I'll join in a few minutes.



For some reason the "hard" staff ghosts aren't in the game. I saw a list of the staff's actual "best times" somewhere (think it was from a magazine?) and they were pretty good.

I wonder why they didn't use their best times?

 

[Choppasmith]

surprised your still hanging in there

Figured I'll get lucky sooner or later. I can't seem to figure out that first mount Wario shortcut.

 

[Gattuso]

slid right off haha

 

[chaosblade]

Didn't think I'd make up for screwing up. Stopped drifting too early on that first turn.

So yesterday in Shibuya Nintendo were doing awesome advertising for mk8.

they had a bunch of main Mario kart characters dressed up and in go karts driving around the streets of Shibuya, and were even doing victory dances and whatnot whilst stationary at the lights and blasting music. I was able to take some dodgy pics, but not,many, a lot of people trying to.

pretty rad tho.

Anyone know if Nintendoland is included in the Mario Kart 8 bundle? Some websites say that it is included, some don't.

 

[chaosblade]

Room is getting bigger, my luck is going to run out soon.

I don't think it is, at least not normally.

 

[Gattuso]

how did I not get an item box?

Ok, thanks! I'll send them an email and ask.

 

[chaosblade]

Yep, looks like I'm done winning. Never drift after that shortcut for some reason, don't know what's up with that.

 

[Roo]

What the...

That sounds awesome! Is there any video if it?

 

[chaosblade]

Green path on Electrodome is so bad. They should just delete that, track would be better for it.

 

[ajim]

Not that im aware of. I was lucky to get the photos i got because I caught them at the lights and had to fight through the crowd. Was so awesome tho.

edit: just googled.

[chaosblade]

Bullshit lightning. How come everyone else got taken forward but I got sent backward?

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Everyone getting there bananas ready!
And that Yoshi costume. :lol

 

[Roo]

Just when I thought the results couldn't be any more bullshit.

 

[Roo]

Nothing but fucking coins to fucking defend myself. Fuck this game.

 

[chaosblade]

Tournament closed? Boo


Everybody to Frantic!

 

[Gattuso]

[HypnoDarkrai]

Closed.
Let's all go to Frantic

 

[Choppasmith]

I'm just hopping on over to Frantic

 

[Roo]

Looks like it's Waluigi time

 

[chaosblade]

Couldn't have nailed that trick->boost pad->logs any better.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Looks like a few more tracks and I'll have beat all the staff times.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Looks like it's Waluigi time

Ummm, you misspelled Luigi.

 

[Roo]

Ummm, you misspelled Luigi.

Did I? :}

 

[chaosblade]

YESSSS SECOND PLACE.

I don't know how but that's awesome.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Did I? :}

Technically no, but you're not using Waluigi....

Baby Daisy's tricks are way better than Baby Peach's.

 

[chaosblade]

Whoever kept unloading those greens behind them kept hitting me.

 

[Choppasmith]

We'll I'm done for the night GGs everyone.

 

[Roo]

Technically no, but you're not using Waluigi....

Ehh... I made that comment when we switched to frantic and we were spectating Chaosblade and other guy using Waluigi.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Ya know, I've never noticed the shuttle in the new rainbow road is actually a damn blooper till I got the stamp xD

Annnnnnnd every staff ghost beaten!

 

[chaosblade]

Turnpike Trolls win again.

 

[Roo]

Turnpike Trolls win again.

[chaosblade]

That green shell dodging on the first lap. Had to save that replay because I want to see that again.

 

[Gattuso]

[Roo]

It feels amazing when you win in your favorite track.
Grumble <3

Tell me about it.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Meh, I'll take 2nd.

 

[Roo]

Argh!

 

[Jeff Vader]

What the hell happened there?

 

[chaosblade]

I thought the horn destroyed boomerangs? Guess not.


Last one for me.

 

[Roo]

That blue shell almost hit me u.u

 

[Jeff Vader]

I meant to drop my bomb but I instead launched it forward D<

 

[Roo]

[Jeff Vader]

I think it's probably a good idea to quit while i'm ahead. It was fun though!

 

[Roo]

I kept drifting the wrong way lol

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Grumble foiled twice.

 

[Roo]
