Mario Kart 7

Mario Kart 7

I first got this game bundled with the standard 2DS console as a digital download. I decided to buy directly from Nintendo which had me very worried as it was being delivered by Yodel. Everyone knows that Yodel has the worst rep. Constantly misplacing and losing parcels.

Mario Kart 7 was the first game I played on the 2DS. Produced by Hideki Konno and Yasuyuki Oyagi, the game contains classic racing courses as well remakes of courses from earlier titles.

My favourite course by far was melody motorway. Those pianos playing in tune with the music was mind blowing.

What stood out to me was how very easy the controls were to pick up. No tutorials required. It just lets you have fun right from the get go.

The most surprising thing was that you can change the camera to a cockpit view. Not only that, but the console also has gyro controls! Not very ideal though as the view is quite restrictive.

Anyway, that was my take on Mario Kart 7. This isn't meant to be a review. Just a short comment on the games I will be playing on this amazing console. Please, add your own comments on what you thought of the game.
