There Is Losing In Mario Kart, And Then There Is Getting Wrecked Like This
Most of us know the agony of getting hit with a blue shell moments before crossing the finish line. The same can be said of red shells and getting shunted off the course. Oh, and getting smacked with a thunderbolt, too.
I guess what we’re trying to say is, there are a lot of ways to lose at Mario Kart. Thankfully, you’ll probably have better luck than this poor racer who took it on the chin from just about every direction, going from first to worst.
Do you have any great (or terrible) Mario Kart stories? Did you snatch victory from the jaws of defeat (or did someone else’s piranha plant snatch you in its jaws at the last second)? Let us know in the comments.
Not sure if this intense level of competition is for you? Check out our review of the most recent entry in the series, Mario Kart 8 for Wii U.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
