I played Wave Race 64 for the first time last year – it's incredible how impressive the water tech still is after all these years – and it seems Nintendo has finally remembered how fun wave-based gameplay is with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mario Kart World on Switch 2. A recent video clip shows how explosive effects on🍒 tౠhe water-based portions of the tracks can give you new opportunities while racing.

In the , we see a blue shell strike a racer in the water, creating 🐼a massive shockwave that ripples outward. That wave has a physical presence in the world that you can use𒅌 as a ramp to jump off of and do a quick boost trick off of.

It's arguable a tiny detail, but that kind of dynamic water deformation – with an effect on gameplay – is still relatively uncommon these days, and it reminds me of just how much fun the cha🌊os of that tech made Wave Race. He𓆏re's hoping it shows up for more than just blue shell encounters in Mario Kart World.

We're about to learn a lot more about Mario Kart World is part of a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:dedicated Ni൩ntendo Direct later this week, but the early gameplay from the Switch 2 reveal and recent public events has already told us plenty. It's got 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tony Hawk-style rail grinding, a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:proper open-world layout, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:massive character variety, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:an $80 price tag that's been pushing the limits of what Nintendo fans are willing to accept. Only time w🎃ill tell if it justifies the price, but for now it's been an impr♕essive showing.

Mario Kart World gets my gold medal thanks to the thrilling 24-player Knockout Tour, and I can't wait for another lap.
