Mario Kart 8 |OT2| I'm using tilt controls!

Re: the title, is the game even remotely playable using tilt controls? I haven't really tried in this game but sounds like it would be bad, it was quite bad on the Wii version.

Yeah, I'm having loads of fun with tilt controls using the gamepad. Working through 3-starring the 150 cc cups, and consistently doing well online. When I am not competitive it's because I lost the Obliterated By Items Lottery in that race, not because of fundamentally sloppy handling.

Though I also don't remember having any problem getting tilt controls to work in the wii version either.
 
Hey guys, I'd love to get in on the tournaments but my gamepad is broken so it won't let me input the code for it. Could some of you guys add me (JambiSun) so maybe I can join that way? I'd really appreciate it!

Well, I only care about looks so Daisy on Sports Bike with Sponge Wheels look like they'll be my permanent lineup.

Well the thread is our personal chatting service apparently
It's basically IRC for the race tourney. Probably why it's apparently the first OT2 for a Nintendo title? I'm still not convinced about that one, but I'm sure it's the quickest.

I completely disagree with your bottom 3, but at least we can agree that Shy Guy Falls is the shit.

What? No way. Pokemon alone made it to at least 3. Maaaaaybe for a wiiu exclusive? IDK.

Nintendo title, probably not. Wii U title, much more likely.

I as having some weird lag issues yesterday so hopefully I can play some tonight.

Also only concerned about the looks, so that would be matching color theme and design (round to round etc.) plus some extra (paraglider).

What should I even care about in the statistics?
My speed stat is pretty low but my acceleration is up there and I'm a featherweight.
