Mario Kart 7 was released almost simultaneously around the world at the beginning of December as a strategy to attract gamers Nintendo before a holiday. This strategy seems to work because sales for this game were very positive response. But what a great sales comparable to the quality offered by this game?

Mario Kart 7 offers 32 tracks for gamers to race. There are 16 tracks exclusive to the original Mario Kart tracks 7 and 16 again a remake of the classic tracks Mario Kart previous versions. Interestingly, long tracks are not just cosmetic updates were given on the outward appearance but also given a few changes to the gameplay system utilizing a new version of Mario Kart 7 at this time. As a result you Mario Kart veterans may have memorized every track a classic, but the differences are minor but vital will force you to change race strategy.

So what is a new gameplay system offered by Mario Kart 7? Quite a lot, let’s take a surgical one by one. Mario Kart 7 is the first game in the Mario Kart series that allows gamers to fiddle with the kart is going to be used. You can choose a kart that you want to use, the wheels are installed, until the glider to fly. Each person would have their own style of racing in accordance with the tracks that will be crossed. Do you rely more on Drift? Whether you prefer a nice controlled kart? Please customize your kart at will.

The second extra is coin system which had long been absent (from the beginning was introduced in Super Mario Kart, he never appears again). This time they appear to have additional functions in addition to your racing speed as well as useful as currency. If you collect enough coins then a part-new parts to customize your kart going to open. This makes the coins become one of the vital elements of gameplay both in racing and outside racing.

You’re tired of racing on land? What if I say that here you can fight in three arenas: land, sea, and water! First gap in the game Mario Kart and threatened synonymous with falling behind in the race. Now some level it gives you a chance to find a shortcut via the underwater terrain. There is also the level of the majority to force you berbalap in water, where the movement is very different course berbalap above the ground so that once again a kart customization is crucial.

This quarter the three currencies with the concept of the glider to fly. There is a special glider layangmu extending the time in the air, makes it difficult attacked (or attacking your enemies) yet as a consequence glide through the air slower than the fast collided on the ground. Amazing how the opening of two new additional lines under water and above the air berbalap totally change the dynamics in this game.

System drifting in Mario Kart DS has been changed in this game. Now you no longer need to hold the R button, pressing the joystick right and left brutally to enable drifting abilities. Simply push the R button while directing control of your kart is enough. It gives a realistic impression and make people who hate the system was drifting so addicted to continuous wear.

Nintendo has always been left behind by Sony and Microsoft in terms of online services, and Mario Kart 7 too.
