Template:Infobox Arcade Game Mario Kart Arcade GP DX is an upcoming Mario Kart game for Japanese arcades being developed by Namco Bandai with partnership with Nintendo. It is the sequel to Mario Kart Arcade GP 2.
Gameplay
Grand Prix, Clone Battle and two-players modes are confirmed. The player can choose betwen seven karts, five of them being unlockable. Before starting a race, the player can take their photography and decorate it with twelve included features, such as a samurai helmet and a pirate suit. The player then must choose if he/she wants to play in 50cc, 100cc and 150cc, with 100cc and 150cc being unlockable. The player then must choose which one of three themed tracks (Toad, Mario, Don-chan) he/she want to play. Every circuit has a time limit, and when the player is at first place his photography has a crown. When the player completes a lap, lights between the game screen change the color. The main feature of the game is that players can now play in cooperative, similar to Mario Kart: Double Dash!! in that a player is the driver and the second shoots items. Cooperative play is only possible by gaining a special power-up which transforms the player's kart into a tank that will drive and the second player is called to control the turret and shoot unlimited amounts of Green Shells at any direction for a limited period of time.[1] Additionally, gameplay elements from Mario Kart 7 such as the use of gliders and underwater courses are present.
