MATtheHAT Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Why do you make it out like 'aw man, I can't snake.. I'm gonna lose now' like the game has nothing else that sets the good players apart from the less good. If you're good enough, you should still be able to win without having to snake the arse out of every track.. so what's your problem.. is snaking all you've got? If anything, snaking gives the poor players a chance to compete with the good racers.. so just stuff you in general.. I am not 'making anything out', nor have I 'got a problem'. I simply stated that i hope they leave snaking in, then you come on all 'stuff you', so who has the problem? But, meh, even if there was no snaking it would still be an awesome game. And, to be honest, I think the battle mode will be where its at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Those rumour things were interesting. Didnt like the idea of karts being able to get diff items than bikes etc. Bob-omb is a good thing, most rewarding weapon when it works. Bullet Bill replaces chomp like it did in DS. I want chars to have specials but probs not going to happen. I dont mind if brawl is delayed too much, as long as Boo is playable lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendohnut Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 http://videos.sapo.pt/tQOOYV3Kot5oBf4nIf33 have you already seen this trailer? That was really interesting, thanks djamb! It showed a lot more gameplay, and also how long a powerslide will be. Looks good in motion too, I'm very excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khilafah Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 pre-ordered the japanese game. Just hope it is much better than Double Dash as I think that game sucked hard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe nothing, or maybe it's slightly different from other weapons? He doesn't seem to have any item up to that point. And yeah, it looks absolutely fantastic, I want it now!

From the IGN hands on A new power-up popped up during our playtest: a POW block that will hover over your players's head, and you'll need to jump three times in a specific rhythm to get rid of it…or you'll spin out. We're told of a new power-up that didn't show up during our play session: a cloud that'll give your player a boost of speed for as long as you hold it, but it has the side-effect of zapping your kart with lightning which will shrink your kart if you hold onto it for too long. It's an item that can be passed from kart to kart by bumping into your competition, almost like a shrinking hot potato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendohnut Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Yeah I read that a couple of days ago, but completely forgot about it! So basically someone was using the POW block. I didn't realise that it appeared over everyone's head. Ooops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowV7 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I got an e-mail about it the day the date was announced so that would make it Wednesday I want the cap dammit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekunando Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I don't have an image as that would have involved getting my phone out and taking a snap However, it was a simple navy baseball cap with the MarioKart Wii logo on the front.. it would be ok to have, but maybe not at the the price it would cost me.. I'll maybe try to blag it in GAME some day and try to get one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
