Also on the new console from Nintendo comes a new Mario Kart and the anticipation was as well as the expectations very high. The positives: -The Graphics the game has become very good and a real eye-catcher, so that the distances inspire Due to the colorful design and the typical Mario look. - The recorded by an orchestra soundtrack is become very good and some routes have a real earworm potential. - The tracks are very different and the new features, so the glider and the lifting of gravity, ensure an even greater variety more variants wealth. - Another new feature is that its vehicles to build himself together. This is a brilliant idea, because you can adjust his car look and perfect the abilities to be. The scale of vehicle objects is very good. - Both alone, as well as to several, Mario Kart has a lot due to the different game modes such as time trials, Grand Prix, battle, online or Versus race. - New items like the trumpet make the game more balanced (finally can fend blue tank! - You can collect coins again. The more you have the faster you are, but it will be hit or falls down you lose coins. - Much to unlock Negatives: - Gruesome Item Balance! The one on the 2nd or 3rd place gets 3 fungi is just not fair and the intention. Anders rum you get straight to the rear seats only inferior items, so that it is difficult to get back to the front. One can find the coins not only get but also as an item is also very annoying and a no-go. If you already have 10/10 coins at No. 1, it's just not funny when you place a banana gets a coin and the following red tank can not fend off. (- No new game modes, but there is actually enough)
Conclusion: Mario Kart 8 offers many new freedoms, especially by the anti-gravity sections and paragliders operate the routes bigger, wider and much der thorough, as it now is often more than just 1 or 2 channels. The idea with the coins is very good, but unfortunately poorly executed (in my opinion) and often leads to more frustration. The music and the distances are design to fall in love, because it does not fall very significant that there are no new game modes. The new items such as the trumpet a lot of fun, the Item Balance, however atrocious and provides plenty of frustration. I would recommend this game as well as through the karts, bikes and quads internally generated. The game is in my opinion a must for all owners of WiiU because it offers incredibly fun and play time. Especially with friends, it is always a wonderful new adventure, although there are minor errors.
