This track fucking sucked

Not him, but gliding adds a lot of depth to older tracks that didn’t have them before

Gliding is just gimmick of the week

*anti gravity is just gimmick of the week

Absolutely true. Mario Kart Wii was the peak of the series.

I definitely agree. Gliding definitely added to the core experience in a very positive way. Anti-gravity just made stages ugly imo

I bet you never even unlocked Funky Kong you faggot

>MK 7 were big steps in the right direction and this is a fact
>Lets get rid of VS mode so you cant play the tracks you want.
Who the fuck thought that was good idea to scrap VS mode?

the gliders and hover karts were minor additions, the content that matters i.e. the tracks, kart handling, and online play were all improved over wii not to mention the addition of 200cc

I totally disagree, there really isn't much to gliding at all (I never learned the tech to do it optimally in MK8 though). It's not particularly fun to do, and it's slow, unlike the cannons from previous games. To me, it's just a slow, boring break from the race that makes you vulnerable to items, which wastes even more time if you get hit.

Anti-gravity is obviously a gimmick that adds absolutely nothing, but I think the same thing of gliding honestly. MKWii at least added a new style of vehicles that play differently.

Online play was only improved in functionality imo, the way items work in MK8 is completely fucked and is the main reason why I can't enjoy that piece of shit of a game. The new tracks are meh half the time because they're based around either gliding or anti-gravity which are both stupid gimmicks. And kart handling is a step forward and a step back; the karts handle great, but they nerfed bikes so far into the ground that we literally have the opposite of MKWii.

200cc is a genuinely great addition though.

It was the first game with bikes so it's cool

>not playing CTGP
>can still hop on and find players at basically any time
>pretty much every retro kart and a fuckton of new tracks
>200cc, mega clouds, item rain, etc.

The only thing I kind of wish they'd do is actually "balance" all the bikes and karts so it's not just Funky Kong and Daisy on Mach Bikes every fucking game.

Toadette + Magikruiser master race

I haven't played the older ones too much, but from what I have played they weren't too enjoyable

This. Mario kart wii and mario kart ds were the best mario kart games hands down and forever. People even still play the wii version online competetively.

I know this is a Mario Kart thread and I've already ruffled some feathers with my opinion on Wii but this seems like a good place to ask
I've never played CTR before is it worth $30 to get it on switch? I was going to buy it along with the crash ans spyro trilogies but then I realized I could already play the origionals for free on my vita

Zig Forums is so fucking contrarian, it's not even fucking funny anymore.

Stop fucking pretending that double dash anything more than a 6/10, and fuck off with that MKDS ranking.
