The update for Mario Kart 7 is now available to download through the eShop. The patch fixes exploits found within three different tracks that many users have been using to gain an unfair advantage in online multiplayer races.

The three courses which have been updated are Wuhu Island Loop, Wuhu Mountain Loop and GBA Bowser Castle 1. Players who choose not to download the update will not be able to participate in any online races. The patch does not affect time trials.

The update is live right now in all major regions.

Time for the WuHu'ers (TM, Greg Leahy) to become the Boo-Hoo'ers.


Already been online with the patch, no one is choosing WuHu now!

Finally I can choose Wuhu Mountain! I really enjoyed the track, but once the cheaters set in I felt like I could never pick it, even though I was an honorable player.

The only thing that NEEDS patching is the online. Everything else is just peoples own personal preferences. Well, I did hate that Samus got nerfed since she is weaker than she was in Melee.

Yeah, for better or worse, most of the things in Brawl are the way they are intentionally.

I have played once since the patch and had a very enjoyable experience. It seems to have weeded out a lot of the jerk/douchebag crowd.
