New Mario Kart Double Dash details!

It's faster, with powerslides

Posted by Staff
As the dust settles on Nintendo's E3 showing every year, the legions of fanboys, sneaking in under the age-old "CEO of some company" ruse, find that as their heart rates drop back to normal, a moment is afforded to reflect upon what they've just played.

This process takes usually about a week.

Then it's time to dissect what was seen without that "oh-my-god-oh-my-god" rose tint getting in the way.

And this year, following the frenzy of joy that greeted Mario Kart Double Dash for GameCube, several things came to light. Namely, that the game was quite slow, and that the all-important, hop-into-powerslide function was ominously missing.

Well there's good news folks, as Nintendo America has today confirmed to us that the game, when released later this year, will be "considerably faster, and with the powerslide function included."

Good news we're sure you'll agree.
