Now you can brake while drifting in Mario Kart so 200cc is actually playable, opinions?

Did I see Gold Mario at 0:50? Could've gotten actual unique characters like Pauline's first appearance in the Kart series, but nope. We needed another Mario.

>they could've modeled an entire new character, animate it and record voice lines on extra time instead of retexturing old characters in the spare time
that's not how development works

We have Tanooki Mario, Mario, Baby Mario, and Metal Mario. We didn't need another one.

They had an entire development cycle to port a fucking game with a handful of extras, don't excuse laziness

Why couldn't things like 2 items at once be a patch for the Wii U version? Or 200cc time trials?

I'm bretty sure Gold Mario is just a skin for Metal Mario, since it wasn't even introduced as a new character.

Reminder if you don't main Gold Mario then you aren't a real baller.

>metals in 8
>ever
They're shit in every game mode. At least we have Dry Bones now.

Why couldn't all of this be a DLC pack 3? It doesn't seem like it would require too much space in order to do this.

I just bought this game on WiiU less than a year ago. Why the fuck would I buy it again?

>Now you can brake while drifting in Mario Kart
But you could do that already

>No Block Fort

Money, obviously. Why would they let you have the content for $10 when they could make you buy the entire game again, plus a system at least partially for it?

I'm less annoyed they didn't include this as another dlc pack for the Wii U, but they're releasing this in place of a new Mario Kart. We would get a new one with the release of every new console and handheld since the SNES, why stop now?

You could brake and it was already playable, casuals shouldn't post threads.

Do you seriously think they won't make another MK for Switch? MK 9 is a done deal.

WOW MORE NEO NINTENDO GARBAGE
SOME OF THE MOST FUN SHIT FALLING OFF THE STAGE BECAUSE YOUR A GOD DAMN RETARD IS GONE THANKS TO NEO NINTENDO

WHERE IS THE INFINITE SHELL BOUNCES
THE ATTACKS THAT LAUNCH YOU IN THE AIR AND ALLOW FOR ENEMIES TO CATCH YOU
WHERE IS THE STARS AND RARE ITEMS IN FIRST PLACE
THE OBSTACLES THAT HTI YOU AND YOU FLY UP FOR 5 SECONDS SO ENEMIES CAN GO PAST YOU SO YOU CAN ACTUALLY TRY TO GET PAST THEM
WHERE IS THE NPC THAT IS ALWAYS IN FRONT OF YOU THAT YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO CATCH UP TO YOU
WHERE IS THE DIFFICULT LEVELS LIKE PIC RELATED
WHY IS 200CC 2X AS SLOW AS 150 CC IN MK64
WHERE IS THE FUN?
THERE IS NONE?

I thought you always could

I'm not so sure on that, it feels like they'll be treating this as the Switch's Mario Kart and 9 won't be made for it. I hope I'm wrong though.

Why waste the money and dev time on a whole new game when they can port the old one and keep it alive with DLC?

>Mute City at 3:40


what does this mean

mute city and big blue are DLC tracks for MK8

That's all you fuckers get from F-ZERO.

Enjoy the closest thing you'll get to a new F-ZERO in an entire decade.

You underestimate Nintendo, why make DLC when they can release an identical game with new tracks for $60.

youtube.com/watch?v=ixRUMwm43cA

why remake a song this fucking insane if its only gonna be for dlc

>that sexophone

People whine about F-Zero all the time but didn't it sell like shit?

>Enjoy the closest thing you'll get to a new F-ZERO in an entire decade.
>in an entire decade
Why so optimistic, user?

The last F-ZERO game was made in 2004, this dlc was made a decade later. Thus the statement.

Redout?

Ballistic NG?

For Smash obviously, try to keep up.

You forgot
>green mario
>baby green mario
>jew mario
>purple mario

>They added Gold Mario
>Not Yellow Gold Wario

WHY?

>now you can *most basic car handling necessity* in Mario kart
>Mario kart Is supposed to be a racing game.

Why did I think this game would be decent from the start?
I mean its such a basic thing how did they not include it from the start?

>Unironically thinking Red Gold and White Gold Mario won't happen before that.

I think you're too old for video games, bud

They did, see

It's not a racing game, it's a "kart game."

What normal racing game has mechanics like power ups and things like that?

Which new Mario do you guys want to see in the new Mario game? Shadow Mario? Bee Mario? Fire Mario? Cloud Mario? Peach Mario?

The crew kinda has those.
Midnight club on the ps2 had power ups and such.
That's all I can remember without looking shit up.

This was hoping Block Fort would have return as a battle mode stage.

>Baby Rosalina
They actually did it, the mad men.

Only way I'm getting this at launch along with a Switch is if there's an E-shop discount for those who bought both DLC on the Wii-U version.

But Nintendo's to intelligence to do something like that, so guess I'll wait till E3 or Black Friday or something

What's so wrong with that? It's a pretty evergreen mindset and guarantees the game will never fall out of relevancy or lose its value over time. It's a bountiful experience that can only get bigger, and to try and top that with a Mario Kart 9 would be an incredibly tall order, especially so soon.

>no baby pink gold peach

SOILED IT!

Gold mario is mario skin you unlock by getting 3 stars on all 200cc cups, a reveal trailer somewhere showed it

Rather than trying to top Mario Kart 8, maybe they could do a sequel to Double Dash. It's a thing many people would love to see and there's plenty of opportunity to add new things to the doubles mechanic.

...

The characters sit in the karts and vehicles, in some cases, you need only animate their upper torso.

"You already have a racing series, there's no need for another."
-Tanabe

Throwing items
Doing tricks
Victory/losing animations
certain bike/atv differences

Not quite that simple

That sounds unlikely, probably just getting gold cups is enough, very few people could even get all gold cups in 200cc so they wouldn't waste time showing a character that hard to unlock.

I hope its 3 stars, I got it easily on WIIU

You a casual or something? Pink gold peach was in the second fastest speed tier. She was the only character I played and I did great with her always.

Actually, it is. You're not making a Smash character, you're just making an avatar with some animations here and there. It's much simpler than it is, they just don't care to use characters they didn't make or they just don't use them. Even an amateur can make those examples stated.

PGP and Metal mario(occasionally) are the only heavy weights I willing use often. Medium size and small size characters will always be the best in my heart.

2:23

retarded sax didn't take a breath fast enough pretty much ruining like 2 measures before he can catch up

Any fire-hoppers here?

>mario kart
>white knuckle racing
laffin

>early days where at least 6 or more rosalina in a room at times.
>now it's just morton/wario/bowser/drybowser in blue falcons/streetles

Why did character variety have to fall off a fucking cliff?

hey, not my fault if my favorite character is a heavy weight.

I still go back to Double Dash for that very feature. Mixing up characters and having their own unique items is what makes that game enjoyable to this day. I would kill for a proper successor to this.

Peach is really cute in that artstyle.

Variety is way higher in 200cc.

I mean that's fair if it is. Just saying I genunely can see that many players online being a fan of morton and by extension metal mario(7) funky and daisy(wii)

We all saw how daisy usuage dropped liked a rock when she didn't have some of the best stats after wii...poor girl

>pauline

Just give it up man.

>metal baby dr mario

>Woah this renegade battle looks cool
>and bob-omb battle oh shit
>PLUS SHINE THIEF THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING
>only six total battle tracks
They better include more in the DLC.

8*

>Choosing anything besides a unconfident man or Villager

Plebian taste, the lot of them.

>heavies using 4.25 speed bikes with 4 acceleration.

So much fun! How did Nintendo think giving the heavies better speed/acceleration combos than light weights was a good idea will forever elude me.

They made it where heavy weights could have good speed and acceleration, but light weights could never get better than average speed at the cost to acceleration. Before 200cc you could go through any turn at max speed regardless of handling stat. It should have been obvious to Nintendo that people would choose the characters that outclass others in every way possible.

You could already do that retard.

>no block fort

I know...all too well. It genuinely bugs the heck out of me how they fucked up after they nearly perfected mario kart 7 balance wise outside of monster tires being broken as fuck.

So.
When can we expect the DLC to be announced for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe?

>Steering assist

>kass

You know I'm cool with this. Throw in wiggler, honey queen, diddy, kamek and hammer bro

>Honey Queen
Did anyone unironically like playing her in 7? I always play as Waluigi and it's downright sinful she managed to get in but not him.

It seems you aren't able to read the title of the series...

>bought all the DLC for MK8
>hey buy it again for full price goy

Why the fuck are you asking us like that's not a stupid question? You wouldn't you retard.

>tfw all your favorite characters are too light to be usable
>the slightest touch from a heavier character sends them flying into a wall
I never hated her since she was the first and only "thicc" female heavy weight. But yeah not at the cost of waluigi being mia. I'd love to see how she rides a bike desu

>funky kong never ever

>unironically wanting funky back
It's like many forgot how fucking obnoxious it was listening to a room full of him and daisy screaming every 5 seconds was.

>PISHHHAAAAAAA! OLOLOLOLE! AHHAHHHHAAAA
>WOOOOAAAAHHHHH! WOAH WOAH WOAHHHH! OH WOAH WOAH!!!!

Did DK just fucking dab at 2:37

jesus christ my sides, just remembered that

If he can fit in a cart. He'd definitely be heavyweight.

just balance him so he isn't too OP
I just want to play with the hottest character

DK did that in the original game...he fucking did it years ago in mario kart wii

wait, was there purple sparks before when drifting?

nintendo think they slick

>only 8 Battle Mode track

Mario Kart Wii had 10, thats pretty lazy here desu.

that's the new brake drift

Is it in 1080p now, at least?

DS had mission mode and Double Dash had character specific items. What else you gonna bitch about?

Obviously I wouldn't hate his inclusion since that'd be petey as heck. Every character is liked by someone out there even if the majority bitches about them

People think it's a new 3rd tier dirft boost
Or this but that seems very unlikely.

...

>Have Funky Kong return
>Candy Kong as his partner if the doubles mechanic returns
Make it happen.
