Super Mario Kart unlocking session

I purchased Super Mario Kart on the Wii's Virtua Console last night. Tonight I had some time to play the game, so I spent about an hour trying to get first in everything. Here's the session:

Mario Kart 7 to have a wheel attachment

From the WTF Files, Mario Kart 7 appears to come included with a wheel attachment, similar to what was for Mario Kart Wii.

This thing is ugly.



Most of the time, I'm not sure what I would be thinking, but I already know. This thing is going to be terrible, and I won't be using it. It appears as though the game will also indicate whether someone is using the wheel.

Nintendo gets hype

On Twitter earlier this morning, Nintendo posted this new screenshot of Mario Kart 7:


I'm not sure what to take from this other than it's just another screen shot. It does show that there is an option on that course to jump off of two different places.

Dodge this!

Someone on Google Plus uploaded a few pictures related to Mario Kart 7. Nothing looked new until I did a double take on the blue shell.

It's this:


Doesn't look all that bad, right? Well, the big thing is that there are no wings on the blue shell. There's been wings in every blue shell except MK64. So if this is truly the case, then it leads me to believe a couple things about our great friend:

1. You have to dodge through the air. That has to be kind of tricky, right? You can't just activate the glider at any moment; you have to be at a certain point in the race, and then it activates. I hope this is not the case.

2. It will be unavoidable naturally. I said this with Mario Kart Wii, and it turns out that wasn't the case, because you could with a mushroom.
