  1. Just played through the new tracks. Good job Nintendo. Love some of the little touches on the new tracks too. Of course the main one is Hyrule Circuit and all the Zelda sound effects, rupees and such. I even noticed that the item roulette sound is changed. F-Zero track is brilliant too, for anyone that hasn't noticed, ride over the strips that usually refill your shield (in F-Zero) if you don't have 10 coins.

    And SNES Rainbow Road...still the best RR in the entire series. Fell off twice on my first run. Love it.


  2. News being released that we are getting the full version of the network from November 3rd. Best of all we get the free month too that is happening for new subscribers. And on top of all of that we get it for $9.99. That's dollars not pounds. So will be getting it for around £6.


  3. Played the demo and quite enjoyed it. If I were to buy this, would it be a good idea to get the first one and play that first? Would playing the second game ruin anything or not give me the full story?


  4. confusingly, WWE's site lists it as Thursday nights at midnight so maybe Mondays is a repeat of that.

     

    Yep. I always have the Thursday showing on record. Which I assume is then repeated before Raw the next Monday.

    Easily the best WWE show each week.


  5. I tell thee one of the partners will probably be Sky. And will be a reduced service (aka no PPV's as Sky have the rights to them on Box Office (at £14.99 a month i think). And i doubt it will be £9.99 a month, probably be more.

     

    If Sky get the Network, i urge everyone whom wants it to subsribe to the US version.

     

    I'm a sky customer, but if I have to pay for the reduced network/service on sky and then PPV's on top of that, I will seriously consider getting the US version, or just obtaining the PPV's another way.


  6. Just found out that on the iTunes store, the WWE app shows an in app purchase of "6 month auto renew subscription to WWE" for £39.99, which equals around £6.60 a month. Also people have reported that there is an option to change the adress from a U.S. one to a UK one.

    Things are looking up for us.


  7. I keep checking everywhere too and no luck in any word. I've read many people say that we are getting the version the US gets, so online and all content, including PPV's, then others saying we'll get a cut down version cause Sky have the rights to the PPV's. I guess we can only wait till WWE release something. I would assume there will be some sort of announcement regarding what we will get in the coming RAW and Smackdown shows.


  8. So I actually found a way to make it not so one sided on my part when playing. I set up the vs race so that it is Frantic mode but I do not use any item I pick up, only coins. You can mix it up by selecting a completely random kart setup too. I have found that I can still win, but the races are a lot more tight.

     

     

    The great Blue shell dodge with a mushroom trick.


  9. I got some codes too, been playing the demo a bit and quite enjoy it. Really will be changing the control scheme though. Can't get to grips with it.

     

    Anyway, I have thought of what to do with my spare 3 codes and considered selling them but then I want people who love the game to enjoy it too. it's a demo after all and you shouldn't have to pay for those.

     

    So anyone still looking for a code, PM me and I'll give you one. I have 3 going. I may do first come first served, or pick three random PM's after a few hours depending on the response.

     

    EDIT:

    One code remaining.


  10. Pulled off my first blue shell avoidance with a mushroom today, ever. Such a great feeling. I've saved the replay and when I have some way to record it, I will, save that achievement for ever.

    Anyone know how to make this game harder? I play GP's on frantic item mode, hard CPU 150cc, yet still manage to walk it. Even playing a 16 track GP I manage to win fairly easily.


  11. OK, to anyone else that uploads a lot of highlight videos to Youtube directly from the game.

    Do you find it annoying that you get copyright notices if you have the music on in the replay? I mean, Nintendo are allowing us to upload the video directly from the game to youtube so I don't see why we should have those videos should get labelled with the notice. I know it is not affecting them being viewed but it is annoying, and I get this is probably just an automated thing by youtube. Most the time I try to just have sound effects only anyway.


  12. Being a huge Animal Crossing fan, I love the inclusion of the Villager and Isabelle. Anyone else think that the Villager just fits the style of the game in this image.

    I have ordered the 2 packs and am enjoying the free Mercs and coloured Yoshis and Shy Guys.


  13. If you look through the stamps you should just be able to see which character doesn't have one? Might be quicker than replaying with every character :D

     

    Thanks. And it was quicker, after figuring it out, I just needed Iggy.


  14. I have one stamp to get. This may be what I need to do. I don't' think I have every played as everyone in a GP. Though now i'm just gonna have to go through them all one at a time so I know I get them all.

     

    Been having fun just trying to get some funny/decent screenshots lately too.

  15. Question.

    When on Miiverse I sometimes see posts with a Highlight tag. Where or how is this done? I can't seem to figure it out. Most are usually on screenshots and it is not one I can select from the small list.


  16. I would love to get the network, if however, what people are suggesting does come to light and it's only through Sky, I won't be getting it. I use Virgin broadband and until sky can match their speed, I'll stick with it. Also it needs to be priced decently. £9.99 a month would be great, if it is bumped up to what a normal PPV is on sky (or more) then it's just not worth it.


  17. Is it really just 3 of us using this now, or does the game still randomly display people whenever it feels like it? :indeed:

     

    I am still using it, but I have no idea if anyone shows up in my game. I do have someone on one of the climbing challenges at the moment though.


  18. I saw this yesterday too, loved it. I thought the way they made the spiders talk, was very well done, as many times in films, talking animals just don't come across well.

    Smaug was done pretty much perfectly, great design, great voice and that fire which he breaths was amazing, the way you saw it build up from inside him.

    Great build up to the end of the film too, really was the perfect place to stop it, as it had me and my friend both shout out "noooooo".

    I can't wait for the final part next year.
