Mario Kart World's latest patch allows players to get a hold of the Coin Block item in first place which is a great addition… or it would be if there wasn't one crucial flaw.
Mario Kart World update 1.2 arrived yesterday, and – what is a pretty unprecedented move from Nintendo – included a big batch of patch notes. These included assurances that three-lap races would be easier to get (they're not), and a bunch of balance updates including when you can get certain items. One of these was the ability for players to get a Coin Block in first place, which is a really cool upgrade, effectively giving you a way to get even more coins than the standard coin item, except there's one glaring issue with it.
