I like the tracks, and the game is a step back i admit. However, overall, I am a fan of this game, and will continue to be a fan of Mario kart for a long, long time.
I really didn't like it that much... The tracks seemed really short

Personally all the Mario Kart games I've played, almost all the tracks seemed short except for Rainbow Raod (Mario Kart 64). Least that's the only track that seems long to me.
It's really fun tho I have to admit that the last Mario Kart I played was for the 64. I'm usually not into racers but there's just something about Mario Kart's quirky characters and beautifully rendered tracks that make it so playable. All that and with the 3DS's controls being as tight as they are it's hard not to like it. My only gripe would be the unfair item usage. I really dislike blue turtle shells and billy bullet; I find making the game heavily luck based makes the actual racing element feel cheap at times. But drifting has never been easier, the gliders are a nice touch to the kart customization setup and the 3D effect really builds on the already stellar graphics. Good game for 3DS owners indeed .
There's really nothing special about Mario Kart 7. The formula is the same, but the online mode is really addicting. It's still a great game nonetheless.
wait.. what? It's a huge mile stone for the series, but it's also a step back? Anyway, Mario Kart will always be Mario Kart. I don't ever expect the series to take a leap. I can't say I like MK7 better than MkWii, the tracks are overall disappointing, though some are fantastic like Rainbow Road, and I love the new gliding feature. But i seem to find myself playing the retro tracks way more, which is unlike me, I always loved the new ones.
I really like the track designs in this game. The addition of non-repeating tracks is cool, and there are hidden shortcuts everywhere. The online play is really nice, even on my weak connection.

So it's a huge milestone but it is a step back? With all due respect, I'm a bit confused by your stance. It is definitely my favourite title in the series. Keep em comin' Ninny.
I'd say Mario Kart DS had the strongest set of new and old tracks in the entire series, but this one is more difficult, has a better online service and has better costomisation features. Both are strong entries in the series though, and I much prefer them to the Wii, GameCube and N64 versions.
Mario Kart 7 is the best Mario Kart IMO. They essentially combined the best parts about all the previous Mario Kart games into this new one and got rid of the annoying things in those games. Plus, the online is the best effort Nintendo has ever put into an online title -- and it works really well.
I never contradicted myself. It's a step back in some ways, like no mission mode or vs mode, but OVERALL, it's huge. When taken individually, it has some disappointments.

Completely agree, it's by far my most favorite MK game, beating out even the nostalgia of Super Mario Kart (which has aged terribly lol)
People saying all the Mario Kart games are the same need to try the SNES and GBA ones. They are both a lot tougher and rely more on racing than items. All of the true 3D ones are more varients on a theme and have a lot more focus on multiplayer. I guess that is only two basic varients over seven games though.
