Had something weird happen to me today. Was playing 7 on SNES Rainbow Road and fell off the side as a Blue Shell was nearing me. It passed me up as I came back up still in first and I kept hearing the warning sound. I was going "What the fuck is going on?" but kept driving.

Then I saw the Blue Shell nearing me again and realized, "Yep, it was still coming for me, but went around the whole track to do so."

There is no escape from the Blue Shell. You cannot run. You cannot hide. You can only hope to take someone with you for it will find you. And it will kill you.

So the Blue Shell is LiamNeeson?

Apparently it's so persistent and vengeful that it made its way into Super Smash Bros as an item in 4. Start running!

[up] I did, I'm just trying to comprehend how a Blue Shell can become Liam Neeson.

You don't understand. The Blue Shell didn't become Liam Neeson. The Blue Shell was always Liam Neeson.

That's why I said, upon learning of it, that the Super Horn is the greatest witchcraft. No, excuse me, it is Sorcery. It is doing something that should be completely impossible.

Fun fact: I actually get the Super Horn 70% of the time when I'm in 1st place to destroy blue shells. I actually get hit more from the shell when I'm NOT in first place.

Seems like the Animal Crossing course has different music for each season, judging by the trailer.

  • Spring: Original Animal Crossing theme.
  • Summer: New Leaf theme.
  • Fall: Wild World theme.
  • Winter: New Leaf 7:00 PM theme (I think?).

They really put a lot of effort into one course.

Man. It's a good thing you can't crash so hard you get killed in a fireball.

Though you can crash hard because you got hit by a fireball.

I need to get back on and get practicing it seems.

I'm wondering how many costume variations of Villager are we going to have? Smash 4 gave us 8 (4 boys, 4 girls).

Here's the full trailer of what I'm calling Kartville for now.
