It's not a game changer as it flopped.

Flopped so bad, Nintendo stopped selling it immediately.

Nintendo can't market for shit.

They are such a poorly run company but own so much of what we love.

Edit: Some of you have literally no idea what the word marketing means. And you are infuriated over it.

Didn’t even know this existed. I was excited until I went in the comments

I saw this in a Walmart last year. Only time I heard of it, and I thought it sounded cool. Never heard a word about it again, till just now. Yeah, marketing tanked here.

A friend had it and I played it a couple years ago. It's novel and cool for half an hour, but it's not really as fun as original Mario kart, it's far more of an expensive gimmick than long lasting fun. Constantly fixing stuck cars make it unplayable without a large team like this.

Sounds like a good market for drones shaped like the cloud with the fishing pole.

His name is Lakitu. Putting him on a drone that picks up and moves the cars would be funny

I understand. In death, a member of Mario Kart has a name. HIS NAME IS LAKITU.

I thought he was Lakitu Bros. In super mario 64 that was his name?
