  • As close as this copy is, I would expect Apple to pull it themselves, with or without a request from Nintendo.
  • Meh I not gonna waste my money on this. Thats why I have a 3DS to get the real stuff
  • And over 10 times the price? :p
  • And over 15 times the quality! :P
  • Still can't get iCade support on new games? Why are devs missing out on this opportunity!?
  • This is so weak and it Plays mad slow that's just from watching this cheap video. It's totally a swagger jack of Mario kart just change the players and keep everything else. I do want a Mario kart on here but not some lame excuse for one. I hate this ghetto version of it. Total copy right breach
  • This game is weak. Its slow to respond on the iPhone4. And while I am not as savvy as i used to be on video games, even on easy, the races are basically impossible to win. Don't bother.
  • Dude are you serious? I won the first race I played with ease.
    This game IS mario kart and plays well, so get it before its taken off the app store.
  • Wow, yeah on normal mode it was super easy.... Hmm, I was referring to the time trials.
  • Games Will Change... Foreverwww.musicwillchangeforever.com
