Mario Kart 7 is the 3DS successor of the Mario Kart series and is the first Mario Kart game to be numbered (a number which ignores the two arcade games).
Gameplay
Mario Kart 7 introduces new gameplay elements in an attempt to innovate on the series. It is possible to customize karts, and the karts will also change within races, as they can deploy wings to glide during big jumps and propellers to let karts drive across the sea floor. This installment also adds some more racers (such as a Lakitu and Metal Mario) and items. Coins have also been reincorporated after they had only been in the original game. Miis are also still playable following Mario Kart Wii. The game also allows the option of controlling the cart using the 3DS's gyroscope.
This game allows up to eight players and is compatible with the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection as the Spotpass and Streetpass features (which handle ghost data).
