ok, the game is cool, cool graphics and all but simply the items and the cpu are really annoying, it happened that i was at about at 5 meters (about 8 feet, i dunno) in 1 place and in the last turn and i get hit by a blue shell after i land and before i could even spied up, i get hit by a red shell, after that, i get hit by ANOTHER red shell, after that i get hit by a POW block, then i get hit by a banana, it not even landed, it hit me directly and the i got hit by a green shell, when i crossed the line, i was in 12 place, it was ridiculous, and that is frequent, yeah its a cool game, but seriously its really annoying sometimes
