Template:Infobox Mario Kart (tentative title) is an upcoming racing game in development for the Nintendo 3DS. It is the ninth installment of the Mario Kart series, the seventh in the main series, and the third on a handheld console. The game's release date in the United States is scheduled for Holiday 2011. In the game, players will be able to exchange Ghost Data and play online in multiplayer mode.[1] Nintendo has confirmed that this game will bring "a bunch of new elements" to the Mario Kart series.[2]
Gameplay
In this new installment of the Mario Kart series, Coins will make a prominent return. Coins have not been featured in this way in the last Mario Kart games since Mario Kart: Super Circuit. The option to select classic Mario Kart tracks is also available again in this game. This new Mario Kart title also has some new features. Players can now use air gliders, which can be useful for navigating through the air. In addition, players may now assemble their own karts, rather than select pre-set karts as in older Mario Kart games. It is possible to select the body of the kart, the wheels, and other additional accessories such as the glider, although some parts need to be unlocked before they can be used. This Mario Kart game marks the return of the traditional eight characters per race, as opposed to the total of twelve as seen in Mario Kart Wii.
It is currently unclear whether or not motorbikes, which made their first appearance in Mario Kart Wii, will return in the game, as they have not yet been shown in any trailer or screenshot.
