Mario Kart 7 (Nintendo 3DS)

Mario Kart fans rejoice! (If you have a 3DS that is...) For one of the best installments in the Mario Kart franchise has arrived!

While the last Mario Kart game, (Mario Kart Wii.), wasn't one of the greatest installments...The newest Mario Kart, is definitely one of the best. Including new tracks and old from different Mario Kart games, this game has a good nostalgic feel. And the 3D is amazing in the game!

Mario Kart 7 also takes advantage of the 3DS' Gyroscope, allowing you to go into a first person view and steer by turning your Nintendo 3DS, (Don't worry, even in public you won't look THAT dumb), but it really is a good feature to the game. It makes you feel like your actually in the game, especially when you have the 3D on. Mario Kart 7 also has an arsenal of new characters, from Metal Mario all the way to Shy Guy. (It's about time you can play as him without having to use an Action Replay! ;) ) This game has a plethera of characters, which you can unlock by winning all of the 150cc races. You can even play as your Mii! (Just like in Mario Kart Wii!)

The Kart Kustomization is a lot of fun too, you can change your Kart to fit your style and to make you faster, handle better, or have the best acceleration there is!

While the power ups are pretty much the same, they have the one that everyone hates...The blue Shell. Impossible to dodge...Makes you wanna smash your 3DS into the ground...But that's beside the point, the one power up I like but rarely get, is the Lucky 7. 7 Power Ups, 7 ways to screw up your opponents' lives. Unfortunately if you were to run into someone with the star they themselves would get the power up...
