheel Type, and Glider Type
(still no word on whether wheel and glider affect stats)

You will be able to control pitch & yaw of the glider (similar to jumps on F-Zero X I believe)
Controlling the Glider will be done by the 3DS Slider
Glider will be activated by a certain type of booster

Underwater will control like you were on ground
However, falling speed is slower (like if you were in water, duh)

MTs are MK-Wii style
AKA: just holding R (tighter turns DO get faster MTs)
There is no Automatic/Manual option, its just one style.
There will be NO motorcycles in this game

Thoughts?

Yeah, bikes were a nice feature. Bikes have more possibilities than a kart.

That's why Moto GP > F1. Grin

I just hope that the glider won't be affect the gameplay much. If they do, then I bet shrooming before a certain point (where the glider pops out) would be very usefull to fly longer. Undecided

And then it's not a MK for me anymore...

If there weren't bikes in MKWii than the community wouldn't be as big as today.
Bikes were something completely new and no one ever thought of that.

I know the older ones don't like MKW because of bikes and other things, but no one can deny the success from MKWii and their bikes. Grin

What I wanted to say is: For the new generation, bikes are normal in a MKART.
And maybe glider and new stuff will be too soon..

Still it doesn't make sens to make bikes the best in a marioKART game. It's like if you watch Nascar on tv and you see F1 cars or ATVs Smiley

....what? Bikes did not make the community. WiFi made the community. Bikes did not make MKW "successful" (which I disagree with, I think MKW was a disgrace to the MK series).

WiFi kept MKW afloat.

F1 owns :'(

To be honest I prefer MK without the bikes, as it will make it more skill based. I mean yeah bikes were fun to use, but the thing with MKWII was that almost everybody could get decent at it because just pressing the whelie button a few times down a straight is not very skillful. The main skill in MKWII was just alligning properly tbh.

According to what I saw on the MKDS board it is a lot harder to snake on the 3DS so in that sense the MKwii MT system is not actually too bad
