So, once the DLC arrives, do you guys think we should expect it to come with stamps for the new characters, tracks and time trials using said characters as bosses for each new track?
I thought it was a given thing but I don't doubt one bit Nintendo would omit something so obvious

Similar to this:

I don't know about stamps but they would have to add new time trials for the new tracks. I think that's more or less a given.
 
I'm annoyed that the upcoming MK8 bundle is Walmart-exclusive. I'll be using Amazon credit to help pay for my Wii U so yeah.

But, I want SM3DW so I'm thinking of just seeing if I can get that one instead.

Just finished playing for the night and I'm under 50 coins off the 10,000! I will finally get that last part tomorrow. This is without a doubt my most played game so far this year.

Nearly at 7,000VR too.

I would be surprised if they don't include more stamps with the DLC.

You get a win for every person you finish ahead of in a race, and a loss for every person you finish behind. So, for example, if you come in 4th in a 12-player race, you will get 8 wins and 3 losses for that race.

No idea about the balloon thing, I don't play Battle much.

But I've counted and it doesn't work out like that. I have no idea how it actually works.

Ah, you're right. I just tested it--got first in an 11-player race, and only got 5 wins. So I'm not really sure!

EDIT: Just tried again. Got first in a 10-man race, and got 8 wins this time. The only possibility I can think of is that maybe people are quitting in the middle of the race, and it's not counting wins against them.

I imagine it's either that or they factor in VR in some way.

All right, I'll come in for a bit.

In both rooms, I was the highest-VR player in the room by a significant margin (I'm at about 9700, everyone else ranged from 4000 to 8000). Didn't look like there was a big difference between the two rooms.

EDIT: Lost my lightning to a lightning. That's a new one. Guess I wasted time checking for stars...

EDIT 2: ...comm error...

EDIT 3: ANOTHER comm error. Yeah, they certainly made the online more stable, all right.
