Mario Kart Coaster is the 8th game in the Mario Kart series. It is the sequel to Mario Kart 7 for the Nintendo 3DS. It was released on the Wii, the Nintendo 3DS, and the Wii U.
==Gameplay==
===Features===
The gameplay is just like any other Mario Kart game. Many features from previous games has also appeared in this game. Bikes from Mario Kart Wii have also appeared. When riding a bike, the player can do a Wheelie, which makes them faster for a short amount of time.
Many features returned from Mario Kart 7. Gliders have appeared once again to let players navigate through the air and drive underwater using propellers. Coins have also appeared in this game. Players can unlock characters, kart/bike parts, etc. using coins, or they can do another method. Coins are used in a race to make the player go faster. The player can also view in first-person, in which the player can tilt the Nintendo 3DS to steer. Players can exchange ghost data and play online in multiplayer mode.
Returning from Mario Kart Wii, there can be 12 characters per race. The point system is the same: 1st place is 15 points, 2nd place is 12 points, 3rd place is 10 points, etc. The Wii Wheel are still used as one of the game's controllers. In Online Multiplayer Mode, the player can type their own messages before the race begins. Tricks are still in this game, and they are performed by pressing R on the 3DS, D-pad (any direction) on the Classic Controller and the GameCube Controller, shaking the Wii Wheel up, or shaking the Wii Remote up in the Wii Remote + Nunchuk combo (Wii/Wii U).
