Posted March 6, 2014 I am pre-ordering from Nintendo as even if it does arrive late, it's a killer deal. Before I order though, does anyone know what the sizes of the t-shirts are? Usually there's a size guide to tell you if the shirt will fit you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 6, 2014 Better quality pic of the Spiny Shell: Didn't notice the MK8 logo on there before. Loving the intro on the vid. They should definitely use that for all of the MK8 advertising: So funny how you hear Luigi go "Owiee!" After Mario chucks the Spiny. Even though it should have been targeting Yoshi or DK, it hits Luigi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 6, 2014 His year is officially over. Actually apparently its ending either this week or next. Nintendo's not great with calendars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 6, 2014 Actually apparently its ending either this week or next. Nintendo's not great with calendars. No, it really is and they're good with years. They technically started it on March 20th 2013 with the release of Luigi's Mansion 2, and continues on until the "end" of it on March 18th 2014 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 6, 2014 One final Luigi announcement to wrap things up with maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stating a year in March is just weird. And let's face it, they've not done anything with the green turd since December anyway. Figured this PR cringe party was over.

Posted March 6, 2014 Well I've pre-ordered the limited edition at ShopTo so I have both versions pre-ordered but if the price doesn't go down nearer the time then I'll probably cancel and just go with standard, gold member prices at the moment are... Mario Kart 8 - £37.86 Mario Kart 8 Limited Edition - £56.87 So currently that means the price of the Blue Shell is £19.01! I still sort of want it even though it's still a bit of a rip-off. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 6, 2014 The year of Luigi ends and a few weeks later they release NES Remix 2 with a Luigi version of SMB lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) I may have to do what you guys are doing and buy from ShopTo to get the game early and not worry about Nintendo/The Hut sending the limited edition the following week... Normally I wouldn't mind waiting but I've booked days off work so I can blast through the GPs and the last thing I want is to be sat there doing f*** all waiting for the game on my holiday. EDIT: If any of you guys use Quidco, the Nintendo store is listed on their website so you can get cashback from the Limited Edition or any other purchases you make from them Edited March 6, 2014 by f00had Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 7, 2014 Pre-ordered! Cannot wait, that track that springs out of a question mark block looks incredible! The special edition has raised my hype even more. This really does look like game of the year material, there really isn't anything on any other system that looks anywhere near as good as this. I find it strange though that Nintendo did awesome Zelda and Mario Kart special editions but not one for Super Mario 3D World. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 7, 2014 Preordered the T-shirt bundle. It already feels like a major event. I guess the beauty of MK only being released once per console lifespan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
