You took time to notice. I can't join if no one leaves, though.
By the way, that green shell owned you.

Man I love that shy guy level. It has so much atmosphere. I wish the big N would use those guys in the 3D games more often.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
so many great tracks in this game. I do wish Waluigi Pinball had made it in as a retro (love that track) but I've narrowed it down to two faves:
Sunshine Airport and Electrodrome (this is my new "Waluigi Pinball"). SO GOOD <3

Warning. Results may vary.

Haha I know. When you hit both bananas I was like lol that's awesome.
Two questions for you guys:
1. If I have MK7 and enjoy it but don't play it much, should I grab this? I feel like I'd play it more on a console, but I don't know if it's different enough from 7 for me to drop $60 on it.
And 2. How often is the gamepad screen used?
Oh, and is the gamepad the preferable control method? Or the pro controller? I don't have a pro cotntroller, but I might grab one for this.

bullet billing across the finish line. I have no shame.
This x100 fix the god damn game nintendo.
Earlier today I got two Bullet Bills on Toad's Turnpike. 10th to 3rd. It was amazing and it was Mario Kart.
Man I'm surprised by how freaking good even the average gamer is at Mario Kart. I mean every damn game I've played with friends of all different stripes (8 person rooms) has been insanely competitive, rubber-banding or not.
Another thing I've observed: my brother on tilt controls can pown everybody. Everybody acts like this is shocking news. is that the norm?

Yup. Someone left without voting?
Well, I can only speak for myself but I thought MK7 was a piece of shit and horribly executed in almost every way, and I think that MK8 is one of the most polished delightful games Nintendo has produced in ten years.
Not a particular fan of Mario Kart since the SNES or 64 days.
Gamepad/Pro Controller all the way. My brother is constantly getting screwed over by Motion Controls playing funny on him. All it takes is one goof in the sensor.

Never played cloudtop cruise online before. This should be fun.
It won't end well...
After 1030 points the system resets your VR.

It feels fresh to me after playing 7, but that may just be me. Racing with other gaffers is mad fun. You don't have to use the gamepad. I actually prefer the wheel.

Bleh, lobby's full. Don't really care to spectate an unkown number of matches.
Good games guys!
Quite a few close ones today. Good games!

I didnt particularly enjoy 7 but 8 is awesome. A lot of care and attention when into this game. Probably the most interesting and most amount of care ever put into a Mario Kart title. Level design is great and the anti-gravity is a great addition to the series.
