"Fun, but not without a few quad-ities.
Since Mario Kart 7’s release in late 2011, there's been no answer for the Blue Shell blues. Nothing is wrong with the available kart racers, but more variety in the genre is something I cry out for. Luckily, my hunger pangs for arcade racing were heard all the way down in Austin, Texas. Renegade Kid, the studio behind Mutant Mudds, has crafted a fun racer in ATV Wild Ride 3D, even if you still feel a few bumps along the way.", writes NintendoWorldReport.
Renegade Kid is one of the best indie companies for Nintendo. From the Dementium series on the DS to Mutant Mudds on the 3DS, Renegade Kid always has a high level of quality in all of their titles that resembles a large studio more-so then an a smaller indie company. For a limited time starting today, Renegade Kid has 3 titles on sale for 30% off on the 3DS eShop.
Gimme Gimme Games writes in their review of ATV: Wild Ride 3D:
"Wild Ride 3D requires actual thought and planning but doesn't overwhelm you with it. You'll still enjoy riding big air and frantically beating your friends to the finish line. Wild Ride 3D has a subtle depth to it with its controls which make it a must-have eShop game despite a few nagging issues."
Nintendo Life: Bringing online racing to the 3DS eShop in any form is a pretty ambitious undertaking, but we'll say up front that ATV Wild Ride 3D gets that part exactly right. In our experience the online racing is fast, smooth, and reliable. As far as that goes, we genuinely couldn't ask for anything more, and the simple fact that it has online functionality might be enough for many gamers.
