I've seen all the features. It looks almost as solid as Brawl. They may even include voice chat. However... I also agree, that this game may be hype. I'm pretty confident it will be a good game, but worth $50? It better have a great battle mode. Mario Kart DD's battle mode sucked on the GC. I felt Mario Kart DD split the fan base, and I'm hoping this game brings the fan base back.
