What would be a perfect remake to the greatest kart racer of all-time was sabotaged by Activision's greed. The developers went above and beyond with adding all the Nitro Kart tracks and a few new ones too, a plethora of new characters, and tons of cosmetics for your karts and the characters. Problem is that you need to grind for a lot of that by collecting Wumpa Coins. To get lots of Wumpa Coins you either have the option of playing online or spending money on the microtransactions that Activision forced the developers to include. The online has problems with disconnecting and could be better set up in how it pits people together. I would not say I am bad at this game. I have beaten every Oxide ghost and most of them were fairly easy, but I can't count how many times I either got disconnected or got my ass kicked by people way better than me. This remake had potential to be a perfect 10/10 remake, but Activision's questionable and greedy choices prevented that. Even with it's glaring issues, this is easily worth the $40, especially if you haven't played the original.
