Fun but major drawback

This is so fun and totally worth the $14, imo. Its nostalgic and challenging enough that replaying levels is still fun. However, you cant play (levels or rally) without a decent internet connection, which limits you. It feels kind of pointless to pay $14 to play something that needs the internet and is this basic. I can understand games that interface with other users in real time but this game doesnt do that. I cant play on my commute, while traveling or any place outside a decent internet connection. Unclear choice by Nintendo. Hopefully they make another game but dont limit consumers like they did with this one.
