Available for North America. Heck, Mario & Sonic Winter Olympics is still up!

Darn Sumo! You are British (I think) so why no demo for us?

I’m getting a video of gameplay uploaded as we speak.

LOL!! I was about to send it and it’s already all over the net!! XD

DS Demo plays almost simular to the 360 demo. Score!

I just played the demo!!! The Graphics and physics are just like the Wii Version.

wow it goes to show video gameplay tells you loads about a game this is awsome getting ps3 version first then ds when it goes down in price

The game was pretty sweet for a digital download.

If the entire game is like this with online, it could possibly be on par with Mario Kart DS.

Though right now, I haven’t really found anything to protect me from homing missiles besides barriers.

Just played through the demo, pretty disappointed. Only 6 racers can race at a time and the demo states it can only support 4 players? MKDS supported the full 8. As well, the characters models were smaller in proportion compared to the 360 demo. The smaller racers and cars show less details on the 3D model and affects the gameplay. The tracks seem now wider and would be fine if there was more racers such as 8 but with only 6 racers the tracks feel a bit too open. The level design was almost perfect too but the beginning of the track is different and one shortcut from the console demo is noticeably removed and also noticed that there is less borders on bridges too so its easier to fall off the tracks. The crabmeat enemies also are only on the sides of the track and don’t move towards the center, so now they aren’t a threat. Finally, without the announcer and character voices, the game feels less lively then its console brother.

The demo does has its good sides though, Graphics look pretty, music remix for DS version is nice, and the gameplay works great and smooth. I was originally going to get the DS version as well cause I love kart racers but I guess I’ll just stick to the 360 one.

Anyone noticed the Bonanza Bros on the top right when Sonic dashed ?

SEGA Europe Blog says “Firstly yes, the Nintendo DS demo is out now in the US – it will be arriving in Europe soon.”
So yay I guess.

It’s surprisingly faster than the 360 version. Fun
