Have you ever played against the AI in the Wii version? 150cc is basically code for "player 1 eats a blue shell, then a red before they can get any speed, then another series of items all before they can really move, right on the final corner, every time". Playing that game with AI opponents (which you'll probably want to do if you want a full sized race since you're not always going to be able to find a full set of humans) is an exercise in tedium.
I agree with this. The AI seems to cheat and get too many blue shells especially at one time and makes trying to get high grades in 1P mode really annoying.
But I was talking mostly about multiplayer, and as someone with 8000 VR points, it really hasn't affected me too much.
