Anybody playing online with Wii Wheels? Wondering if that's a viable control option in a competitive setting.

I am. Doing solid 1st-5th in the Gaf room

LOL I got you.

 

[VanWinkle]

I am. Doing solid 1st-5th in the Gaf room

Nice!

 

[javac]

I'm really good with drifting imo so I usually end up in first at the start, but I either bump into items people are holding or get bombarded at the last second.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Hmm..cyber slick doesn't seem to be a good fit for this kart. I'll give it another round

 

[Woffls]

UGH. There is nothing worse than overshooting the last corner on that haunted mansion and getting stuck behind the tree

 

[wastewater]

Great playing with you guys

I'll be back on tommorow

 

[Rubixcuba]

More Rainbow Road !!

 

[Azure J]

I'm having so much more fun with this than I ever had with any Mario Kart prior.

 

[Recall]

A single mistake and boom, dead last. Everyone is so ruthless too and I love it.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

I apologize for the lighting bolt guys

 

[Beats]

I'm having so much more fun with this than I ever had with any Mario Kart prior.

Yeah, same here. The online is a blast and I'm liking the item balance.

Still would have liked Baby Park to return though.

 

[rawktapus]

Man, I can not drift with sports bikes. I think I'm gonna stick to karts.

 

[Jucksalbe]

Juckesalbe, sorry for the red shell on the finish line lol

I remember that, that hurt!

 

[Woffls]

Holy shit I fell off then got blue-shelled on the last corner. Still got 1st. That was close.

 

[Telephoto999]

The simplicity of the online and how smooth it is, is absolutely amazing.

After playing the travesty that was MLB the show 2014 on Ps4 as far as online goes, this is such a breath of fresh air.

No problem finding and joining my friend quickly. No problem jumping in with randoms quickly and easily, and the responsiveness and smoothness of the online is amazing. I am sure it's using some insane interpolation but the illusion that it creates is spot on.

 

[Roo]

Holy shit
Mario Circuit was EPIC

 

[nintendoman58]

I apologize for the lighting bolt guys

It was almost a flawless run for me then that came in and ruined the glory.

I'm just kidding of course. Good race.

 

[Azure J]

Whoever is Chase, I hate you. A lot. You just COULDN'T go around me with that star huh?

 

[MrSaturn99]

ughhhhh was doing so good there too

 

[serenewarfare]

Whoever is Chase, I hate you. A lot. You just COULDN'T go around me with that star huh?

That would be me. And no, I couldn't.

 

[Azure J]

Holy shit
Mario Circuit was EPIC

That cluster of people doing bump boosts.

[Mario Kart Intensifies]

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Oh man I stole kureransu's star from his Item 8 and hit him like 3 times with it

 

[foxuzamaki]

Ill be joining you guys soon, just will play a bit more of the single player, so much stuff I havent unlocked yet.

 

[Kureransu]

Oh man I stole kureransu's star from his Item 8 and hit him like 3 times with it

and I was bitter...
EDIT:

I feel vindicated after wario mountain!

 

[BruiserBear]

Was lucky to have a neighbor who bought the game yesterday and was willing to loan it to me for a few hours. After 2 hours of playing.....

+Visuals are pretty fantastic.
+Replays are fun to watch and mess with.
+Difficulty so far seems perfectly reasonable. If I race really well, I win every time, even on 150cc. That's so awesome for a racing game fan like me. That's how it should be.

-The frame duplicating problem is really noticeable for me. It's not ruining the experience, but it's definitely a real blemish. I'd be so happy if it gets fixed via an update.
-I really wish I had the option to put the information on the screen like the old games. Track map, racers position list, and even times during grand prix races. It's useless on the gamepad screen.
-It would be so awesome if the game incorporated online leaderboards.

 

[daripad]

From first to last at Donut Plains :'(
