New Mario Kart 7 Footage - Analysis
So, here's a breakdown of the latest Mario Kart 7 video (http://www.3dsview.com/2011/10/21/fresh-mario-kart-7-footage/)
There's a lot of interesting things.
First, we have a remake of DS's Luigi Mansion course. Not much new here except what seems to be an extra jump.
Next: Mushroom Gorge is a Retro Track! Fun! I've noticed that there is a bit of displacement with items, and a new type of mushroom to bounce you extra high and give you time to fly with your hang-glider.
Moving on, a Bowser course - looks like an airship. But it's still the typical Castle course, sharp turns and lava.
Then the Hawaii-themed course we've seen. Nothing really changed there, but underwater, if we look closely, we'll notice that tricks are still in from the last game.
Now, a scenic, twisty course. Note the emphasis on Daisy, so it's possible it could be Daisy Village or something. There are a few branching paths; this looks very fun. Also, Shy Guy is a playable character, it seems.
We come to a Mario Circuit or Toad-Circuit course. Not much except a big jump over a bridge and a path over to the left after that to go over another bridge, then more twists and turns.
That's it for me! You may notice other stuff, but I'm done with my reporting. Blablabla conclusion and all that.
