Marc bought me Mario Kart 8 when I bought my Wii U and it's pretty gorgeous.
Without the Wii U, I had no interest on Mario Kart 7, not the type of games I like to play on a handheld.

i only have MK7, but i think MK8 is pretty cool. I just wish it would come out for the 3ds( i own one)

haven't played Mario Kart 8 yet but I'll surely get one when I get myself a WiiU for sure lol So, right now, I'll probably be sticking with Mario Kart 7 for portability and I have classmates that have a 3/2DS so I'll probably be playing it more when I'm in school lol

Mario Kart 8 is superior in my opinion because of the beautiful HD, 60 fps and so many tracks. The music is quite nice as well and the roster is great other than too many koopalings (sorry they just annoy me). The DLC is actually so worth it for what you get, it would be amazing if Nintendo offer DLC for all future Mario Kart games [:

I only have MK7 right now, and I've been playing it non-stop. But I feel like MK8 is a better game hands-down. Its the newer version, so bugs and other problems with mk7 would be fixed, theres new characters, a lot of dlc's. And I think the fact that it's a newer game means that more people are playing it, so there's more people to race online. Did you guys ever see that DLC with a legend of zelda themed cup? I'm not sure if that was fake or not, but just that alone would make me run out and buy mk8!

I have both Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart 8. It is true that both are great game but I have to say that Mario Kart 8 is just a little better. It is true that Mario Kart 7 introduced the kart customization, the glider, and the underwater propeller, but Mario Kart 8 introduce the zero gravity driving and is the first game in the Mario Kart franchise to have downloadable content. SO in my opinion Mario Kart 8 is the best and mario Kart 7 is the second best.

Mario Kart 8:
It has more choices.
Very good graphics.
It's the one I play on more.
(The memes that come along with it...)
It's easier to connect with my friend in Australia.

MOST CHARACTERS EVER IN A MARIO KART GAME

Anti-Gravity
Gliding is Less Broken
Not Many Glitches At All

Mario Kart is very close to my heart
Yet I myself don't even know where to start
Let's just say that my favorite is 8
All the 7ers need to update!



Every track in Mario Kart can be mastered if that's what you mean. Item-wise, Mario Kart 7 is more balanced.



Most of the items in Mario Kart 7 are the same as the ones in 8. The new items (Boomerang, piranha plant, coin, ect.) as well as the starman are very useful if you use them correctly. In the early stages of Mario Kart 8 racers were able to stock items, but I guess Nintendo didn't want that implemented in the long-run. It takes away from the nubs of Mario Kart.

yea that game is the best is the best mario kart game

I don't have MK8 but I played it. Imo, MK7>MK8 cause the item system really sucks(Item Balance, 1 item only) in MK8 compared to MK7. Also, I heard the weight really screws you over in WW's.

I have both of them and I can tell you both are worth! I know what you may think about it, the graphics of mk8 cannot be compared to those of mk7, but you can take mk7 wherever you go and I know for sure it is such a good company to have with you

Both of them have their own characteristics. As @EstebanTill2 said, Mario Kart 7 can be carried anywhere you go and it is a special assessment. The new tracks from Mario Kart 8 and the various accessories (vehicles, bonus, etc) included make its a great game. It's hard to choose between them because, as I said before, everyone has their own things.
