"Mario Kart 8 seems like a fantastic racing trip, and perhaps the best game in Nintendo’s booth at E3. Though it won’t change the karting genre forever, the renewed emphasis on course design and the push for competitive online play and community — with Miiverse integration and the ability to capture and share video — could make Mario Kart 8 a really fun racing experience when it launches in 2014."
