There’s a variety of predictable race modes to choose from. After a while, the races seem to feel identical, but for quick racing on the go, this is a terrific choice helped by satisfying, responsive controls that work really well with the 3DS’ button layout and new analog nub. The races themselves are damn fun with some nicely designed, if aesthetically similar, tracks that put the focus on skillful cornering and drifting. The perks make for a cool new addition, but it would have been great to have more choices and unique abilities to choose from. Perks are bought using points earned from successful races and take the form of extra nitrous bursts and automatic rocket boosts.
