1AM PST. 4AM EST.

 

[WonderzL]

Exactly how long will it be until the floodgates open? I'm excited as hell to try out the courses.

I think it releases in less than 2 hours? Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

after months of playing other games I'll spend most of my nights in the GAF rooms until GTAV

 

[Exentryk]

1 AM PST the maintenance finishes.

 

[The Xtortionist]

$12 for both packs?

[vgamer1]

$12 for both packs, but I got it for FREE thanks to the DDP!

 

[SoulUnison]

12 dollars. Twelve.

It makes my head spin that in the age of micropayments and season passes Nintendo basically doubles the amount of content in one of their biggest games for the cost of splurging for lunch at a "nicer" fast food joint.
And it's not the usual "DLC grade" "cutting room floor" "buy our B-tier content" crap, either. It's all right up with the quality of the main game.

So goddamn classy.

 

[PreyingShark]

Do we firehop?

AFAIK there's no anti-firehopping rule anymore.

However, aside from me there really hasn't been too much firehopping going on. I think I'm the only one who does it whenever he can.

 

[Roo]

1 AM PST the maintenance finishes.

lol thank you, I tried to quote your post from the other thread but it got locked
I'll add the countdown at the very top of the OT

 

[DVCY201]

Looking forward to playing with you all again! Can't wait to try out all these courses

 

[pupcoffee]

After playing global all this time, I read on a forum that global is only 100c, is that true?

 

[Teknoman]

If only there was a way to get a 100% all bike race on Excite Bike track.

 

[Chrom]

Oh, so are the suits permanently unlocked once their respective amiibo is scanned? That'd be great if true!

 

[vinnygambini]

Ohhhh Yiiiiiissssss

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Awesome, I'll probably end up firehopping into the wall anyways.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

So I guess it won't release for a few more hours?

I see the maintenance message but was hoping it's there for offline play.

 

[Rich!]

Same

And that was points gained for free from registering free game deals via the mario kart 8 EU promotion!

TIME TO DRIFT

 

[Babymario26]

was hoping to play this before i sleep, guess ill play some bayoneta instead.

 

[Benzychenz]

8pm here? Tonight will be a fun night.

 

[Fantomex]

You dont have to. Honestly, all you've gotta do is add the tournament code when posted, and you'll almost always find GAF people in a race.

Awesome. Thanks

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

It seems much more chaotic now with less people. o_o

 

[oti]

I'm .49€ short to buy both packs...
Gotta get 15€ from PayPal I guess.
Deluxe Points are at 300 so that woudn't wotk out either.

 

[Cody_D165]

Can't wait to play these when I wake up.

 

[Gattuso]

i'll get the timing down to use the mushroom with a blue eventually.
got tossed to the side like I was weightless

 

[Sakura]

Spend the few bucks, then based on that content, debate whether or not to get the 2nd DLC.

Well, this is where I'm not sure what to do.
I know it's only 12 bucks to get both, but part 2 won't be out for a while and who knows if I will even still be playing MK8 then or what I will be doing... but if I only buy the one then it's 8 bucks for just one... Hmm

 

[giga-ganon]

can't wait to play it when i finish work, 10 hours left!

 

[Azure J]

TIME TO DRIFT

I'm watching this with this playing in the background and it's amazing right now. :lol

 

[Lunar15]

Considering the fact that I had enough digital deluxe credit to get this DLC for free, it's like Nintendo has given me one fantastic birthday gift. Perfect timing, Nintendo!

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

I do it when it drops down after spinning around.

 

[Winnie the Pimp]

I don't even have a Wii U yet but i will get one as soon as the next bundle drops.

Just one question: Does MK8 feature worldwide multiplayer? (across regions)

 

[Gaiaknight]

Hahaha, awesome :-D

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Can't wait to start playing MK again!

 

[Gattuso]

I do it when it drops down after spinning around.

I attempted that the best I could that other race but I do have a poor reaction time

 

[Neiteio]

I just realized that when the second pack is out, I'll be able to race through Mute City, on a motorcycle, as Isabelle from Animal Crossing

 

[Neoxon]

 

[Tripon]

Noice. Looking forward to play with you guys again.

Well played there haha. You fooled me.

 

[Gattuso]

[CrimsonCommie]

|OT3| Wall of Shame:

Wow I still made it at the bottom of the list even though I stopped playing a few months ago. I think I was on it for all 3 topics lol

 

[PreyingShark]

|OT3| Wall of Shame:

...I haven't even owned the game for that long...

I think I have a problem.

C&P what's in the "email" tags when you hit Quote. You don't actually quote it in a post.

 

[SUPERJEM94]

Unfortunate for me, I won't be able to play the DLC until Friday! D:
Hope you guys have fun though! And I can't wait to beat you guys with the Master Cycle!

 

[LiveFromKyoto]

Preordered day one, online practicing right now in anticipation.

Spoiler

But definitely going to bed before it hits.
