They seem tailor made for the arcade cabinet, and don't really work on a home system. Presumably having a Boo cling to your wheel adds resistance to the wheel and makes it tougher to steer, but on Nintendont it makes absolutely no difference. The items in a traditional Mario Kart game are fairly straightforward, but I think that works to the game's advantage.ArugulaZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02099674283071076123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-852530708582756893.post-80688523499270995292016-02-13T22:14:37.348-08:002016-02-13T22:14:37.348-08:00I played one of the Mario Kart arcade games recent...I played one of the Mario Kart arcade games recently at a local arcade, and I can't say I was all that impressed. It wasn't terrible, and like you said, it certainly LOOKED good, but I'd argue that's more from a technical perspective. I feel like Nintendo's own Mario Kart games are more whimsical and fantastical than Namco's offerings. Also, like you said, there are some control issues that make the latter less appealing than the former. Still, I'm glad Nintendo let them make a go for it. Who knows, maybe the next MK Arcade title will be a real contender...Bryan Ochallahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256591698209804728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-852530708582756893.post-51431245380335326702016-02-10T14:12:14.821-08:002016-02-10T14:12:14.821-08:00I've played the first Mario Kart Arcade GP on ...I've played the first Mario Kart Arcade GP on an actual arcade machine before. The resorts at Disney World each have their own arcade in the main building (the one with restaurants and where guests can check in), and the first Mario Kart arcade game is one of the more common machines there.<br /><br />From my experience with the machine, with the exception of the cartoon mans and the weird tools the game feels closer to a standard racing game than Mario Kart. Like, some of the different tracks are alternate road layouts for the same basic track instead of stuff like driving through a water park or airship or the millionth version of Bowser's Castle.<br /><br />But anyway, if you're in the central Florida area sometime you can go resort hopping via the buses at Downtown Disney if you wanna check out the arcades and do some shopping. Don't even have to pay to get in like the main parks.MetManMashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07416332973310003213noreply@blogger.com
