Did you record any of this by any chance?

I tried to. My capture device glitched out, and the video cut out partway through. It did that last time I tried to record MK8 too. I need to figure out what's wrong with it.

I'll upload what I have, but I think I only got about half of it in total.

I see. That's a shame.
Will be waiting to see what could be saved from that footage.

Are Mario Kart 7's server permanently offline.

I can't go on, but I can't find any details on Google. I know the Wii/DS version have been off for a long time, but MK7?
 
I just saw Coaster's Smash video. What the hell was P3 even doing? lol

ah that was you? I somehow had this feeling that Coaster was playing with you while watching his video. lol

Yeah, it was Heath as Shelk, Bahamut24 as ROB, and Daniel (also from KartGAF) as Alph. I typed that up under the info heh.

Anyway I don't mind playing with fellow KartGaffers in Smash, but may play MK8 tonight since Azure may stream and play. Otherwise, may play Splatoon as well.


I had to hold back some of my laughter since I'm at a computer lab with other people.... :p

Poor Enforced...

wait who's the one providing the color commentary lol

People who watch Azure's stream can also comment in the chatroom, you have to sign up for Twitch to watch and comment, I believe.

I actually think a large part of it is because on Wiimmfi you have mostly players who actually want to, you know... Race.

I wish I could say the same for KartGAF. I really wish I could.
I honestly think it's a mix of both and "wanting to race" won't stop people from trying to screw someone else if they're given a chance.

Mario Kart Wii definitely has more flexibility than Mario Kart 8 when it comes to skills as items are not as prominent as I used to believe.
Green shells are damn slow, red shells couldn't be any more stupid even if they tried and bananas are basically harmless. Outside of the blue shell, MKW is more of a defensive rather than offensive game.

MK8 is all the opposite as "useless" items in previous games are now designed to be brutal.
A single banana can fuck an entire race.

Both have their chaotic moments and to that add the fact that we all want to tear each other apart and you have the average Mario Kart room.

Trust me, if all KartGAF were playing MKW right now, "calmer" is not a word I'd use to describe the game lol

Screw that give me baby metal mario and baby pink gold peach. /s
I fear for the balance for the next mario kart if they go the double dash route lol.

I really hope we get a Double Dash sequel for the next game.
Get rid of special items so it's fair game for everyone and for the love of God no more furry baby and metal clones.

Can't think of any gimmick they can implement to make the new game feel "fresh" tho.
The drill idea they had before anti-gravity was the worst I've even heard in my entire life for a racing game (or any.. for that matter)

Two characters per kart plus all the other stuff going on in MK8 would be a nice yet unobtrusive feature for the series.

I wouldn't be opposed to specials not being exclusive like for King boo and Petey. Remove the size restrictions for karts, everyone has the same stats, and we're golden.

Here are the pieces of last night's MKWii/CTGP-R session I was able to get:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7EV60XGZfU - the first several races
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbvb3672Nu0 - just the Wario Colosseum race
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdSfwFs1TFk - the last two CTWW races we did, and the first few regular WW races

A little over an hour's worth of footage total. Wish I was able to get more than that, but my POS capture box started freaking out and stopped recording several times. Hopefully I can figure out why it's doing that, because it's only a month and a half old. :/

Will watch when I get home from gym.
