Mario Kart 8
Surprised this doesn't have a thread of it's own.
How many posters have the game? I have created a tournament on the offchance a few of us have it. TPWW Championship. Every Sunday Sunday SUNDAY at 7pm UK time, which is 11am on the westcoast of the US and 2pm on the eastcoast. It runs for 3 hours each week but is accessible anytime for unranked TPWW only races. Also has its own private Miiverse forum. Code: 0668-7470-5005 "Sneeze into your Antecubital Fossa!" |

Had a bash at it, was stolen away for a birthday gift though. I would rather be humbled by people I know than random Japanese kids though so might join your tournament.

What's your Nintendo Network name? I only have Kalyx and Hasney from TPWW in my friend list. I'm unsure how many people even have a Wii U here.

If you go to your friend list and select yourself, it should be listed there.

I've spoken to a few people about it. Some didn't know it existed, others didn't know it was a whole new thing and some just couldn't get past the name and were put off.

You can send me a friend request. My Wii U name is the same as my TPWW name. The more, the merrier.

Played for the first time this weekend. Very impressed. Seems an odd decision to have ALL the Koopalings; not a complaint just didn't realize there was that kind of demand for them or whatever.

It's cool they're in but I'm sure it's roster padding so characters like Birdo, Diddy etc can be sold later as either DLC or Amiibo figures.
I'd rather have the Koopalings as padding over the baby and metal characters as padding. |

For those in Europe/UK, the free Mercedes DLC car pack arrives on August 27th. A patch is also expected to arrive soon for all regions.

The free DLC pack arrives in North America on the same date as well. http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/mari...aug/2300-9300/ |

A bunch of potential DLC stuff was supposedly discovered by hackers recently. Only images were found but could give an idea of what Nintendo could be planning for future DLC for the game.

I really hope they make some new tracks. Would make a great game even better.

Also really wish they would make a new Diddy Kong Racing, as well. I miss that game and it's hub-world layout.

The Shine Sprite makes me think it'll be retro tracks DLC.

I've played this a few times recently, but I don't yet own it. It seems pretty fun, but definitely bewildering at first. I've barely played Mario Kart games since the N64 version, so there's a lot of new stuff.

It's going to be weird playing as Link in a car or on a bike.
I wonder if Zelda and AC themed weapons would be too much. Pitfalls from AC to hide on the track and the hookshot from Zelda to drag you towards whoever you catch with it or reel them back to you to close the gap. |

Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach?
As if three variations of Mario and Peach weren't already enough. |

I am assuming though that the different coloured Yoshi's and Shy Guy's won't be like the various Mario's and Peach's, but will basically be just a case of selecting either Yoshi or Shy Guy and then selecting a colour.
Also, I will add that Dry Bowser looks pretty cool. I get the feeling that this could be the beginning of them slowly introducing characters to the franchise that are outside of the Mario Universe. Maybe we'll see this franchise be pretty much like Smash Bros. but on wheels, in the future. |

Just noticed one of the tracks appears to be from F-Zero.
