Mario Kart 8 |OT| 8 oW

Someone in here that redeemed the Club Nintendo Code - could you please tell me, if it's really possible to redeem it and then choose the free game at a later time? I just want to make sure that it's possible.

Yes. That's what I've done. Registered my pin#. I'll chose what game I want later.
 
blue shell. every. fucking. time. I wish I could turn it off. I don't mind anything else.

I've had about three occasions now where I'll get a great item when I'm behind (like the 8), and immediately (literally immediately) get thunder'd after and lose it.

also I wish it would stop asking if I wanted to post to miiverse. Is there any way to turn this off?

aside from minor gripes the game is GORGEOUS and plays so well
 
Yeah I would rather have the babies out if I could pick. The Koopa Kids are fun, but there's just so many koopas if you count Koopa Troopa and Lakitu.

And about Mt. Wario, I just felt it was too long. I only played it once though so maybe I'll change my mind. Zig zagging through trees was fun.

Also we seriously need a MK8 picture thread.

That last DK one is incredible. I love his expressions in this game.
 
:(

I really wanted to buy this today.

It shouldn't stop you. It's noticeable but it's not distracting at all, not even close to being 1% of a dealbreaker

but this fucking boomerang and this god damn rubberbanding tho

this game is like a drug, the kind you crave until you have it, and then comes the regret lmao

(buy it and pick up a scream pillow too)

So online you can't customize the items? That sucks =/
 
The music keeps skipping on me...reall strange it was great last night.

Digital version.

load times are bizarre now too...maybe I need to restart the system.
 
Guys

I'm really close to buying a Wii U, pretty much just for this game and like two others. Please, talk some sense into me. Am I doing life right??

Nobody's stopping you. I picked it up at best buy during lunch, and I got in a couple quick races at the demo kiosk since I can't play until a few more hours (damn work0.

When I focused on background elements purposely during a turn (so that the background was panning at moderate speed) I could see the tiny hitch. But when focused on my racer and the track/obstacles ahead I didn't once notice it.

Maybe you're more eagle eyed than I, but for me it's not going to be an issue whatsoever.
 
Man I cant wait to get home and play this game. Gonna bring it over a friend house and have a Mario Kart night. Gonna be awesome!

Only one gamepad can be used on the Wii U at a time right?
 
Just got my copy from Target this morning! Going to start playing and unlocking things in a bit but don't feel afraid to add me! Also gonna have a friend over to play this game for hoursssss

NNID: Revven

:D

I've just send you a request, but given my copy has been badly scratched, I won't be able to play until I sort it out with the EB Games I've went to.

If you can afford it and understand that there's going to be virtually zero third party support in the future then go ahead. It's already got a very solid library of first party titles.
 
So, does anyone have any idea of how many coins are needed to unlock all the non-gold vehicle parts?

If one of the other games is The Wonderful 101 then yes.
 
I keep to be annoyed by the aliasing. Maybe i was expecting it to be si clean from the pictures and vidéo

Just took this. I needed to pause but u can see on the fences on left side. Its everywhere. I really dislike < 1080p. Mostly with no AA solution. I think that mario 3D is better looking and cleaner

But game is really good
 
I think I'm actually going to give up getting 3 stars on all cups for the mean time. There's too many times where that stupid coin leaves you defenceless.

Anyone here in the tournament?
 
Holy shit.

Just had an email from Nintendo about the Yodel fuck up. They are now saying they are working with Yodel to get it delivered for tomorrow before 12 but have also given me a download code for the game.

Downloading now. That's amazing of them.

It's honestly the perfect companion to a gaming PC/PS4/XBone. If you've got one of those already and can afford a WiiU than it has already a really solid library and it' soon a have probably so ore more masterpieces when all is said and done, if you can afford it go for it.

It just can't sustain itself as your only gaming platform, but I own all the platforms mentioned above and I'm very happy with my purchase, if I had to choose only two of those than one of them would definitely be a WiiU.

If you're still on "old-gen" and can afford only one gaming platform then I can't in all conscience recommend it, unless you can't live a gaming life without Nintendo's franchises.
It also goes without saying that if you're interested in retro gaming the WiiU is pretty much the best console ever conceived: Wii, GBA, NDS, N64, Super Nintendo, TG16, Neo-Geo, Megadrive, Master System, C64, NES. Even more if you're going to softmod it (GameCube, Amiga, DOS...)
