New love letter to MK8:

Mario Kart 8 is the best Mario Kart ever | A.V. Club

 

[Papercuts]

I just witnessed karma and it brought a tear to my eye.

 

[blast processed]

Seriously. Did three races, came in last or second to last all three times.

I've been coming in last or second to last almost every game playing on a kart. Changed to a bike and went to 5th.

 

[Smashkirby]

What a screwing over of 1st place, Gawd DAMN

 

[Talamius]

Get the USB charge cable. Best Wii U investment I've made.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Wait, cyber slick and slick have different properties? I thought the stats were the same...

Hidden stats? When will somebody lift the curtain on the full extent of this... how long did it take with MK Wii?

HMMMMM? Odd. The turning was waaayyyy different for me.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

dat was such bullshit...

im just so mad right now fam...

 

[daripad]

Dat revenge woth BlindSword, sory for the red shell

 

[Net_Wrecker]

2 lighting strikes though?

 

[Willkiller]

Gunna do a GP then jump in the tournament.

BE prepared.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

Dolphin coral:

Red turtle - lighting - blue turtle.

All on last two curves of last lap. It's a miracle that I finished in third still.

 

[Feltrol]

Have to go battery is edad

Have you tried the brightness at 1 and power saving mode? It may last a little longer with those options.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

yo Papercuts







rooooooooffffffflllllllllll

 

[Kureransu]

dat was such bullshit...

im just so mad right now fam...

felt good to me!

 

[Roo]

Why do you like that stage so much?

I really like the fact that it's a track that is constantly changing. It makes the race more dynamic. Also I like the music.
It's a great track

 

[Papercuts]

fuck that entire thing. coin oasis raining down on my item boxes

I did horn the fuck outta that blue shell tho

 

[Raxus]

One person consistently gets first since everyone eats each other alive.

 

[Talamius]

y u pick N64 RR

y u do dis

 

[Smiles and Cries]

The perfect trolling track, in other words.

It lasted me 6 hours so its ok lol, i can use my wiimotes but its time for a rest .

 

[Darknessxk]

Wow, played my first 3 races and you guys are brutal. Finished 4, 11 and 4.....

 

[Azure J]

Rainbow Road 64 started off as my favorite race in the short time I've played this game online.

Then I got bopped. ;___;

 

[MrSaturn99]

4th on RR 8)

Who was that that knocked me down from 3rd though? lol

 

[Net_Wrecker]

The volcano track though


I'm godawful at it. Absolutely terribad.

 

[Holy Order Sol]

Not picking up enough coins REALLY hurts at times.

 

[daripad]

Second place and the only item I get ate coins :'(

 

[XiaNaphryz]

That rainbow road ending. 5th to 10th

I was first for like 75% of that race.

1st to 5th I think.

At least I got my first first place online finish the race before!

 

[marink]

2nd place, not bad.

 

[Woffls]

It's an awful lot more difficult to catch up from behind in this game. Either that or the brutality of GAF MK is too unforgiving.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

It's GBA Mario Circuit that usually thwarts me.

 

[serenewarfare]

So many bombs on that RR a bit ago. Gave me the opportunity to speed by the carnage to 3rd.

 

[MrSaturn99]

SECCOOOONNNNNDDD YEAHHYEEYEAHAHHHH

 

[XiaNaphryz]

It's an awful lot more difficult to catch up from behind in this game. Either that or the brutality of GAF MK is too unforgiving.

It's the nature of 150cc races and aggressive drivers. Random online public games I've found it a lot easier than in the GAF races, lol.

 

[sinxtanx]

finally tried some online tonight, so much better than racing against AI

I'll eventually get around to adding my NNID to the spreadsheet

 

[marink]

Somehow I dodged a blue shell in the luigi's mansion stage. 1st baby!

 

[Angel Abaddon]

Been playing with some friends and discovered the different style of drift for superbikes. Took a bit of getting used to but I think I prefer it now. Related - is it better to drift early or later on a corner? Does drifting reduce your speed at all?

 

[spyroflame0487]

Which movie are you seeing?

Awesome to see Nintendo doing more marketing.

Lol It was Maleficent. It was funny too because I was talking to my buddy about playing it all day yesterday and then I'm like "oh here's the commercial you can just see what I'm talking about" lol

It was nice to hear people in the theater talking about "how cool it looked" too.

YOU'RE IN A THEATER

QUIT USING YOU PHONE

AND FIND AN OUTLET TO PLUG IN YOUR WII U

AND PLAY MARIO KART 8

I wish! (it was before the movie tho lol)

 

[Willkiller]

I think I'm in a separate room on my own

 

[steveovig]

I finally got into the Tourney and got owned but it was fun. I think part of the reason was I was using Wario and had Speed jacked up to almost max. All they kept giving me were mushrooms, which didn't help.

 

[gotstrangepowers]

In between races, on the top left of the screen is 1/6 and a star. What does this mean? I can toggle it to change it to 2/6.

 

[lt519]

If anyone is interested I want to set up a tournament tonight from 8pm to 9pm EST.

I'll take the first 11 people that PM me and send them the tournament code at 7:30. Refrain from entering the lobby until 8 exactly so no points are scored. This will be standard racing, 150cc, all items, and completely random courses.

Edit: please do not enter unless you can race for the entire hour and are 100% positive you can make it for the whole hour

No takers?

 

[Ramirez]

We need more people on, 2-3 ppl races suck.

 

[Talamius]

Achievement unlocked: won a GAF race

 

[BlindSwordsmanZ]

Suck it Dangle. LOL

 

[Jaded Alyx]

No takers?

You can't gain points outside of the tournament time, so no need to tell people not to enter. They can enter and practice.

 

[Azure J]

GAF Mario Karters are violent as hell. Crusin along consistently coming in 2nd or 1st most of the race to get combo'd like I'm in MUGEN or something

 

[Talamius]

We need more people on, 2-3 ppl races suck.

12 in our lobby. Must be overflow

 

[Net_Wrecker]

2 crazy 8s in a row then a star

that's what it takes just to get 3rd

 

[Kureransu]

JC, if i were papercuts, i'd never talk to you again for that blue shell.... 1st to 7th... lol
