Day one if the online is as good or better then in Strikers.

 

[Talladega Knight]

Imagine typing in 15 friend codes for one game. :lol

Imagine all you want. You'd still do it. It's Mario Kart ONLINE.

 

[MutFox]

Online is just gravy for me.

Day 1.

And about the friend codes...
They're per Mii, and once done they're done for all games right?

 

[Whoaness]

Imagine all you want. You'd still do it. It's Mario Kart ONLINE.

Sorry, I stop liking Mario Kart after MK64.

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

guys I just saw the boxart, there's no wifi logo

Its not on the smash box either but we all, should, know that its going to be there. Lets no worry.

 

[MutFox]

Sorry, I stop liking Mario Kart after MK64.

Good, then this is the perfect thread for you.

 

[ZeoVGM]

Sorry, I stop liking Mario Kart after MK64.

There was.. two games after it.

And if you didn't like MKDS, then I don't know what to say.

Other than point out your questionable taste.

ONM UK (yeah, i know) announces MK:Wii includes 16 player online battle + "stunts" + all DS parcours (including classics?) and offcourse new tracks.

If it can pull off 16 players online then I would be surprised if SSBB cannot pull off a 4-player battle royal. Hopefully Nintendo confirms the latter sooner and ease my pain and concerns.

LOL it was a joke, there's no boxart yet

 

[Ranger X]

Anyways they should start by making a Mario Kart game that can rival SMK.

 

[Shahadan]

Who cares, snaking will kill it anyway.

No, I didn't like MKDS. The drifting concept didn't cut it for me.

Good thing this is the Wii and not the DS, so my friend codes have already been entered for my regular friends.

Exactly what I tought about that ^^

 

[MutFox]

Is Nintendo's NetCode really that good?

 

[Windu]

do they have those stupid go-carts from double dash? I hated those.

???


if true ... OMG

 

[Crushed]

Go-karts? You mean... the things they drive in Mario Kart?

 

[DSWii60]

Will this use the second GameCube

Spoiler

i.e. is there a graphical upgrade compared to MK: DD?

Lag is a non-issue in Mario Kart. In Smash Bros it would break the game.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Nintendo alluded to this at E3, so I believe.

 

[Kafel]

Snaking will kill snakers' shoulders so we won't be annoyed for too long.

 

[Kobayashi]

Day one purchase confirmed.

.

 

[Windu]

No I mean do they have these stupid things:

instead of something like this:

 

[OnWarmerMusic]

No I mean do they have these stupid things:

instead of something like this:

Probably; MKDS had both standard carts and the crazy-town versions.

 

[MutFox]

No I mean do they have these stupid things:

instead of something like this:

They have those most likely, not a fan myself,
but I really don't care, aslong as the gameplay is good.

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

LOL it was a joke, there's no boxart yet

I tend to jump straight into deniel when my hopes are questioned.

 

[DSWii60]

You mean Reggie explicitly confirmed Mario Kart Wii would be online (including online battle mode) during the conference.

 

[polluar]

???


if true ... OMG

it will depend on how large will be the maps...

16 players on a stamps will be useless and for sure not really fun

 

[Insaniac]

lol, i don't understand why you'd want classic controls. It'd totally defeat the purpose of being on the Wii.

 

[masud]

No I mean do they have these stupid things:

instead of something like this:

You guys din't see the E3 video? Single carts.

 

[MutFox]

lol, i don't understand why you'd want classic controls. It'd totally defeat the purpose of being on the Wii.

Thing about the Wii, it can do any type of game... ANY.
It's up to Nintendo.

 

[OnWarmerMusic]

You guys din't see the E3 video? Single carts.

Yeah, single riders on the carts, but I thought Windu was referring to the "Koopa Troopa rides in a shell instead of a standard go-kart" bit.

 

[AdmiralViscen]

Imagine typing in 15 friend codes for one game. :lol

So you've never played a Nintendo game online? Along with anyone who quoted you.

 

[TrueReligion]

I'd personally rather have classic controls for this game.

 

[E-phonk]

16 players = 4 ppl on 4wii?

 

[ksamedi]

whoops....:/

I saw what you did there

 

[Elfforkusu]

Stunts in midair?

Online Mario Kart 2049 confirmed?

 

[RagnarokX]

???


if true ... OMG

Online battle mode was already confirmed...

 

[:Motorbass]

HI IM DAISY!

 

[VultureDude]

Now I actually have a reason to buy this game. I was getting tired of Mario Kart, the franchise, but online battle has always been my dream.

 

[SomeDude]

Nintendo needs to release this game with about 60 regular tracks and about 25 battle mode tracks. Otherwise I probably won't get it.

 

[Varjet]

Yeah, single riders on the carts, but I thought Windu was referring to the "Koopa Troopa rides in a shell instead of a standard go-kart" bit.

It has both, just like MKDS

 

[MutFox]

Make this the ultimate Mario Kart, and put in a Track Editor.
Mii characters wouldn't be bad either...

 

[ChadPaulson]

Looking forward to this, minus the friend codes of course. I'm particularly looking forward to battle mode.

What?

 

[TheGreatDave]

Nah, he left some sort of cliffhanger about how many players it would support. Of this, I am 76% positive.

 

[SomeDude]

What?

Nintendo released Mario Kart Double Dash with like 6 battle mode maps. Where's the variety?

 

[Visualante]

Someone made this in source. To be honest I'm not getting it unless it has classic controls.

 

[TheGreatDave]

I'd never play it with the classic controller. There's no reason why the controls should be worse than the fantastic ones in Excite Truck.
