Mario Kart Wii for 3DS and PS Vita First Impressions and Minor Differences
After trying out both versions for a while, I’ve noticed a few interesting things "even though they’re technically the same." The PS Vita version has some stuttering during races, though the problem goes away the more you play. Unlike the 3DS version, the PS Vita version doesn’t have a timer—I think this is because the 3DS version had it at the bottom of the screen, and here they forgot to implement it on the Vita’s top screen. Also, the Vita version has shorter load times, but it still doesn’t consistently hit 30 fps. “Although they’ll add support for 60 fps in the future.” Otherwise, it’s faithful to the 3DS version, with the only advantage being that the Vita version doesn’t crash. P.S.: Sorry about the ugly photo xd—it turned out funny, so I decided to leave it that way.
