Not much info I'm afraid so apologies for the bare bones OP.

Game is currently in beta and videos/screens are starting to appear online.

Looks quite slow and dull, but maybe just the course and the person playing.

I wonder what kind of horrific microtransactions will be in this mobile game.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

Heard it's suppose to be quite heavy with the micro transactions, not really that bothered with this. It's hard to get excited for this when there's much better portable full Mario Kart experiences.

It's no Crash Bandicoot.

(It'll be one of the most downloaded mobile games to date, guaranteed)

Sounds like the typical timed freezeout system primarily. Almost certainly optimised items and characters too.

This would never have happened under Reggie's watch :cry:

Not really sure what to think of it yet. The typical mobile stuff turns me off but it's expected at this point.

Eurogamer have all but confirmed random gatcha style kart/character unlocks and a stamina system. :dread:

"It should be common sense to just accept the message Nintendo are sending out through their actions."

I couldn't even make it through the second vid without stopping. Looks so boring.

I don't really play mobile games but I'll give it a go, rarely get IP on mobile that I'm familiar with.

Free to play means it's bad.
