Mario Kart 7: Statistics

STATISTICS


The next title in the popular classic racing game is zooming on its way. Mario Kart 7 will be available in stores December 4th, but information about the game has already begun to slowly leak away. Some of the first notable attributions are the return of the coin system and the addition of hang-gliders and underwater mobility.

While some may argue of these additions being far too gimmicky, it has come to attention that these make an enjoyable new addition to the series. In addition to that, tricks from Mario Kart Wii make a welcomed return as well. Yet another new addition is the ability to use the 3DS's gyroscope to drive your kart through the courses.

Mario Kart 7 will be one for the history books.

good job collecting this data shaymins and i can't believe they added lakitu

[Shaymins]

I'm so excited that they added Rosalina! :D
I was crossing my fingers, hoping she would make it, and she did! ^.^
Unfortunately, her lil' Luma didn't make the cut, but at least she did! :D Rosalina was the only character I really ever wanted from Mario Kart 7. xD

[Aege]

Awesome it's making me buy the 3ds and Mario Kart 7

[atomicboo]

i already have a 3ds so this is on my Christmas list

[Shaymins]

Sorry, I couldn't get good pictures of a few of the characters. I tried to find pics confirming that they were in the game.
EDIT:
Just found metal mario and Lakitu. ;D

From the looks of it, Bowser, DK, and Rosalina are the Heavy characters. They have all been seen using the same Karts. I'm not sure if Wario might be included.

[GENIUS]

This will definitely be worth the $50 I'm paying for it. I never saw Metal Mario coming ,but Lakitu will be evenly epic. Who will start the races then? A luma maybe?

No, it's still a Lakitu. The Green shelled one starts the races, the red shelled one races. But a Luma would be an awesome idea now that Rosalina doesn't have it at her side! :D
I'm hoping that there's an option to include the Luma with Rosalina. It was most likely taken out because many players thought it was annoying in Mario Kart Wii.
I didn't. ._.


Oh, I didn't mention any tracks, because the new ones have unformal names ATM, but 3 notable ones are:
The Comet Observatory
Some kind of bowser building
An ice level with underwater routes (somewhat pictured in Rosalinas image.)

Spoiler

Man, I'm talking about Rosalina so much. xD
She was my main in MKW, and now I can't imagine myself using anyone else. I was hoping she would get in MK7, but didn't think she would since Mario Kart games are usually based on the Mario games that game before them.
ex. Mario Kart DS ->Super Mario 64 DS, Mario Kart Wii->super Mario Galaxy.
It shocked me when it was confirmed that she made the cut. Maybe this means she'll make an appearance in Super Mario 3D Land.
That, or the people at Nintendo really wanted to make some outer space levels, and it wouldn't be right without Rosy.
Either way, I'm happy. xD

[Logman]

Shaymins this was awesome! Great job compiling all of this! This game is going to be totally awesome. I was talking to a person at Gamestop about it last week and she suggested pre-ordering it. And after reading this I definitely will!
