I think it runs off one cart but the player without the game has to play as Shyguy and has no kart customization choices.

If you look closely in that video it doesn't, even though it is very clearly flying. Also strange since we've seen earlier footage where it runs on the track. Maybe it's course specific or they changed it at the last moment?

You can't really see it in the videos, but the game looks very good. Even more so in 3D. And first person driving is surprisingly playable, except on the most wacky stages (Rainbow Road really).
Can't wait for online to fill up.

Rosalina is classified as a "Heavy" character in MK. Like Bowser and Donkey Kong and Wario.

Yeah alright, it's wingless - it still flies AND takes out people on the ground though
Who created those awesome images?
(just wondered, what this was when the image loaded lol)
what...
what the hell is this
Surely you don't mean this commercial:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_uP6_5N55I
because its awesome. I love it when NoA makes "if you were in the game" type commercials. 3D Land and Super Mario Galaxy had similar commercials and they were great too.

This is the first MK game I'm getting day one since MK64. I'm excited about it. Nintendo got the 3D down pat and I'm really looking forward to seeing it in 3D.

The full image is in the OP.

Sorry, wasn't trying to call you out on anything. I'm just wondering out loud about why they bothered to change the shell but not how it worked if it's still floating. Nintendo logic.

No, you were right. I just hadn't bothered to actually check if it had wings or not. Usually too much going on :lol
In case you were reading it wrong, I was thanking him for not writing the names of tracks plainly and putting them in spoilers. I want to be surprised.

Can't wait for this!
its supposed to start on the ground and the closer it gets to first place the more it starts to fly

Are there any vids of the Mario Circuit 2 (SNES) and Royal Raceway (N64) retro courses yet?
On Mario Circuit 2, i hope it retains the feeling of using a mushroom before the final jump! Loved the feeling on the original where you could swing a skid out in mid-air to steal first place! And i'm curious whether they made anything official out of glitch in Royal Raceway (veer hard left off the big ramp and land on the river bank, skipping half the course).

Makes sense in the Mario mythos. Isn't she made of stars, which are super dense anyways.
I'm probably thinking about this too much.

Rosalina isn't made of stars, but she's magical. In the in-game story, she is a girl who got lost in outer space, found the little star guys, and felt responsible for them so became their "mother". She apparently gained magical powers and became a magical being. As a result, she's very tall; bigger than the other humanlike Mario cast.
So I suppose they were thinking more in terms of her scale than literal body weight. She's a "big" character.

I think you're right actually. That makes sense.

Thanks for all the impressions and videos Fox. Maybe it has been answered but I didn't see it: Can you change the rules in communities after you have established them? I guess you register communities once and then can re-connect using the GUI? Is there a limit to how many communities may be stored if it is indeed the case?
She is just big-boned!
Haha yea, no doubt. I can't even remember the last time I've bought that many games in one period of time.
But in the meantime, i'm going to flunk out of college
you can go to college anytime but games you have to play now
me too man me too

Excited for this, even though all the new characters are lame and the option to individually exclude blue shells would have been amazing.
Does anyone know if MK gets AA if you turn 3D off? I really like it when games have that option. I played Zelda and Mercenaries in 3D probably 90% of the time but if I was in a moving vehicle or playing while I was watching TV or something and wanted to turn it off having AA is really nice.
Mario 3D Land looks pretty great but it's pretty jaggy, I would have loved to have seen that game smoothed out.

No rule changing after it's made. Not sure if there is a limit, but I doubt it.
then i guess i don't understaaaand
i was just busting his pounch
I would have loved for that in M3DL. It's a beautiful game, and AA would have been a fantastic bonus.
I'm pretty sure MK7 is the same. All of the 2d videos and screenshots show jaggies
