Are item rarities different on 50/100/150cc?
After getting Gold in all 100cc grand prix races I decided to start in on 150cc. Since doing so, I've noticed I'm getting a LOT more Super Horn items while in first place. I got maybe one in 8 Grand Prix races in 100cc, I'm getting almost one per track now.
Is the item list/rarity different on different difficulty/speeds or is this just a fluke?
Best Answer
It's pretty easy to confirm that at least the CPU players' item rate is different based on cc - I've never ever seen a Red Shell from a CPU in 50cc, for example, while they're rare on 100cc and more common on 150cc.
I haven't yet seen any proof as obvious as this for player item rate.
