#Mario kart 7 3ds glitches Patch#
Here's the full patch note history for this game, featuring updates a decade apart: Ver. This follows a previous update (Version 1.1) in May 2012. Yes, despite being released in 2011, Nintendo has randomly issued a new patch for the game bumping it up to Version 1.2.Īccording to the official patch notes, several issues have been addressed to improve the overall experience. Original story : In surprise news, the excellent 3DS title Mario Kart 7 has today been updated for the second time ever. The fact the "-1" was in the code at all was probably a compiler glitch, and both it's addition and removal were most likely unintentional. This number is not used at all for checking for updates, only for starting the update, so unless the game updates again, this change will probably never be usedĪbout the compiler glitch, there was a "-1" next to a particle related function that was unused, and has been removed. One last change involved bumping the game's version number for when the game launches the in-game updater.

OatmealDome December 19, 2022ģDS homebrew developer and Mario Kart 7 modder PabloMK7 goes into a more detailed breakdown (via Twitter): The other changes are just safeguards to prevent version 1.1 from playing with 1.2.

It seems the primary changes were made to the netcode, but they “cannot give more details”. Here’s some information on the version 1.2 update from the project lead. It appears changes have been made to the game's netcode, and there's also been an update to stop Version 1.1 from being used with Version 1.2. Update : Dataminer OatmealDome has shed some light on last week's Mario Kart 7 update.
