Surprise surprise, Australia were supposed to be the first PAL region to get the game, it was due out Mid October, Ninty Aus have now emailed registered users saying the release date date has now slipped to "sometime in November" vague as ever, will it affect our release date (currently 13/11 I think), who knows ?

Well it was quite likely, when does Australia ever get anything first?

Not really. Looks a bit PANTS compared to all the other Mario Kart games.

I'm sure it'll be good and fun in its own right, but still.... it ain't good ol' traditional Mario Kart!

Yeah damn you Nintendo for not sticking to the same formulae used in 3 nearly identical games... why oh why did Nintendo change a game I already own 3 times.

Bahh! The SNES game was all flat and great.

N64 game went all 3D, new tracks, and was great fun!

Not counting the GBA version as vitually EVERY game Nintendo have made for the thing so far has been a SNES port!

All I'm saying is why not stick to proper single character racing. What's with this stupid two charater milarky? And those stupidly huge chomp powerup things?

Bahh, this ain't traditional hardcore Mario Kart!

:P

Bah, why didn't they stick with 2D Mario rather than make him 3D?

To make a change.

Which is exactly what they've done here.

Now, tell me, was it a successful change with Mario?

In the same sense, bah, Mario 64 ain't traditional Mario.

Actually to take your example a bit further...

Mario 2D (Super Mario World) to Mario 3D (Mario 64) => GREAT!

Mario Kart 2D to Mario Kart 3D => GREAT!

Mario 3D to Mario 3D with a stupid waterpack (Mario Sunshine) => Stupid idea and should have stuck with the norm!

Mario Kart 3D to Mario Kart 3D with two ppl per kart and stupid looking power ups => Stupid idea and should have stuck with the norm!

:D
