My review of Mario Kart 7, two years too late

Last year, I received a Nintendo 3DS for my birthday. That was about 10 months ago. I have been playing through Super Mario 3D Land (great game, really tough) and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time ever since. Yes, I have finished OoT many, many times, and even spent many, many words describing my love for the game. It was different this time though, because the 3DS version includes THE MASTER QUEST, which I had never experienced before. With that deed now done, I promise that I will never, ever buy another re-release of Ocarina of Time. I will, however, buy a re-release of Majora's Mask in 3D as soon as it is out.

Mario Kart is another one of those games which I buy compulsively. I had stopped myself from buying the latest 3DS version because while I am a fan of the series, I feel like Mario Kart is something that is better appreciated as a multiplayer game. When four of my friends and coworkers decided to buy a 3DS at the same time a few weeks ago(Walmart sale!), we made the pact to acquire Mario Kart 7 and turn lunch break into kart madness.

I have been playing the game very frequently in the last few weeks, to the point where I feel safe enough in my knowledge of the product to give it a fair review. I have unlocked every character, I have played all the courses, but I am still working on the kart parts. What follows is my unorganized, but thorough review.

What Is Love?: The Musical

Nostalgia is a big deal these days. That's why you end up with Stranger Things and Mama Mia! and other pieces of fiction set in the good old days. We have been plenty nostalgic for every decade all the way to the 80s, but 90s nostalgia is just starting.

I would like to do my part. When I think of the 90s, and of things I used to do back then, I think of Nintendo and video games. But that's something that not everyone can identify with.

The other thing I identify with is the music. Everybody still listened to the radio back then because we didn't have YouTube or Spotify or bla bla bla. So that means that sooner or later, everybody was exposed to the musical phenomenon that was eurodance music.

And that's where I come in.

What Is Love? The Musical

That's right. This is a musical that relives the glory of mid-90's dance music.
