While I am personally excited for a new Mario Kart after 10ish years, I am slightly skeptical of the quality of the gameplay, as it seems a little cartoony, a little bit like Super Mario Strikers, where the game is fun for like 2 weeks then no one plays it ever again. What do y’all think?

    I personally can’t wait. I have an OLED and MK8D but just didn’t play it enough due to life getting in the way. This has me beyond excited to play it. It’ll be nice to get into a game with my fiance from the start especially because she plays basically only animal crossing.

    I think it’s cool. Just another Mario kart game. Updated graphics and world exploring is neat. I would be loving this game if I was 10. In my thirties? Nah. $$$

    Looks like some of the biggest changes the series has ever seen. I’m excited for it, but like many others, not excited enough for the price they are asking right now.

        You can’t expect prices to never increase. That’s not realistic. It sounds like small budget or free games are more your speed.

            Lol! I’m not a Nintendo shill. I rarely play Nintendo. Priorities change in life and that means sometimes changing up how you do things. The Switch 2 fits into my family picture.

            It just sounds like you’re a broke little boy that can’t afford to play video games anymore. You could always save for a few months. Maybe find a better job that pays more? Be better professionally.

    As a Forza Horizon fan my curiosity is piqued. I like being able to shift vibes from an intense race to just cruising around the landscape, and Mario Kart is a very different style of racing so it’d be a very different experience

    I don’t see the appeal beyond for children.

    Nintendo reminds me of Disney more and more, pulling out the same old tired franchises for increasingly cynical cash grabs that prey on people’s nostalgia.

    I’m pretty excited for it I enjoy Mario Kart games,I don’t play/like any other type of racing games so being able to drive to the next course is new to me and looks kinda fun.
