I'll probably join next week, I want to unlock everything first and I can only play sparingly since I'm in the middle of moving.

150cc clears everything below it, and Mirror & 200cc are separate. So if you're confident in your abilities (and 150cc seems easy in this game), there's no real reason to waste your time on 50cc and 100cc.

Due to purple artifacting in the clouds and reflections in MK8, I'm assuming my Switch is overheating or otherwise defective. Only does it in docked mode. For those of you who have sent in your Switch for repairs to Nintendo, can you share your experiences? Will I keep my saves?

Here! And dominating so far.
Drunk Mario Kart is best Mario Kart
So I haved played about 6-7 hours of this game today and I want to praise Nintendo.
I never got to own this on Wii U but it's such a joy to play. Playing with GAF is a blast and the gameplay is so tight.
I usually play exclusively handheld to the point where when the battery needs charging, i'll wait before I can play portably again ignoring dock mode. In MK8, I find myself actually using docked mode more. It's absolutely gorgeous in 1080p and all the colours pop. On the Switch screen it is equally as impressive. Being able to play downstairs, upstairs and anywhere outside makes this game really special.
Great work Nintendo! Additionally, HD Rumble feels good here!

Jeesh I feel like the same 5 maps are our options in this 150cc tourney lol. You can tell because whenever we get a different one, everyone picks it.
So this is essentially my first Mario Kart since the Wii version, which I barely played (didn't even unlock the full roster), and I'm surprised by how natural it felt. Still need the learn the courses, though.
Battle Mode is tons of fun but I wish they had a "last man standing" version of Balloon Battle. Even so, it's the only place I've dipped my toes in online so far, and I'm loving the chaos of it. Shine Runner is amazing.

Anyone else notice the audio glitch on Sunshine Airport where your character's voice gets extremely quiet (and possibly other sounds are gone)?
It happens when you go off the first big ramp that sends you up to the track in the sky, and then the audio is messed up for the remainder of the race.
I've only raced on that course with Orange Yoshidifferent car parts didn't make any difference though.

I won that 20 to 0. It was ridiculous. Not sure how I pulled it off. It seems the most luck based. So it's kind of a frustrating but super gratifying if you win.

The drive assist is a godsend for the 3 year old. He loves watching me play games but I wasn't sure how to get him used to playing games, well here it is.

I feel the same except I've played Mario Kart since the SNES. It's just not clicking for me it feels kind of on rails at times. Ehh idk.

That was a beautiful little moment we had there, Incite. You hit me with the greens, I stopped, stared you in the face, and blew us both up.

I don't have the game yet, still waiting for my Amazon delivery :-(.
But my question is, how can I join GAF on Mario Kart? That sounds fun!

Nooooooooo!
We were so easy to catch

GBA game was pinnacle of the SNES style of actual kart racing. This is more Mario Party.
Granted battle mode the best it's been, so I'm happy. There's totes gonna be more DLC.... RIGHT?!
