illdog Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I'm looking forward to this. Its hard to get a sense of how fast the game play is because they use dramatic angles to show off the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 May 30th! I saw some decent footage the other day, will try and find it. Edit: can't find it. Was 60fps footage though, and it looked very smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroed Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Eurogamer have a comparison video of the new retro tracks and the originals. Donut Plains 3 looks amazing. Hoping for some good online tournaments on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craymen Edge Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Never been the biggest fan of Mario Kart (although I thought the DS one was really good). But man, that does look really pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 It's more proof that aesthetics > graphical grunt. It's a shame it'll be ignored by most people due to the platform it's on, it looks like they nailed it from the footage I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I really hope we all pick this up and make an effort for some online japery. Well those with a a Wii U anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyKurosaki Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Proper love Mario Kart, picking this up wil likely be a priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Yup, I'm getting it. I'm not really a Mario Kart guy either, at least not in a big way, but it's one of those games that's handy to own for local shenanigans. But I'd be up for some MFG multi, fo' sho'.

Pikman Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 What can I do to help turn this possibility into a reality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Sit and wait darling, sit and wait. You and AndyKurosaki are now top of my list. Edit: Just watched some MK8 videos and I feel more excited about this version that I have for a Mario Kart game in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
