anyway... I played the demo version today. i noticed a few weird things in the items.
-red shells (and triple): nothing different, except for icon is more 3d looking.
-green shells (and triple): nothing different, except for icon is more 3d looking.
-mushroom (and tripple): more of a boost, and icon is more 3d looking.
-bananas (and tripple): nothing different
-golden mushroom: seems to last longer, plus more boost on each click, and icon is more 3d looking.
-boos: didnt get, dunno if its in demo, but i thought i remember seeing it
-bullet bill: not in
-bombomb: didnt get, icon was more 3d.
-blooper: not in?
-star: character doesnt celebrate when they have it.
-blue shell: dunno if it circles over your head, but trail looked different.
-and finally chain chomp: icon showed up on rullet, but even when i was in 8th (slowed down to try to get it), didnt get it. probably icon was put in but no data, and the bullet bill replaced it later :(

"the golden mushroom lasts longer"? Did the character you used have the same item rating as the one you usually use?

no. no one had item ratings. it was a choose the char and play. only standard karts, just like in battle mode.

also when you get banged by a kart or jumped on, the animation and kart movement was kinda different. instead of being pushed to the side like normal,the kart turned about 30 degrees, and changed the direction slightly, while forced sideways.

oh yeah... the actual shells when launched looked different as well

When I said the drifting was screwed up, I meant It didnt make the first blue spark. (just the red one)

I've also played the demo version and I noticed that the karts are slower than in the regualr version. They were at 50cc speed, but the demo version removed those other engine classes.

Hydra_Hunter · « **Reply #20 on:** March 22, 2006, 06:40:01 PM »

they were probably at 50 cc and only had 50 cc cuz it was a demo.
and... Chain chomp and bullet bill are like the same thing in the mk games. which was better? i liked chainchomp better, because turning into a bullet bill was a dumb idea

I kind of agree. Plus, Chain Chomp had that effect where if it detached while you were turning you could get swung into the corner.

Well, I managed to get ahold of a copy, so eventually the differences will make it onto TMK.
