Looks awesome.
Sign me up. Put it on the fucking revolution with wifi multiplayer that can be played online via a wifi hotspot in my house, and sign me up.
 
Looking more interesting than a great deal of Double Dash was.

Kind of wish DD didn't introduce them holding up the weapons like that, though, the drivers driving one-handed has got to look a bit awkward in motion, and I hated dropping my weapons in DD every time I smacked into (or was hit by) something the wrong way.

Let's just hope Pac-Man gets to his rave in time.
 
So lets see last time we had images and videos from this, it was looking good but now it sucks???i swear sometimes this forum is unbearable....
 
Yeah, it's only announced for the arcade as of now. A lot of people have hopes that a GC port will be announced at E3 this year.
 
The only thing that makes me cringe in those pictures are the people's headshots. It's a cool idea, but they just look stupid.
 
It may not look graphically great, but it looks like tons of fun. Hopefully it comes to GameCube or Revolution sometime.
 
Worst problem with DD look wasn't the graphics but the whole concept to the point that made a game pretty disturbing.
The problem with DD wasn't it was kiddy or not but that felt like the gayest gaming experience to ever grace a console.

I beat the entire game but never felt comfortable with it. It's a pitty because there were some track designs that were pretty good.
 
I'm not crazy about this because it looks like a step back from Double Dash. I'm not too miffed by them cutting the dual-character thing, but look at the tracks -- most of them look very simple. I rather liked some of Double Dash's insane tracks.
 
I loved Yoshi's Story. It's a nice game. Call it kiddy but not gay. DD is gay, I don't see beauty there I just see dumbness of someone trying to do cute things and totally failling at it. From Peach's kart to the Baby Mario's one I felt like if Nintendo was making a joke of MK series.

God, Yoshi's Story was HORRIBLE and probably the only game that could actually qualify as "gay", and even that's just in joking.
 
I, for one, did not notice any homosexual overtones in Double Dash. That is, besides particular animations when Mario and Luigi share a kart. But I'd rather not entertain such ideas, especially since they are brothers.
 
Damn, those are terrible screenshots. Not because the game looks bad, but because japanese websites still use terrible compression when it comes to images. It's not 1998 anymore! X_X

Just looked at the website. Every image is grainy as hell. :lol It looks like they went crazy with the sharpen tool in photoshop.

=Gayest man to ever play a console?

I'm really looking forward to it, I hope a jump is back in. Is the jump back in? if you could time the jumps to dodge things from behind, that would be hot.
 
Ourumov = Matt on IGN?

Game looks great. Nintendo needs to bring this game out on Gamecube, possibly with a RAM expansion pak.
 
I sure hope they put the hop back in this one. I think it looks alright. Nothing spectacular but that really isn't why I would play it anyway. It's the classic MK gameplay I want.
