Mario Kart 8: 200cc vs. 150cc That is something I meant to ask before. On previous videos it looks like you'll need to use the brakes on 200cc. Do people use the brakes on 150cc? I never use them, once in a 1,000 races at least probably and that's just to stop from falling off an edge usually or avoiding an item. Besides being more difficult to control, it will change up your gameplay. Also will this give the cheating fire hoppers an even greater advantage?

Roy was my favourite character too from Melee. While I would like to see Ryu in a way but in a way I don't either. When was the last time we had Street Fighter on a home Nintendo console, not spin-offs? The SNES. They don't give us much respect so I could live without Ryu. It'd be like Snake all over again.

I was going to suggest Cooking Mama but of course there isn't one for the Wii U. And I'm the same as others, can't leave the room without the gamepad having a heart attack.

Mario Kart 8 - DLC Pack 2 Launch Trailer (Wii U)

Baby Park is 7 laps long. The names of the new vehicles are: Bone Rattler (Bike), City Tripper (Bike), Streetle (Kart), P-Wing (Kart).

I bought both packs day 1.

So who thinks they might announce more DLC packs at E3?

Maybe if you posted that a week ago last year they listened. All the tracks look terrific. Ribbon Road and Big Blue being the most exceptional and spectacular. Never played Neo Bowser City but I watched old videos before and I agree with the lads from GameXplain, it's the one dud in the pack and had hoped the rumour of its inclusion weren't true. From 1 to 8 in terms of favourites subject to change of course. Ribbon Road Big Blue Animal Crossing Lingling Metro Baby Park Nature Road Cheese Land Neo Bowser City Edit: Oh and why would you want more stamps? They're beyond useless. No harm I guess but I don't need nor want them.

It was about time, with it being barely over a week from release. Looks real nice and the rumour wasn't wrong after all. Mario Kart 8: Baby Park GCN Head-to-Head Comparison (Wii U vs. GameCube) Music recordings for the new DLC tracks Going to stop posting now. Only seen the main video, didn't notice the hidden spoiler tags. The new track Metro track is called Lingling Metro not Rin Rin Metro. Though that's probably how the Japanese would pronounce it.

I'm the same.

Nintendo should be doing more to save the Wii U. Do something, advertise, price drop, 3rd party exclusives, anything. I really do think the new console will launch next Christmas and for them to just let the Wii U die and be seen to actively do nothing to save it and then expect people to fork out another few hundred pounds on a new console? Nintendo will be in for even greater rude awakenings. They're damaging their brand and reputation.

The price difference was only £50 (£300 versus £350) but when consider the differences under the hoods, the 3D blu ray player, the guarantee of 3rd party support and a long life cycle then £50 doesn't seem like much more to pay. The Wii U was a disaster even before it launched. The list of mistakes was huge, I said before it released that it was probably going to fail. If you were a Sony or Microsoft spy within Nintendo you couldn't have sabotaged the Wii U any worse than they did themselves.

Given how Monolith Soft are releasing packs onto the eShop to reduce loading times in Xenoblade Chronicles X I was thinking that Traveller's Tales could do the same for Lego City Undercover. If there's one Wii U game that needs it more than any other it's this game.

Give it years after launch and Nintendo games are expensive to buy. Fixed.

I'm sorry I posted that link to Smyths now. http://www.smythstoys.com/ie/en-ie/video-games-tablets/c-824/nintendo-amiibo/p-12291/nintendo-amiibo-yoshi-s-woolly-world-series-yoshi-blue/ Strange that I should post it and in less than a couple of hours they've changed their price. They've now gone up to €20. That's put me right off buying the blue one separately. Should have acted sooner, they don't take pre orders online but if I'd gone into the store they would have. Still have the green one as part of the bundle. Even with the price hike they're still cheaper than GAME and Shopto. http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2015/04/those_yoshis_woolly_world_yarn_amiibo_are_up_for_pre-order_in_the_uk_and_theyre_pricey Love that sub headline. They've always got witty tags like that.

What are you doing? You can't say that. This game and it's peripherals are a rip-off. There, happy now?
