Honey Queen looks like Dry Bones compared to Rosalina.

[QUOTE=GeekyDad;33023472]Fist bump?

Did the same, but my wife doesn't know. Her original DS phat is literally falling apart, held together pretty much by the wires at this point. She won't give it up, and I just didn't see the point in getting her another DS. She can still play all her games on her new 3DS, turn the 3D off (which she hates from playing on my system), and we can enjoy MK7 together (hopefully).[/QUOTE]

*Fist bump*

She wanted me to wait until xmas to give it to her. I said "Ok, but i'm getting it on the 4th. If you want me to play it for 20 days before you, and have an advantage when you finally do get it, then that's ok with me". Now she wants it on the 4th.

[QUOTE=udivision;33024602]Honey Queen looks like Dry Bones compared to Rosalina.[/QUOTE]
whatever. keep going on about the female characters weight like it does anything other than make you look a bit of a misogynist.

because whether you're being serious about women's weight, or joking about women's weight doesn't really change how you come across. a handful of short replies from me is hardly 'serious'. you should see the length of my posts when i'm really up to speed.

Shhhh. You guys hear that? It's the sound of you guys being quiet and leaving poor Rosalina alone.

She's a heavy character in MKWii, and who cares. She's the best character ever!

Anyone who disagrees is oblivious to facts!!

No, I think it does. Especially when it's a cartoon video game character who doesn't have a weight problem and it's being played for laughs, i.e. the thread title.

EDIT: Okay, this conversation probably shouldn't be going on...

Rosalina actually sat on Waluigi killing him.

For those interested, the famous mini Wheel will be available in Europe on launch day.

[QUOTE]28th November, 2011 – With the ability to drive underwater and glide through the air to find new shortcuts, all-new kart customisation options, online play, brand new and enhanced retro courses and fun new race modes, Mario Kart 7 for Nintendo 3DS offers something for every racing fan when it launches across Europe on 2nd December 2011.

Mario Kart 7 gives you the chance to make the Mario Kart experience your own, in a customised kart made to your specifications. Players can race on land, underwater or through the air using new abilities which have been introduced especially for Mario Kart 7. The gliders automatically deploy when you launch off a ramp, allowing you to fly through the air, or use the new ability to drive through water, giving you new ways to overtake your rivals no matter what the terrain.

Nintendo is also introducing four new characters to the Mario Kart roster. Play as Metal Mario, first seen in Super Mario 64 (Nintendo 64), Lakitu, Honey Queen, the queen who ruled over the bees in the Super Mario Galaxy (Wii) series, and Wiggler, Mario’s iconic caterpillar-like enemy. In true Mario Kart tradition you can also choose to race as one of your favourite Mario characters, with popular characters making a special comeback in Mario Kart 7, including Rosalina, Daisy and Mario’s rival Wario. In addition to these well-known characters, players can use their own personal Mii character as their racer. This large choice allows you to choose your favourite character and tweak your kart to create a tailor-made racing experience.

Mario Kart fans will enjoy mastering the 16 new courses, including Piranha Plant Pipeway, Wario’s Galleon, Koopa City and Wuhu Mountain Loop, a rally course where you can race along an ‘A to B’ route, rather than the traditional three-lap route. Mario Kart 7 also includes some retro courses that fans will recognise, such as Mushroom Gorge from the Wii version and Luigi’s Mansion from the Nintendo DS version. Fans can look forward to mastering 32 courses, made up of 16 new and 16 remastered retro courses returning in Mario Kart 7, including shortcuts and features that utilise the new abilities to glide through the air and drive underwater.

Players can also unlock parts for their karts by collecting coins during their races. Each customisable part gives you a competitive edge when racing in the different environments. Build your kart from a combination of frame, wheels and - for the first time - glider. A selection of frames such as Growlster, Pipe Frame, Tiny Tug, Cact-X and Barrel Train can be added to a selection of wheels such as Slim, Slick, Wooden or Mushroom wheels to gain an edge over the varying terrains on the courses.

Mario Kart 7 brings together racers worldwide; simply connect wirelessly - locally or over the Internet - to race against friends and Mario Kart fans from across the globe. You can even construct your own Communities and define your racing mode and items, so you can play your way against your friends.

The StreetPass functionality of the Nintendo 3DS system allows you to exchange data from your game with other players, including: player profiles that show VS Rating, win and loss records and the number of coins you’ve collected throughout the game. With SpotPass enabled you can receive a variety of ghost data to race against, even allowing for a full eight-player race between you and the ghost data. All of these data will be available to players via the Mario Kart Channel within the game for all StreetPass and SpotPass users.

Other new features you can look forward to include the Lucky Seven item, a brand new power-up that grants the driver a ring of seven different items: the Green Shell, Red Shell, Dash Mushroom, Banana, Bob-omb, Super Star and Blooper. With this power-up you now have seven different items at your disposal, and you have control over which to use. Other new items available for the first time in Mario Kart 7 include the Fire Flower that allows you to throw balls of blazing fire at your challengers and the Super Leaf, which makes the fan favourite Tanooki Tail appear on the back of your kart to knock other drivers and items out of the way.

As an extra treat for Mario fans, if you pre-order a copy of Mario Kart 7 you can receive an exclusive Nintendo 3DS pouch with a Mario Kart 7 design. To claim your pre-order pouch simply place an in-store pre-order at GAME or Gamestation (note that this offer is not available for online pre-orders.)

[B]Mario Kart 7 players can also purchase a Mario Kart 7 Wheel accessory for use with their Nintendo 3DS system. The Mario Kart 7 Wheel is sold separately to the game and will also be in stores across the UK and Ireland from 2nd December.[/B]

For more information about this and other features, you can now visit the official Mario Kart 7 website at [url]http://www.nintendo.co.uk/mariokart7[/url]. Visit the Items section and challenge your friends ahead of the game's release![/QUOTE]

So has anyone tried out that official Mario Kart 7 Wheel that's coming out in mid-December? (EU release: December 16)

that MK wheel is the dumbest idea ever. does the game at least rotate the image when you're steering with gyro like most smartphone gyro racing games?

There is a wheel accessory for the DS?

[QUOTE=DoomXploder7;33025540]This thread certainly took a turn for the weird and disturbing.[/QUOTE]

It's one of the more unusual OT's I've read and I've read quite a bit of Halo: GAF threads.

I still think that "Double Dash Mode" should be in every console MK release, and Bikes should be in every MK release period.

Lakitu is probably going to be the best character since he has goggles.

and if digimon has taught me anything, it's that the guy with the goggles is the best.

[QUOTE=ONM]More intriguing are the Friends/Opponents and Communities options. The former keeps track of your record against everyone on your friends list, notching up a 'victory' if you finish ahead of them and a 'defeat' every time you don't.

Hmm... the roster is far from a deal breaker, but I'm curious as to why this game is so downscaled in the ways it is. The models/sound are already there. I don't think they're reaching the limits of the 3DS cart. Or are they?

Hoping the secret mode is Custom Grand Prix or Mission Mode, but its probably just a sound test or something.

I'll be representing Yoshi; he was always the best. Fits my playstyle perfectly.

One thing that irks me about this series is how they take things out from the past game so randomly. I get that everyone didn't like DD but they could have at least had a DD mode. Same thing for bikes. What they did with the roster is also so random and odd. Were people really clamoring for Metal mario or Queen Bee? Making some sort of metal box item would have been far more appropriate.

some people were clamouring for Metal mario. i remember a bit of a celebration when he was announced, but i don't think people realised he was an 'instead of' character rather than an 'as well as' type of deal.

there's a few other game series that seem to always take away a feature after it was added, it's as if they want to make each game still have something that you'd go back to. i've never really understood it though.

why can't there be a 'collect coins to increase top speed' mode in every mario kart aswell? espescially this one which actually has coins...

But no important characters were taken out.

Mario Kart DS only had 12 characters, so I think this is a decent amount. A few I'm sad to see gone, though.

I felt the same way, but actually playing...I just like them (ignoring the fact they are overpowered).

Are there any pictures of Wiggler driving? I can't really imagine how that's going to work.

The new powerups seem cool and the game looks great but they really dropped the ball with the new characters. I love Galaxy but none of it's characters really stick out to me as being interesting enough to be included in other games, and a metal powerup would have been way better than a palette-swapped Mario.

I'm not complaining too much because I'd way rather them mess that up than something gameplay related, but the roster is a boring disappointment.

The new powerups seem cool and the game looks great but they really dropped the ball with the new characters. I love Galaxy but none of it's characters really stick out to me as being interesting enough to be included in other games, and a metal powerup would have been way better than a palette-swapped Mario.

I'm not complaining too much because I'd way rather them mess that up than something gameplay related, but the roster is a boring disappointment.[/QUOTE]

Still pictures don't do him justice:[

I might use him as my second racer just because of his sleight of WTFISTHAT.

Did Nintendo not create any worthwhile NPC's with Galaxy?
I'd vote for the Chimp, but other than that and Rosalina...

There was the penguin coach and old bearded-penguin guy. but not a whole lot that would work. Sunshine didn't add much beyond Bowser jr. as far as Mario Kart is concerned, and now Bowser jr. isn't even in this one.
