retroed Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 Battle Mode looks fantastic. They have one of the SNES courses in there!

I still want to pick up Star Fox 64 3D when it goes cheap, too. I rented it back along, but would like to own it when it drops in price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time of some footage from the Leaf Cup. <iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8Cw6xvEohBQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> This could well be the definitive Mario Kart, especially if the online is as good as I hope it will be.

Sambob Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 We will definitely need to figure out how we will communicate whilst playing, does anyone know whats in-game with regards to chat? Also how many online players? need to find out....wikipediaaaaaaaa! EDIT: 8, awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANGERMAN Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 dont they usually score out of 40? Also they're a nonsense, they score so as not to upset people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 Yeah, they scored it 10, 9, 9, 9 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 well, half awesome.. There’s no chatting per se but players can offer their thoughts via preset responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambob Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 The astounding part is that a Community can support up to 10,000 members. Of course, they all can’t play against each other at the same time What do you mean it doesnt support 10,000 players at once?! worst game ever. I thought it would end up being the preset messages, but thats not the end of the world, would have been a nice bonus but its not game breaking. I like that you can have the community code....but what does it mean, how is it different to friend codes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I suspect it means everyone on say neogaf could use that code without each of them needing everyones friendcodes. Not really a problem we're going to have I wouldn't have thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroed Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Retro Studios weren't just roped in to work on a Donkey Kong course, they have done all sixteen of the classic tracks. Nintendo: Mario Kart 3DS completed as "act of emergency"Nintendo considered completing Mario Kart 7 on 3DS by the end of this year "an act act of emergency", the game's producer has admitted. Mario Kart 7 initially started life as an internal project staffed by eight people, producer Hideki Konno revealed in a new Iwata Asks interview (via NeoGAF). But several production designers were moved to work on 3DS launch title Nintendogs + Cats to ensure that game was ready for the handheld's release line-up. Nintendo eventually called on the services of Metroid Prime Trilogy and Donkey Kong Country developer Retro Studios to make sure Mario Kart 7 was finished this year. Nintendo previously stated Retro had helped design a Donkey Kong Country-themed course. It now appears Retro worked on revamping the game's entire 16 classic courses line-up, leaving Nintendo's team free to create the game's roster of 16 fresh tracks. Eurogamer.

retroed Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Just reordered with ShopTo. I cancelled last night as I found a good price on Zavvi, saving six quid. But then I thought, actually I would like this on or before launch day, so moved it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
