Mario Kart is one of my favorite series. I'm getting this day one.
I will have to pay $228.38 to play this game.
Fucking worth it.
I like the community option. Perhaps we can make one for this forum.

Dec 2nd?
I'm getting a 3DS before Christmas then, just for this.
This is a definite release day get for me as well.
The Nintendo Power issue of November reveals two new characters.
[spoiler]Wiggler
AND...
...the Queen Bee of Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2.
http://www.nintendolife.com/forums/3ds/mario_kart_7?start=1060 (http://www.nintendolife.com/forums/3ds/mario_kart_7?start=1060)
Queen Bee for Smash Bros. 4.[/spoiler]
Chris, spoiler that NOW. I seriously didn't want to know about the new characters, and was doing a good job of making myself oblivious to most MK7 updates.... but you just blew it, there.
Well, I guess now that I forever know this I have to comment:
[spoiler]Of all the possible choices, THOSE two?
Wiggler. First of all, Maple Treeway is in MK7. There are Wigglers there. Huge ones. Now we get a resized smaller one driving? That's just silly.
Queen Bee isn't even significant in anything at all. And they cut her to 1% of her original size. I don't understand this.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]If it makes you feel any better, those two seem to be available from the start.
Also, Wiggler has different sizes. Hell, there was one in Mario Super Sluggers. There's no argument to that.
But as for Queen Bee...it's a new idea.[/spoiler]

Really, it's just a general Mario Kart 7 thread. Anything about the game can be readily discussed, including speculation and reveals. You should expect people to post any and all news regarding an anticipated game.

Nope. That's a demand and a complaint, not a request.
I'm not really too into Mario Kart, so this is a no for me.
I like how everyone would rather yell at me in this thread than discuss Mario Kart 7.
Really sickens me how this is what it's become.
You're the one that got sand in his vagina over Mario Kart spoilers.
It's sort of more interesting to discuss that then Mario Kart 7, seeing as we've already discussed practically everything that's new regarding the game either in other threads or this one.

What Retro courses do you want to see again?

What Retro courses do you want to see again?
But Retro already said they were adding a DKCR track.
To be honest, characters aren't such a big deal in a racing game, but those additions bother me. The Mario series has been lackluster in terms of characters for these lately. Why not just bite the pullet and add Kirby characters or something? What's next, a Goomba as a playable racer?

Just don't use those characters and let more open-minded people have fun.
Metal Mario and Queen Bee?
This game better be orgasmiclly amazing to have such horrible character ideas. (Though, even if it is still just good, I wouldn't care in the end, I just care now)
Wiggler, I'm surprised it hasn't been in MK Sooner. Laquitu, Awesome idea in my opinion. But will a Laquitu pick up a Laquitu racer when he falls off the edge? Or will a Laquitu hold up a "UR GOIN DA RONG WAY MAKE UTURN!" When a Laquitu racer is going the wrong way?
Also, will Metal Mario have a voice actor? Or will he just make a bunch of clanking noises? Or will he be the same as Mario? Or will it be the same as Mario, except add a metallic echo or something?

I just wish they'd stop milking the SNES courses that look like poop and are boring minute-long races when put in the newer games.
Well, Nintendo Power kindly gave me info about the courses for four cups: two new cups and two retro cups so far (it should be noted that the retro tracks have scrambled eras, like a Wii track before a DS track). 14 tracks are here in the tag:
[spoiler]Mushroom Cup:
Toad Circuit
Daisy Hills
Flower Cup:
Wuhu Loop
Mario Circuit
Music Park
Rock Rock Mountain
Shell Cup:
Luigi's Raceway (N64)
Bowser Castle 1 (GBA)
Mushroom Gorge (Wii)
Luigi's Mansion (DS)
Banana Cup:
Koopa Beach (N64)
Mario Circuit 2 (SNES)
Coconut Mall (Wii) oh yes
Waluigi's Pinball (DS)[/spoiler]

Yeah, this. They're all flat and pretty much featureless, as with the GBA ones, but the good news is they're running out of usable tracks. They can't use any with the jumping-over-the-track feature because of the way the jumps worked and... at least that's what I thought until I saw Mario Circuit 2 (SNES) was in there. That has a track jump, and I want to see how they do that. I remember it was kind of awkward with the flatness of the track. I'm assuming they'll put a full dash panel ramp in instead of those weird flat jump-panel things we used to have.
Confirmed retro courses:
[spoiler]Luigi's Raceway (N64) -ehh, okay.
Bowser's Castle 1 (GBA): Oh god why? This was one of the smallest courses in the game; you can do all 3 laps in under 45 seconds. And it's boring. Just flat land with a few lava jumps. I hope they add to it some.
Mushroom Gorge (Wii): I liked this one. Then again I liked most of the Wii's tracks. But I'm okay with this one completely.
Luigi's Mansion (DS): Oh man walking trees.
Koopa Troopa Beach (N64): are they keeping that obvious-but-slightly-tricky-to-do behind the waterfall shortcut?
Mario Circuit 2 (SNES): I commented on this earlier. Ugh.
Coconut Mall (Wii): I'm okay with this.
Waluigi Pinball (DS): I'm also okay with this.
[/spoiler]
Also Chris, they were out of era order in the Wii too, since there were more than 4 old games to choose from (Once each cup couldn't have one from every game, there's no reason to do that) so I'm completely unsurprised.
I love MC2

:[
I've been trying to unlock everything on Mario Kart Wii, so now I'm really psyched for 7, so I guess I should go ahead and give my opinion on what's happening. Also, warning: if there's a SINGLE THING in the game you don't want spoiled, don't read on.
[spoiler]According to the official site, the characters so far are:
[spoiler]Mario
Luigi
Peach
Yoshi
Bowser
Donkey Kong
Toad
Koopa Troopa
Daisy
Wario
Rosalina
Shy Guy
Metal Mario
Lakitu
Honey Queen
Wiggler[/spoiler]
Out of the four new characters, I'm actually fairly balanced. I don't like that Honey Queen is in when Rosalina is already the perfect and only needed Galaxy rep, I'm totally indifferent to Metal Mario and Wiggler, and I actually really like that Lakitu made it in.
As for the other characters, I'm really glad Shy Guy's coming back from the DS game, but I'll be severely ticked off if this is the final list. Many of the characters that have not been confirmed to come back, like Waluigi, Toadette, and my THREE FAVORITE CHARACTERS, Diddy Kong, Bowser Jr., and King Boo, have grown on me as staples of the series, and I would be very disappointed if they didn't come back just because someone wanted another Galaxy rep. Furthermore, if any more newcomers appear, I hope they're characters I'd actually want such as Professor E. Gadd, Toadsworth, or even Fawful, instead of another generic enemy like "Goomba" (although, if a Penguin makes it as playable, I'm gonna be all over that).
As for the tracks, apparently IGN has listed ALL of them (http://ds.ign.com/articles/121/1213157p1.html), and unlike the character list, I REALLY like this line-up. Dino Dino Jungle and Daisy Cruiser's returns alone are making me really excited, and I'm also glad Luigi's Mansion is back (although I would have preferred a new level based on the game, as I never liked the fact that most of the track isn't actually IN the mansion). As for the new courses, holy crap are they awesome. The Wuhu Island gets two tracks, the musical level looks cool, there's one course that looks like it's straight out of F-Zero, and, in my opinion, the Special Cup has NEVER looked so good; heck, I'd say NO Cup has ever looked so good.[/spoiler]
Well, IGN reviewed it and gave it a 9/10.
The good news: it has the best online from any Nintendo game ever (doesn't sound impressive at first, until you remember that the last two Mario Karts weren't that bad online) and the optional motion-controlled first-person mode works great.
The bad news: balloon battle now works on points instead of stock, which is stupid, and the currently revealed roster is the ENTIRE roster, meaning that Waluigi, Diddy Kong, Bowser Jr., King Boo, Toadette, and several other recurring characters are not in the game (because Nintendo apparently thought Wiggler, Metal Mario, and a bee were better choices).

ZOMG, I could buy a whole candy bar for that! Maybe even three or four gumballs! <_<;;
>no Toadette
This disappointed me. Now I can't abuse off-road anymore :(
I think the character selection is fine. The new battle mode kind of makes me sad, but it'll probably be fun anyway, just not Mario Kart 64 fun.
I stat it up, and automatically go with a Kart that has high acceleration and handling to snake better and what not.
No snaking, oh well.
It seems the only real way to gain an advantage in a race is to know shortcuts, boost of of all the jumps, and get 10 coins as quick as possible. Which isn't that bad.
A lot of people complained about the character selection and how they didn't change much from previous Mario Kart games, but the underwater and gliding are very fun and interesting game mechanics. And i have Rosalina, so i don't care if Dry Bones was replaced by Koopa.
Playing online is fun, the community ting is cool, but i haven't really tried it out. The fact that you only need one friend code for every game is a step forward from the DS' system. I think you can play races with no items, which will be very fun. Overall a nice game, but they removed some things that shouldn't have been removed. I never played MK Wii, jumping directly from DS to 3DS, so i'm not sure how Mario Kart Wii played.
Shall I go ahead and make the NSFCD Community?
CC is 21-1698-9400-3968
This community shall have all items at 150CC.
Yeah, have the game myself. Only 50% complete. Mushroom, Flower, Shell, and Banana cups 100%ed. So I have Shy Guy, Daisy, Honey Bee, and Wario unlocked. I do like the little differences between each part but it doesn't add THAT much. The gliding and diving are fun, which is nice. Also, not as OP as the bikes in Kart Wii. The character selection is kind of lame yes, but it's not too big a deal. When we were using Baby Daisy and Dry Bowser, we were out of ideas. I'm liking a lot of the new cups, but we'll see second half. Finally, Blue shell is STILL intercourse ing cheap (Nintendo, GET RID OF THIS), and the AI still rubberbands at 150cc, but it's not quite as bad as DS or Wii.
The game is very awesome. Its online is so smooth and pretty enjoyable with absolutely no lag.
oh hey more blue shell whining
gotta love it.
This game is fantastic. I love how Shy Guy is part of the actual roster now. He's my dude.
As for the online, I'm surprised at how robust it is. The whole game is very nice looking, too.

Also, 95% of my non-first place finishes are the result of a Blue Shell, so yeah, I shall ninny about them til the cows come home.
Also, this happened:
Mirror class Lightning Cup, Rainbow Road SNES:
Leading the GP by 8 points over Bowser. Final lap
Get knocked off by Bowser in a narrow section. Respawn. Get hit by a starman powered racer. Fall off AGAIN. Fall to sixth place. Respawn and get hit by ANOTHER starman powered racer. FALL TO 8th. Barely come in 7th to win the GP. FUCK YOU GAME YOU CHEATING PIECE OF SHIT.

1) Your connection probably sucks.
2) The game probably knows you hate it, so it hates your guts too.
3) LOL.
I didn't have any connection problems either. Seemed to work perfectly fine.
Sounds like that last part of your post was just plain bad luck.
As far as Blue Shells go, they seemed more balanced in MK64. They were far rarer than Lightning. On the other hand, it was harder to make a comeback in MK64. Either that or its just me being an idiot trying to play MK64 on an HDTV.

So yeah, this is entirely Nintendo's problem. As per usual I do everything I need to but they can't build a service that intercourse ing works.
Holy SHIT it connected! God darn, it only took THREE HOURS to do so. God darn...
Check your NAT settings, bro.
Seems to be joining rooms with a bit more regularity now, but still kicks me off for no reason from time to time. *sigh* Guess it'll have to do before Nintendo comes out with the WiiU and once again promises good multiplayer and then fail.

Nayr, try stopping by a Mcdonalds or Starbucks and play a game or two. Experiment a bit.
Dude, I'm first to say when Nintendo's online infrastructure sucks, but in this case it's pretty decent. No time at all on my end and my wireless is poop.
its not your router's fault that nintendo ignores standards and only supports a handful of specific setups.

Got Mario Kart 7
Joined Super's community.
Yeah.
Metal Mario seems pretty great if you use the right customizations. Slim wheels+white body balance out his handling and accel/speed. His weight is decent by default. Probably going use him the most.
Seems like what kart pieces you unlock when you get coins are completely random. I still don't have certain parts that others unlocked in the very beginning, while I have parts that people with more coins than me don't have yet.
Anyone else notice this?

They are random, at least the coin ones. There are a few special pieces you only unlock a certain way, but all the coin ones are random.

Seems like what kart pieces you unlock when you get coins are completely random. I still don't have certain parts that others unlocked in the very beginning, while I have parts that people with more coins than me don't have yet.
Anyone else notice this?
Way ahead of you.

Only "special" one I got so far was from getting a star in all Grand Prix cups. I want more gliders besides the darn flower. :|

Yeah, gliders take forever, probably because there aren't as many.
Gliders are cosmetic awards that have almost no overall changes to a kart's stats.

Swooper changes my stats. Slightly, but meh, they aren't purely cosmetic.

I unlocked a new glider today: the Paraglider.
...it is statistically
identical to the Flower Glider. I'm so disappointed.
I'm waiting for the Swooper, since that wins the appearance contest for me.

Anything that isn't the default glider and the demon glider-thing won't change the stats.
So I'll let you guys decide for me.
Do I go out and buy MK7 tomorrow?

It can be considered a killer app besides Super Mario 3D Land. It's really worth the buy.

Yeah, Swooper definitely changes my stats. I'm watching it happen.

Swooper is a kiddy toy. I was talking about the other one.

There's a pretty subtle difference apparently. Parasol/Flower handles better in the sky but is slower. (http://www.gamefaqs.com/3ds/997822-mario-kart-7/faqs/63500)
Just finished Mirror. Shy Guy and Yoshi always seemed to be a big problem.

That's... interesting. But there's still only three different stat combinations among all the gliders, which means some are still identical... according to that table.
Oh, and @Riddler: Get it, it's worth it.
so i got mk7. now what
why the intercourse is koopa troopa so fast and why the intercourse can't i win any 150cc tournaments without him passing me at the last second?

I thought that was just me... I guess Koopa really is a broken monster of an AI...

Really? That never happened to me.

Every 150cc has Koopa blowing all the other AI out of the water and giving me more than a little challenge. They could just be randomized, but I find it a bit odd that Riddler's first go around also had Koopa as the tough racer.
It's Bowser for me. Bastard's always competing with me for first in 150cc
It's literally always Koopa.
In every Mario Kart game, it's always been DK for me. He is an poop hole.

If it bothers you so much, play as Koopa Troopa.
I've always had trouble doing 150cc against DK.

I always play.
But I haven't done a single race in the community yet because no one ever uses it when I'm playing online.
Just unlocked my first two new gliders today. One from streetpass at my college, one from collecting 1000 coins. Paraglider and Peach's Parasol-thing. I definitely love the paraglider (parachute). Less weight better acceleration than the Super Glider (hang-glider). Peach's parasol has the same stats as the paraglider, but looks lame.
I still want the darn Swooper glider and haven't gotten it. It seems like everyone has it but me, even if they have less coins. The random unlocking thing kind of annoys me.
Especially when as you get more coins, the unlocking thresholds get farther and farther apart. It's gonna take forever for me to get my Swooper. ;-;
SWOOPER MASTER RACE
We need to plan some MK7-ness.
yes
