I actually hate MK8.
xD
I haven’t played it in a while so I was unaware that the blue shell was even glitching like that. :b
I do enjoy that Nintendo chose to extend the invulnerability after being hit by an item. I always felt that I could be “Mario-karted” to easily, so maybe this will help.
I ran into that blue shell thing a few times and was so confused. Glad it was fixed.
