Mario Kart 8!

How do you get the items to dangle behind you instead of just firing them off when you use them?

If you hold the trigger button for Firing the weapons you can drag items behind out. Any multi item weapon spin around you though. The banana's used to however behind you which was better

BTW: I think Mount Wario is my favorite track. I love that it's not actually a circuit, and that each lap is different.

That's a new setup that was introduced in Mario Kart 7. There are a few courses that work that way, but they are all pretty swell.
